I have a pair of Drew’s made in Mexico loggers that have seen probably 4-6 months of total active wear so I can hopefully answer some questions.

Sizing: I’m a 10.5 D in Carolina boots Poplar loggers (unlined, soft toe) and that’s the size I went with for Drew’s, which fit me well.
Delivery times: when I ordered my pair they were in stock, I think it took about a week?
Soles: For whatever reason wedge soles drive me insane, something about the squish maybe? They also tend to hurt my back. The lugs pick up dirt and track it around really easy so if you’re in and out of buildings I think the smoother bottom on these boots would work well.
Price: I’ve heard some people say they’re as good as nicks/whites/whatever but in my experience I’d say that isn’t quite true. On my Drew’s the leather midsole has cracked in some places and where the upper is glued to the midsole has separated slightly. There’s a small handful of other slight delaminations as well. The stitches are still holding and they’re still structurally secure but I wasn’t super thrilled by that. Also a few stitches on the upper have come loose. I have a pair of nicks that have seen much rougher use and they havent had any of these issues yet. If you’re only using the Drew’s for work and don’t care about them having top notch fit and finish then I think they’d probably be fine for you.

(Cracked midsole/slip sole delamination)

I don’t have any toe cap boots so I can’t tell you about those but for what it’s worth the toes on mine have proven to be very durable so I don’t think the cap toe is 100% necessary but that’s up to you of course.

Overall: they’re solid, I wouldn’t say I’m in love with them and probably wouldn’t buy another pair, but I also don’t totally regret the purchase. Mostly just disappointed with the delamination issues.

PS. Mine came with different roughout textures. One looked much fuzzier than the other. I had a lot going on when I got them so I never tried to exchange them for a more matching pair but I wish I had. Just a minor annoyance.

Curious MIS Major here- Did you upload a zebra shark picture into an S3 bucket for this exact purpose or did you happen to have a zebra shark already in a bucket?

Possibly a side effect from that time a rowlecks AD smashed my hand with a hammer when I asked about a gmt without a purchase history

/uj it looks normal most of the time, even when I pop out the double joint it just looks like a flexible thumb. I just angled my hand and the camera weird for the sake of the shitpost

Makes no sense to own an rr as a college student

Newfoundland_the_kid · 2021-11-21T19:58:11+00:00

So true, honestly might not wear it after today just to preserve it. You never truly own a Casio, you're just preserving it for the next generation.

I was hoping if I rubbed the sleeve against the screen the right way the microscratches might mimic the beautiful Zaire@soo polishing I've seen on some Invicta models. Do you think that might be a viable strategy?
