      That’s quite a development in the colour. I love it. Makes me reconsider the British tan. What sort of treatment gave they had @Alex ?

            "How to make British Tan retain its original characteristics" has been debated quite exhaustively so it's refreshing to see the evo being met with positivity.

              Has it? On here? That seems like a non-starter to me and at odds with the reality of owning and using a pair of proper boots.

              On an entirely subjective level I preferred the richer, darker colour of the OG brown domain and while the British Tan looked more or less appealing depending on the lighting of the pics, this colour and texture evolution is just plain sexy.

                Great boots. Are they available in black as well?

                  They are if you order them as a custom build. If you’re in Europe (and you’re in Deutschland no?), then Giles or Alex can help you out.

                        Nope not here and not in the context of Wescos. BT is CXL, with its pluses and minuses, and I agree that Alex's pair shows that CXL (at least in BT) can look good when put through its paces.

                          I have one pair of boots with CXL and I always assumed that kicking the shit out of it was a good idea as it’s going to get messy if you look at it wrong anyway. Go figure.

                            I bet you rip your band-aids off lightning fast as well, instead of going through the slow-pull ritual of agony. ::)

                              I really do. Why would you not?

                                    Beautiful boots. I'm thinking about replacing a pair of worn out Red Wing Iron Rangers.  Wonder how these would compare to Red Wings and John Lofgren boots. Also clueless on how to size these boots. I'm a size 10 D in Red Wing Heritage boots, 10 D in Lofgren Engineers boots and 9.5 in Lofgren Combat boots. Any and all advise would be greatly appreciated.

                                      I suspect 10D in these too.
