I added a hole to my straps when mine started slipping. It takes a little elbow grease to get to it but they wear so amazing when I do. Tiniest of heel slips, hard to even notice.
Maybe I'm reading too much into your expression
I've added a few tighter holes on 1 foot, we'll see. I'm okay with it slipping a bit now. It's slowly starting to soften up. Few more weeks and they'll be moulded to me and happy days :).
The facial expression; not one of my best, wasn't that bad tho. No blisters after a solid 2 hour's of walking, just a little raw.

One thing that I enjoy cosmetically about RCs is how high the ankle strap is. But it comes at a cost, it's not as functional/effective as it could be, at least for my feet. Ideally for optimal effectiveness an ankle strap should pull your ankle down so that it secures your heel. The "shin strap" of the RC doesn't really do that.

It's all goooood. Enjoying and learning along the way for sure. Won't be racing to buy another pair of engineers until these are seriously like slippers. They smell amazing, they look amazing, and they're amazing to strut around in. Bit fun to get on/off thanks to my high arches, but that's it up until last night's serious walk. Part of breaking in boots ::).

SSoL, Thanks. heel slip is @ the back where the heel rubs against the back of the boot.
seawolf, understand, thanks. I know this pair is the perfect size for me, just need to let the leather continue to soften/break in.
Friday, 9.5, they're not going anywhere, thanks for the offer tho ::). They're stunning boots that are crying for more attention, that's all
Snowy, you can actually help the molding process along by moistening the leather of the upper with warm water, either holding bit directly under a faucet, or actually filling a mister bottle (my preferred method) and hitting it several times to get it damp and then go for a stroll and do some squats each time you do this you will have the boots a little more broke in. Some leathers are better to do this with than others and the RCs are perfect for this type of treatment. Just my .02

Thanks snow!
Dry bones
Flat headSelf edge still has this flannel and I really urge you guys to pick it up. It has a nice feeling to it and I love the colors. It's definitely one of my favorite and most worn shirts. One of the few that I've never thought about selling.

Looks like this jacket from Real McCoys:

Well, seeing as you are a big fan of RMC, the mistake was easy to make

Hihi I am a big fan indeed but i like other well made goods too
To complete the story to the browns beach. I bought this in a 40, as no 38 was around. I experimented with a machine wash
using the wool program, length and sleeves shrank perfectly, chest didnt shrink horizontally. But its perfect now for layering with my denim jackets.
Dont try it at home if you want to have the jacket in original cut
I love short jackets so i am happy with it
