Use & wear

Office Work

I have worn once, to the office on a Sunday wherein I produced one online lecture and watched 4 YouTube videos.

Leather

Gold MC Calf
Color Change

This is one of the most beautiful leathers in my closet. The depth of color and natural variation isn't adequately captured in my photos. I am extremely impressed

Fit

Satisfied with the Fit

Size 11 is probably too big. I should probably be a 10.5. these feel a little narrow but a little roomy in other areas. I felt the same thing with my stow boots when they were new. My stow boots are probably too big now that they're broken in

Craftsmanship

Tricker's Bernwood

The only issue with the finishing I can see is that the split welt isn't attached perfectly at the toe area. Other than that, the construction is great

Sole & heel

Traction

It rained today and I already slipped on a concrete floor

Final thoughts

Would Recommend
Good Value

Great looking boot. Great value for what I paid. But...the pair weighs over a pound more than my stow boots. They're the second heaviest boots in my collection. They're super stiff--more stiff than every pnw boot I've tried on/worn. These boots are going to be great once broken in. But with my collection, it's going to take a while to break them in. Plus, why do I need a 2kg heavy pair to sit at a desk and type?

Very good experience. The kudo is very soft, very comfortable leather that takes the weather well.
