        @Nomad - how did you clean up the (white?) stitching on your boots?

        I have a pair of Nicks boots where the white stitching has turned black through polishing and I loved the contrast when the stitching was white . . .

                          I love shark.  Too bad it's getting harder and harder to get decent quality hides.

                                  More sole pics please. Whats the “purpose” of that type. If not for aesthetics?

                                    The sole is a super comfortable rubber.  The boots were a special offer/order from a couple of months ago and I think that they are my seventh pair of custom Wesco’s.

                                          Boots will be made bei the Maftei Family, first step will be now making a individual wooden last matching my feet and then  a try-on boot made of cheap leather offcut. I will have to come to the shop they'll check the fit, if it's fine they start with the ordered boot. Will be something like Giles Kanreki boot but with a traditional Austrian welt "zwiegenaeht". Everything will be made by hand in the traditional way…

                                            Sounds like a great Plan @Chap , the work of Maftei I saw to date looked very good and Zwiegenäht is the way to go, exited to see the Result.
