I liked them. Soft toe horsebutt is where it's at. I don't need flashy texture or colors, just a last that fits.

Actually, I'd love to see pictures of the dark brown Maryam makeup with some real wear. Anyone?

Did you link the right boot? Those are neither dainite nor boondockers :-D
The snuff is a new model. The dainite sole boondocker looks restocked in most sizes.

Oh no, I was linking those because they're new! I put the also for the dainite boondocks since thats just a restock.

I hit these with 30m of brushing per boot, but I think they probably need a condition too

I think it was this video (memory being tested now) that showed the diminishing brushing returns over time:


Probably true, this pair had sat in shoe bags for ~year so the bloom was wild. They mostly stopped improving around the 15m mark per each boot, but I kept it up anyways cause why not.

Cant blame you! And that wasn’t intended as a “you’re doing it wrong” dig. I’d probably have done the same in the new boot excitement.
