Nice. How does the kangaroo leather compare to the RM’s yearling leather? Never had any first hand experience w kangaroo.

Rider Boot Co. (by Cortina) - Jackson hobo boot

Been using this as a beater boot and I've been mostly impressed.
The fit was a bit tricky to nail down, so I had to use insoles, but overall the leather has aged nicely, and I like the design (reminds me a bit of AE's Bleecker Street).
Only complaint is the "Sestriere" Italian made rubber outsoles, which seems to have worn off quicker than I had expected.

Kangaroo is insanely soft yet strong. I love them! I’ll get a picture up later.

Meermin Cherry Cordovan - day 3 of break in. Still rough around the top but thicker socks and shorter periods of wear should help

Finally got the Meermin Olive shell Jumper to my door. Meermin’s customer service is frustrating, bad, unbelievable....etc. It took forever to receive them, but glad to have them at long last. They’re more Brown than Olive, but overall not bad, Shinki shell is a great bargain at $480. Their shell is definitely not Horween, but at those prices worth it for me to pick up a pair or two.
