More likely I would have made yours; been looking at those for awhile and waiting for the right deal to come along. Probably would have snapped them up from you.

Yeah, selling on the bay can be painful...lesson learned eh? You know, there’s nothing wrong with putting it out there on the forum boot page to members, when you have something to move.

I know, I’ve not sold on here before and eBay is what it is! Have a couple of ladies boots (long story) left which aren’t shifting. Rm Williams suede Adelaide’s (4.5 and 5 uk). Got a few pairs in a trade of sorts.. my wife lives in hers. Really nice boots.

I’ve gazillions of RMs! Just got a pair of Sydney boots today.

Need some advice... Since restarting my lurker ways on this forum i've already purchased 4 new pairs of shoes. I need to (try to) limit that going forward and wanted advice from you all on boots i'm thinking of getting. I'm looking for a boot that I can wear out on a normal day in town + possible be able to step in a nice event / restaurant. I've been eyeing a boot in the Galway style but would something more like balmoral style be better? Also in these situations is it better to stick with one type of leather or two? I've been looking at various bootmakers + possibly getting one made by wison or zeb.

Any feedback would be great I know i'm a little all over the place with my requirements but looking to see what you boot experts think.

It’s addictive once the buzz kicks in sir!
Not what you asked but do you have any Chelsea boots? Those are the perfect fit for your description, especially with a rubber sole which can cope with inclement weather. Many very good brands offering various colours. I love RM Williams as they are so damn comfortable.

If I were to get a laced dress boot for multiple occasions I’d be tempted to stick to one leather if for no other reason as it would most likely be able to fit with more outfits.

My goodness man, that is an incredible make. Very unique and has the added benefit of looking really good.

Cool as hell. A bit much for me with the red straps, but I'd give nothing but mad props to the gent who could pull it off.

Beautiful. I too wouldn’t have gone with red straps, but I like the makeup.
