ALDEN

[Guest]

@dave:

I really wanted those Blackbird milkman boots, but they ran out of my size just when I got the courage up to purchase them.  Those boots at Context look great, but $717 has me scared off.  It seems like the price for a cordovan boot went up from 650 to over 700 in less than a year.  I ended up buying the calf Epaulet Brixton boot instead.

I think the milkman boots were going for $649. When I'm shelling out that much, I'm not going to fret over a difference of $70 here or there. I might just wait for the M&Ms. If the context boots were Black Shell Cordovan I'd probably have gone that way.

Ultimate Jumper Boots from LeatherSoul. My cell phone pics just don't do these guys justice.

also, Finn, check out some tan suedes, hmmmm

[Guest]

Yeah, but I'm pretty sure Finn wants to avoid the bleeding issue he had with his RWs. Don't get me wrong, those are beautiful boots, but it would be a shame to fork out the coin and not be able to wear them with your favourite jawnz.

At least with a dark leather you can mitigate the visual affects of the inevitable.

I never understood why people are afraid of indigo stains…

[Guest]

Well, the argument can be made that if you are willing to spend $500 on a pair of boots then you should be able to afford to wear them and endure the consequences that arise from everyday use. However, for some, exceptional quality and aesthetic is a luxury….and sometimes luxuries get babied. haha.
