some marsupial girl dropped her salad dressing on my oakwood DB today, tried to get it off, but it's too oily to come off.
less than 1 month old and disaster.


I wouldn't worry too much db look best beat up
Just ignore it or if bugs you get a suede/ NB cleaning kit

I've been wanting to get some desert boots, but i'm not sure what size to get, and they don't sell clarks where I live at all, so I come to you.

I usually wear size 46/47 euro size, and i own another pair of clarks in size 12.
The clarks fit well if i use really thick socks, but if i use regular socks I can fit my thumb in the back on the heel. What size would you recommend getting when it comes to the desert boot? I've been reading about half a size would be the norm, but I'm still unsure.

Thanks.

Measure both feet then get measurements of the boots you want to buy, bam.

What can I use to darken my clarks beeswax ?

I wiped it with a damp cloth a tad too hard and the coating is lighter in colour now

Would saphir renovateur be a good option ? Or go for a obenauf LP?

I used Obenauf's LP on mine and it darkened them a few shades. I really like the shade they are now.

Which colour would be the best to wear mainly with khakis and dark jeans ? I think about oakwood, cola, taupe and macara nubuck.
