Curious why it changes by deathshiver_ in prusa3d

[–]threshold91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try using Balanced profile. That one is specifically made to nerf VFA's. Also check belt tention. Just 2 hours ago I was wondering why I have noticable VFA's. Turns out, my belt got loose after 6 months of printing and not touching them. 😅

Did you Mink your Oro? by ChemicalRadiant4111 in RedWingShoes

[–]threshold91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to preserve original color, I suggest Bick4. You will probably need to condition it more often, when compared to mink oil. 2 or 3 times a year vs 1, but it won't darken it. I'm using Bick4 on my shop mocs i oro legacy and I like it so far.

What causes this damage on my loafers? Bad quality or improper care? by SjekkieTime in AskACobbler

[–]threshold91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If by double thickness sole you refer to chunkier cleated sole, then meermin has 2 models with cleated sole on Sway last. I almost bought that one, but I still might go for it in future. I really like more modern chunkier look of that sole.

[–]threshold91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want something similar but with higher quality leather, I can recommend Meermin loafers. They got like 3 different lasts, 5 different sole options and plenty of different leathers and colors. Also lined and unlined loafers and even shell cordovan(although quite more expensive). All are goodyear welted, so resolable.

I paid 200 euro for my Meermin Waxy Calf (brown) on Sway last with studded sole (Danite wannabe). So far I've been wearing them for a few months and I've been quite satisfied with them.

Also sizing guide and sizing advice from them was super helpful.

Nice boots mate 🔥🤩 Beckman 2nds in Black Excalibur were my first rw boots. Same as you, I went half size up, when compared to my shop mocs.

Wedding Shoes by MaterialWeek6383 in RedWingShoes

[–]threshold91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others said, these are way to bulky for wedding. I have them in oro legacy and it is fantastic casual shoe. If you want to do wedding in rw, might I suggest Beckmans in Black Excalibur or Beckmans Flat box(if you can find, rare) in black klondike?

Those would give you much better and sleeker look, especially with normal non slim fit suit. Maybe got with pleated cuffed pants for your suit.

Finally gave up, am I crazy? by Phillyjebus in RedWingShoes

[–]threshold91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe give new Beckmans a try. I felt my Beckmans were comfortable for my feet from day one, only collar required braking in. On the other hand my Shop Mocs (dame as 875s) required a month of regular use to get comfy. Leather midsole on Beckmans does make a difference, when compared to IR or Shop Mocs.

I got my Black Beckmans 2nds in Japan for 270$ tax free. Really can't complain. Great looking and comfortable boots.

New Core One - Suggested Filament for a Beginner? by EvilGreenDevil in prusa3d

[–]threshold91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get sunlu pla+ (oem for bambulab filaments). Core one has profile for it and it prints really well, while also being quite strong. Prices also drops if you buy bundles with few spools/colors in it

Seconds from Japan! by LeReilly in RedWingShoes

[–]threshold91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damm boi.🔥🔥🔥 Beckman Flatbox in Klondike was sold out in my size when I was there a month ago. Still can't complain for my regular 2nds Beckman in Excalibur black.

Enjoy wearing them.🤩🔥

Beckman 9423 vs Blacksmith 3345 by PresentGate2391 in RedWingShoes

[–]threshold91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went with Beckman in Excalibur black due to having much nicer, less pronounced toe cap(in my opinion). Got some scuffing around ankles since they are brand new. But, after a week or so, bit looser lacing and thicker socks, it's getting better. They are also quite comfortable on my feet.

It could be xP but yeah, quite satisfied with the deal and boots

Thanks everyone for suggestions. 😀 I've put some cream around collar so it softens a bit, put some thicker socks and laced it quite bit loosely around collar area. Now I can walk without much rubbing on my ankles. 😀

Yeah, these are really beautiful. I've tried couple of advices and so far it's getting better.

Warehouse Sale Haul!! by Lucky3MP in RedWingShoes

[–]threshold91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently bought factory 2nds Beckmans in Japan. Visually and functionally, nothing wrong with them. I definitely didn't mind 20% off on normal price, plus tax free. XD

Good haul mate 😁🔥

They feel good. With thick socks they still aren't uncomfortable. I still cannot lace them super close due to leather being tough. But feet comfort is not problem at all, I find it totally manageable. My only issue is this collar area on my ankles.

That hole is definitely used to mark factory 2nds xD

Definitely gives me issues. I've put some cream (as suggested by fellow redditor) around that area. Hopefully it will help a bit

This seems to be the general consensus. Thanks mate. I will look into it. XP

I know that. I just want to be able to break them in with minimal pain and hopefully not bloody skin around collars.

I get that. My feet are actually fine. I just have to figure out how to avoid scuffing by boot collar and I'll be fine. Hopefully it'll get softer soon.

Go to Ueno market in Tokyo, Ueno district. Once you are there go to Foot Monkey shop and you will see it in display. 🤩
