First version of this that isn’t black

Why I own this

Been wearing Iron Heart since 2010, and the denimhead culture flows through my veins. Walked the path from RW etc until I heard about this incredible small Norwegian shoe company, that makes the most beautiful boots.

This is my fourth Dundas pair, so they said they’d make a custom GS42 with new leather for me for this competition! Honoured!!

I’ve had these on every day, waking through snow, ice, rain, sunshine.. and even wore them to yoga class and dance rehearsals (tango and musical theatre). They are great for keeping the rhythm when I play my blues guitars, and makes me feel a little taller and humble.

Color Change

Wonderful and light, the leather is changing a little, and especially the leather sole is getting visual wear. But it seems the boot is so well constructed it changes its shape very little. I clean and wax them every day. Colour is changing a little, to a little darker.
