Predator Pacific that is ofcourse, you buncha dirty pervs! Lol, well ladies and gents I introduce to you, that deep blue burnished sheen PP ive been itching for since I bought these bad mammajammas. Indeed I did cheat and expedite the process a bit, but im glad I did cause these things look and feel much better meow! What say ye? Happy Sat yo.
Figured id post up a few pics fot you guys to see what Angelus leather balm is all about on kudu. Darkens very little about the same as bicks, ut seems to condition a bit better anf def has a better sheen qhen brushed. Thin coat and ten min later you can brush them to a luster like this. Who else uses or had tried it? It reminds me of VSC fo sho!
So after having bought my 55last PP 8in MTOs and absolutely loving the way the 55 last fit my feet i was 150% hooked and had the Nicks bug! So, ofcourse I did what any logical (fiscally irresponsible and ILLogical) boot fiend would do, and scoured the web further for my next fix. It came pleasantly at the result of this subs BST page, in the form of another (basicly) new unworn pair of 8in T55 MTO's in cypress #8. These things are pretty special. If I thought the 55 last cap toe MTO's fit me so well then the t55 is equivelant of Matt's foot nirvana. This leather felt like it was a bit stiffer, and or thicker upon first handling, and unboxing, but after the lacing process and getting them on foot, I was pleasantly suprised to feel that the are in fact a little more comfy than my PP-55's at least oob. I thought, well maybe its cause they were previously worn a touch, but the original owner listed in ad he only wore them around the house a couple times briefly thats it. I think thats stretching the truth if anything about wear time as the left boot tongue, had no visible indication it had ever been folder over and the boot been laced. Also, one lace is uncut and had no marks from speed hooks or eyelets. Anyhow, these things fuckin rock, and I'm pumped about both my Nicks now. I paid almost the same amount for these as I did my PP-55's as well so thats an added feel good. What say ye??
Lol, was interested to see the Predator Pacific actuslly "Crocking" blue onto my new leather laces.... anyhow, that is all. Just thought it was interesting to see, as im not sure if ive noticed any of my other leathers doing this before out of 15 or 16 or so diff leather variations (boots) perhaps its cause the laces are light enough to see it here, who knows. Not this guy, but enjoy! Hope all have a nice weekend!
P.S- you now know my rough boot count, and I've got another pair of Nicks on the way from the BST page of this sub. is it bad if I bought 3 more pair of heritage boots and or shoes, since buying those Nicks, and before they could even get delivered? Asking for a friend..... but do you think they have a problem? Im a lil concerned about them. 🤣🤣
PSS- friend blames the long delivery times of usps for enabling him. Lol
Just been wearing but not everyday, and brushing. Thats it. They are def developing some character already!
So, I bought these recently hoping they would fix my hunt for thr proper fitting Truman hankering as the 55 last 12d TSB's i gave fit well but are just not as snug as id like them to be and they arent fully broken in yet so itll get worse. These are from b4 Truman went to the shittier hardware, tongues and such and have beautiful dianite soles that im not sure if Truman still offers? Either way, their all but unworn. Similar to the previous gent who bought them they just didnt fit the way id hoped so im listing them back up for grabs if anyone missed out. I put them on for 5 min or less walking around in my garage and knew long b4 I took them off they weren't gonna work for my stupid RF thats longer than my left. Otherwise they're darn near perfect, as can be seen by the sole thread and condition. Also, just bought another pair of nicks so the tryingnto thin the colle lion a whisker anyhow. 15+ pair of heritage boots is a bit out of hand. Lol, $250 o.b.o plus the ride.
Side note, the heels are really sleek and low profile on these in relation to the backstay and quarters which makes for a slick lookin and no effect to gate, I found anyhow. Fwiw.
