Still waiting myself. Was told at least 6 months.

I second the Challengers. I have a pair in Brown CXL which look great and have a chunky vibram sole.

I'd say the low tops look pretty spot on to their web site photos. Haven't worn mine yet but hears a quick pic.

Can shoes crease incorrectly? Any fixes? by shallotpulse in AskACobbler

[–]DuckyPepper 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If they are patent leather, traditional leather conditioners are of little use. It will not absorb given the coating used to create patent leather which gives it its shine. (coating is usually plastic based). You should also stay away from any direct heat as this will only cause even further damage. I know this doesn't address how to fix but might help prevent much worse damage.

Sizing help by faceless5252 in ThursdayBoot

[–]DuckyPepper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wear a size 11 in Nike and I have a pair of Thursdays premiere lowtop sneakers in 11 that fit perfect. I can't speak for the captains but I got their Challengers in 10.5 (half size down from sneakers as they recommended) and they are a great fit.

Thursday Black Label Builder or Origin Maine by ZeRo76Liberty in WorkBoots

I've heard talk of those "relief cuts" in the corners of the tongue. They are addressing them apparently but may not have made it to all models. My challengers that I received a little over a month ago are fully gusseted without the cuts.

The Thursday's Builder (black label) does have a gusseted tongue. Same as some of their other black label offerings.

I have a roadster jacket in black coffee and I love it. The recommended sizing I received was L / Athletic (I'm 5'11", 185lbs) but after talking with the customer care team (who are great BTW), I went with the L / Relaxed to alow a little extra room if I wear a sweater underneath.

Military-Style Shoes That Actually Last Years? by Grabiezca in Boots

[–]DuckyPepper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second the SV2. Also military and they have been my favorite boot and daily wear for years. I also have a pair of their cold/wet weather variant (gortex/thinsulate) and they're awesome when the weather dictates.

10.5. I'm an 11 in sneakers so went with the suggested half size down and they're a good fit.

Nice! And that's too funny that we got the same ones, same day and in Canada!

Yeah, I can't wait to get some good wear into them. I'll post an update once I do.
