just waiting on my boots from IH Germany: Wesco Two-Tone Custom Morrisons in Natural Horsehide with Burlap shafts.
Such a cool pair! Keep looking at these at IH Germany site.
@indigo_fades Very nice! What's the leather?

I like the idea of these competitions, and enjoy seeing the results, but I just don't wear my boots quickly enough to bother entering.
That's where I'm at as well. Would take me years to get anywhere close.
(Have really been enjoying the Indigo Invitational though, even at my slow pace). -
Forgot to answer that second part about wear, thanks for commenting on that …I’m on residential construction sites all day long through the week so my boots are going to get pretty beat up and patina’d regardless.
All my other boots that I don’t wear to work I keep pretty pristine
I played the “If they are still there” game for weeks looking at the IH Germany site. I finally gave in last Friday.

@northsouthdenimguy
I play that game as well…

@northsouthdenimguy ...I keep telling myself that I'm giving everyone else a fair chance to grab one...secretly kicking myself for when they do and I miss out. So yes, is that a win or a loss...
...and the flip side is when I do secure a purchase and hoping that the delivery isn't at the same time my wife answers the door.
-
I definitely get that, same thing goes through my head especially if I already have something similar…
Yeah, this week is not been a good week for my wife. It’s been fantastic for me though.

All right, ready to go…

Oh, and a I

My second Harker Works belt and key fob. He is currently a Cumming resident.

I’ve never done a comp before. Never really grabbed my attention. But I’m on a spending freeze for the foreseeable future so thought this could be a fun way to stay focused on enjoying what I’ve got!
Entering the “Pre-worn” category. My lightly worn Lofgren badass gringos
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...
-
Bingo on the gringos. Glad you’re going to give those a run!
-
I was going to enter with my new stock Wesco boots, but they got “lost” in the post this side of the Atlantic.
-
@Mister_Brue dang that’s shite! I think you can still register into November if them boots ever find their way home.
@ZackB jump in the fray, hombre!

@Mizmazzle Yes, I did see that. It will a bit of a shame to lose a month, but I’ll be happy to drop in then. They are resizing another pair and sending them over, so hopefully they make it this time.
I do have a belt I can enter which might be fun.
-
Such a killer boot already they’re going to look so good as time goes on.
-
Like Miz said there’s always November
-
No turning back. Surprisingly not a bad boot to wear on a roof.
Edit: for the record I normally wear a Nicks chore boot on a wedge to blow off the roof. Just trying to break these in a little bit before I wear 10 hours on Monday. Figured this would probably help having to walk and stand at an angle…
-
@Mizmazzle I need to man! Maybe in November if I remember!
-
Didn’t enter but watching this thread closely.

@Mister_Brue that leather looks crazy
