Willie's Handmade Boots
Pioneer Lace To Toe
Willie's Handmade Boots
I’ve always liked lace-to toe. And always wanted olive green boots. I saw photos of Willies boots on Instagram and just knew he was the one to make my vision a reality.
I measured and traced my feet as Willie requested. He modified an existing last and went to town! He made them perfect!
It was easy and quick. Willie was great to work with! Boots were ready and shipped on-time.
I wore these about 3-5 days a week. Mostly in-office and commuting to work. Weather was not conducive to outdoors adventures, but did manage to wear them out and about a few times a month.
It is a very durable leather and it holds up well. My care routine was simple, horse-hair brushed after wear and that’s it. I did use venetian cream at the start and end. I did wear kilties made from the same leather as the tongue. There were few sunny days in Ohio during the Thunderdome, so I am sure once the sun comes out regularly I’ll see some color change.
I have odd shaped feet, and he got them perfect! It’s almost like he made a cast, but he didn’t. Just simply a perfect fit.
These are my favorite boots ever. Design, construction, finish, stitching, etc. just simy perfect. Very durable too, with solid construction!
They are very durable, comfortable and I’ve had no issues. Love the look and feel!
I can’t rave enough about these boots. An incredible value for the money, comfort, design and practicality! I get constant compliments!
