After a lot of deliberation, brass…...

That's the choice I would have made as well… although Vintage Nickel would look sick as well. I bet the purple will crease and discolor is an awesome way - stoked to see them!

Did not manage to get a photo today, will try tomorrow…

@Giles:

It's a very deep purple 

Code name: Highway Stars

Goddamit…. I was going through Deep Purple track names to find the right one last night, and didn’t get that far before I got distracted. Perfection.

I also feel like brass was the right choice. Nickel on purple might have come across a little too Slade/T-Rex/Space Cowboy.

So here we go…...

WOW,Fucking jaw dropping! Thanks!

[Giles]

I've just given it some shit seen what it looks like with some stress….

[Jett129]

Do you have a potential ETA on the boots?

[Dmart]

That’s nice Giles! They will look great. You have the full build?

[Appfaff]

The wear looks not DISSIMILAR to the navy CXL you guys specced on the forum service boots with Viberg a decade ago… my pair has nearly White creases with wear in between oils, and goes back to saturated state when it drinks a bit of boot or mink oil.

You will love them. and brass was the right choice with that shade!

If I like them, they will be offered as a 20th Anny build…..

Makes no difference if I have 9 or 10 pairs of Engineers

That is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever read.

Haha. I just placed the order for the quick Striker SS Wesco collab. I love that olive, but purple (insert heart smiley here)

[Dmart]

And just received an email, another 40 weeks for the Quick Striker I hope they are worth but at the same time have no doubt…

They are indeed. I love the olive waxed flesh and longer straps. They will look great a year into wearing them.
Oh and thanks for the IKEA shoe storage tip. I checked them yesterday and they are great for our purpose especially since our walk in closet consists of doorless PAX. In the bigger ones I can fit 8 pairs (front and back).
