My boyfriend has these same shoes. He absolutely loves them (and gets complimented on them all the time!). You’re going to have a long and fruitful relationship with them.
How you finding the Yuketens? I picked up a pair of the Sports Chukkas about the same time as you and to be honest was a little disappointed by the overall quality – sole doesn’t seemed to be glued too well.
BTW, like the chair their sat on in the pic.
I would sum up the quality as “pretty good.” Obviously they’re nice and handmade but they really don’t hold a flame to my Quoddy’s! If i could turn back time (or make a return) I would have opted to get another pair of Quoddy’s without question.
The chair was a former lab chair from a university in Maryland, part of a pair.
Yep, I’d agree, Quoddy’s do seem just that bit more substantial. Although for the money (and I could be pissin’ in the wind here) I personally don’t think you can beat Red Wings.
Anyways, that’s a lot of shoe talk.
Thanks for the reply and good to hear back from you. atb
