      I wear my 1907s for about six months of the year, and during that time, I wear them every second or third day. From the very beginning, I’ve walked between 5 and 15 km a wearday in them. It was really tough at the start, and I struggled a lot with blisters on my heels, among other things. It wasn't until after six months of regular wear that I stopped dreading putting them on. Things have been getting better ever since, though I’d ​​say they are still a long way off from being fully broken in.
      No resoling so far.

        @matt_rost Thank you, very helpful! I’ve had three rounds of ”blisters-healing-wear again”. No blisters from yeasterdays all day wear with approx 10km. So things are heading the right direction I think.
        Again, thanks for the insight.

        I know that I shall meet my fate, somewhere among the clouds above; Those that I fight I do not hate, those that I guard I do not love.

          Sounds good! 👍 I think the right mix of patience and resilience will ultimately pay off with the 1907. At the same time, my understanding of the concept of resilience was redefined. 😅 I take good care of them so that they outlive me and I don't ever have to break in a new pair again.
          Enjoy wearing them!

              @SKT Yeah those are rad, saw those on Instagram. I just bought two pairs of boots this summer so I'm out.

                I have these in the green and I love the black wedge sole. Ended up with Freenotes last size 10. This forum is such a bad influence.

                Settle down easy......

                  I just bought some sight unseen. I'm a 12 in sneaker size so I got an 11. Hope they fit.
