I like the details on those gators but don't know if I would pull them off.
Probably would end being hidden.

I much prefer a stitched top also. I do appreciate the fact that the top requires a large quality skin or hide to make it & that's one of the reasons it's not done much. It's hard today to even find a pair of lizards where the vamp is made from anything less than ~6 little pieces. The skins & hides on exotics are harvested much smaller today.
That's why a vintage pair of boots like these are valuable.

Tres Outlaws made before the partnership with Falconhead. 18" Electric Blue tops with windows & 12 row stitching in red & white with red piping. Butter Cream vamps with the "A" toe, chocolate sharkskin counters over a 2-1/4" cowboy heel. These boots look great with a pair of brand new dark blue jeans.

Absolutely great looking boots Bama. The unique trim sets them apart from the more common style. Not gaudy ..but quite a special addition.

56, did you get your new work boots yet? Apparently their working cowboy boot is being outsourced because they can't keep up, maybe? Apparently they have several pair in stock now. If you learn anything different thru your order with them please let us know. I could use a pair but would like to know more about who these boots were commissioned with.

Interesting. I've never owned a pair from Don Quixote. Know anything about the lasts they are built on?
I do not. I think dh66 may have a pair or two, maybe he will chime in on the fit. They do have email contact info on their web page.

I forgot Dale had a pair. I shot an email to Bond's with questions. I'll post their reply when I get it.
It's just been my experience that standard Mexican made lasts tend to run wider than standard American made lasts. When Steve Osuna first started selling in the US market he was using standard Mexican lasts for his stock boots. As his sales grew he also got some standard American lasts.
