Personal preference to the Patton. I’m wearing a reminder that the 1757 fits me quite well. And I’m still salty that the Landon’s didn’t fit me well.
Wearing these because @ProfilaBinding mentioned them the other day and that he liked that they were a lighter color than most other chili Higgins Mill boots. A few things:
1. Nobody should ever envy the look of any of my pairs of AEs, given how little I do to take care of them, outside of consistently inconsistent conditioning.
2. I'm not sure how much lighter these are than his in real life. I take pictures around 9:00 every morning in mostly full sun when I let the dog out before the bulk of my meetings start. Couple that with the fact that I'm taking roughly .7 seconds to prepare the shot with an iPhone, and I'm sure the pictures are definitely skewed as to how they actually appear.
3. Chili from AE has a huge variance. I have a pair of chili MacNeil shoes, that definitely skew way more to the brown spectrum than this pair that skews towards the red spectrum. Putting them side-by-side, they look like they might be in the same color family, but closer to cousins than brothers. Personally, I love the variance, but I can see if you were expecting a certain hue and got something different how that could be disappointing. Lean into that variance, fellow weasel! Your pair looks awesome.
Back to attacking the backlog of emails from the week I was out of the office.

My personal opinion is that that Landon last was very poorly designed.
