      @Jestre:

      Not too sure about the difference @Ragehaver.  I believe 'harvest' was just what they named that particular color/hue of leather.  The rough-out on mine seems very similar to what you linked so I wouldn't worry about it too much if it looks good to ya.

      Agreed. I ordered some leather samples so hopefully I'll be able to sort it out.

        Andi: Stellar work!! When CXL looks it's best.

        @Ragehaver distressed rough out is lighter and harvest RO is slightly darker and has more of an orangey browny tint to it.

        Hope that helps.

                    Nice boots! -
                    but the leather soles & the heels are very sensitive and slippery … rather suboptimal for boots.  :-\

                      MY very first pair of SD's had leather soles and cuban heels and gripped surprisingly well. You'll be fine and the boots look great, congrats.

                        I had pure leather soles on my Wolverine 1000 mile Boots - after ca. 3 months, I had enough and visit a cobbler for an 'update'  😉  ….. but whatever - the White's are great!  🙂

                          I have gone A over T a few times on leather soled shoes. My Dad used to score his with a knife until they were worn in and less slippy. I take mine to the cobblers too @Finkster saves a potentially  bruised bum and if your slip takes place in public a battered ego! [emoji57]

                              Having recently acquired the Armageddon boots I have started the process of dying them. The pictures show the boots very early in the dying process and the colour was quite a shock to me. I am hoping to achieve an oxblood colour with one more coat of dye and then with the application of oxblood polish.

                              Original boots;

                              Early stage in the dying process;

                                  Why choose single or double midsole? Purely aesthetic preference or… there must be a practical reason as well, no?

                                      Continuation from my previous post and the dying process of my Armageddon boots is complete.
                                      Cheers to @Megatron1505 and @nicecrackaction.

                                      @NorthernVictory : Midsole - Single, Double, or Triple? The thicker the midsole the greater the protection (stepping on a nail) and for their supposed added durability. There's also an aesthetic element, as some people think a taller boot should have a thicker midsole. There is also the added height provided by the additional midsole. Finally, the Japanese market often want the thickest midsole available and when Mega acquired these particular boots I understand he was into the Japanese look.
