      These are supposed to be good too: http://www.wolverine.com/us/1000mile/

      Reviving an old thread here.

      I've been reading some good things about Wolverines, I really like the look of the 1000 mile originals in cordovan. Hectic, did you get a pair in the end, I can't seem to find a UK retailer?

              Beats, bear & curry, Yes!!  😃  😃  on the boots it depends on when the 55 cut drops, the white chambray + I'm currently specing up a pair of OOE's, its all juggling.

                  Simon - see you soon - and you know what I was just thinking - the 634sr are almost a 55 cut ..should work fine with heavy boots…

                    You know what Beats I was thinking the same thing + I've wanted a pair of SR's from first seeing them. Thing is I'm only going to get one or the other (at least for now), after seeing that 18oz denim, I really need some, I'm not sure what to do  :-\

                            I'm going to read back through this thread to see if there are any but I'm looking for some brogue boot suggestions.  Something like the Grenson Sharp (which I may go with once I figure out sizing).  Most of the Tricker's I've seen are triple soled which is a bit much for me but I haven't seen them all.  I keep an eye Leather Soul HI but they don't have anything right now and I'm going to search around some more but if anyone has a quick suggestion it'd be appreciated.

                              I can only account for Grenson making very high quality gear - at least the pair I have. After almost 2 years they still look like new…

                                Thanks, Seul.  I snagged a pair of Sharps, looking forward to getting 'em…

                                  I've had a pair of Grenson Bleasdale's (the non-brogues) for nearly ten years, had them re-soled by Genson twice and still love wearing them.  Easily the best boots I've ever bought.

                                  Having said that, I love Blundstone boots for everyday wear.  I've just bought new pair of 550's and they're just as good as the first pair, despite now being made in Thailand (which was a real blow to find out, but I'm addicted to them).

                                      Mibbes a bit late on helping out guys but if you're interested in the 1000 milers (outstanding boots in the horween chromexel - I'll post a pic of my own shortly) then I know 2 sites the sell them:

                                      Cultizm in Germany (but ship very fast) and Plumsoles in UK

                                      http://www.plumsoles.co.uk/
                                      http://www.cultizm.com/

                                      Watch out for sizing - I'm a standard UK9 and wear UK8s for these . . . think this is similar to a few other US boots

                                          These are so beautiful… Wondering whether I could still find these somewhere, and what they cost (ballpark)...
