Lately, I cant get enough of these boots. Wearing them AGAIN today.
No words, these are insane. Wonder how sizing down will work for you for #8 shell. I have confirmed with Morgan and Guy that I should go for size 8 for 2030 (same as my 2040).

Thanks
I think I will be fine.
These are marginal on the 8.5.
I think the 8 will be a slightly better fit for me.

Those things are bonkers, man. I don't blame you.
Haha, thanks.

hideous! now what is your PayPal address so I can do you a favor and take them off your hands for you. Only doing it out of the kindness of my heart
I know what you mean.
The boot is way too shiny and isn't proper.
Honestly, if I took a little sandpaper to them to beat them up it may look better. (sarcasm)

I can send you my paypal, but I would honestly need yours so I could pay you to take them.
I can't give these things away.

I like how the finish isnt so shiny that it is more versatile and the creases where you can see the lighter blue peak out.
Yeah, it is more noticeable in the sun. Maybe I will take a close up of the blue later.
Brushing brings it right back to dark blue, but after a little wear it comes out nicely.

Honestly, not much thought on the subject.
There are 11 eyelets, and bar lacing would be tough to get off and on and tighten.
With the 11 eyelets, I am not sure what length I would need.
I know I can look it up, I just didn't really give it thought.
