Footwear to go with our jackets

Today: The Real McCoys's Buco Engineers in Buttock Horsehide Lot. BA10010.

Note: A bit fragile boots in terms of leather and construction but still the most comfortable boots for my feet!

Those look fantastic. There's just nothing comparable to a well-worn and well-loved pair of boots. No faux-tina here.

I love the Alden snuff suede!

Ya man, its some lux stuff. My pair aren't as dark as they appear in this photo, but they've darkened a little bc I use Saphir Medaille d'Or waterproofing spray on all my suede shoes/boots.

I own two "snuff" suede pairs: an Alden (Indy) and a C&J (chukka). The Alden is way superior, especially regarding how the colour shade changes depending on light.
I also use the Sapphir D'Or Invulner for my suede shoes (and in general Sapphir products exclusively), great stuff.

Flame pandas landed. They are absolute tanks. Had to use the plastic bag method to get my left foot in. They’re gonna be a bear to break in.

That looks so good. The double row stitchdown looks so neatly done. How did the sizing go? Congrats!

* that ostrich boot looks so textured, it's like a skinned pineapple

From Hungary...

I have two pairs of "Dinkelacker´s" in their Shell Cordovan which I wear to the office. Very well made (as they should be given the price), but I continue to struggle with the leather. Whatever I try to treat them, they always appear somehwat dull and lifeless.

May give a go to the calf-leather version. Do you see any change in quality after the take-over from that investment co. some 2-3 years ago?

Shoes -The art of male footwear -

This the second best coffee table book on the market (after Cosmo Kramer's coffee table book about coffee tables)

I wish there was a book like this about leather jackets.

Thanks, it was a long 8 months! Sizing seems pretty good. I've got some heel slip but I hope it goes away as the boots break-in and flex. I sent Peng my foot tracings and I think he did a good job. The only critique I have is that I wish the shaft was a little narrower - the shaft width seems to be the one thing the Indo and Chinese makers haven't perfected yet. Otherwise, I love everything about these tanks.

I think they have a few left. The book was published last November. If you send an email to marcais@ oloeditions.com they'll send you a payment link.

I think you'll love it.
