They look nice!
Just to try to confirm that I don’t dislike ALL Trickers, just the ones I have , here is a picture of them with some EG brogues as a comparison....

I’m not a huge two tone fan but paired maybe with a different denim, probably darker, they’d probably go better. It’s all subjective of course and I take no offence in you not liking your own shoes. Whack em on eBay and try again is my motto! ?

They do look fantastic. I am very tempted, but will wait. What do you condition them with?

I just stepped out in my Stows with the regular Dainite sole and can I just say, with single digit temps here, the cold shot right through the soles and the upper, so getting a thicker set of both is in order.

I wish Tricker's made more of their fancier styles with Commando soles.

Also, what do the kind folk on this forum make of this?

You’d condition as calf with the caveat these are heavily burnished so be careful not to remove that. I use rm Williams neutral as it does enough of what you need without removing the colouring.

Yep, those are the choc ones.
Any burnished leather runs the risk with products like renavoting creams.
Ah I should be ok then. I got some brown polish with the Stows when I purchased them but typically I just use a clear \ neutral beeswax type polish for all my pairs. That should be ok, yeah?

That’ll be fine. I’ve some heavily burnished RM Williams and that was the advice was the neutral creme which isn’t as deep penetrating. Leather is far tougher than folks give credit so doesn’t need pampered as much as we do! ?

Those are crackers. Best Trickers I’ve seen in a while. Where from , any left in uk 9?
END Clothing, I believe. Quite a few sizes left and they just went on 30% sale so maybe a good time to pull the trigger. ;-)

The red one in the middle on the top row is also quite pretty. Which one is that?
Green over white sole were from End many years ago.
Red is lollipop cavalier from the Bureau also many years ago.
