More about this item

These horsebutt has shown to break in much slower than bovine leather.

Why I own this

Ready To Wear
Style
Other

Most of my boots are blacks or browns and I really wanted a pair in that Saddle Tan range. I love the leather on these. I have a good feeling these will age beautifully well into the years to come.

How I sized

120 Last: 11EUS Men's Brannock: 11.5E
Brannock Measurements
Compared to Other Lasts

I already have a pair of JLB’s on the 120 last so I was confident in the their sizing. It sizes about the same as a 55 last but with a wider toe box.
