I couldn’t be happier with these boots - they’re everything I envisioned + more. They feel amazing.
Al's Attire Hand Made Type 1 Service Boot in Horween Brown Chromexcel HorsehideBy LeeRoss • November 30, 2024"The Chromexcel leather has been great so far. I love its rich texture and water-resistant properties, making it both durable and comfortable for daily wear. I can already see the way it develops a unique patina over time, which is going to add so much character. The break in process with the horse Butt has been surprisingly great...."Read the full review
Brian is unbeatable for timeless boots with a notable vintage American rebel bravado.
Role Club Engineer Boots in Horween Black Chromexcel HorsehideBy PatinaTechnodrome • April 6, 2024"This leather is nearly indestructible. Almost nothing scratches it. Most of my boots are horsebutt , and for a while I was distinctly disappointed in the cxl horse hide that Brian loves so much. But the last month as the brown core triumphantly broke through his overdye, I could see its glorious pull up breaking through like the sun shining through black storm clouds as the vamps finally started to crease and roll. This leather was so tough that by month five I was worried no wear would be apparent enough, that six months just wasn’t enough to wear down black chromexcel horse hide. But once the seal was broken the patina came flowing through in droves. I took the boots in some streams a few times and that really seemed to soften the black in a lot of areas, but the CXL just honestly looked better and better. The patina has become wild with these boots and I think they might be the most beautifully patinad black boots I’ve ever seen.
The cxl hh is surprisingly light and pliable and has become extremely soft and comfortable with wear. It’s also very breathable and doesn’t get too hot.
I really love the how the loose shafts of engineers create different folds that rub against your pants and take off dye with wear over time. This leather fits my foot like a sock now.
Care routine consisted of a bick 4 brush down once a month and that’s it. This leather is ridiculously low maintenance and way easier to care for than my usual go to boot leather, horsebutt...."Read the full review
How to headline? I wore these for commercial construction 5-6 days a week.
Wesco Mister Lou in Horween Black Chromexcel HorsehideBy twigglekitty73 • April 2, 2024"It folddd nicely over time. I like the lack of wrinkles. However, there was a care card in the box with these boots. It told me not to get my boots wet. WHAT?!? I bought boots that can't get wet?? Get out of here!!! Well, it turns out that it was good advice. This leather got ugly and gummy in some spots. I'm going to call it character. I did see much need for conditioning over the months. I brushed daily though...."Read the full review
Just love my hand-made Service Boot in Horsebutt, and watching the character develop every day.
Al's Attire Hand Made Type 1 Service Boot in Horween Brown Chromexcel HorsehideBy LeeRoss • April 1, 2025"The Horween Chromexcel horsebutt has been beautiful. From day one, it broke in comfortably without sacrificing structure. The surface has developed rich highs and lows with every step, bringing out a deep character unique to my wear. Scuffs buff out easily with a brush and some elbow grease, while the leather continues to respond with a natural sheen. It’s easily one of the most rewarding leathers to live in day after day...."Read the full review

Wesco Mister Lou in Horween Black Chromexcel HorsehideBy chromepak.jack • April 5, 2024"One boot came pretty wrinkled from the get, the other broke in marvellously. I call them my Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Horsehide boots.
Love the teacore, but much of the progress I saw was backtracked once I conditioned them...."Read the full review
