Color Change

The black had started to show a warm amber glow behind it and the brown is starting to come through at flex points

I can’t not believe how much this rough out color evolved. From almost white to an impossibly warm and worn amber color. Unbelievable

Pengs craftsmanship and finishing is on par with the best in the world. These are also tanks, as have been the other 3 boots of his I’ve handled
