Show us your boots

Might have been asked but has anyone had dealings, bought from kreosote? There’s a list / signup for his engineers and I’m tempted budget isn’t but it’s a 42 month wait so I liken it to paying off a car

@Brian I almost got on the waitlist back when it was about 15 months. My then fiancé wanted to buy me a pair of boots as an engagement gift. At the time I wasn’t in love with his designs. Went with a Wesco build instead. Just got a pair of Viberg 310s. My now wife is like, those look an awful lot like those Kreosote Nail Shanks…strange how tastes change. That 15 months would have long passed at this point.

@Mizmazzle thanks for that
The wait time is crazy long but after seeing what couple of videos there are out there on him I have been pretty amazed by the work
My down the rabbit hole of watching handmade shoes / boots on YouTube has become an almost nightly watch it’s mesmerising watching how it’s done

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot You own the same, don't you? I couldn't really picture myself in green shows, but seeing your pictures of them helped me push myself off the cliff!

[Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot]

@tody Love them to bits…. I went in the shop to try on black tea core of the same, but my heart skipped a beat when I saw these in person

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot Congratulations! Have mine for a few weeks now, and only excessive indigo transfer keeps me from wearing them daily. Super comfortable, and finally a last that is wide enough for my feet. I could probably get away with half a size down though, but super happy otherwise. Only issue I have is that the rough underside of the uppermost three metal hook eyelets are leaving marks on the gussett/tongue and have rubbed through the stitching on one side. Tried to sand them smooth a bit, and now taped some duck-tape on. Perhaps something that resolves itself without an issue, but a tiny bit irritating given the price of the boots.
Enjoy!
