    I would want to see the dipped ones in person, but from images I think they looks great. I can imagine that wearing them would make it looks like you are melting into the ground.

      sounds like the same deal as with the boots, L'eclaireur had a pair that was super soft (kangaroo?) compared to the usual.

        So you think that the same versions could differ in the different shops?

            well the boots at least were made in different types of leather, maybe the dipped derby might be the softer type as well

                  Spoke to Satoru at A about the derbys and he said leather is superthick.
                  I'm seriously thinking about getting a pair.
                  I got a pair of boots from this season and they are exactly as stiff as my previous pair from SS 08.
                  They have a curious double layer leather. A thin lining on the inside of the boot.
                  But the outer layer is real thick. How is the noseam pair you got at Darklands? Soft?

                        hmmm, ok, seems then that their derbys are thicker than ours since ours is really soft, never seen such a leather on CCP shoes.
                        In regards to the noseam high boots, i dont remember exactly, they were pretty much sold out after a couple of days and i tryed them on only once for the shoot. I can tell you more when the next shipment comes in. Campbell ordered a whole bunch of them for the store.

                          funny, mine was most likely misspelled then
                          it says "GRAIL"
                          One wonders where it will end, when everything has become gay.

                            According to the pics on darklands website, it looks like that these dipped derbies are not made of cordovan, but of a thinner and softer skin, probably kangaroo. That would explain the contrast with the usual thick cordovan derbies (I tried both dipped and non-dipped cordovan derbies in Paris, they were equally thick and harmful).

                              addict i tried on the boots and the derbies this season both, were very soft as in shockingly soft for carol this is not the wedge derby but the regular one in white.
                              but also tried another no seam spiral boot from the library which is the same style as the grey but thicker

                              he did use two different leathers in his white footwear this season
                              i think it must depend on what the stores bought

                              library's is thicker still soft
                              but l'eclaireur's thinner still soft personally i loved this for the boot it made the fit around the ankle much nicer than when stiff
                              .

                                hmmmm, thanks for the rundown.

                                Snaf, P and the others what are your thoughts about the dipped derbys? Yay or nay?
