Hi man i believe it will on pressure/usage but really like that shape and just let it go and see. I think it will stay more or less like on my buco meaning no collaps unless you force it imho. Thx Sir

About 9 months ago I ordered these. Send them pictures from their own blog and told them my shoe sizes from different brands, and it was a go. Surprisingly they didn't ask for a deposit, so after about 6/7 months I asked if they forgot about me. They didn't, and here they are.
natural latigo leather on CN last, with soft toe and a thin dress half sole and catspaw heels. The leather is very thick and sturdy. When I first put them on, I couldn't get my left foot in, so started to sweat. Used a plastic bag and slid right in. The fit is very narrow especially on the instep. They needed to get stretched a bit so I put on 3 pairs of thick ski socks and a plastic bag and I crammed my feet in. Tried to wear them like that for a few hours per day. That didn't really work. So filled it up with warm water let it soak for half an hour and put them on to work, from 9 till 9. Immediately I felt the leather to loosen a bit. They didn't dry in one day, it needed 3 days to completely dry. I still needed to use a plastic bag to get them on for the next 4 days, during those days I put on and off severall times. Now its all good, still snug but I guess thats the CN fit. Some pictures, the last one came from Clinch to show they were done and cough up the dough. Looking at the pictures I see that the left boot is a bit shorter, The left boot is also the hardest to get in. |
