and more here (warning boot tuck!)

I have not seriously styled it tucked, but covering 80% of that nubuck just seems like such a waste so I may work it in.

Much like the 'lift' in Layer-0, etc., the toebox on Devoa boots isn't as severe in person. They're hardly sleek, but the look is quite distinct, and, in my opinion, really cool without resorting to full-blown anime character proportions. Really comfortable and tough as ****. Mine are Badalassi Carlo, not Guidi leather, for what it's worth.

Any idea what the sizing is like?

of all the jp brands- this IS boot is my favorite

IS footwear is absolutely incredible- and against my better judgement I love the leather covered heel. IS did it incredibly well...

Which ones did you get? Do you have any pics of them worn?

Those are nice. I recall seeing them in the buyer's PDF a while back. Even the derby is nice!

6 hole back zips, and sorry that's the best I can do as my wide lens is presently knackered!

Those derbies you are selling are nice uzairh. For a good price and my size too ;p Buying a bunch of goth ninja jackets in the next couple of weeks though so funds are spoken for.

Love my pair of Augusta derbies which I just started wearing this week... best fitting derbies I have.

/\ Thank you! And all the others who commented in my sale thread.

BTW which ones did you get?

 

[bdude]

Ha ha! I see the similarity too.
Paying Japanese retail for MA+, that will be the day!

Don't you have a pair of the backzips? Wondering how they have handled the wear and tear....

He3y uzairh, what exact style of MA+ boots are those? Are they backzips? I dont seem to be able to find this exact type anywhere!

Thanx

Thank you! that particular photo ( i guess worn in look) looks absolutely perfect! I guess the way the photo was taken makes the boot look different then the ones at vertice..
