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

for those that are unaware the Yuketen (and Yuki Matsuda's clothing line Monitaly) brand is part of MEG Company Inc

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...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! -
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.

^ didnt bother to make my jeans sit properly on it, but you get the gist
-
they're dark so if they do bleed i haven't noticed. that and i haven't worn NEW raw denim on them so… no bleeding problems yet!
i've yet to dare wear raw denim with my yuketen moccs tho

Got the boots through today. First impressions…unbelievable quality...much better than anything i've owned before...Only problem is the sizing. I sized down a half size and shouldn't have. They're on their way back to The Bureau as we speak. Going TTS. So if you're thinking of going for a pair of Yuketen Double Wool Hunt Boots...GO TTS! By the way, these look SO much better in the flesh than in photos. Beautiful chunky mother hens! Not regretting spending all that cash for things of such quality and beauty. Guess that's what we all look for in our gear.
