Grant Stone Brass Boots (Honey Glazed Cordovan)

Despite picking this pair months in advance (I told myself I'd buy a pair of Honey Glazed Brass boots when GS opened the preorders), I honestly thought the design was strange at first, but as it broke in and started creasing, I fell in love with these boots. The cliche is a pair of boots only looks better with wear, I'd go as far as to say this particular makeup only looks decent with some wear (and then it gets better with wear) I'm honestly glad I entered these into the thunderdome because if I didn't, I'd probably baby these boots (and I honestly didn't really wear them as hard as I would've liked because I stayed indoors a lot when the weather sucked)

More about this item

Added a guarded goods kiltie because it was loose around the ankles. Mostly wear with flat cotton laces, but I do also have leather laces on them from time to time
Q&A

Why did you choose this item?

Availability: Limited Edition

I wanted a pair of Brass boots because they had the reputation of being comfortable and a pair of shell boots, so I decided to wait until the Grant Stone cordovan preorder opened to order a pair of Cordovan Brass boots. I joke these are my version of Indy boots because I also teach college classes as a teaching assistant

How did you determine your size?

Floyd Last: 8.5D
Compared to Other Lasts

Same size as my diesel boots (8.5D). My main complaint with the Leo last is that my toes sometimes feel too tight, but I heard the Floyd last had a more generous toebox so I also ordered an 8.5 in the Floyd last
