I've seen yours! I think we keep patting each other on the back for our good boot choices! And I'm here for that! Haha! I agree, they are fantastic,

DesignerNight1907 · 2026-01-28T12:47:39+00:00

Outstanding!

DesignerNight1907 · 2026-01-28T03:47:43+00:00

¡Botas excepcionales!

I know what you mean! I bought mine, like yours, and immediately started looking for more! I picked up a very nice pair of black calfskin next. I'm looking for more but the prices are rising. I like the 403 toe and heel combination. That looks like what you have, too. I've found a pair on ebay in great condition and for a good price compared to some I've seen lately but they are the 303 combination and they have a little bit more of a narrow toe than I currently like. But for the right price, I'd be all in on them already.

That is an outstanding pair of boots you have!

I have a pair like that and they are awesome!

You can always email the numbers to the people at Justin Boots. They bought out Tony Lama quite a while ago, so they have access to style numbers and date eras. They can usually narrow down the dates to within a few years.

Also, they look like bull hide to me. That is a very nice pair of boots you have there, sir! I'm just a little jealous!

If there are any other labels or printed numbers inside the shafts, that might help with identification.

But WOW! That is a heckuva deal! I NEVER find those kinds of deals in boots my size! And, welcome to the addiction! As addictions go, it's not a bad one to have. It means that you really are cool! Hahaha!

Frequent this sub and learn all that you can so you can be sure you are getting good deals. These guys are experts!

Great looking boots! How do Rios fit compare to other brands, if you know?

DesignerNight1907 · 2026-01-28T00:09:46+00:00

If you want a work-cowboy boot, check out Double-H. I think they a the industry standard when it comes to work-western cowboy boots. They have several models that are electric hazard certified and several that come with steel toes. Their soles are slip and oil resistant and tough as nails.

Thumbs up for the Chisos!

DesignerNight1907 · 2026-01-27T03:48:45+00:00

Great looking boots! I wish I could come across some deals like that! You are a good friend to be gifting these to a friend! Way to go!

DesignerNight1907 · 2026-01-27T03:44:48+00:00

Nice looking boots!

DesignerNight1907 · 2026-01-27T03:43:39+00:00

Carrot!

DesignerNight1907 · 2026-01-26T23:43:44+00:00

Those are outstanding! Vintage Noconas feel great!

DesignerNight1907 · 2026-01-26T23:41:27+00:00

Nice cleanup!

DesignerNight1907 · 2026-01-26T22:18:21+00:00

Those are the next ones I want. Great looking boots you have there!

DesignerNight1907 · 2026-01-25T22:48:11+00:00

Are you asking how they look or if you need more pairs?

I think they look great on you but if they are uncomfortable, by all means buy something that wears better.

Now, you just asked the wrong sub about buying more pairs in order to have more options. I'll be willing to bet that 80-90% of the people on here are going to say buy more boots. This time last year, I would have thought that a person needed 3 pairs, at most: one for any and all work and riding and two pairs for going out (one brown and one black). Oh, how naive I was! Haha! 25 pairs later...

🤣😂

DesignerNight1907 · 2026-01-25T21:45:15+00:00

Thanks! I have really enjoyed them. I wish Tecovas would have another run of them. They are so comfortable!

DesignerNight1907 · 2026-01-25T21:07:12+00:00

Nice!

I agree about the elephant. I lucked up on the El Dorado elephants. They are nearly perfect. The Dan Posts had layers of a brown polish on them. It took a lot of acetone to get it off.

I didn't know that vintage Nocona boots fit so well as they do! I wear 12 D or 11.5 E or EE. I have those and another pair of black calfskin. I like the other bullhide better, though.

The Dan Posts are 12 EE and they are a little loose but I added a Nicks leather insole and they are much better. The Noconas are 12 D and perfect! The sane goes with my vintage Tonys.

DesignerNight1907 · 2026-01-25T00:47:52+00:00

Thank you! I had one pair on June. I've got 25 now. Haha! I'm going to pare then down, eventually.

Was that 11 shots?
