that should be the best price in sg le.

But i think i will settle it in hk bah, coz the authorised distributor selling for 1960hkd, cheaper still

any quality difference between a moctoe and round toe? cos i read from somewhere that round toe with much lasting than moc toe cos its 1 piece throughout and not 2 pieces joined together. of cos moc toes are super lasting already but will a round toe beat that? just curious...

only prob is how to bring it back. The weight and size of box, dunno how to stuff into luggage sia...

If the hkd drops again, the saving is more than that sgd60 wor
But its going back up, thanks to that stupid kimchi nuke

hey guys, i ytd vormitted on my RW,
is it ok if i just clean it with warm water using a cloth,
or need re-apply mink oil ?
TIA.

 

[kazuki666]

sorry to hear that.

i think normal wipe with a damp cloth should do the job.
I notice too much mink oil doesnt do gd to the leather also coz it softens it...

 

[goat1991]

would like to know what size should i get for RW if i am wearing a 10UK clarks DB?

I guess blisters are part and parcel of wearing them... :S
not sure abt the rest, but i am wearing SAF black socks in them. They are abt the thickest (and foc) i know of

dun tink it will be foot rot so long as you let yr skin have some air and put plaster on it lor..
bt seem like wearing thick socks is only the solution..the chio bu sale girl at suntec also wear thick socks which she is still settling down with the pain for weeks....

hmm....
i heard alot abt ns footrot, but peers my batch never really go it, i guess we were still particular abt hygiene at that time

I believe so long observe regular cleaning and airing, should be ok bah

coz ur skin kena the foot rot fungus lah... dry feet properly before wearing, apply daktarin powder (to kill the fungus) to feet then wear socks (clean socks everytime), end of day use potassium promagenate (purple solution) to wash the feet. that will help to prevent/control.

 

[madmanz1]

wear thick socks n tie ur boots tight, nv got any blisters

 

[mikeeeey]

nv wore red wings before, is it difficult to take out like saf boots?

cos im really concerned about having difficulties wearing and taking it out as i sometimes got to go several places in a days that require me to take out my shoes
