My lucky pair. Every time these hit the pavement, the day just goes right. Never misses.

I have a couple of brown pairs of boots in rotation from other brands and was looking for a pair of black boots. I have the 986 loafers and have really come to love shell and thought if I was going to save up for a pair of black boots, getting a nice pair of shell boots would be really cool. I looked at a few models that have the commando sole and the black jumpers really stood out to me.

Anyone have these boots (or any similar models on this last) and have thoughts on them?
