Pretty good but considering these are normally $750+
Plenty of discussion around whether these are poorly quality than the boots made years back, but for this price is a really good buy for something made in Aussie, Goodyear welted.

So does that mean that even the regular Airpoints Store price is a good deal compared to retail? That must be a first!
Actually happens quite often, I got a webber BBQ cover that was about half the Mitre10 price a while back. But yes, usually their prices aren't great.
Anyone know how the sizing works.. I have a pair of 8.5s.. the sizing is a bit weird, no half sizes but has 8 and 8+…
Also, is there a price error on the 'full' price of these boots? the other boots on the airpoints store seem to be the normal 750-800 range..
Could be, or an end of line product? Seems to be full price here:

Seems to be an old season / slow-moving colours.
Just looked on my box and the + is the half size. 8+=8 1/2.
Awesome, thanks for this!!
I'm usually a size 11-11.5US in most shoes, but my RM Williams are a 10G. Fit's perfect.
I also have a pair of RM's in a 9.5G which fit me, but are on the tighter side. I've only worn this pair around 5 times so still needs breaking in.
G is their standard size, H is wide fit.
Makes sense as RM Willams use UK sizing right?
Buying my first pair ever - hope they fit. Website says exchanges can be made though for wrong sizes.
Went into a store yesterday to get fitted and they usually cost $799 which is an absolute ripoff, but at $352.28 ($338 for me since I had some Airpoints), that's lower than the original RRP of them 10 years ago which is a great deal.
Ordered 10:43 pm Wednesday night, DHL'd and arrived today Friday and basically fits like a glove on arrival. Incredible delivery speed.
DHL'ed from AUSTRALIA
DHL Express too, not the DHL NZPost service that Amazon uses.
@Kiwi: Right? Pretty much overnight shipping … amazing. I plan to darken the leather myself as I'm not the biggest fan of the colour. Can't ever beat the price though what a deal
@nzkiwi: This, we're interested in - can you tell us what you're gonna do exactly!?
'plan to darken the leather myself - nzkiwi'
@rolex: Playing it safe and will keep oiling it up over time so it will darken and it should also get that pull-up effect as well.
Just slather a layer over with an dab of oil on your hand and cover the whole boot and do that a few times. Then let it sit and soak in. It won't take too long, maybe 10-15 mins. Repeat if desired, but I'll just start wearing them and re-oil them from time to time as I go cos no rush and I hardly wear boots (why did I buy them? I have 5 pairs of nice boots I wear a couple of times per year at most lol)
Vegetable/coconut oil works fine in my experience but you'll fine a lot of conflicting information online. No need for anything fancy; just some sort of neutral oil that won't really go off and have that old, rancid oil smell
Also not a professional or anything. That's just what I do and it works and I don't need to buy an overpriced leather care product because this style suits my taste (pull-up, subtle darkening, and minimal shine/sheen)
This also looks like a good deal vs. usual price https://www.airpointsstore.co.nz/product/hawkesbury-holdall-…
