(but the price point is lower...so it's not like they're ripping anybody off.)

      that being said, the split heel design feature is really convenient. more people should be making shoes with it.
      Hi Copaceptic!
      I personally have not worn/inspected/touched/caressed and so forth Layer-0 boots, but how sure are you in terms of the quality, many others have said they are tops. I have read from satorialoft, Layer-0 from the get go have used Guidi calf leather and Horween cordovan, I guess they stopped for a while then?

        i don't know a ton about the sourcing of the hides, but i know that this recent season was sourced from horween.

        from what i've seen/touched at sartorialoft and layers, the leather is not silky, tactile, malleable like guidi, to draw one parallel. it's more stiff, thin, almost brittle. i think that that leather is part of the layer-0 aesthetic. it's not like alessio (that's his name, right?) couldn't get that leather if he wanted it. i think it's a conscious choice.

        that being said, i prefer thick, beefy, dare i say juicy (you guys know what i mean) leather for my boots. layer-0 doesn't fit that bill.

              sept, looking great as always--i've really enjoyed seeing your progression over the past couple of years and i've always thought it was interesting that my own personal taste and style shifted at a similar rate toward a similar aesthetic~

              aussy, love the contrasting textures and tones of black in this shot, would really love to see how some of your recent fits look in some standing shots!

              pseudonym, everything fits you so perfectly it's hard not to be jealous myself :o

              killah, i'm very tempted to just box up and send you an old slr with a roll of film--first pic is still great tho, and the details must look lovely in real life~

              and very nice cowsareforeating, looks so comfy and unfussy, also like the palette you've chosen here

                          ^Agreed. At least he used the acronym. The actual name around here is akin to a curse word as far as I'm concerned. ;)

                            Cows, those canvas Layer-0 boots are fantastic, and the slightly dropped crotch on the Ind Sents trousers gives a great silhouette.

                              Hasty shot in a very smeggy mirror, dashing to work (running late as usual).

                                Very British feel to that shot Docus.. The details are a little lost in the shot but the silhouette is nice all the same. Very clean look.
