Boots Boots Boots - For Boot Guys Only

From the chukka thread:

Snuff suede chukkas are one of my favourite boots. Since I live in Peru is very expensive to return shoes so eventually I get over stocked.

First picture from left to right:

1st ALLEN EDMONDS
- KATMAI
- Last 511
- 360 Welt
- Commando (mini lug)
- The AE Katmai is a tad snug in the forefoot maybe due to the thick leather. I took them to the cobbler to be stretched an return fitting great.

2nd and 3rd SHIPTON & HENEAGE by Crocket & Jones
- RANGER
- Last 325 (I guess)
- 360 Welt
- Vibram Lite
- I purchased two pairs of SH&H (by C&J) Ranger that have seen a lot of action (one as back up that is in pristine conditions)

4th LOAKE
- KEMPTON
- Last 026
- 360 welt
- Dainite
- The Loake Kempton unfortunately does not fit me very well maybe is my high instep that forces the tongue to be not hidden by the flaps, I am considering placing a couple of stitches buy might be risky

5th COBBLER UNION
- CHUKKA
- Last 312
- 360 welt
- Dainite
- The CU are very comfortable, my latest purchase, maybe the neatest finishing.

Hola!

I believe that a pair of Heschung Genet or Tricker's Aldo could be nice additions, but I have plenty of snuff suede chukkas for a while.

Chukkas rule... and it is always very fun to see members having different brand shoes in the same models specially with the same colour. ¡No tenemos perdón de Dios!.

How did you get away with having not 2 but 5 of the same style?! I am struggling to explain myself having two black boots. Any tips/excuses we can use why we need more than 2 pairs? I tried the 'this don't fit well, I'm returning these.. Oops missed the returns cut-off' - didn't work ?

Boots are really super cool item I even fall in love with my first date because he was wearing a pair!

Actually interested in these. Would it be possible to see this side by side with a Stow for comparison?

I hope these helps:

1.- I tell myself every morning that I deserve all my shoes and look for that day's shoes with a big smile. By night I am sure that I don't deserve them, but who cares, I don't go to sleep with my shoes on.

2.- I tell myself that they are functional sculptures and that buying GYW shoes is buying art. Once I told that thing to my wife and she stared me in a quite uncomfortably way.

3.- Do not count how many shoes you have. My grandma used to say that counting how many jewels you own brings bad luck.

Cheers!

That looks very similar to the Hamilton tartan, intentional?

Not in intentional but a happy accident. It's Black Watch but that does look close to Hamilton.
