Cowboy Boots

That is the place I was going to send them to. I've been recommended to them by a couple people and they are a preferred resole place from my boot maker. Thanks!

They're on the way, Joao. Matching hat too & a bag so you can post in the murse thread.

Priceless!

These are the boots I'm sending. The white thread in the sole I don't care for.

This is a form of leather appreciation to which I have, if not an addiction, then at least a strong habituation. I too hate white stitching on any footwear. My solution is a small paint brush and either leather dye or at least liquid polish in a colour that matches the leather in the boot. Those boots would be worth the risk of mugging someone for them, damn.

Those are some beautiful full gators. The white stitch debate has come up before on this thread. I've got boots with white thread and some with matching thread and like them both ways. One of my favorite pair of boots are black with a natural welt and white stitching. I enjoy the contrast.

Thanks guys, They are incredibly comfortable, but the white stitching just doesn't work for me. I should have them back in ~ 5 weeks. Will post pictures of the final product.

Here's one of the other boots I like wearing quite a bit, made for me by Old Gringo boots. Took over a year to get them, then I had to have them refinished as the color was a bit off for my taste. I think they turned out quite nice.

There's a lot of work there!

Jack's post of the Pablo Jass boots got me to thinking of another maker I follow that occasionally does some fancy vamp stitching and I came across these.

Best tooled boots I've ever seen come from Wheeler's shop.

I just noticed all of the filigree work, in addition to beautiful tooling and lacing. Amazing!

Pascal?

That green stitching screams against the black suede. Those are great looking boots, but I'd hate to try to keep 'em clean.

Rough out are hard to keep clean & they wear faster & show it too.

Pascal Davayet. French immigrant, self taught and does some great boots and leather work and is also a silversmith. Check out his work on Instagram. Yeah, I'd hate to keep those clean. He does some wild work.

Amen to that

I'll never own another pair unless they're gifted to me.

Been cleaning, conditioning and polishing boots for a couple of days. Here's a repeat for some of our newer friends. Meyer of Houston bias cut American alligator belly.
