Something a bit more avant garde

I wanted the look of a tanker boot because I have felt that combat boots have always been the most comfortable for me on-foot, the tanker straps were for easy of putting on in the morning.

I was able to place this order as a custom and I was able to DM with Thomas to get everything worked out. Leather, style, finishing, and even hardware color.

These are my daily boots. They are very much a great companion to my daily adventures (I'm a tobacconist so not many)

Leather took only about a week for them to fully break in, once they were locked to my feet, they started to show character after a few weeks. With the powder dye and brown wax coating, they look drastically different from when I first got them.

With this being based on a Munson last, I finally understand why it's so loved. Exposed rebar shank keep my high arches comfortable through multiple 12-14 hour day wears in a row .

I will say that these are going down as some of my favorite boots of all time. I love how it's a wholecut boot but doesn't look like a smooth leather sock, the texture of the leather and the rolls add more complexity when looking at them.

Hard wearing sole and hold up very well for what I put them through.

Hard wearing just like the heel, can be a little clingy to rock if you walk through gravel though.

If you are looking for something that stands how and can get some weird look, these are choice. Great conversation pieces while being extremely versatile and durable. Thomas was amazing to work with and make the custom process extremely smooth.
