Ethan in the deer leather is coming soon
No as I already have black pebble grain Ethans.Have you ordered it? It’s on the website now in two versions, a waxed deer and a standard deer. Both with that sole which to my eyes isn’t aesthetically pleasing..
Top work that man. Strangely when I saw the ones you listed that were for sale at Trickers I’d thought that with a resole they’d be a nice boot, maybe wait for the sale...?No as I already have black pebble grain Ethans.
I’m waiting until their next cordovan release as I want the Teck which last time looked like whiskey cordovan.
I was just about to post the resole I got on them and recommend Pekin Shoe Repair for US people. Nick did an awesome job on my pair.

Great strategy indeed!Top work that man. Strangely when I saw the ones you listed that were for sale at Trickers I’d thought that with a resole they’d be a nice boot, maybe wait for the sale...?
Agreed. I’m not a fan of the foam sole.All they had to do was stick it on a commando or dainite sole ?♂️
I noticed that Cheaney have a new monkey boot model coming.
They also have a waxy commander boot, Do you ever get the feeling you’re being watched....?All they had to do was stick it on a commando or dainite sole ?♂️

They can look a bit like that but yours looks like an exaggerated version of the burnished effect. Did you buy off a retailer or eBay?View attachment 1226349

Does anyone have any thoughts on these? Bought these Caramel kudu Woodstock shoes and they arrived last week. The toe caps are all bleached looking as well as well as in other areas of the shoe. Is this normal with these shoes or are they some kind of second? I’m not sure if this is just the nature of the kudu leather; I certainly don't recall seeing anyone else's kudu leather trickers looking like this!

Only reason I ask is that apparently Trickers sold some 200 pairs to a discount retailer (no, not that one). People were selling on eBay fairly recently. I don’t know retailer was a discount outlet in Yorkshire area.
