BTW do you guys also condition the inside of your boots and if you do how do you apply stuff to it? Its kind of difficult.
I only wear boots casually so not much wear and tear I dont think I should bother with doing the inside. Thoughts? Really want to hear from senior members here! :D

yeah i've never heard of doing something like that

No? Why would you do such a thing?

I was reading online and found it somewhere and the guy said to condition the inside as well.. I guess not haha THanks man

This question has been asked many times on StyleForum. If you wish you can re-ask on the Shoe Care Thread: **The Official Shoe Care Thread: Tutorials, Photos, etc.**

Or you can read this post by @DWFII from a very short thread: #5

The answer is yes, the interior of your shoe is leather, it should be conditioned. Your feet sweat, sweat contains salt, and salt deteriorates leather.

Shrug. Maybe my feet just don't sweat but I never had a problem with liner leather or heard of a need for it. I mean, does anyone really treat the INSIDE of their shoes once a month (like that thread suggests)?

Question for those of you with the same size in the 1035 and 2040 last. What is your experience on length and toe box width comparison?

Thx guys and happy Friday!

Well, it's not part of my regular routine, but if I see a part of the lining getting dry, I just dab it with Renovatour when working on the shoes. It's leather, so I guess same rules apply as for the outside. No polish needed though!-)

You probably have already seen it but the plain toe version of that is available at division road. I prefer the plain toe myself and I'm doing a sort of variation on that for MTO.
Thanks, yeah I've seen that one. I actually typically prefer the cap versions but I'm still considering the plain toe. What MTO is this? SF? Been out of the loop for a while.

No. Viberg did a MTO through Freeman's Sporting in early July. The SF MTO is still being worked out.

I have the same question as Duck, above. I have a 2040 and a 2005 D width and would like to hear from others who could offer fit comparisons to the 310 last which Division Road offers. Thanks.
