True story: This guys name is John Robert Burke, and the summer after my freshman year in college I worked at a TGI Fridays with him. He was very weird then, but he has clearly turned up the volume on his weird career...

That is both fantastic and eerily crazy. Perfect for this thread!

Just wait until someone commissions bespoke, cordovan cowboy boots.

When I met him, he introduced himself as John Robert Burke, which I thought was a bit odd with the whole 3 name thing. I asked him if he was going to become a great writer or kill somebody famous. He looked at me for a long moment and said, "Huh?"

These look awesome. High, canted heel, round toe, tasteful decoration. Kind of tempted to get these.

Ha! Well, he's definitely making his own way through the world. Do you think the introduction might be a southern thing? (if he is southern)

It is interesting how we remember names. I imagine it's harder to forget someone once you know their entire name like that, although that might just be because we know all those famous writers and assassins.

Only $1345! That's not too bad.

Thus Bespoke Zarafoostra

This would be a great title for a thread about the Foo's clothing adventures...

I would love for you to get these, if only to say “These are my Breaux boots.”

Is that you on the right? I didn't know RRL made leather caps.....

When you as secksy as me, you can demand anything you want from RRL and they happily oblige. The coat isn't RRL though, that one is run of the mill internet ordered Schott

Some of Lucchese's calfskin boots look iffy to me, but I think they're nice in suede. I have a pair of their suede Jonah boots. I admit, I don't really get why they enjoy such a sterling reputation. My boots seem fine, but they don't seem that much better than my Tecovas.

I've never seen the Tecovas, but I have a half dozen pair of Lucchese and appreciate them for what they are, which is a mid-priced, reasonably well made western boot in fairly middle of the road designs. I tend to buy Rios and Heritage more often these days, as I find what they are making to be a little more in line with what I want at this stage of my life.

The fact that foo threw away several pairs of expensive ass shoes like nothing, really makes me want to go back to unironic Marxism.

On another note, I find Lucchese mostly to be boring dad boots. Rios or heritage are way more fun and interesting. Gimme vintage styled fancy boots over just some brown or black boredoms on my feet.

I think you found the term (dad boots) that I was looking for, and identified the reason I wear those less and less. Heritage (and Rios to a lesser extent) have much better styling and color options in my opinion, and are very well made. That said though, Lucchese still makes a great boot, but they are the Alden to the Barker Black or Vass, and I tend to be in the latter camp when it comes to shoes.

I want cowboy boots to unironically wear these.

Also Gameday Boots doesn't make GSU-themed boots anymore
