That’s caramel with a cream welt sir..

If that's caramel I'm voting caramel too Looks like Polo?

 

[Crafty Cumbrian]

The Crafty's out in full flight.

I fell when I was running and got the scar in the leather, but the leather is so thick it doesn't even matter. It's quite ugly, and I should probably put some polish on, but ... meh.

I’ll drum up support on Reddit. Just need six plus stock ..we are at three confirmed before everyone replied so should be good!

Seriously thinking of the GMTO, need monkey boots but not sure I’d be in with Caramel... I like it but not sure I want it on those boots. Polo would have been great and I’d be in but I.d pass on that fantastic GMTO. Will spend the night on it but pretty sure I won’t be in

It’s only money...

caramel can be darker. Some of the earlier batches were quite light but I’ve had a pair recently quite dark (burnished)..

I like it but I guess we can’t chose the tonality of the caramel we want
