I love the way natural or light coloured chromexcel ages and develops over time. This pair of crust chromexcel shows a lot of potential to develop a rich shine and deepened color. This is also my first pair of engineers. I never really saw myself wearing a pair, but this design was really eye catching. I’ve been holding on to them since buying earlier this year as it seemed like a nice opportunity to catalogue their evolution.
I checked similar pairs on Patina Project, read reviews on the goodyearwelt subreddit, and consulted with viberg last experts. Thankfully, my estimated size seems to have been bang on.
