I’ve noticed that I can’t edit thread titles for some reason. Maybe it’s a Tapatalk problem?

I’ve seen that before. No idea why it happens, some form of oxidisation. These are a cheap and effective way of cleaning silver:

Don't worry about it, it's wabi sabi.
While I couldn’t agree more and I’m all about wabi sabi…
I was just a bit worried as I didn’t see this on any of my other silver items before. I am used to silver turning black but this had me a bit confused...

X - post from repairs & modifications
Jules has a pair of Viberg engineers shown on LHS with chrome hardware that she would love to replace with brass hardware as shown on my IHTB-BOBRN on RHS. Does anyone know where hardware can be replaced on engineer boots? @Giles could IHUK replace hardware on Jules' boots?
-
No, a cobbler needs to do that
I can see why a cobbler need to replace the hardware as it looks like a tricky job however, at this point, I can't find any brass hardware to replace the chrome with so Jules' boots will be staying as is

I have a pair of White's boots that are mismatched (left foot F width, right foot FF width). Even though they are probably the widest width you can get, my right pinky toe seems to always rub/touch the side of the boots in the front section. I've had different boots/shoes as well that do the same thing…
Any idea why this happens and how to fix it?

Yeah, I should have the right size actually. I've been recommended it by Baker's in the USA after sending in the hard copies of my foot tracings.

well i’m a fat ass and i ripped my belt loops pulling up my pants.
there are holes where they were sewn. recommendations?
-
Get some fabric and sew it on the reverse of the hole, it just needs to be large enough to breach the gap. Then sew the belt loop back on.
thanks G.

@den1mhead you could try Felix Jouanneau. He's a London bootmaker who used to do rebuilds, I don't know if he still does. His last Instagram post said that he'd stopped due to Covid.
