Show us your boots

@popvulture Nice 1, I’m pretty pleased with these but was just thinking it would have been worth the wait time to get them made to measure rather than a stock size, my underdogs have a noticeably better fit.
If getting made to measure ones this is the make up I would have gone for so I was pleased that Brian was willing to customise the heel for me, pretty decent of him I thought.
Enjoy your new boots!

@pechelman Im having tech issues. Hopefully these upload correctly this time.
Check your DM’s sent you some thoughts I have.Nothing but love for Toscanello, but I ADORE the brown Horween CXL. Can’t go wrong with either.
-
Thanks @Autorotate !
Curious as to what is it about the CXL you like so much more. Just the color or something to do with it being less stiff than the horsehide, or ?

@pechelman
The leathers are very similar. I like the brown color/tone better. More compatible with the colors in my wardrobe.
And for me it’s a shame I can’t try these things on in a showroom. There’s no substitute for wearing them with your favorite jeans/pants. My mind’s eye is so often “off” when picking colors.
I also have black, and it’s worth mentioning that the quality control from each boot to the next is perfect. They all fit the same, break in the same… just a superior piece of lifetime footwear. -
A little teaser

@Anesthetist Stop being a tease and whip it out so that we can all look at it…

These are the RDT Coupen Mid Cut in Italian teacore horse. I wanted a shoe that’s wear like a boot but be more comfortable and lighter. This pair hits the nail on the head and I think have a potential to be on my feet for a very long time.
I wish I could somehow send the lovely smell they have. It immediately took me back to ca 1996 or so when I tied up my first pair of Docs. Pure heaven 🥺

@Anesthetist dig those man! I’ve never heard of RDT before.
-
@Anesthetist beautiful boots right down to the hairy laces.
-
@Anesthetist love those!
-
Love RDTs! Very comfortable and roomy, and I’ve been nothing but pleased with the quality of my Caspers.

@Anesthetist how did you size for these? I’ve read sizing down anywhere from 1-2 full sizes. I’m interested in their Chelsea and I think their boots all size similarly.
