new leather boots are like that one. u need to season it. and the only way to season it is by wearing it.

I say the viva le leather boots! Leather ones are way tougher than the goretex. Smhow old things dun comprimise on quality so much. Yes, leather have to season, maybe you can get you father's or uncle's boots if they still have. It feels like heaven inside, like the air max 360.

Aiyah, juz chiong sua with it loh. Every when you go jog, wear it. Haha. Tts the only way I can think of. Thats how my became like air max 360, haha. If you buay tahan, then wear more green socks loh.
Or else you could subject it to intense bending and conformation when you ying ying squeeze it into yor boots bag, or shoe bag.
Actually, leather boots are just like jeans, the longer you wear they better they fear. But of course, you must start by wearing them. -
i can't stand the feeling of goretex boots after being so used to lao jiao boots. goretex boots feels clumsy. leather boots especially the lao jiao boots if seasoned can be very comfortable. it hugs the skin and won't hinder movement.

Leather boots are like that, you have to wear them often to let it "soak in" all the sweat and moisture from your feet. Oh, and kiwi it often.
Once you've seasoned it, it'll be more comfortable than sports shoes. But if you dun wear it for long, the leather hardens and the "biting" will come back. -
leather is still the best...the only flaw is new ones need to wear daily in order for it to be seasoned...but once seasoned, it's ur best friend when u go chong-sua! so comfy and it hugs to ur leg (feels like second skin)...trust me, LEATHER IS STILL THE BEST!!! And if you are a rider, the leather boots are rugged enough for you to use it when u go circuit...no need to buy those fancy racing boots!
