Both these pairs are about 10 years old. I polish them every so often, other than that they have aged naturally.
I am very fond of the patination of the Loake (compare the change in coloration with the unworn pair in front). However the Crockett’s leather has held up better with age, although you’d expect that at the higher price point.
