Wonder if these are more along the Classic line. Not sure what a composite sole is, rubber and leather?
Not sure when Lucchese branched out into their different grades. Classics, 1883 and 2000's. They used to make the 1883 here, it just wasn't all handmade as the Classic is. 1883 is now made out of country. Composite sole is just what I refer to as a non-leather sole. Appears it may be some type of rubber, maybe something they once marketed as a work boot. Very clean, good looking boot.
