Thread: Boots

These are my beloved pair of American made Red Wing Beckman's. Quality footwear I feel is often overlooked by men. This pair wasn't cheap ($360), but you can feel the quality. Any of you have boots your proud of, or boots you'd like to own?

Those are quite nice.

Very nice. I like the personalization in regards to the inspection. Until I can afford some Danner's, I'll stick with my Original S.W.A.T. side zip tactical boots.

I am on my third par of Danners in 20 years. My old ones are still serviceable as range boots. When you get the first pair, you will never consider any others ever again.

Second on the danners. Im on my second pair in about 15 years. If you are ever in Portland Oregon visit their store by the airport. I got both my pairs as factory seconds and paid about half the price. Still a great boot with small blemishes.

Anyone have thoughts on Frye boots? I just ordered a pair in another attempt to find a Blundstone replacement. Hopefully they are as good as reviews suggest...

I have the same pair. They hold a polish and served me well during my time as a medic on an ambulance. They've survived two Midwest winters and likely hundreds of miles judging by how much walking I did at work.

I am a Western Boots kinda guy, but since I started working from home in 2012 I have found myself buying more "Outdoor" and "Work" style boots

This year was a switch for the Wife and I from years of faithfully being Sorel customers to becoming Kamik buyers

Much like we found about Uggs (Her Fav) a few years ago both companies outsourced their production to China..

Not that I won't buy and use Chinese products but I refuse to pay premium name prices for them

I ended up making a very good buy on a pair of Kamik "Ice Crusher" that were in the $100 plus area just last year but were discontinued so I snagged them locally by shear luck for $59

Very happy with them so far but them again I have only been wearing them for 2 months ask me again in 2 years hehehe

Boots give me sweaty feet. I have a pair of Western boots, given to me as a farewell after an internship of 6 months in Houston, Tx
