More about this item
I don’t remembered what I paid or how long I waited. What I do remember was the price quote was accurate, the timeline was accurate, and my questions were addressed timely. Role Club offers top notch, professional service. The boots are worth every cent I paid and the lead time is worth every second I waited. I would recommend reaching out to them if you want a pair of boots.Leather
It’s important to realize that I LOVE CXL. Navy VXL may be my favorite leather. So I am biased. I feel like the break in time was minimal. I was able to wear them all day 12+ hours of wear (mostly standing) immediately. There was some initial soreness, as with any new shoes, but it was manageable. Navy CXL ages amazingly. It gains a rich depth over time, like looking into deep but clear water. There are layers to the color. It scuffs nicely. And it bounces back with very little work, a little leather cream and they look great. The shift in color over time isn’t drastic, it’s more subtle you notice the change, they seem to glow a little, but you will always see a pair of blue boots. We all talk about how much better the leather looks with wear, I think Navy CXL demonstrates this feature of leather better than any other.
Craftsmanship
Flawless.
Sole & heel
It’s held up really well. It’s grippy and comfortable. Sometimes my knees wished it was soft rubber instead of hard. Even after six months of regular wear there’s a lot of life left in the sole and heel.
Final thoughts
I can’t say enough good about Role Club boots. They are my favorite (non cowboy boot) bootmaker. I would recommend them to anyone looking. The lead time can be intimidating, but it is worth it. The quality is incredible.
