This leather is tough as nails!
Viberg Service Boot BCT in Horween Natural Crust Double CordovanBy CellBlaster • April 6, 2024"This pair wasn’t really suited to the vibe of my workplace. I still wore it a few times a week to the office, and tried to wear them as much as possible on weekends, which usually involved coffee runs and intense playground action with my one year old...."Read the full review

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
An absolute perfect tank of a boot, and personal lessons learned.

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

Meermin Chelsea Boot in Du Puy Brown Box CalfBy cows_electronico • April 6, 2024"I wore them almost every day through rain, snow, and sun. They were perfect for the commute and office.

Great for almost everything...."Read the full review

Heirloom-quality boots with undeniable verve I hope to be wearing for many many years.
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
A very well constructed shoe, but I screwed up sizing because I didn't check my last, so no inlays.

Unknown Maker French M47/US M43 Copy in Unknown Natural Veg TanBy Niko • April 6, 2024"I tried to wear them every day, giving them a rest when they got soaked or the occasion forbade it.

Role Club Lace To Toe A-2 Style in Horween Color 8 Chromexcel Horsehide & Unbuffed HorsehideBy BootsetDaram • April 6, 2024"Over these past six months these boots have been a constant in my life. They have taken me through at least 200 miles of long walks to my favorite parks and coffee shops, to my first strike vote, to adventure with my grandparents, to taking care of chickens on El Rancho, through my fourth year as a teacher, through supporting students who protest against injustice, to seeing Zack Fox live, to the MOMA with my dad, through a road trip to San Diego, to visit family in the hospital, to hikes on the beach, to seeing Bad Bunny live, and even to trying on wedding dresses!
These boots have become a part of me! It’s crazy how six months can pass with the blink of an eye, but stoping to document each change can remind us of all of the beauty in each day...."Read the full review
