Just tried the new DC NST boots and it was great! Really can not turn down the temptation of NST boots.

Have a great weekend gents!

Little maintenance (aka damp cloth and brushing) for the natty indy boots today. These are my work horse boots, construction site etc. All the mud/dust etc comes off easy. Unfortunately the dark stains on thes sides are from my desk chair rubbing. Any advice on getting these out? Crazy that the white collar part of my job is the toughest on my footwear.

 

[Mr.Chest]

Glad to see everyone doing well! Been busy lately and haven’t been around much. Fun to catch up on all of the great pics and pickups.

Some color 8 chukkas the other day

I’d start with a mild cleaner conditioner like VSC and see how that goes. If stubborn maybe try renovateur but be careful not to go too far past the rub or you may take some color out.

DAMN, those are all nice LHS's.

Stunning lineup.
You’ll be hard pressed to find ravellos or anything else that look as good as your whiskey.

Always appreciate the words guys, thanks.

I am more annoyed that they literally plagerized my narrative. All done without asking me.

This is just bad on so many levels. Really hope this is not an SF member.

They look great! I’ve owned a lot of Whiskey Shell throughout the years. They all darken with time and these look exceptional Shawnc. Nice repair work.. can’t tell anything out of order, beautiful shoe. Wear and enjoy in good health my brother..

You are certainly an SME on whiskey shell Chip. I had to do some work on the finishing but I am pleased with the overall outcome.

First wearing. Man these are good.

Great boots Matt but it will be some time before I can look at one of your pic's without seeing Jim's shot of you taking the pic on IG.

Would absolutely love to own the whiskey Indy and the Ravello WTB. Pipe dream for mere peasants like me, but a man can dream.

Stellar lineup! Similar to BITJ, the Ravello WTB and Whiskey Indy would be at the top of my wish list.

You would be surprised. Most all of these boots fell in my lap. I was not on any “Special double secret list” for any of these boots and if it were not from the great members here I would not have any of them.

Happy Sunday shoe pals. Suede to go get a haircut before the big holiday.

Kid duty all day today - it can be exhausting with a 3 and 5 year old!

Natty CXL tankers for a stop to the liquor store (whiskey reload) and to grab pizza. I hope you gents are enjoying your weekends!

They are a beautiful Boot. No surprise that you can’t turn them down. Glad they fit well.

That’s a funny commentary. I am not sure I have a ton of CXL advice unfortunately.

Those are looking great Chest. The Antiqued 8 Chukkas was one of my first loves from LS’s 8th Anniversary.

Looks like quite a bit of brushing Matt. Great lineup.

Have a good Holiday Haircut. Looking good and as already stated your laces look great with the denim.
