ah yes, can see they are frye now, the squared off toe and buckle. i mainly like the colouring.

david, what are the boots you have on??

i am guessing that if you buy an item in any country that is to be sent to a different country, that you are not liable for the origin countries sales tax (or you can claim it back). however, you may be liable for the destinations countries taxes.

thinking about it, the main factor is probably that i go around mostly in tennis shoes, so it is prob that im just not used to uncushioned footwear!

here are my lundhags: cool boots on non tarmac, although maybe i should have bought a lowa type military boot instead.

been out just got back and see ive missed lots of pretty pics!

i think my main problem with a lot of shoes is comfort. that isnt comfort when wearing, but comfort in walking. i really require something that is going to be easy to walk in, that doesnt drain my legs from just general to and froing. that is maybe why i like the idea of a non leather sole unit such as the commando?

my winter boots im currently using are some lundhags forresters and even though they have a vibram sole unit, they are still very clumpy on concrete. i've had all sorts of boots, even roper style brands including lucchese, justin, but they just dont deliver that level of comfort you can get with an artificial sole. the most impressive prob being some campers i had.

so bearing that in mind would you experts recommend anything? maybe some crepe redwings?

thanks for that, will look.. i actually like the c&j snowdon quite a lot

apart from the type of leather used on these, would you say they are a good quality boot?

thanks

anyone got any of these? grenson bleasdale... would like to see them broken in

if you are in the eu (which i am, uk) and you buy from inside the eu, you dont pay tax on goods. at least i hope not!!

if i were to buy from the us then i would pay 17.5% on the value.

for some reason i cant see that group pic.. (ok can now)

also, does jane really live in the jungle?

well i bought mine in my correct size. guy said i can swap or whatever no problem if they arent right. is likely i will give them a quick soak and hang dry so i can get that made for me shape. wait and see how they are out the box first.

im kinda hoping i dont like these too much, or its gonna be an expensive year!!

i often wondered what real diff between oni and oni-vedge was.. considering such a small price diff. i like the selvedge on the pockets though.. and it has a diff label.

the pbj puts me off because of having such small crotch area. i need to be able to breathe!

have ordered sorahiko one wash from paris. 330euro + 30 postage to uk. they didnt mention a sale there!! prob paying full price. oh well..

from the pics it doesnt look like the D&D stuff is that slubby. nice jeans though.

thanks for the offers/advice guys. i think for this one time, as i am unsure of my correct sizing, i might take a hit on the price for peace of mind. at least that way i can swap them nice and easy should i require a diff pair.

am gonna go for some indigo one wash sorahiko. is my correct size the best bet or are they likely to stretch a lot?

thanks

where are you based? this page is for the uk/europe distributors. sweden also has another outlet and the uk has a few. you can view links/styles etc. i think the contact number is for one of the stores in uk.

am a bit annoyed..

i wanted to buy a pair from 45rpm, but im in uk and as we already know they dont ship outside of usa. so i decide to speak to people in paris as they ship to uk and i wouldnt have to pay any taxes etc cos its from europe. however, i find out that they cost even more in euros than they do in dollars from america! 333 for sorahikos and 835 for jomons that is about £50 more expensive for sorahiko and £150 more for jomons.

oh well.. more money to spend i guess

was thinking about buying some pbj xx003, but am worried the rise wont be big enough. am currently wearing lvc47. can anybody comment on the difference? also are the known for being true to size?

thanks for any help

togged.com have quite a few models if you are based in the uk. obviously not the cheapest price you will find, but it cuts out some of the long distance shopping anxiety.

dwg, out of what you tried, did you find one that you liked more than others??

im in uk and have ordered from them. got a leather jacket came within a few days. good stuff!

great way to display models. good info.

quite like the imperial king raw actually, is something i hadnt looked at previously

i think we should have a "girls wearing jeans" thread :-"

i really think that there are some great designs out there for women in raw denim now, even just by going on the pics in this thread. maybe it is because they can get away with wearing more fitted styles?
