      Thanks!
      A small brush and my hands. The warmth of my hands helped the wax to melt into the leather, Obenaufs is without harmful chemicals, so you can do it just with your hands 🙂 Pretty nice stuff!
      The black RO was pretty stiff, the wax smoothed it up a lot, and now its pretty comfy, the boots fit better from day to day.

        JCM, Bret & co, White's won't work with supplied buckles, other leathers fine as long as they are workable but no other buckles as yet, explained the interest from leisure wearer forum member perspective but true to form, they don't give a flying fireman! Going to get a stock anyway, they're nice.

          Buckles are pretty easy to replace. Any cobbler can do it.

            Jamie thx for the update. Guess if we don't like it we can go to their competition (eg Wesco or Nicks)… Such a smart business decision on their end. Oh well.

            BTW You settle on any new stock boots? Eg a c461 boot?

              The straps on the nomads are wider than most engineers, not sure if most would fit.

                Hi Bret, this is true. I admire companies that stick to what they do well but being open to a few favoured mods could open things up for them. As we know though they don't feel the need or want to.

                Got a few new styles including the 461 and those crazy curved heels coming in a week or so. Cheers mate.

                          Some of you may have seen these on another board, but here are my brand new SJs, along with very old Chippewas and not so old OSB Trench boots:

                              Thanks Rafa.  Good to hear from you…  I hope you are well, and that your horsehide Vibergs are well too (which I still sometimes like to think of as MY horsehide Vibergs!).

                                    Nevermind. Great boots. The first ones could be something for me.

                                          ^^ Very cool.  Nice to see the brown dress on Bounty Hunters for a change rather than just SDs.  Looks great.

                                            My interest in White's Begins to re-ignite. Might be posting some stupiud questions the next days…. Can anybody compare the black leathers in Terms of weight & quality? I'm looking for a heavyweight hide, preferably not too shiny or structured, so Bullhide is ruled out.
