Hmm, I’m not a fan of being able to feel the shoes touching the top of my big toe, probably why I find the combat boots so comfortable.
-
WTF is this bulls*%t?
Had these badalssi Grigio boots about 16 months. Not even that heavy of wear really. I raged my nattys everyday for almost three years and never had an issue. Anyone experience something like this before?
Just noticed this when I got home from work:
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...
-
If it’s any consolation a good cobbler can take care of this pretty easily. I would have them use heavier duty or higher quality thread just to be safe.
-
@northsouthdenimguy that’s good to hear. I know shit happens. But it’s annoying none the less.
-
For sure, I’ve never had that happen but I also would be annoyed.

@northsouthdenimguy I also emailed John Lofgren to see what they have to say about it. Maybe they will step up and make it right somehow. Though I’m not holding my breath.
-
@northsouthdenimguy reached out to Grant at unsung. He confirmed it’s no biggie. Any cobbler worth their salt can fix it.

@Mizmazzle I had something similar on a pair of Wescos. It took my cobbler 5 minutes to fix. Annoying, but easy enough to get sorted.
-
Nice! I was going to mention reaching out to Grant
-
I got a pair of M43s. It looks like same size as the Combats was the right way to go.
-
@NickD Would be interested to see how they evolve. The ones on their site look like they were used in the trenches but assume normal wear will evolve in a less extreme way.
-
@will6er I'll post pictures during my journey with them, but I find my boots don't patina very quickly. I work at a desk, in a city so they aren't getting hard wear.

@FlavourFade those are dope dude! Congrats. Pair really nicely with your jeans.
-
@fuzzybunnies @Mizmazzle thanks guys. Can't wait to break them properly in once it cools down outside
-
Great score, those look fantastic! I’ve been wearing my Natural CXLs in the evenings and on the weekends more than any other boot this summer, but those roughout boots are something else.
-
@northsouthdenimguy I know that there's a lot of great leather choices but IMO rough out is always a no brainer. But your narural HH morisson boots are fantastic too!!
