I'll take a wild guess and it's due to $$$$$$

How have your guys' W+H versions been holding up?  Thinking of getting a used pair in charcoal to use as my go-tos, not sure if that's a good decision since* they're still moderately high in price (to me at least)

I've worn my charcoals practically daily for over a year out here in Korea. They need a resole but otherwise they've gotten better with age. Do it.

9 in Clarks DB w/ some space, 41 CP (tight fit), 9.5 Nike tight fit = 8 in these right?  Or 8.5

edit: or either with an insole?

Sounds about right. I sized down one and a half from my brannock size but then again I have a narrow low volume foot. Search the thread to confirm as I haven't worn any of that in a while.

Does anyone know if you can get the current service boot made with nubuck?

Dotcomzz, can you post some pics? Ive worn mine for about half a year, and it looks VERY worn.

Phonics, im pretty sure you can. You can even order a dsquared-ish boots with orange, blue and yellow if you are willing to pay and wait more.

There's an image up in the Contentendness thread, but it's not very good. I'll try to remember to post a few more when I get off work.

http://www.styleforum.net/t/303455/the-contentedness-thread/300#post_5759219 is the pair? These look almost like black oil-tanned leather in the pic, you said before they're charcoal nubuck?

That's them. There's a monsoon season here in the summer so I treated them pretty much out of the box with ok oil. But they're the charcoal nubucks. At least they were.

Gotcha--noticed you're not rocking the leather laces either. I didn't explicitly specify on mine, but I said I basically wanted the w+h boot, so hopefully mine come with them.

I saw your post on the Contentedness thread... I'm so glad you are enjoying them! They look great. This is what they looked like new.

I also posted comparison photos of the boots here (next to the same boot straight from Dayton, i.e. not W+H).
