Aside from day-to-day wear, It's seen the most action on my motorcycle. I've worn it from morning cafe rides to multi-day cross-island tours.
Aside from the ever surprising color shift in different lighting, Maryam's leather has develop magnificent rolls, making it a unique, conversation piece amongst boot enthusiasts I meet. Fades get more pronounced everytime i have a long ride on my bike.
If you look closely, you can literally see the shape of my feet molded on the upper! It's a testament to its snug, well broken in fit we all aspire on our boots.
The concept was a very close collaboration with Willie himself. This is their first production Jodhpur boots, and Willie's hand skill is evident in how the boot looks ans feels. They have outdone themselves here.
It's a strategic choice by Willie to use a Vibram Explosion, which allowed more flex on the midsole, hence, more rolls can develop on the upper. It also made the silhouette sleeker, giving it versatility.
These are my first experience in Made-To-Order boots, and I love them! Willie's did a home run on these pair.
