    What were your most significant footwear purchases, in retrospect?

    I was reminiscing today about my longtime obsession with quality footwear, and the milestone purchases that started and perpetuated the interest for me. Listing those below. Curious to hear your own significant purchases, and any stories behind them! - Eastland chukka boots, 1994. They were a...

    Quoddy Boat Shoes MEGATHREAK

    Hoping for some opinions on these boots. They are modeled after the Quoddy x Leffot build from 2012? or so. I ordered them in the February 25% off event. Quoddy was out of natural CXL and waiting on a shipment from Horween, so delivery was exactly 18 weeks from my order. I've owned 6 pairs of...

    Bespoke western shirt?

    Yes indeed - I grew up in San Luis Obispo County where western wear is very much part of the local history and culture.

    Bespoke western shirt?

    I've been channeling my 90's wardrobe quite a bit these last few years actually... Surplus jackets more often than not, and my current obsession with Rancourt boots is definitely rooted in the Eastland's I wore to high school.

    Bespoke western shirt?

    This thread has me thinking about my Grandfather. He was born on a ranch in Montana and lived there until he was 13, when his Father passed. The rest of his life he was in the Monterey/Pacific Grove area. He would frequently wear bolo ties, simpler western belts, hatbands etc., but as accents...

    Bespoke western shirt?

    Loved those Stockburg wallets, but they were soooo bulky. Sold mine way back in 2008. Yours is looking good!!

    Boots made by Russell Moccasin Company -- experiences

    Russell updated their online offerings recently. Lots of great stuff - a real improvement IMO.

    RANCOURT & Co. Shoes - Made in Maine

    The Aspen is quite a bit darker than the Vibram - dark caramel vs light tan. The Aspen is considerably softer. The mini Vibram isn't quite as hard as a Montagna, but closer to that than it is to the Aspen. The mini Vibram's also harden with time and crack a bit around the edges in my experience...

    Oak Street Bootmakers

    The decline of MMM is depressing. I'm a huge fan of Maine Handsewn boots, and they were the only company producing 7-8 eye boots and interesting make-ups the last couple years. Edit - other than Yuketen of course... I tend to forget them as they are rarely available in my size.

    Oak Street Bootmakers

    I've seen older pairs, especially the New England Outerwear line that were nicely made. But the two pairs of MMM I bought and returned in early 2020 looked like they were made by D students in a middle school Home Ec class. Truly shameful "quality control."

    Oak Street Bootmakers

    Some new camp boots on Huckberry: https://huckberry.com/store/oak-street-bootmakers/category/p/63992-camp-boot-exclusive Between the extremely sloppy stitching and the overall lack of shape, I suspect these were made by Maine Mountain Moccasin. Any thoughts?

    RANCOURT & Co. Shoes - Made in Maine

    These new Harrison's have the Rally sole: https://www.lactae-hevea.com/images/semelles/H_RALLYE_2012_02.jpg It is pretty heavily textured, I'm guessing they would have good traction in wet conditions unlike the VERY slippery Aspens. I've had a lot of close calls wearing Aspens on wet pavement.
