Satisfied with the Fit

I like the Floyd last but there’s a noticeable comfort difference between my CXL Brass Boots and my Earth waxed Brass Boots. CXL seems more forgiving and comfortable.

They are fantastic

My first pair separated at the toe. GS replaced immediately as they were less than 2 weeks old. Otherwise I love the lug sole. Way better than the horrible micro stud sole. That sole doesn’t work for me at all.

Final thoughts

Good Value

Overall I love the brass boot style. I shouldn’t complain about the earth waxed commander but it was the wrong finish for the Thunderdome contest. I’m a guy who loves patina and the natural aging process. The earth waxed is a very durable finish that doesn’t age much. Many people would love that quality!
