Looked to me like the ALTI20 was just for one day...there was a banner at the top of their site that day promoting that code, but the banner was gone the next day when I checked back.

Makes sense, I was out of town and got back last night. Finally catching up on all the internet forums haha

Wondering if you still have these, and if so how they have worn this last 7-8 months?

Moving to Oahu coupled with hip surgery have resulted in these sitting idle in my closet longing for wear ?. I think I have about 3 total wears so far and nothing significant to report as of yet. The workshoe butt leather is probably the most rigid and strong leather I’ve ever owned on a boot though. Just feels like armor on my feet and the break in is tough.

Here's a pic of mine after some wear, about 5. Not a fan of the way this particular pair is breaking along the quarters.

Thanks for providing that info and the pics!

I have a pair of Canada West CXL Moorby boots that show that same kind of break in that area. I'm OK with it - hope to eventually wear all my boots to the point where they look well-enjoyed and lived in!!! (Now to accomplish that, step one is to stop buying new boots...lol.)

Oh, I didnt even bother to read it. Dopke and team are cool, but I just care about specs when looking to make any footwear purchase at this point.

From experience with Doppki it's most likely the latter, but it is business and people's livelihoods after all
