Drying from their first polish….

[seanocono]

^Those look great, Mega.

[Megatron1505]

Thanks, still smeared in polish, but I'm really happy with how the leather has come up. It's such a nice, soft comfortable leather, not at all what I would normally wear.

[seanocono]

You have to love throwing change-ups every now and again.

Picked up my Lofgren x Mushman engineers in Badalassi cognac yesterday. They're incredible.

[supersalami]

WOW….....

[SpaceGnome]

holy shit, those are well executed boots.

[simonc]

Awesome.

[Chiba J.]

Thanks guys. Really excited to see how these patina. I've seen some worn White Kloud boots in the same leather (Badalassi cognac) at Mushmans and they were a really stunning red-brown. If you're familiar with Alden's Horween shell, tone-wise at least they were a Ravello-ish color. Here is an example, but the ones I saw were even darker than these.

^Those are wicked cool boots.  Really really nice.

[Megatron1505]

Engineer boots really are not my thing, but I have to applaud they way those boots are made. The stitch and the leather looks amazing, they should last forever.

OK you John-Lobb-o'philes…Here are some more pics of my JL "Chukkas".....

Love that soft 40's toe and profile on the RRL, understated win.

[simonc]

on another note, what do you think of dying the natural sides of the soles the same colour as the boot? Thoughts?

[injunjack]

generally, natural is too light imho and gets awful looking fast.

I prefer stained brown or black. Black is easiest to maintain neat.

Both can tone-in or give contrast depending on the boot color….

Becks…..
