Addict Boots

Addict Boots uses Goodyear welted construction across its product line, a method that allows boots to be resoled and provides long-term durability. The construction features single stitching at the sole edge and incorporates Japanese steel footbed shanks for arch support. Each boot includes an oak bark tanned heavy midsole and stacked low heel. The interior features full leather lining, and each pair comes with a cushioned leather insole plus an extra insole for fit adjustment.

The company produces boots using custom-made horsehide leather in various models. The horsehide is characterized as thick but pliable with an oily feel and subtle grain variation. Service boot models feature cowhide leather lining and Vibram #700 soles, while the full sole and heel configuration uses Vibram components. The oak bark tanning process used for midsoles and heels represents traditional leather treatment methods.

Addict Boots manufactures several boot styles, with the service boot being a primary model. The Model AB-06H-CL-LW represents the company's Horsehide Service Boots, measuring 6.5 inches in height. Available sizing runs from US sizes 7.5 through 11 in standard D width.

Service boots from Addict Boots feature a low instep and run long. The sizing recommendation suggests sizing down one full size from Brannock device measurement unless the customer has high insteps and wide feet. The sizing aligns with Alden Barrie last and Red Wing Iron Rangers, providing a reference point for customers familiar with those brands. Some models also correspond in sizing to John Lofgren and Rolling Dub Trio boots.
