Legacy Toe Cap Boot 6" (Saddle Tan) Goodyear Welted

These boots are beautiful. I bought them for walking around town, as I got tired of throwing away shoes after 2 years when the soles wear out. A bit more formal (Rangers probably would have been a better casual style), but I prefer a sleeker silhouette. The leather feels thick and sturdy, and the construction is top notch - not a stitch out of place. Laces, hardware, insoles, etc. all feel up to the job. I probably could have gone down a half size from my sneaker size, but took their advice after sending me a drawing of my feet - I could have not done a great job with the foot outline, though. The boot bag and additional lace choice (light brown) were a nice choice, and the stock foam/leather combo insoles are very comfortable.

A few cons:

- Break-in took me at least a month of daily wear (30 mins - 1 hour walking per day). The heel counter caused pretty serious heel pain and blistering while walking, but now they are extremely comfortable.
- The colour (saddle tan) doesn't match the photos. It is really a red-brown (similar to Chromexcel Color #8) vs the medium brown in the photos
- The sole material wears extremely fast when walking on concrete sidewalks, and the heel is very thin (part of the style). Within a month I was already down to the heelstack at the very back of the heel. I have already replaced it with a new heel (just over a month in), which is taller and replaces one of the leather layers in the heel stack. It also makes the boots a bit more comfortable.
- The optional veg tanned leather insoles are comfortable, providing a firm feel underfoot (which I like), but were unbearably squeeky with every step, so I reverted back to the foam-backed insoles that are much quieter.

Super comfy, feels like a pair of sneakers. CS was awesome and accommodating. Leather looks and smells great. Only thing that was a bit off was the heel stacks, the glue came undone just a little bit. Over all great value.

I was quite happy with these boots. The leather was very soft but also a bit thinner than I expected. I ordered a size bigger than I normally do which seems to be right. No break in period at all.

Just flat out awesome! These were my first and probably not my last purchase of boots I will make! These beautiful and comfortable dark oak wingtip brogue boots are so versatile and fit just right and I even got a couple good compliments on the first day! Go the half size down from your shoe size like as recommended. Polish them up and let them do the talkin' with your walkin'! 😁

These boots kick a**. They are comfortable out of the box and look amazing. I like them so much I'm considering buying a less formal pair. These things rock! I look like a complete stud in these bad boys, the ladies (and fellas) are always turning their heads to get a second look and my boots
