Footwear to go with our jackets

Sorry for double posting but I wanted to share some pictures of my Sendra engineers that I re-colored a while ago to better match my leather jackets(from CXL#8 burgundy to a dark brown). I'm super happy with the result, and now after some wear the color seems to have stuck great(I see now that one strap may need another go)!

Some pictures to show the difference:

That's an interesting and well-executed re-dye of those nice Engineers.
Color #8 (Cordovan - Burgundy) is a highly appealing color initially at least to my eyes. However in my own practical experience, it's somewhat a difficult color to "live with" in real life. While I've not had many boots this color, I have owned several Aero jackets in color #8, in a couple "shades" of it as it does vary. All have moved along.

That's likely why with the Whites Nomads I ordered, I chose the brown, seems easier to pair with overall.

Thanks man.

I agree 100%, love the color of it(may be my favorite color from Horween) but I do own a pair of Service boots in that exact leather which is enough for me :D
