Grant Stone Elias
Horween Dune ChromexcelThe GS Elias boots are so nice looking. I have been on a side zip crusade since I got these and the Natural Cxl RO. I’ve seen RDT, Unmarked, Viberg, To Boot NY, Lucheese, Tecpvas, and some custom makers yet for the price, I haven’t found one much better except for the custom makers. Even with custom makers I haven’t found found this last to be the best looking (in my opinion) but I have seen custom makers that look better but I most likely will never own one because I have trust issues and I don’t want to be scammed. My loss I guess but I truly, 100% believe the Elias punches well above their weight just like 95% of the other GS offerings. I do like the Viberg ones and the RDT but I’ll never own a pair because I will most likely never spend $1000 on a single pair of boots. I bought this hatchgrain belt from an Etsy seller and I think it looks great paired with the Dune Cxl Elias. What do you guys think? Thanks in advance!

More about this item
These are my first side zip boot with a big shaft. I have the dune cxl Diesel’s do I hope these will patinate to a caramel color. Super comfy. I originally got the same size as my Leo lasted boots but they were impossible to to put on even with a plastic bag in 9D. These are 9.5D and they fit snug how I like and I love the cowboy/engineer style boot.Shop similar
