"It wasn't the reward that mattered or the recognition you might harvest. It was your depth of commitment, your quality of service, the product of your devotion -- these were the things that counted in a life. When you gave purely, the honor came in the giving, and that was honor enough."

Yeah, I figure they'll probably take some work. But the length probably includes the pointy-part at the front of the toe, and of course I may be wearing it over fairly big boots. So we'll see.


That's what I'm assuming, and there's a bit of "space" between the sabatons and shoes that won't sit 100% flush, so it might be close to decent in size. Depending how much extra space of opening on the top there is (if any) it might be pretty easy to trim down if necessary, since it's flat there and easy to cut.

Forgot to mention, these got here and they're huge. They'll definitely need some resizing downward. It'll be one of those projects that I'll "get around to eventually", I'm sure. :)

Those are the best kind of projects. :) My GDFB sabatons were similar. I wonder which pair is more ridiculously oversized. Sir Nathan saw the GDFBs last weekend.
