I just got back a nice wad of cash from my tax return…already some of it is put away to buy my gf's son an IHS-08 for his birthday (I'd get him a pair of jeans, but his mom insists on cleaning his jeans after every wear and that would drive me nuts)...and wanted to get something for myself
I was going to get a pair of the Alden Indy's in Chromexel, but I really prefer the color on these after I put on a secondary coat of black shoe cream on them...the style is similar enough to the Indy's that I won't convince myself anytime soon that I need a pair of Indy's
I love the GT's...Chromexel leather and they break in sooooo nice...and I only paid $210 for them shipped
These will be stomping through the rainforests of Puerto Rico in two weeks!
Thanks for the compliments, guys
How my 9011's look after a few months and a couple coats of black shoe cream
In direct sunlight, without the black coat, they look a lot like clown shoes because they're such a bright red. This works better for me, and it has been my all time favorite color long before I got the boots or the idea to "overdye" them

maybe the tw-hr II…but the red tab might proof me wrong...
edit - referring to the question about Giles jacket...

Yeah, I love it. I really want to beat the crap out of a TWHRII (http://www.ironheart.co.uk/html/TWHR%20II.html), but just love the FBJ-101, so don't give the TWHRII enough attention.
I'll get around to it eventually…G

that is an awesome looking jacket! FBJ? what does that stand for…
and i see in the patch that it has the motorcycles pulling the jeans apart so that jacket def has some years on it. Very very nice job on that. I doubt that model is still available
-
no, its cool giles
i understood that that jacket was no longer available the moment i saw the leather patch with the to motorcycles pulling at the jeans. Man, great design on the patch back in the day. Also, iron hearts arcs were some of my favorite back before the lawsuit.. i still like them now, but the ones before were soooooo slick! But what did FBJ stand for giles? -
^ Thank you Giles, that is freaking awesome! i learned something new to file into my modest denim knowledge. thanks very much!

Thanks, Stewart. Those look great! Love it. Is it rubber or leather soles? I can't tell from the side which is good. I like rubber soles that have the same elegant profile as leather.
Also, the red t-shirt with the red lining of the coat is just the kind of detailed attention I like. There is perhaps one in a hundred men (if that) who pays attention to that kind of detail. It's true refinement without being ostentatious.
