Picked up some new trumans. Still not sure how I like their last compared to some other faves but giving them another shot

Nice boots. I like grained leather like that. Don't see it so often these days, but I always found it easier to break in, and never seemed to be prone to cracking with time across the top of the toes the way some smooth leathers can.


Thank you! It is navy blue Shinki horsehide.

Ah, Shinki! Looks very similar to the blue Vicenza. Got my eye on a blue jacket eventually....

spotted these for sale, somehow loving the two tone.

probably wont buy as I never have luck with engineer boots. I just like the feeling of snugly laced boots. and without facings or other details, I feel like they're sometimes boring to look at on your feet.

It is nice hide - I really like it. I wear the blue most of any jacket...it is not the usual, but it is surprisingly easy to wear with many different outfits and footwear choices.

About to depart on my first trip abroad, Spain & UK, where I’ll finally be breaking in 2 deadstock items (jacket was worn but basically as new). Can’t wait to put miles on both, HH Buco and Endicott Johnson cap toes.

Out of sight. Game over combo. Friend, please take the time if to lubricate all the hardware on the jacket. The pencil approach is the best with your jacket. If you already did a good lubrication? Please slowly work the teeth and sliders and pulls slowly so that the graphite can work its way in.
