reckon?
ammended to 100. wasnt too sure

Anyone know if Paraboot ever produced the Milly in black?

Love the shape.

I know they produce the low top Michael shape in black but I think I might get more wear out of the ankle boot shape.

They did one with pony hair but not sure if a pure black leaather pair and not UK release

If I were getting my first pair of paraboots I'd just go for their classic design. I don't mind those Milly boots but I'd go for their classic.
Good luck wearing out a pair of paraboots - they're built like tanks. I wear my brown ones most but am greeting some of the furry ones but that's because I know I love the shape

Could be a bargain for someone

Shell cordovan wingtips made by Crockett and Jones.

Probably not the right place for this, but they wouldn't look right in the trainer thread. Finally got my hands on these cole haan shoes, with a lovely Nike lunarlon sole, so I have something smarter to wear which my feet won't complain about, as I've never come to terms with leather soles...
Currently wearing the brown leather ones at work and enjoying them immensely..

aimed at me?
they are the original grand chukka, and the toes are plain..

@dubtap can take a running jump. Currently in love with them, super comfortable and smarter than what I would normally wear so win all around...

I tried the all black lunargrands on (plain toe) but couldn't find my size at the outlet store. Found the sizing to be a bit off. Lunar sole is very comfortable.

had one forumenger buy mine for me in the states, ship to new york and then had another forumenger bring them back to london so I could collect from them..
saved me £150+ in shipping and customs

did a check on Cole Haan's website and a couple of others, and went with my size in Nike's since they own them, and they fit perfectly..

Kept the boxes just in case they came up the wrong size so I could sell on if needed...

and as you say they are very comfortable, though the soles on these ones feels super slippy, might need some time to bed in..

Grim and grimmer... 🤢

If they were all black you'd be all over them..

he left you alone...

:)

Fine looking boot

thanks, hard to justify the price, but i thought wtf..

Some ol' Dolce's got a bit of work done today. Currently soaking in leather oil or I'd have better shots.

Anybody here with little feet? I have a pair of Size 7 oxblood brogues by Barker going, make an offer.

They have been repaired previously, and had a horrid piece of stick-a-sole on them. I've removed the stick-a-sole and scoured off the majority of the glue, then polished the leather with carnauba wax. The leather is solid and can be worn as-is until the heels need replacing.

These are made in England old school, and whoever polished them did the old black polish in the gaps thing to bring out the brogue details. You could saddle soap it off if you like.

I'm not in London so these would be donation to the forum + cost to post. Please wait while I upload loads of pics one by one from my mobile...

Not sure how to price them so make an offer, bearing in mind the offer +/- post is donation to the forum.
