Looking to sell my lightly used saddle tan PTB. Worn only to office or church settings. Only real issue is the natural spot on the left shoe. Told will blend in as the darken.
Always use shoe trees with them (not included with purchase)
Seeking $230 shipped within continental us.
Size 9E
Thanks!
They're calling them B stock - only thing I can think is that there is some visible grain on the upper. Probably counts as a defect, on some planet I never hope to visit!
Happy 4th, GS gang!
Some leather has it in spades, some is more subtle. These are some of the most prevalent in my Grant Stone arsenal. The Badalassi Carlo Oliva Minerva Box in particular has some real depth to the leather, the C.F. Stead Dark Burgundy Classic Kudu isn’t far behind. I know there’s more extreme stuff, like those fuzzy rough suede, or Ramblers, and Crazy Cows , but in my Grant Stone stable this is it. Texture is cool, leather is cool !
Worn 10 minutes and already got dog hair on them
I told myself I would put these away for the summer as the temps drift towards 100 degrees. Well, that didn’t work, wear them all the time. I almost bought the Red Wing version of these, it’s not a new design, but the execution, and choice of leathers… Perfecto!
I want these in a color that will end up how these start once the patina truly kicks in… Like maybe Tan Essex, Natural Minerva, Dublin ? If only Grant Stone read these posts , and could hook a brother up :)
I apologize in advance for the amount of photos you’re about to see. It’s to hot to go outside hunting critters with the camera, so we hunt boots.
I got to many boots, so they don’t get daily abuse, but I do wear these a few times a week. Over the hills, through the creeks, and the slaughter of hundreds of fire ants, and other critters that want to bite me. Then the sun goes down, and out to the bars, and restaurants, they do it all! They match just about any outfit, definitely one of my favorite boots from any brand. Getting beat up, but only better looking with every blemish.
Should I get Storm or Forest Kudu Garrison boots? Forest is $25 more.
Picked these up a while ago for an exceptional price. One of my favorites! Rocking them at the car dealership today
Am I nitpicking the stitching on the soles? I noticed some inconsistent and loose stitiches. Love the color and comfort of the last though! Normally wear 8E in Red Wings and 1000 Miles and ended up with 7.5EEE after some back and forth
Trying to decide between one expensive boot vs three mid range ones.
In my last hobby, watches, buying mid range mechanical watches and cheaper quartz watches with the exception of gshocks and smart watches were basically a waste of money. As soon as I would buy a mid range watch the itch for the higher level piece wouldn’t go away and I would end up selling the lot at a loss to fund the higher end piece that kept its value better.
Does the same apply in the boot world or do all boots not hold value at all.
And given my consumer habits would I be better off just getting the higher end boot or multiple mid range ones.
I am aware it’s all personal preference and depends on the individual but I would like to hear the experience of other boot addicts and how their journey went and which direction satisfied their addiction more effectively. lol
I am aware I made a post before that overlaps this one somewhat but that was asking about Thursday boots which I will be staying away from. This one is more one grail vs three mid rangers type of thing.
thanks and cheers!
happy booting!
Always been an Allen Edmonds shoes mainly and boots but wow impressive boots. Garrison Boots in Forest Green
I'm consistently a half size down from Brannock in Grant Stones. This seems to basically be true across the board. One thing I find confusing is why Grant Stone, and other brands, don't calibrate to Brannock so that they're always true to size? Why not call your 8.5 a 9, for example, since that's the standard Brannock measurement? Wouldn't that be clearer for everyone involved vs telling people to size up or down?
Tried liking them but I dont think the size is right. $200 + shipping

Hello GS experts!
I am interested in purchasing a pair of longwings and I'm hoping you can help me with sizing. I'm relatively sure I need a 10.5D but since I've never owned GS before, I'd like more confidence. I have talked to GS about it and sent them my measurements and outline, but I'd love to get some more validation from you all.
I measured my feet and they measure Left Length 259mm, Left Width 102 mm, Right Length 256 mm, and Right Width 100 mm. My arches are relatively flat. One problem I often have is that I have a wide mid foot but regular heel and toe, so dress shoes that fit my mid foot can be loose in the heel but shoes that fit my heel width can be snug in the mid foot and instep.
Here is a list of shoes that fit me decently, for reference:
Mephisto Air-Relax Oxford: Eur 10.5 US 11D
Reebok Club C sneaker: 11
Vionic Bowery Chase Chukka: 11
Thursday Wingtip Boot: 10.5D
Allen Edmonds Jingle Bell Mok (65 last): 11D
Dan Post Milwaukee Cowboy Boot: 11D
Thursday Duke Chelsea Boot: 10.5D
Thanks!
Purchased GS Ottawas in Crimson CXL back in Feb and have been wearing them around the house. Finally wore them to work yesterday.
These are 9.5D and fit the same as my Brass Boots in Black CXL that are 9E and fit my feet better than my Diesels in Bison 9.5E.
The Crimson CXL leather color works for most of my wardrobe.
Just got these dune Diesels and the toe of the right one has this dark spot with a straight edge on one side. Not blended it at all. Will this even out or should I exchange?
Hello, I'm thinking of picking up a loafer and would like some guidance.
I buy US sized boots based on 10D brannock, 9.5D boots. With thin socks, one foot is right on the 9.5 line C width, the other foot is about 9.7 D width, so I round up to 10D and it works well for me.
I would wear loafers without socks, and without socks my longer foot is a hair past the 9.5 line. I feel like I should continue rounding up to 10, making the loader size 9.5, but that would probably make them too large. Does anyone else order GS loafers a half size further down from their US boots? Thanks.
Does anyone have a light duty job, more specifically a TIG welding job that they wear a pair of grant stones for? How well do they hold up? Fire, and sparks are not an issue for where im going to be working, or dropping heavy material
