R.M. Williams Comfort Craftsman Boot

R.M. Williams / Vintage Brown

Had some salt stains recently, and used Bick 1 & 4 to clean and condition. The Crazy Horse responded really well, and kind of made me want to do it all again - but I’ll be patient and let it roll. Getting some raw denim bleed the last couple days and looking forward to seeing how that develops over the next month or so. All in all, loving these boots. They’re incredbly comfortable.

Have the CC in Black Yearling, and while it has broken in is pretty snug. I ordered these a half-size bigger and at least for the first slip-in, they feel pretty good.

More about this item

I’ve never had crazy horse leather anything, so let’s see what happens.

Why did you choose this item?

Availability: Stock Model

The main reason is that I wanted a pair of Chelseas that I could wear like a sneaker, and I figured since it aligned with the Thunderdome timeframe, why not? I like the comfort and weight of the RM Williams (I have a pair in black yearling), and while the leather on these is pretty uninteresting, I thought it would be cool to document a “basic boot” and see it progress over time.

How did you determine your size?

H Last: 9.5HUS Men's Brannock: 10.5E HTB/10 HTT

Chatted with RMW support, who gave me a pair of 9H (black yearling) that has broken in, but fit pretty snug. So I got these in a 9.5 (10.5 US). I’m just a touch over a 10 H2T on Brannock, and an E width. These fit much more comfortably than the 9H.
