IT'S GIVEAWAY TIME!!

It's been a long time since the success of my last giveaway, a custom studded and jeweled belt , so it's about time for another treat. 

**Update: I've received a few e-mails from folks not being able to leave a comment. I think the problem has been resolved. If this problem continues please send me an email at villanuevado@gmail.com and you will be added to the giveaway.

Here was my last giveaway

Fans of this style of boot can agree that buckles play an integral part of the overall look.  That being said, some factory buckles just don't seem to cut the mustard.  World-renouned boot repair man, Takeshi Okuyama, obviously feels this way as he has created some of the coolest buckles out there to jazz up them boots.  For this giveaway, I am offering a brand new set of Takeshi's shiny brass roller buckles designed to breath new life into your WESCO's, Chippewa's, Viberg's or any other pair of Engineer Boots you have.


What a great Christmas gift this would make for that Vintage Engineer Boot collector in your life!

Here's How to Enter:

The contest is open to *all fans* of Vintage Engineer Boots! So, if you're a fan of Engineer Boots and want to be entered in the custom Takeshi Engineer Boots buckles giveaway:

Leave me a comment below and I will enter you in the drawing.

If you leave a comment and also link me in your blog, I will add your name twice! Make sure you tell me you are linking me in your blog when you leave your comment so I don't miss you!

I will be drawing the winner on December 2, 2011.

*All Fans means: whether you have a blog or not, are follower #5 or #109, never comment but like to lurk, and you can live anywhere in the world.


Here's the same style of buckle Okuyama used on boots he's reapaired.

    I'm in, thank you. It was this blog that inspired me to order a custom pair of Wesco Engineers. They arrived awhile ago and I love them!

    Thanks again, All. You're all in! Lets keep 'em entries coming.

    Yeah, I gave a set away a while back to someone and never received so much as a reply saying thanks or anything. Quite disappointing, to be honest.

    Forgot to add that I'd love to see a photo of the winners boots (or the boots
    these end up on) when done.

    Cheers!

    Count me in! Awesome buckles. Would look great on my Red Wing 2268. Your blog is a fantastic inspiration. Keep up the good work. Best regards Speedster.

    This is exciting! Thanks for all the motivating words, ALL!!

    I can't wait for the 22nd to arrive so I can announce the winner. Still plenty of time for folks to get their names on the list.

    I don't think these'll fit 2268's as their instep strap is super wide. Don't let that detract, though. These are great to have for that special pair of Vintage Engineer Boots you run accross.

    Cheers!!

    Thanks folks!! I'm really excited about this giveaway. To the layman on the subject of these style of boots, it may appear like a measly giveaway, but we all know how difficult it is to come accross these.

    There's plenty of time left.

    Good luck ALL!
