Wow, listening to you guys talking abt upsize downsize, guess there is no chance for EEE to pull off in E then.

best is to go down to physical store and try for yourself. i might find the pain unbearable, you might find it just a lil bit of a squeeze. but of course, finding any width other than D to try on is difficult in SG... :o

Had a EEE pair donkey years back, believe now no need so big.
Just wondering if up one size and go for E will fit in.

1. Is the colour will return back to it original after a while ? Or it going to be permanently

2. If it going to be permanently what can i do to get back the original 875 " matt" colour

For mink oil, the color will appear changed drastically upon application, about 60% darker?. But it will lighten after a day or so, to about 30%? It will remain permanent like this then.. I still prefer obenauf lp

But most of the obenauf LP user said that this product will also darken the shoes colour right? If it going to be permanent no choice then it still looks pretty awesome.

Thank you bro

Yup..

LP will also darken but not as much as mink oil. Personal preference. :)

Hihi,

Dosnt revolve state that red wings will only be shipped to USA and Canada? Do I have to use a proxy and if so, does anyone here have recommendations and the estimated pricing?
