I have the same model but pin grain instead of crock

i would think the pin grain would be a really good looking shoe.

Oh yes it is, mine is vintage cherry, I love it. The cedar posted by nick is a great looking colour.

Just how much bigger would an 11F be than a 10.5E on the TG73, kinda want to offer the pair on eBay and my 10.5Es are pretty solid fit, a little tight on width but length is good. Figure boot would fit with a small tacco insole?

itll be a little loose, nothing a thick sock or insole wouldnt fix.

but that's going up 1/2 a size in both length and width...which would be like an entire size up, right?

^ the tg73 is slightly narrow and stevent said his 10.5e width is a little tight to begin with. 11F would be loose with a thin sock so he'll have to wear a thicker sock or use an insole. i wouldnt gamble for $800 though. just speaking from experience

Trying to get that ''Nick shine'''

Mixed black and dark brown, thoughts?

This is pretty good. However in long term it is not good to have that much black polish in the dark brown pair. I may suggest next time use less wax, more rubbing and a bit more water.

Actually I used very very little black wax. Only on the top. Rest is darkbrown wax.

Thanks for the tip. I'm on my way, will let them rest for a few days before I start
