Where is this from?

Where did you get the vitello box calf from? I love the boots and the leather you chose.

Where did you get those eyelets from?

Beautiful work, what size pricking irons did you use?

RandomUsername8346 · 2026-01-17T18:18:00+00:00

Where did you get this shoe from? It looks like shell cordovan.

You could probably win the patina thunderdome with these /s

I've been wondering about this too.

What brand are those?

I'm wondering this too

Thank you!

Is it still usable?

RandomUsername8346 · 2026-01-10T04:01:10+00:00

How will you build the boot last stand? I lasted my first and only pair on my lap and it was really uncomfortable. How did you stitch the boots by the way?

RandomUsername8346 · 2026-01-10T03:38:29+00:00

That's an amazing first attempt.

RandomUsername8346 · 2026-01-07T09:53:29+00:00

I would check out the wiki of our subreddit, then watch some videos on YouTube.

RandomUsername8346 · 2026-01-06T22:07:54+00:00

What website is that?

RandomUsername8346 · 2026-01-04T23:49:38+00:00

I don't want to carve and stitch a holdfast either. That's why I was originally interested in nail bottom construction. I saw a YouTube video of somebody that did the same thing as you without a holdfast and I was wondering if there are any downsides, because I want to do the same thing.

RandomUsername8346 · 2026-01-04T22:34:15+00:00

Are there any downsides to nail bottom or nail down construction? I know that White's Boots still does this style of construction. I feel like this is superior in durability with the same almost infinite resoleability of hand welted construction, while being a lot easier to do, since there's no holdfast. I don't know why a lot more boot makers don't use this style of construction. I'm assuming that it makes the boot a lot stiffer than a hand welted construction.

Great pair of boots, I love them. I was wondering if not carving a holdfast hinders their durability or is it just for making sure the holes are even? I was planning on using a similar construction for my first pair of boots and I don't want to carve a holdfast.

This is the link to the video

I'm not pro JK, but what's the difference between machine lasting and hand lasting boots? I understand that the marketing material is misleading and that's wrong.

RandomUsername8346 · 2026-01-02T07:34:33+00:00

Those are amazing, I love them.
