K.M.P.T Shoemaker Service Boot in Black KangarooBy prospect_joe • March 12, 2025"I got these last night. The plan is to wear them fairly rarely to the office. Mostly as something more casual than a dress shoe, but black so I can get away with as formal if no one is paying attention...."Read the full review

Blue Collar Living with Hurricane Effects
Nicks MTO in Horween Tan Waxed FleshBy DocLineman • April 1, 2025"I started this dome on storm in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Florida restoring power to those devastated by both Hurricane Helene and Milton. I’m a huge hunter so I’ve walked through the woods in search of sheds, and locating best the hunting locations. Living on a 400 acre farm also comes with its own challenges and work. From bailing hay, loading wagons, working on equipment to land management. These boots face challenges on all levels yet have cleaned up beautiful enough to wear to church...."Read the full review

Dancing, traveling, hiking, gardening, everyday use, matching boots with my husband from same hide😁
Nicks Packer in Wickett & Craig Natural Double StuffedBy TangibleLily929Wife • April 6, 2025"My boots have been out country dancing on many dance floors!!! We have traveled to many states and walked the country lands in Alabama, the city streets in Philly, the beautiful campus at Yale in Connecticut, New York parks, New Jersey for some good food, on a horse ranch in South Carolina, across Georgia, backwoods of Oklahoma, snow mountains in Utah, and of course all over my home state Texas. My boots favorite adventure was traveling across the world to Bali where they experienced the warm humidity and occasional tropical rain! From the big adventure to the small adventure like gardening and going to the grocery store we have experienced a lot together but what makes my boots so special to me is they are made from the same hide of my husbands boots and we got matching pairs. Thank you for this unique opportunity and the memories my husband’s and I made through these boots and this contest...."Read the full review

To the rodeo but just the stands, fishing from the dock...."Read the full review
Teacore Horserump Challengers 3 month review
Thursday Black Label Challenger in Maryam Natural Horsebutt Overdyed BlackBy indi.raw.oninsb • January 3, 2025"Worn mostly for work at the brewery, on my feet 8-10hrs a day in wet/dry/dusty/hot/cold/humid conditions. Lots of stairs, walking, lifting, bending, kicking, spilled beer and chemical, grain dust, brew/filter powders. Frequent temperature changes going from a 120°F 100% humidity brewhouse to a 30°F bone dry hop cooler... The boots get their fair share of abuse.
Other fun stuff I've done in them: Ren Fest x2, various hikes through Texas wilderness, a handful of concerts and shows (this was killer on my feet the first show before the boots were fully broken in), and a bit of partying for the holidays! Soon they'll see their first travel as I'm taking them to Mexico in February...."Read the full review
