I went with "dark mode" for the shoes today.
Including my light mode boots for comparison.

More on the "Kitten Testicle Gray Boots", which I bought a year ago.
I went with "Der Schwarze Schuh" this time.
@ruari They look very nice, but aren't they resoleable? What's the point with a leather shoe if you can't switch out the soles?
@vegard_berget These ones are not, no. Though in this case the damage I did to the kitten boots was to the leather itself, see:

So a re-sole would not have fixed the issue.
FWIW I also own https://atheist.shoes/products/a-serious-boot which are resoleable.
@vegard_berget This is my fourth pair of shoes from this company.
@ruari what kind of shoe is that?
@reynir Both the shoes and boots are by "Atheist". They are the same design but I got it as a shoe this time
@ruari they look nice!
@reynir Thanks. The last ones were so comfortable right from the get go but honestly I was a bit dissapointed with their longevity. The leather is so soft and I tend to unicycle with my feet right into the cranks. This causes them to wear on the side and get damaged.
I since adjusted my foot placing but in addition this is much stiffer leather. They should be harder wearing.These means they are not as comfortable as the boots right off the bat but I think they will get there.
@reynir These ones are "Der Schwarze Schuh".
