Buzz Rickson M-43 Service Shoes





The suede is immediately comfortable - compared to all leather boots which can take months to break-in. I really like the paraffin wax treatment of the suede - it gives the boots a nicely burnished appearance.
They're also cheaper than the Toys McCoys version (a remake of Steve McQueen's Great Escape shoes).
Here's a link to the Buzz Ricksons product page, and the boots on sale at Hinoya.

i just recently saw this on your site and had the urge to splurge. the shoes shown are not available in los angeles, and i am not too much of a fan of suede as much as leather, since i am at the wash house so often.

it was the classic boot that i was more in love with, so i added a 3rd pair to my existing already of REDWINGS.MODEL#9014. i am defntely loving them, but a bitch to break in.

thanks for your post: they totally inspire me. i only wish i could get a collection of jeans as you have acquired in the years. since i am in the industry, i am seeking selvedge denim to custom make my own pairs.

take it easy!!!
