I went half a size down from brannock. The last has quite a lot of volume in the instep area and is pretty long.

Ready To Wear

When I was looking for a boot for my first Thunderdome participation, I decided pretty fast to go with some kind of a service boot. I wanted something versatile that's makes it easy to be worn each day of the week. I work in an office environment so it had to be classic, but still rugged enough for small adventures on the weekend. Brown boots go well with pretty much everything and the potential to develop a nice patina is much higher than with black boots and since there were so many boots in natural leathers in the last Dome, I wanted to go a different route.

The ordering process was pretty straight forward. Since this one is a collaboration between Skoob and stuf|f it was pretty easy to get my hands on a pair. I'm living in Germany and it's a german shop, so shipping was fast and easy. I wasn't sure about the sizing, but they give always helpful tips and comparisons to other brands' sizing in the description.
