Pleasantly Surprised
Grant Stone Nora Boot in Horween Black ChromexcelBy lydialove • April 1, 2024"After about 3 weeks I had decided I should have joined the work dome and not the open.

Quan shoemaker boots
Quan Shoemaker Unknown Model in Maryam Black HorsebuttBy stepped_in_dookie_again • April 5, 2024"Break in was tough. Veg tanned Maryam horsebutt is dense leather that is defiant when you try to bend it. During the first month of wear, the boots creaked often from the sound of the upper leather moving around the tongue. They eventually softened up after 2 months to become comfortable but definitely caught me by surprise by the break in time..."Read the full review
