I know it's the zip kind, but those I like it's the old fashion no zip type. Maybe next time I visit AE factory get the Cordovan one

What's your take wearing army boots??

You can wear miltary boots as street fashion but please don't wear SAF issued ones.

Wearing full grain leather boots will not be warm at all, even with wool socks. Leather is breathable and allow your feet to be dry. Wool socks keep your feet warm when cold and keep your feet dry when warm.

This I have to agree. The only time I wear no.4 boots (the non gortex) with civilian clothing is because I have to rush off somewhere very urgently after ict...

And I feel that should try to avoid the tuck in with the super skinny jeans...

The Bexley Enfield boots got to wait for a while. Recently acquired 2 pairs. Before my family kpkb for taking up shoe cabinet space.

They look nice! 2 for 229EU right. Great buy. But too bad I need a size6, so I can only drool on them... :(
I would definitely love to get the Enfield... Any recommendations for something smaller size and look that pattern de? Preferably good leather for lasting wears

When the time come will find someone to share the 229.

At this price point, cannot think of alternative for you.

Any recommendation to get Saphir pommadier dark brown coloured cream? It's meant for this pair of shoes.

Actually, I have no idea of how to go about colouring over it. It has shades of brown, darker brown and black. Any advice, if I wanna keep its colouration as original?

Dry? Somehow my feet isn't too dry.
With doc mar boots or my timberland boots also like that considering temps here for me is -7C. Lol
Diff feet diff strokes. Lol
Wool socks still like that.

Then again if sit on desk not walking maybe dry.
But walking around always not too dry.

Same problem as my current pair.

I suggest using neutral for 1st layer and use the lightest shade of brown on your shoes now as 2nd and 3rd coat.

It MIGHT get darker after awhile but I am guessing that can't be helped.
