Oh yeah for sure, I look forward to the 'wear' showing.......I just don't want anything negative to happen to the leather though and cut its life short. Think I'll be ok?

I've had a ton of CPs......don't do that ****. If you want BOOTS, that's definitely not the way to go. I'd say used Guidi is going to be your best bet in that range. You're going to have to be patient though and wait for your size to pop up.

thanks for the tips man!! i was looking at these 2 but they dont have that solid appeal look. Will Guidi be suitable with my outfit tho ? I usually wear gitman shirts and chino and APC PS, but will be getting TOJ minimalist DR and bomber http://www.gravitypope.com/shoes/pro...bat-ankle-boot http://www.gravitypope.com/shoes/pro...-training-boot

Neither one of those are worth that price, seriously.


Eh.....gitman shirts and chinos are NOT going to rock 'rugged' boots at all man. That's just not a compatible look...something like that is going to vibe better with chukkas, sneakers, brogued boots, suede derbies.....all that stuff, a 'softer' look per say.

Oh the other hand, a pair of black guidis, your APCs, a white v neck and that TOJ would look dope as hell.



EDIT-Erk those aren't worth retail. On 50% sale, yeah, good choice.

After seeing this, I'd suggest the Ricard boots from Paul Smith.

Thanks bro

Will have a hunt for a pair of Guidi's but quick question - What size should I be looking at for Guidis? For a guide, I wear Clarks DB in UK 9 US 9.5, could go to UK 8/US 8.5 but very fitted. Sperry in UK8 / US 9.

No chino's YET (deciding) but that toj apc vneck outfit sounds baller as

If you guys are going the F&B route, please check out the basic buttero workout- It's solid with fantastic shape/design. OR scour SZ's b&s for some ridiculous deals but, do your hw on sizing first .

Size up 1-2 sizes for Guidi.

Big +1 to Buttero, I had a pair before and for the price the quality was AWESOME.

Yeah I'm thinking about buttero workboots too

Arknets has quite a few buttero boots that are great. They have a wide range of styles and materials, but the price is twice that of barneys....

Buttero B1011 Boot

Size up 1-2 sizes for Guidi.
Yeah I'm probably a large US8.5 and eckblk is a small US8.5. I have two pairs of guidi that I wear regularly a size 42 combat boots and a size 43 ankleboot. Barring any size variations I can fit in both, but the combat boots are a bit of a pain to get on and also after wearing them for extended periods of time (10+ hrs) they start to hurt quite a bit. It bites into the back of my foot etc and this is with extremely thin socks. I'd recommend sizing up 1.5 in general at least and safely 2 if you are on the larger side of US8.5. I have a pair of 43.5 derbies I have yet to try on since I've been away from my normal residence. I think they'll still work, but I may have to insole. +1 to Butteros as well. I have a pair that I quite love though they get less wear these days. Mostly because I'm too cheap to vibram and I kinda want to vibram. Then again the heel is gigantic so maybe I can wear at it a bit first. They might still fit my foot the absolute best.. though my CCP sidezips are a pretty great fit with thicker socks.

I'm taking delivery of some Rider black cordovan balmoral boots this fall... $1000+ USD... I will post when I get them.

Hate the buttero heel.

do not buy cp officer boot.

training boot is cool, but a sneaker - not really a "baller" boot
