Been putting some wear on the Chapman's. Im really loving how comfortable they have been and how quickly they took the shape of my foot.

This worked for me as these were so tight to get on and off that after a year the stitching came undone on the outside of the backstays. I got the stays repaired but then abandoned them until last week decided to soak them in the bath for an hour in luke warm water.
Then I put two pairs of thick socks on and a carrier bag over my feet and squeezed them into the boots. 48 hours later they were dry taking them off only at bedtime. Now they fit really well.

Whilst drying lots of white patches appeared

They were then treated to some Pecards antique leather dressing. Right boot dressed.

Quick brush and they were ready to wear

@Gammaman whoa! Are those natty CXL?

[Gammaman]

@Mizmazzle Yeah they are.

@Gammaman Wow, the colour difference to my six month old pair is massive!

[Mizmazzle]

Took some better photos of my boots for the Thunderdome. On my desk…yes. My version of studio lighting.

Thought it rather interesting how the uppers have maintained a more pure green color while the exposed toe box area has gotten more sun and elements exposure.

@Mizmazzle That's cool to see the leather changing color like that. I know you want some green to remain, but that's a unique brown-ish color that's developing.

@Mizmazzle yellowish patina coming through is gorgeous

[Mizmazzle]

Thanks guys. Really curious to see how they go

[fuzzybunnies]

@Mizmazzle man those are looking good. How have they been on the feet?

[Mizmazzle]

@fuzzybunnies mine fit pretty spot on and are quite comfy.
