All Speed Hook Boot
I just purchased a boot from a local brand here in egypt and it came with no eyelets so I customized them at a local cobbler and decided what if all of them were speed hooks. So this is the end result.



AB alligator?
These look vintage but I’m no pro at boots. Anyone know when AB used boxes like this with script?




Leather boot restore, maintenance and conditioning advice request
purchased these red wing boots last year and scuffed them up pretty good from working in the driveway, i wear them almost everyday.
does anyone have advice for how to correct these scuffs? and correcting the boot to be a uniform color again
also on proper maintenance and conditioning.
product recommendations for the boot would also be helpful from any knowledgeable parties









Are these legit anything!?
My dad found these at a thrift store years ago. They are heavy, real leather, but I cannot identify them. Every image search I have done results in Red Wing / Irish Setter, but I can’t find anything with the same stamp/placement, same cutout for bending, or the same stitching/leather edge around the shaft of boot. I am driving myself crazy 🤪
Best way to re-waterproof Meindl Bernina?
I have utterly weird feet. Short, wide, high arches. Hooves, basically.
Meindl Bernina fits well. But had one spot needing shoe stretcher spray which has taken the wax out of the leather I think. I have re-applied wax twice now (once Meindl Sportwax, once Grangers). But the leather definitely still absorbs water. Not being Goretex lined I need the water repellency.....
Advice?
Thanks!


what boots could these have a chance of being? (1920s-1930s)
sorry for the limited pics, my great granddad. Worked a couple jobs during the depression







Brannock help
Hi all,
Brannock measurements taken this past Friday. Can someone confirm the measurements? Thanks!










Very disappointed by 1000 miles
I am a biker and I like thick leather shoes that you can also walk casually in. I've had the wolverine 1000 miles for 2 months now and have put maybe 300 miles of motorbike riding on them and maybe 10 miles walking. They already look terrible. The left boot with the shift lever is discolored and cracking. Creasing was bad from day 1.
I literally have 4 year old $60 boots from Italy that look better than the 1000 miles after 2 months...
Replacement for Taft Woven Johdpur
