Boots

[Austin]

Anyone here in the Texas forum were boots? I can't they pinch my toes, like Hank Hill, but I've noticed a lot of younger people wearing them lately, just wondering how many people here wear them.

It's all my Dad owns, when he's in shorts, it's shorts and boots, it embarrassed me as a kid, but now that I'm a dad I understand.

I wear boots most of the time. I prefer Lucchese. Fit well and quality made.

[Austin]

Where did you find them? Do they pinch the toes?

I have a pair of justin's and a pair of shark skin boots custom made from a guy in san saba.

I love boots and ill always own a pair.

[Austin]

Shark Skin? Is the guy online? That sounds interesting.

[AustinTexasXJ]

prolly no. grandpa had em made.

[Austin]

That's a shame.

got a pair of elephant skin black jack boots, made in el paso. i absolutely love 'em, but i paid a pretty penny for them too.

the way i figure it, my $100 nike's last 6 months to a year at best. what's a few hundred on a pair of boots that last a lifetime and need to be re-soled every few years?

[Austin]

I quit buying Nike for that exact reason.

All I wear in converse now, if it's only going to last 6 months I'm not dropping a lot of money on them.
