^^ Agreed. I stay away from bals in general for that reason.

Could you offer a reference for the grey carmina calf next to the black calf? Because the grey looks basically black on my screen.

This is the grey in sunshine against some other colors. If you guys want more pictures let me know and I can post them up.

Great choice.

I'd be tempted as well.

However from what I've read and I maybe mistaken but I believe my high instep would be an issue with these boots.

Phew good thing I am primarily flat-footed. I have a pair of AE Strands and while the sides don't "bow" out too much I can see that the last shape is geared more toward people with higher insteps.

They suit my high instep fine. More accommodating in that respect than my G&G Wigmores.

Maybe my memory is bad, or possibly the comment I read was incorrect.

Great looking boot.


I knew I should have gotten blue as well.

Or it could just be that you remember it perfectly, but the person commenting had a different experience than me.

High instep is the single most consistent fit issue that presents for me. A whole lot of shoes will fit everywhere else, but not there.

hanoiboy - that navy boot is killer.

Very impressive

+1. I keep talking myself out of it, but I don't know how much longer I can hold off.

Navy is so versatile, It looks like black indoors but shines when exposed to sunlight. Horween rocks!
