I know what you are saying about the stiffness of some high quality leather footwear. For numerous pairs of mine I've had to wear them for several months for them to soften. What I find helps is also taking the shoe and bending it several times quite severely without my foot in it. It is pretty amazing how long and how much flexing the break in needs sometimes.
Apologies for the slight audio mistake at 5:38.
Definitely my next purchase from C & J
I hope you like them!

What is the boot version of this shoe ?
It was called the Eskdale II, but I'm not sure if they still offer it. It was a MTO option a while back.
Price this shoe......11 uk size
Well, they are $810 on the C&J website.
