@Llew81 holy crap! These are amazing!!
-
@Tobi I've only just got them but they are seriously comfortable too already.. fully lined with a poron insole and the tongue also has padding to it. The Kudu leather i gave them to use is also really quite soft, from how they feel already I don't envisage any real break in issues either.. they truly are stunning..
There are proper pics up of them on their Instagram account, but I can't seem to link it here. Can get there through their website easily enough though link text

White's is my favorite boot company currently. These Loggers get a lot of wear in winter when it's snowing and raining. The waxed flesh and welt are super water resistant.

Woodlore has a site wide 25% off sale for a few days - just snagged a couple more cedar boot trees for my newer additions. American made, I’m a fan

JLF Boots that I'm fond of. I would like to know how I could clean those black dark spots which is the result of Diesel spilling over. Suggestions?
-
@the246guy You might be able to pull some the diesel fuel out with a paste made with baking soda and water. Apply it to the areas and rub in and then wipe off with a damp rag. I got some brake fluid on a pair of boots and this helped some. It probably would be a good idea to condition the boots after this. Or you could embrace the wabi sabi.
-
@the246guy Saddle soap might help as well. Just make sure to condition after using saddle soap.

If those are your working boots I would just leave them be and embrace the story of hard work. If they're not your working boot you shouldn't have worn them while doing dirty deeds. I would just turn them into work boots and ride it out! They look good when worn hard.

@jfox1980 Those are my office boots. I was doing the regular chore of fuelling my car. I did not pay attention to the fuel pipe not being inserted fully which resulted in few drops of Diesel spill over my boots.and on my 634 SBG which I will wash. Those JLF boots are my favorites as they are super comfortable and look classy with IH denim, so a bit disappointed with myself on what happened due to my carelessness.
I'm sure I will get them clean!

@brian how goes the Imperium break-in? Did you size down much for the engineer? I have a pair from them that fit like an 11 in length but I've got so much volume left after my foot is in. I got 2 leather insoles in them ATM lol

@CosmoSix5 slowly it’s been baking here recently so not had much chance to wear them
They are softening up though, I just measured my feet and he made them so size wise I’m not sure I think they are an 8.5 from our discussion -
Grailed pickup. Viberg is one of the few brands I will pick up secondhand. Pretty cool 3Sixteen make up from several years back.
