ok, at least its not that i got wrong sizing...
So i had to loose the laces and also tie it lower.


Anyway, curious how u all usually tie the laces for RW. Mind sharing some pics?


And ya, my office colleagues almost all caught sight of my RW and went wah wah. I guess the white soles are a little catchy. But one of them commented that it doesnt seem matching in office attire, that one i kinda expected lah, coz RW boots are chunky...

And ya, do u guys do anything to maintain the white sole? Like wiping it???

lol. it'll get grey after awhile.. no point whiping it.

But since it's your office wear.. you can wipe it i guess.

But hor i noticed when wearing today, my socks are pulled down constantly, into the shoes. The back of the boots keep dragging socks inwards. Any idea why so???

toes not that bad wor, maybe coz my feet smaller, BUT meatier. Thus the arcs and top usually more tight

My 5 pairs all got hole at the heel to ankle area lei. lol.

For me, i pull my socks to the highest then fold them down. Meaning there's 2 layers at my ankle there..

But at the end of the day when i remove my boots, i realize that the ankle there has only 1 layer. lol.

hmm...

it seems that we both have the "prob" of the socks being dragged into the boots... It gets abit uncomfortable for me coz can feel the "extra sock" on the bottom of the foot...
