Absolutely beautiful I can't wait to pick up a pair of cognac badalassi

** I can't say I blame you in not treating them thus far…. I plan to let mine go for as long as safely possible as well. Wabi Sabi..

Sick bastards, treating your boots like that 

[Bluegrass]

Those boots are soo nice.  I think I'm in love.

[Moonshine]

Your Badalassi boots are simply BADASSY!

Yeah that gradient from honey to burnt cinnamon as you move from toe to top of VEB's is making a strong case for that eh?

[tatmantall]

this wait is killing me. Can't wait for Japan to be able to Star Trek some shit over here to the states

Cheers, Moonshine!!

I can't wait for the early adapters to comment on sizing (Tat, MC) 

I am so impressed with what I see and read AND I am a cxl fan based on my experience with White's.  Hoping I might be able to squeeze into a 12 - if ever available again…

These boots are just gorgeous.

[mclaincausey]

VEB can also help with his sizing experiences. I think they're on the blog.

[Bluegrass]

Thx MC, I've read the VEB blog… also checking other forums - and eMailed Speedway (haven't heard back).  Lots of conflicting views out there, from TTS to run .5 big.  Of course the experience could be different for different sizes in the spectrum too... always an adventure, sometimes you just have to jump.

[mclaincausey]

I'll be very thorough when I post

[Snowy]

^You're awesome [that's not coming out right, meaning thanks  ]

[tatmantall]

Package Sitting at Chicago ISC for the past few days…. Man I dislike that place.

[Bluegrass]

Wow, nice….. happy for you - won't be long.

[mclaincausey]

Mine too. I'm out of town anyway but when I get back I'm hoping to scoop em!

Haha thanks Snowy

[tatmantall]

Boots are in… Usps came by while I was out to lunch so I go pay the customs and pick them up in a few hours... Pics soon to come

[superfuzz]

Awesome new tatman! Can't wait to hear/see how they fit. How much was customs?

[tatmantall]

A little over $60 usd

[superfuzz]

Oh that's not bad at all. Good to know.

[tatmantall]

Yeah it was certainly better than I was expecting…
