I'll take a picture tomorrow with my 501z which is appx 7,3inch (18,5cm) once cuffed.

For now, here is how it looks like with Uniqlo MIJ (not very explicit)

Curious as to the general style for the balmoral boot.
I probably wouldn't be too interested in a wingtip but a captoe with the upper part around the ankles in suede might interest me.


As I said, he was thinking of going for Espresso burnished captoe with the upper part suede chocolate. He just wanted me to post asking for suggestions and statements of interest.

ETA: This would not be on the country lasts, but instead one of the City lasts. It started with a 6xxx--can't quite remember right now. Above is, indeed, a picture of a Trickers balmoral boot.

Interesting pieces on the Kurt Geiger sale.
The Dillinger is definitely made by Trickers, and I'm 95% certain the Baiku is. Possibly the Antibes and Puglia too.

I like the back of the Baiku and If it wasn't for the piece across the toe/vamp I'd have jumped a pair...


I dont think it looks all too bad. Especially on the brown pair. Im considering a pair for my brother. Recently purchased a ducati :slayer:

Ducky,

Hows riding your bike with those? It looks like you got a chain guard on your chain rings right? None of the grease gets on your pants or boots? If so I'll need to cop one of those chain guards. Anyway thats an Awesome PIC!

It's the stock chain guard on my Cannondale Quick CX. I still use trouser bands to avoid contact with grease.
My biggest concern is rain because I didn't install my mudguards yet, and last few weeks have been awefully wet :D

As for the riding, no particular issue but when I bought my shooting derby at Septième Largeur, the owner of the brand inspected my Eaton and its sole and saw some marks on the danite (I've gripping pedals). He told me to pedal with the front rather than middle foot because otherwise you can break the shank. Ever since, I am fighting with my weird pedaling :embar:

That's a bash guard, not a chain guard. It's to help protect your chain and crank rings if you land on rocks or logs.
It's not going to do anything to prevent getting grease on anything.

An actual chain guard will enclose the chain and mean you're Dutch riding slowly in the city.
