very special JCar do you have some details about history, model, logoprint? thanks
I got these a little over 2 years ago thru JCrew online. They are the Irish Setter model by Red Wing. I cheated a bit since they came distressed and I have not done anything to them since. They keep getting better and better. I didn't wear them as often as I should have this past winter since it was unseasonably warm. These fuckers keep my feet toasty walking the streets of Boston. Not sure what you mean by logoprint?

Very beautiful.
These Whites SD? In Chromexcel?They look like Julian boots. Are they?
And is it horsehide?
Really intrigued by these. Great shape and nicely worn in. -
Technically, that's roughout- the flesh side of regular full grain leather; essentially, just inside out, not suede, which is a split grain leather, usually from a softer leather, like lamb or calf. Roughout is a lot tougher and more stain resistant and durable.
For practical purposes, they look very similar, though.:)
God, I'm being a pedantic douche today…

Hello demonito,
could you do me a favour and tell me what the black boots that you posted are?

The FH boots are made from Deer skin, and look amazing. Same as anything I guess, if you can afford it then it is worth the price.
So is the IH/Aero western and it's similar price. Id rather get the shirt for that price. Seems like a shirt has much more deerskin, just sayin'….
