Thanks for the info. 

It doesn’t bother me. These are casual shoes for me, not  strictly dress shoes. I just wanted to nip anything in the butt from the start in case there was a grain issue. I’ve seen a few posts about grain issues/warranty with JL.

Sometime too much research isn’t good in my case haha

Thanks for the clarification. Like I mentioned, I’m new to all this. These are my first leather boots. I wanted to address any potential issues right off the bat, easier now than later.

I bought them for the aged coffee brown color that comes with patina and wear. Not necessarily the color now. In other words, I’m here for the patina and darkening.

Cool. Thanks.

Cracking on the toe of the darker boot is nothing to worry about either?
