RM Williams Boots - Everything You Wanted to Know

[Billy Cooksley]

Hi all,
Just wondering what the price reduction is on RMW in Duty Free at Sydney International Airport??
Thanks.
Billy.

No reduction, just GST free which means 9.1% cheaper than retails price. Only clearance store sell cheap ones, there is one in Sydney Olympic Park-The stables.

And now for some better shots ...

Nice shine there Gerry Nelson. I found the RMW (my favourite shoe) can indeed take a shine; I only did as an experiment though. I'm now thinking about a super matt, ultra dull, non-reflective coat. I'll put this to the folks in the mega shoe care thread.

Is anyone able to confirm that the "bone" color of these bootsonline MTO is as muted as the photo suggests? http://www.bootsonline.com.au/LargeGraphics/B543EA1000.gif Anyone have real-life pic to share? Kind thanks.

I wish there were some MTO options for the Dynamic Flex models. Hint. Nudge.

Are the "new" Dynamic Flex boots a different shape in the toe box? As in, more of a chisel? They also look like they have a shorter heel than my Craftsman's.
If so, mine are going on B&S!

 

[Hayward]

Having worn both Comfort and Dynamic Flex Craftsmans I don't notice a difference in heel height, but the DF supports the heel better, at least for me. They basically feel like sneakers.

As far as aesthetics go, the lines of the DF Craftsman seem a bit softer. Note that they also make a DF Turnout, with a round toe.

 

[ap10046]

Softer? Really? I thought they were a tad more "agressively chisled"
I also find my heel a layer too high, are you saying the DFs have the same heel height?

how wide are the H fits in RM?

I can't say how they compare with the G in Barker - but I have wide feet and have found the H not quite wide enough for me. They make one boot in an "X" width called the tambo, which is really wide - wide enough for me, but the last is more blundstone-ish as a result.
