Strongly dislike the white (or at least cream) sole on this boot

Junya can do wrong, just like any designer. These are really nice though, best red wing's I've ever seen.

Good call on the brick sole, I think that would have definately stepped this one up a notch.

The brick red would look to garish against the light tan suede. The whole point of the brick red is to be subtly different, I don't think these are supposed to look like bucs. I think a commando sole would look killer on these.

The upper and the sole not matching is obviously the point.

Would kop at 90% off

I hate that sole on the regular RW boots but I especially hate it those. I like the uppers ok though, put it on a lightly lugged black or brown sole and you would have a cool boot (at least at 1/3 that price).
