A quick look around the San Diego Rad Power Bike location. They picked a great spot right on the water. I took my RadCity in for the 100 mile tune up so I thought I would get a quick video of the shop. Wife and I took a RadRunner and a RadRunner Plus out for a test ride on the bike trail that runs around the bay, such a great view and amazing weather in San Diego. Enjoy this short tour.

Wife and I took a couple RadRunners our on a rest ride to pass the time, great views and amazing San Diego weather. I think she is sold on the Runner Plus which means I get to borrow it!!

    I got into a pair of Numzaans in early January when they did the early release. Absolutely love them. Wear them at least 3 days of the week. The veg tan leather holds up extremely well. They're definitely on the heavy side, but don't really notice it on your feet. The new green ones on pre-order are beautiful. And the bronco leather on the AR's...wow! Good to see someone else in SD wearing the Jim Greens.

    3 boots with the same build? You really like that style. My first pair of Jim Green boots were African Ranger Barefoot in Natural Veg Tan. I had never heard of Jim Green before this year but I got hooked. I got 2 pairs of Vellies in different leathers next, 1 in smooth tan leather and 1 in chestnut roughout, because they're half the price of the African Ranger boots and sizes were quickly being sold out. After that, I decided to get a custom pair of Shoellies on the barefoot last, which makes them wider than the stock Shoellies. I got them in buffalo leather with olive stitch down thread, just like your custom African Ranger pair. I wore my roughout vellies on a recent trip out of town and did a lot of walking in 90 degree heat sockless with shorts. They did great. My feet didn't hurt.

    LOVE your custom choices. I really think the Extra midsole makes this boot, And is the toecap different from your old pair?? The new boot toecap almost looks stuctured in comparison to the older pair?? I love your new custom boot, in fact, I like it so much i think i would like to order Exactly what you've order. May i Ask exactly how you ordered or defined the differences and customisations? These boot deserve more attention, and i think your video will have a massive impact on this well deserving company. Look forward to a update in a few months. Thank you.

    • @xplorsocal2222
      @xplorsocal2222 14 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks, I am really happy with the boot. The toe cap may look different because I had the custom model double lasted so it has three layers of leather at the toe while the off-the shelf boot only has two layers at the toe, plus the off-the shelf boot has been worn more so the toe is losing some of its stiffness as it breaks in. I ordered the boot on the standard JG last, in buffalo leather, it is double lasted, and I selected the leather midsole, and olive threading on the stitch down. Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoy your new boots as much as I like mine.

      Depends on your use case. I wax mine up, but then I deal with rain quite a bit. Any balm or conditioner works really; Jim Green recommends Smith's Leather Balm if I'm not mistaken. Just hitting them up with a horsehair brush on the reg does the most for shine I find. Will get better with age. I'm curious to see how the buffalo patinas over time as I haven't seen many pictures of them besides when new.
