I am loving the Dukes. Here’s a photo of them in my locker at the pool.

@deanclean those are ace!
-
Thanks @Heavy_blue I wasn’t loving how you could see the shaft of the boots under the jeans, but they have sort of softened up a bit and it isn’t as pronounced.
-
@deanclean when new they look like ‘just ok’
To me but rough out and some indigo patina..
Makes me
Almost wanna grab a pair -
Not your Mothers Combat boots
-
@tody
from standard and strange? -
@Daniel-San Yes, the black roughout M43s
-
8” Deerskin Donkey Punchers out for pre order. Geez Louise just look at em
-
aren’t they sensational
wow -

I am totally pissed. The eyelets on my M-43s are coming loose. Looks like they are not grabbing the leather enough, and the diameter of the inner side looks terribly small to begin with. Emailed Lofgren, asking if and how this can be fixed. Received a gentle but determined Fuck Off and the advice to contact the seller. Will get in touch with my local cobbler to see if he can put in slightly oversized eyelets.
-
@tody woow that sucks! And crazy that they don’t wanna fix it for you.. hopefully your cobbler can fix it but for that amount of money you expect something else..
-
@tody
wow that’s really bad
definitely not acceptable at that price range

( der Ingo bekommt das bestimmt hin
) -
Total bummer @tody that really sucks after spending that kind of money. I fell like even if it was a less expensive pair of shoes that eyelets should stay attached. That’s kind of a basic part of shoe making no?
-
I bought them second hand, but unworn. The question i asked was how to fix it, not to have them fix it. I expected an answer in the lines of that it is sometimes an issue, nothing to worry about, that a cobbler can fix it or even what eyelets they use and which (oversized) replacements they recommend. Unfortunately I didn‘t get that kind of answer.
