I work for WALMART fulltime. Inside the store and InHome delivery. I walk on cement floors while in the store. And a variety of terrain out in the field. The boots are excellent in all challenges.

Color Change

I had some idea what I was getting myself into for this contest. But this is my first veggie tan leather. The break in process was tough at first. But gradually eased up. I realize now that the break in process still a work in progress. As for care … I bought the care kit from Nick’s and use it regularly. I did notice that on my right boot. There is an area on the leather that is darker than the rest of the boot. Not sure if this is patina or just the property of the leather. Looks too uniform to be natural. This may have come from the tanning process. Share your thoughts…

This was my first experience with a Thurman 55. It did not disappoint. Everything is new to me for now. In terms of of the ball placement it’s the top of my right foot only. I have had trouble before. Overall I’m pleased with the boots.

I’ve never used this soul before, but I’m not disappointed. Very durable lots of attraction. On the comfort side it’s as much a bit stiffer than I was expecting.
