OK, I have a weird experience and I wanted to see if this has happen to anyone else.
I have the copper task Smokejumper collabs, and they were fucking stiff as shit the first time I wore them the other day. Today they feel totally different. They are considerably more broken in. I was expecting them to take about 5 wears at the very least to get glove soft, now I am wondering… They feel so different already, I think they're most of the way to being broken in--still some stiffness, but wow, what a difference.
Did one of you assholes break into my house and "borrow" my boots yesterday and walk 50 miles in them?
It COULD be that they were close to this by the time I took them off the other day but I really don't think so. Odd. A pleasant surprise at any rate.

It's one of my favorite leathers for sure. I got to see them at the 3Sixteen pop up. How do you like the 2030 last? One of the most beautiful leathers on one of the worst lasts(for my feet) ever haha.

Very nice!
After a rough and tumble night out last Friday I got some nice scuffs and a few spots on my roughouts.
I then sprayed them with water and gave them a brush with my horsehair brush, which previously has brushed neatsfoot and Obenauf's LP on some of my engineers. This had a very subtle and attractive effect on the nap of the roughout and evened out the boots so that they looked new again. It wasn't like a full blown dubbing but they look awesome.
Wore them today, I just love them. The feel so good on my feet and look great, the color complements both jean contrast stitching and my A-2, which I also wore today and will be wearing all Fall.
Tonight I am treating them with a water-based silicone spray from Obenauf's to winterize them a little. I'll be giving them three treatments punctuated by hour long cures. I'll post the results on the copper task collab threat to any who are curious about weatherproofing roughout.
