Wondering that too. Also, considering how quick the french blues sold out...

As much as people are excited about these 7oz, the 10oz are awesome and I was lucky enough to get one from a return. I don't think they are going to be too hot for me this summer, considering "summer-weight" raw denim is 10z as well. I really enjoy how solid and substantial they feel. If they restock the 10s before the 7s, I wouldn't hesitate... just my 2 cents.

Alden for Epaulet "Milkshake" Suede Indy Boot: $495
The commando sole officially makes this the toughest suede boot of all time.

When I first saw this makeup, I thought "meh." After having looked it over a few times, I'm starting to develop a strange affinity for it. Plus, if I need to justify its purchase, I can safely say it fills a gaping hole in my MC x Ace Frehley wardrobe.

You know, I'm about 5 minutes of thought away from putting these in my closet myself after following a similar process of affinitization. Only thing that's holding me back is my perennial 10.5 vs. 11 debate.

The thing that's holding me back is the fact that those would be destroyed by indigo ASAP

Go 10.5 and sockless. Done. Grab a pair of 8.5 for me while you're in the cart, would ya?

Can anyone offer suggestions on what to wear with these space boots?

I'm strangely drawn to the leaf green chinos.

Same here. They're like cool cucumber salad on an unseasonably warm spring day. I thought they'd be 7 oz. :(

you guys should not be so worried about keeping them white. They will not stay white and I think that's kind of the point.

I guess, but also, $500 on a pair of boots that will have indigo stains? I dont know, something doesn't feel right. I'm all for beating up regular Indys..but these..dont know..torn

What method of shipping does Epaulet use? I'm in Canada and was curious about brokerage/duties/any extra fees upon arrival of the shipment

How thick/stiff are the duck canvas vs the 7oz lightweight? I can only order one but i have to make a decision on which would probably be more comfortable etc.

Thanks!
