Boots Boots Boots - For Boot Guys Only

No worries, those **** kickers could be mistaken for boots..lol. Mine have shearling in the lining, so my normal UK8.5 size fits well with my thick winter socks.

Gents for Jodhpur I am leaning towards Zonkey boots. Any other brand that is similar in terms of style, quality? I do like the design but the sailor last is not my favorite.

Great boots, great memories:

Six years ago I saw these Cheaney Mallory boots in Cheaney's site but at that time they didn't deliver to Peru, they where on sale at a great price and where the last pair available. I mailed Herrings Shoes and ask if they could purchase these boots for me and deliver to Peru and that I will happily pay the profit they consider for the service.

I recieved a mail confirming that they could purchase and deliver them at the same price and there was no need to add profit on top. A couple of days later Herrings informed that the boots have arrived to their premises and that the left boot had a slight difference on the burnishing applied to the toe and if I would accept them. I accept the boots and here they are with new laces from Grant Stone.

The burnishing applied to the toe of your Mallory seems to be similar to my Eden Boots, as they share the same Maracca suede. I was cleaning my boots with a damp rag when I realized that it was stained with some kind of "dark powder" that came from the burnished area, that went off very easily after a strong brushing even though not completely. It was a nice surprise as I prefer a more subtle burnishing.

Galways and Bonafe

I use a mix of Bonafe Chelsea boots and Paraboot Michael whenever I'm too lazy to lace my shoes.

Hello @Mercurio, I was wondering how I could stain the left boot (I even consider using black tea as you get great results with coffee), now I will go the other way, brushing the right one which sounds easier.

Thank you for the tip. Have a nice sunday.

A subtle and smart boot for the man who needs a little height adjustment. More formal than casual, perhaps.
