So far in my leather footwear journey, I've never really tried any shoes. I have also heard about Onderhoud since the day I started in this hobby and messaged them fruitlessly, I actually wanted a boondocker boot from them in roughout. Following advice from SDP, I turned on story notifications from Onderhoud and was lucky to score this leather, upon their recommendation that roughout was not really the way to go, I went with a derby shoe, I had never imagined myself getting one, but the opportunity presented itself so I took it!

How did you determine your size?

Rizky put me in contaxt with very friendly and helpful customers who assisted me with sizing. I am very grateful for their help as I likely would have been undersized if it weren't for their shared experiences. The last was also modified to allow for additional toe room on the pinky toe side as I have an average width but a lot of toe splay.

What was the ordering process?
