I’m primarily a stay at home dad. Fixer of all broken things, jack of all the things, master of nothing. I wear these boots for all the chores my wife gives me to maintain our small 5 acres in the woods.

Care Routine
Break-In
Durability
The break in was a real commitment. But worth it. Toughest leather I’ve ever beaten the crap out of, and it just patinas beautifully. I used very little leather conditioner when necessary, and brushed them regularly.

Satisfied with the Fit
The fit was tight from the start, then molded like a glove through the break in time. The Thurman makes the world of difference, especially I’ve experienced big toe rubbing in regular hnw lasts.

Nicks Wickett and Craig Toe Cap - Double Stuffed - MTO in Wickett & Craig Natural Double StuffedBy yorkpahomes • April 6, 2025"I wore these boots all but 4 days over the six months contest period. Usually had no less than 15 hours per day in this pair. They went on several hikes, went to glass blowing classes, went to a Ray LaMontagne/ Gregory Alan Isakov concert, they hung out with global superstars, they were worn clearing snow, worn to the office, worn in my woodshop, heck even worn during naps. These boots have seen a lot of terrain from the woods to the city streets, from snow to warm sunny days, from dirt to sawdust, and everything in-between. I didn't baby them but they were taken good care of when they got home...."Read the full review
