Izzy welcome to the board and have fun.
Forgive me for being thick but what is this bootblack thing ? do you clean boots in your spare time?
well, in the Leather Community a bootblack takes care of boots and other leather care duties. we take it to a level of craftsmanship and the act of bootblacking for someone is oftena gesture of love, devotion, and/or respect. we bootblacks are quite a community within the leather community and we ALWAYS have loads of fun when we get together.
check out my site... LOTS of pics and boot/leather info.
Thanks for sharing that story here, it makes a solid point.
Hope you'll stick around the board. Love your website.
'tis a pirates life for me too...Arrrrrr
If I ever get up to Wisconsin I'll bring my knee high replica cavalry boots.
