My new-to-me Perfekt boots. Changed laces after I saw the pretty examples here: magazin-zuerich.ch/vollleder-w (The red-laced ones are Super Perfekt boots, but 🤷)

Used to frequent /r/goodyearwelt, but today is... Well. Did learn a thing or two about and . A Goodyear welt is recognizable by the stitching around the sole, and makes it possible to replace them. Lengthening the life of your boots!

@goodyearwelt

The character limit sure is a challenge sometimes, but having a succinct post is also a good thing.

I wish the community here was as lively as on Reddit, but the way to make things happen here is to be the change you want to see in the world, so here we go! I have plenty more goodyear welted shoes and boots, so I'll coin to show them off and hopefully add some activity here and on the Lemmy community goodyearwelt@lemmy.world.

@bammerlaan @goodyearwelt ah, this type of leather hiking boots are the best. They adapt to your feet so well, which makes it even nicer to be able to keep them when the soles are worn off. Just don't get them wet on a multi-day-tour, they take ages to dry...

The red shoelaces look really nice on yours!
