      I did notice a lot of price differences between the stores and some of them grossly overpriced.
      The trouble with overseas orders is that i always have to pay custom fees these days, and that used to be different, a year or 2 ago most packages slipped by them.
      And that makes them expensive, buying from overseas i always have to calculate about 35 to 40% extra on fees… while they also charge me taxes in the country of origin, so i pay double.

      Still contemplating on the main guide boot or the hunting boot, those crepe soles looks so good, but i'm affraid i'll find them crap soles when walking in them.
      Unfortunately no chance on trying them out...

            I think Mich is in the Netherlands but will let him confirm.

            Shit…  now I'm between the Hunting Boots or Hunting Sole Chukka and I'm more than likely going to snag those suede Angler Mocs...

            The irony is that these are made less than 60 miles from where I live but I have to buy them from another continent.

              Yep, the Netherlands it is!  😉

              It's also such a shame most retailers only stock whole sizes, like half sized people don't exist  😎

                  that's crazy! is there nowhere closer? what about direct?

                      Opening Ceremony in LA has them but not the size/models I want.  Same for Barney's.  I emailed them about direct sale but I highly doubt it.

                          Hey M!ch! Long time no speak. I bought the ALD Frontier Jeanspaleis Limitée off you some time back through Mynudies (unworn as yet but still like the cut). Weird how we all seem to congregate here! I've just ordered some crepe sole hunt boots. Will let you know how they hold up under the stress of walking 😛

                            I most certainly remember that my friend! Nice to see you around these parts  😉
                            I wasn't sure if you were the same bertoni but at least now i know for sure.
                            I'm very curious about your experiences with the crepe sole of the hunt boots!

                                  well at least it will be a well dressed pished up tart in that case  😃

                                    😉 It could be comical. Will never hear the end of it from the wife….You spent all that cash to walk like a twat?!

                                      crepe soles are rather squishy and feel like you're walking on thick carpet all the time. at least on my hunt boots

                                          it feels weird at first – felt i was off balance when i actually wasn't?

                                          i'd say crepe soles if you want something really unique and amazing -- non crepe if you want something that you can wear with everything?

                                          that being said, contrast crepe in the brown boots probably look better than my black on black. i can provide my own pics if you're interested.

                                            Always interested in some pics of these amazing shoes. I must admit I like the contrast. But the black look great. Do you have shoes or boots?
