Brown waxed flesh is great leather, but not to show patina in a 6 month competition reflecting wear. Also, I wouldn't recommend this boot with a side zipper. Not practical or useful. I love these boots but need to unlace and lace up regardless of the side zipper.
The competition is challenging to get as much normal wear out of your shoes and reflect the amazing leather patina they take on. I think everyone sharing their journey was the best part. Great people, great footwear, great competition for anyone to participate in ... I will again!

Military history, ease, and look of a side zipper, the multipurpose of the boots. I enjoy the 8 inch style and leather.

Very long wait. 7 or 8 months I think. But not as long as Wesco. Lol. Online order was simple and easy.
