Prof Barnet, hot rod of boots.
Prof Barnets Bulky Neocliffwood Engineer Boots in Maryam Black Teacore TPR HorsebuttBy CoolGuy • April 6, 2024"These boots have been an extension of myself. Mud, dirt, sand, rain. I only need to get these through some snow. I have walked all day in the city, and all day on the trails and in the brush.
Since I got these boots. I have, for the most part, not let these things leave my feet. One of my favorite hobbies is to go for long walks. The day is not complete unless I have gotten my 10000 steps in. I am very fortunate and blessed to live minutes away from trails and rolling hills. There are plenty of steep precipices I have gone up and down using these with no issues at all.
Now I know I am supposed to rotate my boots for their longevity. The thing is, these boots are built different; I have found they can take it. Only after a taxing day of activity have I inspected the boots and given them their well-deserved rest. Aside from that, I do not leave home without them. They are so versatile, and, frankly, they still look great in a plethora of circumstances.
It is sad however that my long use has inevitably and undoubtedly worn down the heel quite quickly (especially considering that I usually trek hills). I need to get a resole before I continue with these boots or I will be walking on leather heels in no time. I will be sure to ask for a cobbler recommendation on the discord...."Read the full review

Onderhoud Low Cut LCV01 in Maryam Natural HorsebuttBy daftdonald • April 6, 2024"Mostly around Portland, where they saw a lot of rain. A little light wear in the mountains of east Oregon but not much as the makeup really isn’t made for winters in the mountains and I didn’t want to abuse them. They also went on some vacations and to a music festival..."Read the full review

Jack & White Brothers Letterman ZERO in Badalassi Carlo Mosto Minerva LiscioBy storybook.oak • April 6, 2024"I wore these boots as I would any cherished daily driver. I didn’t baby them, but I also didn’t beat them. They accompanied me on long walks, weekend getaways, office days, and everything in between. I wore them in the rain and snow, and they suffered scuffs, scratches, and coffee spills. But after all that, a wipe and a brush later they’d be back to looking incredible again...."Read the full review
