Just arrived this very nice pair of chukkas from Cobbler Union, maybe the best chukkas I own. Since my feet are bulky due to my daily running, pointy toe boxes are avoided.

The Utah leather looks great, the quilted heel cup show lots of attention to detail and the red linning adds some joy. There are 4 holes (brogues?) on the side that gives some additional visual interest to a very versatile boot.

X-post from Alden thread. Getting tired of wearing pajamas/shorts and slippers every damn day, so decided to take these Cigar WTB out of the box and wear them during the second half of the work day. Of course boots this nice deserve to be worn with decent pair of pants, so changed out of PJs. Paired with Kreis cayman tail belt. The darker color on the ridges match the Cigar shell while the rest of the belt picks up welt and edge color.

Color 4 Vibergs that got significantly darker with some lexol, hopefully it will lighten up a bit with some wear. Really miss how vibrant the color 4 used to be!

Really love how resilient shell is and how well it cleans up - some before pics:

If you were to own only one pair of Cordovan boots, what would you guys say is the most essential / versatile?

Service boots in #8? Was thinking about something like these Carminas. I'm not familiar with Vibergs.
