Oh gosh... what have I just uncovered...



Let's get these in the sun.



Very dusty, these belong in a museum.



Yep, these are Coyle's alright.



And here's the sole. I barely wore these, back in the day.



Soaked one in some Pecard. That looks alright.



And now both of them.





Thanks Pecard (which I also found the back of a cupboard, still good after 20 years)!

Boy were they thirsty (a few hours later).

Cool, they look nice and shiny after soaking up all the conditioner. Pecard's can really revive leather goods.

Cheers,

Yeah, although I don't need them to look pristine... in fact, I will likely beat the daylights out of them now... it's a lovely revival job!

They are made for being abused on adventures! But the conditioning will help them stand up to loads of of adventuring.

One thing I had forgotten about them over the past decade is how heavy they are.

They weigh a ton. Like, a stupid, stupid amount for simple, ankle boots.

I guess they can really put a "KICK" in kicking nazis' behinds!

But they do make walking long distances tiring.

What's old is new again! Congrats on the find!
