nephew,
may i ask why?

I don't think I need two pairs of ravello longwings. You never know though, the eyelets and the sole do present a different look

I'm envious of the shine as well and nice job with the laces.  Are they round boot laces?

nephew,
good shine

Boot laces are Outdoor laces from Kiwi in brown/yellow, from Nordstrom Rack (7eyelet, I think)

Thank you, Uncle!! Nothing much yet compared to your collection, but I'm trying!

These look awesome! I love the brass eyelets.
I really hope they sold out in my size... or else I'm in trouble.

What products and method did you use?

Mac Method and the occasional Renovateur application. And lots more brushing.

Might have given them an initial coat of Meltonian neutral shoe cream when first purchased, but can't remember. Really just Mac + Reno.
