That should be the same leather in theory just has a glazed finish on it … “toscenello glazed horse rump”My sentiments exactly. Should be and are, are 2 very different things. Nick's doesn't mess around.
In pictures and in person this Toscanello color looks great. Just...you know, don't get it wet or this brown shoe polish, or whatever they used will wipe straight off. It's pretty maddening.
I’ve always said the stead leathers don’t go well with Truman’s. They don’t last. That’s why I’m pretty pumped about the horween tea core chukka I made to come in the mail. I know that leather is more pliable and longer lasting then those stead suedes. The ramblers are cool but when I here “hand finished” it makes me think stead just spray painted hints of black in the leather.
I think this question needs to be brought up with this brand. Is it anything more then a side gig or side hustle for them? Nicks and whites that’s a full time job. it’s my opinion truman has a mixed identity. Usa hand made boots shouldn’t be made from low quality materials.it defeats the purpose. Double down on putting the best materials in the boots or watch grant stone take the lead. It’s not Truman’s fault it’s our fault our expectations are off
