Glad I got all of my GS before rampant inflation and whatever will happen with tariffs. Dune Brass boot for casual Friday.

With these massive price increases, maybe I can get something out of my 2 brand new and 2 lightly used pairs that don't fit.

I'm terrible with reselling. I have at least one GS that is the wrong size my plan is I'll wait until I move and then put all of my "to sell" shoes together and put them on ebay. we'll see.

I'm going to be in Barcelona this week for work, but took the opportunity to explore nearby Tarragano. I brought my OG Crimson Ottawas as a second pair, with my sorta-new-but-previously-comfortable Piloti sneakers as the primary for the travel and the trade-show stuff. But by the time I arrived in Tarragano I was hurting. The next day (yesterday) was my only day to stomp around and I switched to the Ottawas that had treated me so well in several trips to Asia with days filled with walking.

They did great!. My feet feel so much better today, and the leather soles handled damp cobbles just fine.

Lovely. The unicorn pebble grain Ottawa. Really need to start wearing mine and breaking them in - they look awesome.
@basu13 - Like you, I loved @FatTuesday and others pix of the pebble Ottawa over the years. So cool, so different. I DM’d Wyatt and asked about the availability of that leather. He said, you know what, we still have some laying around, how about a special order? I took him up on it. A few months later, looks like they said, heck with it, let’s do a limited run.

So glad for you and others that got a chance to scoop them up. Maybe the run was in the works the whole time. But….idc…I’m taking credit for it, lol!

Interesting story, thanks 👍 happy to have got in on that limited run about a year and a half back. It's been lying in the box for some time, need to start wearing it more frequently 😁

Yeah you do! I sorta regret moving on from mine (sold them to fund something fun, though it didn't work out)
