I still can’t post pic but during my absence I got some incomings
Adidas x Pharrell Solarhu triple black
Neon green ultraboost 1.0 retro
Y-3 Yuuto all black (it’s a retro of the early colab piece between the two brands,prior to the birth of Y-3)
Adidas Predator 19+ oddity grey
Salewa mountain trainer (after my Italian trip last year,Salewa has become my preferred brand for hiking shoes...)
This prolonged stay at home period also lead me to discover my old football boots stash...too bad the sole part on all of them are already cracking considering I played in the 1997-2003ish time period

Time will tell how this Oxblood leather will age, but I doubt it will look bad.
Also picked up these for my wife (we had to travel to another Red Wing store because the store where I bought mine didn't carry women's shoes)

Get em dirty! They can certainly handle it. I have a pair of Blacksmiths. When they get dirty and scuffed, I hose em down, let em dry, then hit em with the horse hair and they look almost new.

I'm wearing then around the house breaking them in, so staying clean for now. Eventually I'll take them and use them for their intended purpose.

Ha ha, a little rough, but getting better day by day. And then I go put on my Wolverine 1000 miles and they feel like they were sculpted for my feet. I hope the Redwings will be similar eventually.

My Geox boots are too thin for this cold snap so decided to buy something cheap for when it's cold but dry.
Didn't have a clue what to get but spotted these.
They certainly won't last longer than a year or two, maybe, but they'll do the job for the amount of wear they'll get.
