More about this item

As days turned into weeks and weeks into months, the boots became my constant companions. They accompanied me on adventures, from the bustling city streets to the tranquil hillsides of the countryside. Their leather began to change, evolving from a dark brown to a rich, beautiful copper color . I wore them on high-rise buildings in Pittsburgh, braving the winds and the heights. They trekked to rugged terrain of the Appalachians in North Carolina, for a wedding. And every Sunday, w they made their way to church, the boots polished to a shine as they stepped through the doors. But then, there came a pause in their journey. On January 4, 2024, I underwent surgery to replace his right hip. During those three weeks of recovery, the boots sat patiently on the shelf, a silent reminder of the adventures yet to come. When I emerged from my recovery, I found that slipping the boots on was easier than before. I continued to wear them in the rain and snow . The boots went with every thing jeans , cargo work pants. I loved how I was professional wearing them when I did my estimate , working employees or just hanging out in the park . I received several compliments but the funny part is that the boots on October and November look so much different than today but the same is true people complimenting In October and February. They looked wonderful through the whole journey.
