Happy Friday forum pals. Some cap toe bluchers fill the bill.

I think the shop should have rejected both pairs and not made them available for retail sale. I think you should have reject them too. I'm sorry if they were shipped to you as new shoes.
I agree that the shop should have inspected them, but they should not have passed factory QC in the first place. I ended up returning Indies but decided to keep the captoes; price was good and with some vigorous conditioning I think I made them work.
Maybe I am just not very lucky with boots; shell Higgins Mill I ordered last week from AE arrived with a tear on the vamp :-(

Are these the Barrie last version currently on their website for future orders? There is no photo for these on their website. You may want to offer ($ell) them yours!
Yes, that’s it: Barrie.
Hopefully Steve puts his own up soon. He seems a capable photographer.
Not sure if he’s still taking size requests since i received mine wednesdayafternoon. He seems to stick to D width.
i placed my pre-order back in january.

i must admit, these being my only all-eyelet boot - took me a bit longer than usual to tie them this morning but brass is badass for eyelets!

I've already been back and forth with Steve. He doesn't currently have my size. I'm debating whether I have the patience to wait a year or not. I think I already know the answer...

Anyway, yours are awesome! Enjoy!

Happy Saturday forum pals. Laced up and ready for the trials and travails of a pumpkin patch with the grand kids.
