They look like comforting old friends.

I see you put those good boots to good use.

That does look like a good supportive set. Nicely taken.

You made a real nice image of a simple subject. The lighting is very well done in this image. The boots look like they have been utilized to the max.

Love the last quote especially - and, of course, your shot. :)

Good shot of a pair of old faithfuls.

A little sloppy with the taping mud? Or Paint? I love the laces!!!

The qualities in this pic are the light and the very good DOF

A great looking pair. Too bad they've been degraded to lowly painting shoes!!

They look good for another 10,000 km yet. That Vibram is great stuff.

They've served you well, Mark, and look like they will continue to do so.

My first pair of ski boots years ago were made by Raichle.
