Hey, just a question. Shoebuy used to deduct money from my bank, but when they ship out my order, they revert the process.

For example, it used to be ( when still in process)

Ledger amount : $400
Available amount: $150.


Then now after it is being shipped out, it become
Ledger amount : $400
Available amount: $400.

Any idea what happened? I checked , its not my payroll or smth.


Any help? Don't know is they accidentally refund to me or?
Will UPS ask me for money during delivery? Pls advise, cause i dont carry cash around...


ok nvm, they deduct alr .

after about 10 wears of my red wing 8138, I have decided to clean my rw and apply Obenauf's lp as strongly recommended here.

i'm afraid to clean my red wing 1907 now that i've seen your photos. will the new colour be permanent? or will it revert back to its original colour?

if it reverts back how long roughly does it take? :(

Different type of leather will react differently to the obernauf LP.
My 9106 did not darken as much.

thanks, have a good day sir ;)

I need about 3 months to give you a proper answer for your questions :D But from what I feel, the colour will stay but will lighten up. Probably won't revert back to the original raw colour.

The lp have to stay within the leather to protect the leather right.. if its lighten up probably it shows that lp already wear off..

No regrets applying lp, it gave me the feels for my boots are fully protected. ;)

Actually like the color before applying lp leh..
after lp like too dark liao.. :(
just my personal preference tho..

if you happen to own a 8138, do think twice when applying lp.. for me there is no much different before and after both looks great for me. actually I prefer the one with lp, it even out the colour.

before it was like having uneven colour and patches with darker tone. and now it have a better contrast with the white stitches and most importantly now you can assure that your boots are well protected ;)
