      Does anyone use a Protectant on rough out Wescos? Like nano spray for example. I’m thinking more about stain prevention than water penetration. Thoughts? @Giles Did you get your romeos yet??

      Maybe so. Maybe not

            Not sure if a traditional suede brush would be helpful/effective on roughout.

              I used to give my smoke jumpers a squirt when I used them for dog walking in the mountains but quickly stopped giving a fekk. Don’t bother now, not even with my burlap’s. A suede brush like @Jett129 mentions is a good idea. Suede erasers are ok too, if you really want to keep them as new as possible.

              I’d work at not caring. These shoes/boots are made to last and rough out tolerates a good kicking. It looks great with wear, and that includes stains.

                Right on. Thanks @neph93 @Jett129 just brushed em when I got home tonight. Restaurant work is dirty stuff.

                  I’d be more worried about restaurant grease than dirt. I haven’t worn my roughout Boss while riding for that reason.

                      My family & I are relocating to France for a year (on the Eastern side of Paris, in Val-de-Marne, where I'm from). The not so fun part is that I need to deal with the estate of my parents. The good part is that my son will have the experience to live in the house I grew up in and go to the same school I went to. Hopefully, he'll come out of it fully bilingual.

                            Damn, time flies! Just found these roughly four years old fabric cut-offs:
