Loved these, especially the Orange Predator leather

Going into my fourth Thunderdome, I had a pretty good idea of what I like and what I don’t, and this pair just felt right. They’ve kind of settled into themselves over time, the leather, the way they wear, everything about them feels more natural now than when they started. It’s been fun to watch them change and pick up character in a way that actually reflects what I do day to day. At this point I know what I’m looking for in a pair of boots, and these just fit into that really easily.

More about this item

These came from Nicks’ “Ready to Ship” section. They were originally 13”, but I had them cut down into shorties.
