These were my favorite pair of engineer boots courtesy of NotOnlyEnginners. I fell in love with the style when I got into boot world and was happy they work for me and my lifestyle. They're an easy boot to dress up or down depending on the vibe. No issues wearing and walking in them all day or just sitting all day.
This leather has crazy texture, I haven't given them a single brush or cleaning. I probably will now. But the leather just takes everything you throw at it and it comes through looking better than before. Definitely recommend it for patina lovers.
I am surprised at how much space my toes get with this boot. It looks pointy and uncomfortable but it's an extended last so I get more than enough Splay. They stay on me feet even if I bust out a light jog.
Quan hit it out of the park, the boots were immaculate when I got my hands on them. They're very sleek and get me compliments all the time from non boot nerds.
In love with Dr Soles, I can't go back to non half soles tbh.
With all the walking and stomping I've done these still have a lot of life in them.
