Did something today I haven't done in a very long time. Decided to hit some shell with a dear bone. I've become a fan of the occasional creases so there really hasn't been much reason for me to use the bone. However, I think I like the creases that conform to my feet a little better so while these Ravello Wings looked great (man, if that isn't redundant), I decided to see if I could smooth them out a little.......

Here's a quick before shot.......

The difference, especially on the right boot, is almost instantly noticeable. Having said that, in my experience, the old creases tend to return once you actually get the shells on feet. As such, I don't want to prematurely declare victory.

Worst case is that the revert back to the before shot, which is still pretty good from where I'm standing.

Happy Monday Gents!
