Thanks - I was thinking it's just the appalling model fit that's making it look odd, but perhaps you're right and I shouldn't take a chance.

They are pretty good actually. They use RiRi zippers and if I recall correctly leather felt substantial (reverse steer) on a pair I owned from A/W 09/10. Guys, I'm going to be ordering a pair of MA+ backzips for A/W soon and I can't decide on what leather. What do you guys think? plain calf (reverse calf also available)

Both looks nice, I kind of like the plain calf slightly better and I am usually like distresses boots more. The plain calf reminds me of oiled calf a bit so maybe that is why I am more in favor of it.

I'm actually looking for some distressed boots/derby that could replace my CP officers boots and that is why I need to contact you about Atelier Eck.
