You are normally the essence of cool. I reckon you have Covid-19 and it’s affected your dress sense

Yes, what happened there? Sunday lunchtime drink with Zak Dingle?

That's very impressive... I take it you prefer brown boots??

Nothing against black, I just don't own any black jackets.

Coooool

What makes your boot collection so awesome is that all of them have been around awhile and are well worn and look great. Wish I had a bunch of jackets that looked that good!

I've said it before... these boots are amazing, I've worn these most days this winter in all kinds of weather and they are simply indestructible.

A couple of years ago, I "antiqued" these boots. I didn't feel like I finished them properly, but today I had a couple of hours to spare. I never spit-shined my boots in the military, but never too late to learn something new...

Damn....!!!
Blinded me ... had to put on my sun glasses

'Maintain'.

This is addictive... I had to shine the rest of the boots....

Those are some nicely shined boots !
Almost hate to wear them outside

Thanks! It's actually hard to get a good picture of them, there are so many different shades of brown/cordovan. My wife agreed they were the nicest looking boots she's seen. Makes it twice as rewarding to know I put all those layers of colors on them from scratch.
