Shoe has no insole. It was indeed the inlay sole that got funky. No issues with that in my blue Oxfords that I have worn barefooted since day one…

Just took the blue'uns off after 6 hours and they smell of that crazy leather - so good...

Just got an 8 oz. jar of Obenauf's leather polish… Wondering: should I apply to my Oakstreet Bootmakers or would the Venetian creme they sell in their online shop be better (or worse?)... Will it make the leather darker like it did on my Grenson boots?.. Cause that I do not want happening...

The LP will work fine
As to color change, only one way to know…

[Seul]

Aye - I asked George through mail and I will be buying some Venetian creme for my brown'uns as I don't want those to darken, and he reckoned it would… Blue'll be fine...

Seul-I have not tried Obenauf's on any osb's yet, but in my experience it does tend to darken any leather I have applied it to. I think sticking to the Venetian creme is a good choice here.  However, I am excited to know the result though if you do try Obenauf's as I'm pretty sure I'm holding a lifetime supply already.

@Chris:

Thanks for the suggestion, but BiG is out of it and the Oni duck jeans in my size.  Combined with the failure to launch of the IH-804 single knee non-paraffin and the TW 5281…

Well, that's my rant.

Keep the faith.  I may have something coming along that will sort you out…............

@jacoavlu:

G,
you had hinted some time back at a single-layer cotton duck pant in the works
can you give any update?

@Giles:

No, but let me get on the case.  Colour, brown?

G, Any leads in the mystery of the single layer duck pants?

[Giles]

No, but I will ask…

[jacoavlu]

monday noted we're all the way up to #53 on the shirts which is crazy
but of course there's several numbers in the 40's and 50-52 not accounted for…
would this be stuff in the pipeline
or stuff available in Japan/elsewhere that you didn't pick up G?

[Giles]

Make it easy for me Jaco, been sitting here for 14 straight hours.  Let me know the missing numbers and I'll tell you the score…...

[jacoavlu]

off the top of my head
thinking 47-52

[Giles]

I think that these numbers are possibly destined to be for some of the upcoming Fall shirts.  I don't think he has made anything that I'm not getting….......

G. is it possible to install a chat-area where all forum members are able to chat with eachother without pm`ing one or the other just to ask some short questions?

would be dope somehow…

[Giles]

I think our view is that chat is good in public.  It adds to the informality and friendliness of the forum….
