not sure if this has been posted on here before, and it doesn't quite fit the denim video thread.
youtube video on the process of making Rolling Dub Trio boots:

I love the way these guys are looking. They start creasing up really fast. I took off the metal toe caps because I was afraid to scuff up hardwood floors (and to be honest they were just plain annoying).

the toe taps on my coupens were off after a month of wear.

[freepickin]

@dugafola that makes me feel better and less guilty about taking them off, thank you!

[dugafola]

@freepickin yea i think i wore one down pretty quick and the other i just decided to remove.

How do people size the Gleaners/Loro Zip Flame? Same size as Casper or?

The patina grows. Love these things

@freepickin they look stunning man !! What you doing in these? Really need to get some caspers again some day

[freepickin]

@FlavourFade I just wear them a lot! Used to work in them and take them on the trails around town often. They are horsebutt which seem to fold a lot more readily than the normal chromexcel ones. Mine are also a half size too snug so I think the leather is under more tension. They kinda sucked to break in but they're fine now lol

So stoked on the Caspers!

Rivet & Hide were very helpful in determining the right fit for me. These are the most comfortable pair of boots I’ve ever tried on right out of the box.

I’m going to hold onto them until Dome 6 and really put them through their paces this fall/winter.

@SourPower such a great boot!! I am looking at the new RDT M42.5 a bit right now they seem interesting too

[Kasi]

I try those on in Rivet and Hide solid boots
But have something else am from Rivet and Hide,
waiting to arrive

@Kasi Do you know if they will get more Caspers or another model from RDT?

[Kasi]

@imgg
Good question right now Danny is in Japan.

Roots 8.5 - Brown Horsebutt

[FlavourFade]

@SourPower 2nd pair of RDT for you, no? Congrats they look amazing. Am thinking about snagging a pair of Stan chelsea boots

[SourPower]

@FlavourFade indeed, you could say I’m on a roll Their boots work so well with the shape of my foot, so I feel like this will become an expensive hobby….

So I let impulses get the best of me again and ordered a pair of Casper’s in black Kobe shrink leather. I really don’t see anything online on this type of leather, is it similar to chromexel? Wondering how these will age, couldn’t decide between these or the brown horsehide
