Fit great. First few weeks the collar of the shoe pushed my ankle but after the shoes broke in there’s no pressure on that anymore.

Leather

Color Change
Break-In

Started shiny from TPR finish. The colour was kinda dull after the TPR worn off. The leather was quite stiff and as painful to break-in like any other horsebutts I have tried.

Satisfied with the Fit

The fit and size were spot on. Im brannock 10E. The shoe are 9.5E. Fit nicely with medium weight socks. First few wear the life shoe’s collar was push my ankle and it’s unpleasant. But after the break-in period. The shoe got comfortable as it get. FYI the shoes are very heavy. They are as heavy as my PNW boots.

Finishing

The design/ finishing/ stitching were flawless. Super impressed by the craftsmanship. If I have to be nitpicking. The clicking was not S tier and the shoe box was not the best

Hype around Dr. Sole was real. They’re great. Nothing much to say.
