Another Year, Growth

I need - NEED - Project Pandion to continue to develop products like these. I love my staple brands and their respective lasts that I know fit me well, but in taking a risk in trying something new I’ve gained an appreciation for artisans trying ‘new’ things with time-tested crafts. I feel that my experience here has encouraged me to try new things within this hobby of ours. 10/10 would recommend these.

Fit perfectly, with a small bit of extra room. Can either fit perfectly bare-foot or with thick socks. Interesting, no?

More about this item

I took alot of risk with this pair in that the sizing was a full size up (10D brannock, went with 11 as recommended) and I’ve never worn a pair of high quality Chelsea boots before. Very minimal room for errors here lol. Thankfully, Clayton came in clutch with a great sizing recommendation and they fit phenomenally. I was concerned that the crepe sole, as comfortable as it is, wouldn’t be durable and a mid-dome resole would be in order but as it turns out, it lasted perfectly fine through some fairly intense use from me. I do look forward to trying a non-crepe sole option and hope Project Pandion will try other options as they grow and expand. But the sole was super comfy, and as part of a regular rotation it will likely last longer than 6 months. Phenomenal pair, phenomenal experience. Thank y’all again for another amazing Patina Thunderdome!
