Nothing subtle about these. I like 'em a LOT!

Kind of an offshoot of that black & white thing I can't seem to shake. Plus I like electric blue tall tops.

Here's a question for you....
Many times while cruising eBay for older boots I see pairs of Tony Lama boots that have heel caps on which you can still read "Tony Lama". I thought this meant the boots were relatively unused but the rest of the boot looks more worn than they should be for original heels. Are "Tony Lama" branded heel caps available to cobblers for replacement on worn boots?

Although most of you seem to be attracted to more exotic boots, perhaps you might find these of interest. I found them on Ebay and got them for $30 delivered. The are white label Justins, althought the labels are almost worn away, and I contacted their Historical liason who told me they're most likely from the 1950's and the style does strike me as that era. They're fairly plain, it's the stitching pattern that attracted me. They were pretty stiff when I got them, I'm still treating them with Bicks 4 and they are softening up nicely. I treated the soles with Pecards and they came back. Still waiting on some leather touch up from Mohawk for the worn piping.
