Offical TRICKERS shoes and boots thread

[Crafty Cumbrian]

A satellite photo of Crafty's collection? That's a bit unfair. So what if he has a couple of pairs of shoes and one or two boots? ?

Aye that’s the spirit sir, denial!

Medallion toe Woodstocks are extra cool.

No more red shoe shame. What an incredible job The Shoe Healer has done on my, now burgundy, shoes. Very many thanks to Ann, Antony and all at the shop. I am really pleased with these. The look even better in the flesh and have been burnished. They are over 5 years old. Wonderful! Photo courtesy of The Shoe Healer.

Hey Munky, those shoes look great.

I had an american girlfriend that used to mock me when I was wearing burgundy / bordeaux shoes saying "hurry up Dorothy".

Hey Crafty, I was browsing r/goodyearwelt and in the discussion about your MTO Carmina Chelseas (they look great BTW), you said you might need a "wide angle" to group-photo your entire collection. No, you'll need a satellite!

Looking forward to seeing your kudu 4497S Henrys. What sole did you choose?

FTFY ?

Very nice color and luster.

Given your recent white-van experience, maybe you should be setting up some traffic cones for these shots. ?

Beautiful. What leather is that, guvna?

It’s called gold MC which over the years we have determined means Manchester Cowhide. Can’t recall if Manchester was a tannery or method. It’s a lovely soft yet thick leather. Those boots had white soles originally and I chopped them off to put Ridgeway on them I seen a pair of Josh which is basically the shoe version on sale and picked those up today...
Comparison shot.
I’ve seen MC in Naster (brown) Gold, sometimes Green and Blue amd years ago Black. I have Gold and Naster. Sometimes they have scars but that’s par for the leather.

And burgundy MC too.
