Junkard Boots

[hurhur]

I have been using the navy pair quite a bit, and haven't applied as much product to them. Just the occasional brushing now and then. The blue has faded slightly to reveal the brownish hue under strong sunlight. The only thing that prevents me from reaching them that often is the rusty eyelets. It is quite bothering, that's why i went for blind eyelets this time. The creasing on the boots are how you'd except shell to be like, nice rolls. The midsole and outsole are actually quite sturdy too, but they have not really gone through real rough terrains, just some long walks.

It’s best to give them tracing measurements if you can. They have unique conversions IMO. I’m at least a 12 on the longest shoes. (I’m usually 12.5 or even 13 with right on 12.5 Brannock). They gave me what they said was a size 45 on NH. Slightly shorter than usual but not rubbing. They will usually confirm sizing with you.

I recently received their SC2089 with NH last in size 42 (8 UK). Fit is perfect - ideally snug without discomfort. In case it is of help, my feet tracing measurements are:
- right foot: Length = 25.7 cm; Width = 10.5 cm
- left foot: Length = 25.7 cm; Width = 10.7 cm

I have never measured my Brannock size.

Nevertheless do your own tracing measurements to be sure, as my other shoes are 8.5UK. Junkard are very helpful in helping you choose the correct size.

just got a new shell pair from them. Nailed the fit on the NH last. I’m 10 in Viberg, and 44 in these.

A few more shots. These have been really comfortable so far. Today is the first day out so I’ll report back later if there are any hotspots.

Nice pairing with the denim! This makes me wish my Alden Wingtips weren’t so damn shiny. I always feel like they’re too dressy to wear with denim.

First off, those boots are beautiful. Which shell is that?

Thanks, this shell is cool because it can shine up if you want but stays pretty dull, if you just let it be.

It's called "linea d' arte" shell. It gets it's color from a natural wine dye from toscana italy. The color variance is pretty awesome. It's like color 8 with more highs and lows.

Pics!!

I’m heavily considering a pair ... I not a huge fan of the little almond shape on the cap goes, the 2030 last feels like that’s as pointy as I’m willing to go maybe a structured plain toe NH last.. I’d be curious to see Truman viberg comparisons on the NH

That build looks a lot like the AE dalton

I’ve had a few pairs of the Dalton’s, it’s similar in looks but feels more like a service boot. Also, the dalton doesn’t have the storm welt. I think these are easy to transition to a rugged boot versus the Dalton’s which are more of a dress boot.

Which comparisons do you want to see? I have Viberg 2030, plaintoe and captoe, and also Truman plaintoe and captoe, I could take pics of for you. Just top view I’m guessing?
