Quality adventure boots
BLKBRD Luchador Service Boot in Horween Natural ChromexcelBy fieldlaf • April 3, 2024"My boots have hiked in various terrain from the rolling hills of Kentucky to the desert and mountains of New Mexico. They’ve been my everyday pair working from home and my weekend pair doing chores around the yard. Blkbrd’s site says these are made to be worn rough, and I believe it. I wanted a pair of boots that could transition from the woods to casual dining with ease, and these have more than accomplished that goal...."Read the full review

Nicks Urban Logger in Horween Natural ChromexcelBy yorkpahomes • April 5, 2024"In 6 months these boots were worn all but 3 days.

From the First to the Last
Grant Stone Cap Toe Boot in Horween Crimson ChromexcelBy _cryptid_jack • April 1, 2024"I started my first two months wearing them every day straight with only Sundays being the day they weren’t worn, as it was a day off work where I didn’t have any plans to leave the house. My job is retail, suit shop, carpet and concrete, lots of stretching and bending and moving carts and racks of clothes around. I’d say it’s a fairly active environment, I don’t sit often, in fact often I’m speed walking all day haha! I’ve also worn them on dates with my wife! I’d say the average wardrobe they’re paired with would be smart chinos, shirt and tie, and tweed blazer, but occasionally shined and conditioned to be worn with a navy suit. I often don’t think about trying to keep my shoes clean or clear from debris so scuffs and scrapes happen regularly. After that first two month period the rubber delaminated at the toes which caught me off guard but otherwise everything about the shoes has held up tremendously. Although, whether it’s my lifestyle or perhaps a touch of rough metal in an eyelet, I’ve gone through shoelaces like mad and am on my 4th pair. I wore them in blizzard white out conditions, heavy rain, and long hours in the sunlight, as well as inside at my job under the fluorescent bulbs. All in all these are now the boots my work colleagues associate with me, and I know they’re gonna be a part of my life for a very long time!..."Read the full review
Comfort And Style
Viberg Service Boot in Horween Black ChromexcelBy _cryptid_jack • April 1, 2025"All day for most days of the week. Mostly at work, selling shoes! Carpet over concrete and sometimes tile, lots of bending and kneeling and running. Climbing ladders, shuffling around cardboard boxes. Then, after work a light walk in the grass or, during the winter, snow...."Read the full review

Wesco Mister Lou in Horween Brown ChromexcelBy Leetsalot • April 5, 2024"The majority of wear came in the form of work(retail). Wore them every shift for typically 9+ hours. They also accompanied me on plenty of dog walks, date nights, sporting events and even the symphony. Wore them in the small amount of snow my area received and some wet/muddy yard work...."Read the full review

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. I wore these boots everyday in the shop and in cemeteries working with granite. Then I would give them a good brushing to wear them to town and conferences. I love how I was able to dress them up and down...."Read the full review
