My boot obsession is overshared in footwear thread.
Been slowly selling a lot of them.
Got about 3 more pairs to sell before I reached the point where I told myself I can order a pair of Nicks Urbans Drifters.
There is a small boot maker from Columbia called Bordon that’s on IG. They do preorder batches and make a sick looking Chelsea boot with a lug sole that I might try in 2023.

so I absolutely hate speed hooks on boots. I hate the idea of fuckin hooks at my feet. I know, when laced they don't really catch on anything but I am constantly walking like a damn cowboy trying to make sure my feet never come close to each other.
Anyone know if it's terribly complicated to replace hooks with standard eyelets? I've got a couple of cheapish pairs of boots I would consider practicing on. It's basically to the point where I don't wear them out of fear of eating shit.

Okay, so I'm starting renovations on my house in a few and it'd be real swell if I managed to shift the last few pieces I'm clearing out. If any of the euros are interested in a Norse Projects anorak or that Kapital Ring Coat, drop me a line and I'll cut you a BIL-deal. Great for anybody trying to look like either Liam Gallagher or a ring wraith.

That said I would just take them to a cobbler or get some regular eyelets off of Amazon or leather working site of your choice and you could probably use a little hand held press or get a big heavy duty press.

I have discovered that I fuck heavy with Banana Republic outlet stores.
Also I want a damn pair of the Red Wing Blacksmiths but it aint comin anytime soon. Got some Nike Air Pegasus in black and it rules to have finally found a decent pair of casual tennis shoes that fit well

I always preferred the blacksmith to the iron ranger, more utilitarian.
You get Pegasus 83s or the 39s?

Iron Rangers look a lil too yeehaw for my tastes, and it seems like a lot of em have those flimsy leather soles.

Sorry, but the long tongue is the true samba and, yes, I will judge you if you try to fold it or modify it in any way.

90% of people wearing basketball shoes right now do not play basketball, same goes for skate shoes and everything else. Stop being an insecure baby.
