This may have been covered somewhere in the previous pages, but I wasn't able to find it doing a search. I was curious, has anyone tried changing the color of the white stitching on any of the Indy's using polish? If so, how did it come out, how do the boots look? Any pictures?

These look nice. But what last? I'd ask Shoemart but they don't respond to emails. Or seem to list the blasted last!

I called them, talked to one of the owners, it is a Hampton last. Some times it takes a while to get the info up. They also have a Natural CXL Chukka in on Barrie last with the crepe sole.

Here ya go, I just used a little brown polish. The white tends to come back, so you may want to do it every couple of months or so.
