Can we recover from this damage?

Me and my brother been wearing these boots almost every day for 7 months. We use them to walk to school (15 min) and use them for working once in a while. They get wet often, and this happened today. What can we do to fix or prevent this?

Pretty devastated, any advice?

Hey guys, maybe I’m tripping… I know they’re boots to be worn, but I’m pretty sad I scuffed the shit out of my favorite boots I just bought a few months ago….

Any advice? They’re dark forest ostrich.

Finally got around to wearing these

Old Gringo Richmond nile crocodile. Had this pair of boots for a few months but been waiting to dress up to give them a spin. These things fit like they were custom made for me. Extremely comfortable with zero brake inn pains. A really amazing boot all around. I wish OG had more variety because I would like another pair.

How do you figure a price

I have a couple pairs of boots that I want to get rid of. I don't wear them enough, size is an issue, and want more room in my collection.

How do y'all figure out prices to sell your boots? Any suggestions on places to sell? I figured FB would be the best bet

BOTD 🐘

Found these Jimmy Ayer’s Custom Elephant boots in Ivory/Bone White, beautiful boots super comfortable and barely worn in, sadly all the information I could find about the boot maker is he passed away a few years ago, his craftsmanship will continue to live on as I wear these.

Style name?

Really like the stitching around the toe on these Lucchese boots these photos are from eBay but wondering if this style has a specific name?

Tooling maintenance

What's the best way to maintain a pair of heavily tooled leather boots like this "Black Jack El Patron Mahogany and Black" pair I have? My usual cheapo method of cleaning and rubbing in some lotion once a year seems risky with all these nooks and crannies. These are way more expensive boots than I am used to, and I really want to keep them nice for a long time. I'm worried about them molding from too much moisture or cracking from not enough. Advice from folks who have dealt with something like these?

Best leather care?

Just got a pair of Cody James Black 1978 Hayward Western boots.

I'm wondering what products are best to care for them, and if oil is necessary since I've heard it darkens the leather..

Thanks!!

Who makes custom boots?

So I’m trying to find someone that will make custom boots. The caveat is that I planning on going to Louisiana and hunt a gator and I’d like someone that makes them from my gator. Ideally I’d like someone that fits them to my feet and makes them really well with the types of soles and features I’d like.

Who you recommend I start researching?

Mail Call! - Sueded Caiman's on deck!

Picked up these Dan Post Macara's on eBay, new with tags, for $310 shipped. Been on a bit of a sueded/nubuck Caiman kick lately. I have been circling this particular pair for quite some time but could not find a good deal. I love the matte finish and overall appearance of this pair. D.P. makes a great boot, and I'm excited to add them to my rotation.

Tony Lamas style number look up – 6521

I got these boots recently, and I like them a lot however, the boot leather is extremely soft, so soft that the shaft sometimes will fold over and won’t stand up by its own and I was wondering what kind of leather it is

Also, preferably if there’s a link to a website where I could look it up, that would be awesome

Ignore the square toe

Hello :) quick question about sole and heel meeting point on my sendra boots

I am very sorry if it might sound like a stupid question for the more experienced people in the thread but I just got this sendra 3241 boots and noticed they both have a thin void line on the meeting point of the heel and the sole just under the first part what I just understood it is a metal shank , just under the feet not the side where they are perfectly put toghether it does not seem that the heel is loose at all but wanted to ask some experienced people if it’s a normal thing or it should be all one piece without any void inbetween these two parts thank you so much for the help in advance !

Already onto my second pair after two days.. ariats

Glad I picked these up, also $60 marked down from 199 and in my size! Almost just as comfortable, and they have a rubber outsole. I plan on getting my Durango's to a cobbler, for a sole guard, and rotating between the two. Really liking the cowboy boots and the style I present in them.

Homemade cowgirl boots

Over the last month my two oldest daughters and I made a pair of boots together to show at the boot roundup this year and to teach them the process. They were fit for the 10 year old who also designed and sewed the tops. Veg kangaroo top, bull shoulder vamp, goat collar, Horsefront lining. We only had one last so we had to print the other. Pulls were cotton dyed with cochineal
