                Splendid looking boots @Chris . Never owned Trickers but I’ll look them up after seeing your pair in that color.

                The journey is the objective.

                      Lovely looking boots. I like the toe profile a lot. Nice mix of vintage and mid-century.

                          Thanks! I took my time but if I focused, I could have probably done it in a week and a hal to 2 weeks.

                                          My newest boots:

                                          After reading the review from Jake (https://almostvintagestyle.com/2018/05/02/moto-leather-lace-up-boots-review/) and some advice from him I decided to order a pair of boots from a company I haven't heard before:
                                          Moto / Motor from Japan.

                                          The boots are really heavy, really nice and just started the break in process. These are my best made boots so far.
