Best reviews of April 2024
To boldly Indigo where none have gone before
Y'2 Leather Work Boot in Indigo HorsehideBy ChuckTales • April 2, 2024"My dome experience started with a month away stomping around Taiwan and Japan. Soaked in seasonal rain up and down mountains, trekked through terminal and transport.
On return, they did what all of my boots do – everything. The majority of the wear was done on hospital floors and dog parks. Buut they also saw dance performances, bodyweight training and everything that took me more than a block from the house...."Read the full review
Let the Patina and Arch Support Continue
White's MP-Sherman Plain Toe in New Rosewood Waxed Elk UnicornBy SierraLizard • April 2, 2024"Week days consisted of office work and nighttime activities. Some weeks involved travel and field tests. Weekends are very diverse from hiking to house repairs to concerts and long walks. SoCal also received significant amount of rain this year, several times the boots were completely saturated. All of this led to a relatively even darkening of the uppers...."Read the full review

Beautiful Boneakers can handle the toughest jobs with ease and comfort.
Zerrows Boneakers in Maryam Natural HorsebuttBy kenyhaves • April 2, 2024"I have worn these for work and casual occasions. Basically I wore them nearly everyday for the past six months. I’ve traveled to Europe on these boots. Worked a handful of major art fairs and custom installation projects with these beauties. I’ve traveled the USA as well in them. Its been a pleasure to wear and break them in. It did take a little time and effort. I have a wide forefoot which takes a little time for the leather to conform. The soles have stood up fairly well considering how much walking I have done in them. Probably not quite ready for a resole. I did notice the speed hooks are pulling out so I’ll need a cobbler to repair the hooks...."Read the full review
