    9060 @ 150 miles or 4 weeks. Have not been wearing them daily due to ice and salt.

    Not sure about them yet. Quality is 1-2 notches below GS. But these seem to be better made than recent generations of IRs. Nice leather midsole. Break in fast.

    Now at 8 weeks. I Walk a lot ™️

        @seawolf love that the leather is so abraded and almost has a brown teacore effect going.

        In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

                After always thinking that Moc Toes were simply not for me, I've now ventured into the 877 after having good experiences with the 1907...

                                    The hardware on my boots is heavily oxidised. Do you have any tipps on how to clean that?

                                      It's patina. On the contrary, it's cool!

                                        Personal advice: don't

                                        Partly because @Walery-Smirnoff is correct, it's part of the patina of your boots

                                        Partly because of the difficulty of doing so without adversely effecting and/or staining the surrounding leather of the boot. Oxidisation is by its very nature an irreversible chemical process.

                                        You're either looking at a polish like Brasso or similar, which will be difficult to apply to small hardware with the vigorousness needed to remove this type of oxidisation without also getting on/in the leather in the local area

                                        You could look at chemical solutions but this is likely to be even worse for the above and may even permanently damage the nearby leather

                                        Or you could look at some of the home grown solutions like baking soda/lemon juice or vinegar/salt but again, i don't think your walking away without at least some staining - but other users may have more experience on these than i do

                                          Ross is spot on here. I'd brush them to remove any loose oxidisation and leave it at that. It's what I do on my RWs.
