Damn the Harlech is a beautiful boot. I wish I could get it on a danite sole to be semi justified in the purchase with my Lindricks. The alternative is the BB boot but I really want a brown cap toe. I know 341 is longer than 325 but is it significant when they're side by side?

Significant enough that one can tell on the first look. 325 is slightly bulky in comparison. Definitely wider and more voluminous. For a less formal boot I would probably go with the 325.

Hello!

I was wondering if any of you guys could tell me your experience with the C&J Coniston in Scotch Tan. Im considering getting a pair due to the great exchange rate, but am not sure it will go with my wardrobe (jeans, chinos and the occasional trouser).

Thanks!

Also looking to get a pair. Sounds like it should be fine with your wardrobe.

To echo Churchill W above, I think they'd go perfectly. I don't think I've come across a picture of Conistons and thought "you know what, they don't look right" but I'm not overly critical. The tan color is also extremely versatile so all in all, i think you'd be making a great choice!

Do it!
Just ordered a pair of Harvard loafers in chestnut :inlove:

Chestnut is by far my favorite calf color from CJ. Great choice. PicturesPicturesPictures!

@BackInTheJox

They look great, mind if i ask what your shoe care routine is? You are clearly doing something right

Thank you, although I'm almost embarrassed to admit my routine is very minimal. A light brushing after wear (if at all), and I think a month or two ago I gently went over them with a scant amount of Saphir Renovateur (but didn't want to overdo it as I was worried it might ruin or strip the original polishing/finishing).

Perhaps this is a testament to C&J's magnificent quality!

May want to do more brushing. Apparently, dust is an upper killer.
