Obviously.

Member how I promised that before/after with the Saphir greasy? Well i slathered up a boot before remembering a before pic so theres one boot for the before. They looked quite similar though so.....imagination maybe. IDK.

Anywho the solo boot is before the two togerher is after. Character and patina are still there, just less prevalent.

Also i ordered the natural and they sent the brown but thats no biggie.

And the soles will stay that way for a while, but will loosen up and once they do.....mmmmmmm.......

I am waiting for it! I think they'll be great when they soften up.

Return them, return them now and fill the internet with bad and misinformed reviews.

I will definitely try to match some of our past trolls in their efforts to trash GYW communities across the net! :p

For anyone who wants the brown Hamilton boot, they’re $260 on the Nordstrom website right now.
I was able to talk myself out of getting the brown strandmok on sale for $200, but for some reason that little extra leather to cover my ankle makes $60 more expensive seem like a can’t pass up opportunity.
Ordered.

Visited Soldier's Memorial today (first time); what a great museum! Unfortunately I didn't get to spend enough time there today.

Color 8 plain toe boot on Commando. Does anyone else get a bit of pinky/ring toe pinch with the Barrie last?
