Remember to forget me!
I've received confirmation that the suede Rowan boots by Hotter have been despatched. Should be here by the end of the week
I gave them another coat last night, and the colouring is nice and even now. Much better. I put some maroon laces on them today, and took a little walk in them, just to the local shop at the end of the street for some essentials. They certainly look a lot brighter in daylight, and need to be worn with confidence. Not a shoe for the retiring, self-conscious individual. However, I don't exactly fit into the shy, retiring category, so it won't discourage me
I do think I need to figure out a safe-ish way to attempt to dye the larger brogue holes though. Doesn't look right, having that tan/natural colour showing through them. Sorry, no new pics, as my phone has died.
Managed to get the first coat of aubergine dye on the disappointing Amen brogues today.

They'll need another coat, but I think it's an improvement.
