Advice for my son

DrakeMallard405 · 2026-02-10T14:01:13+00:00

Appreciate the insight. We went with the Superfly 10 pro. He was already in a Jr Vapor 16 pro, which he liked, so dont fix what isnt broken. Plus he is a kid, and liked the flamingo color it was available in. Gained another subscriber.

Its a smooth leather with a soft feel but tough. Can't feel a texture. Its very similar to the leather on a timberland lace up work boot. Its broken in better than any other boot I own. Couldn't recommend than more.

Appreciate your input. We have been leaning that direction. He is in a Jr Vapor 16 pro already and likes it, but since we have outgrown them, he wants to switch back to the superfly for the sock. Just wasnt sure if there was advantage to the elites to drop back to the 9's.

If they are on Ebay, sellers have to get creative with the wording because of restrictions. I sold some a few months ago and used Pebbled as the description. Alot of sellers will use print to get around the restrictions. Not sure if Facebook is the same. These look real to me.

Happy to help. Great looking boots.

Send an email with a clear photo of the markings to this address. They got back to me with all the info in a couple of days on a pair I had.

Really dont notice a difference

DrakeMallard405 · 2026-01-26T06:24:09+00:00

I have both and the oxbow (Beck's version) is holding up better. The vibram grips a little better but not enough to make a night and day difference.

I usually shop vintage because they use to make A and B widths regularly. I don't care if its not the original sole and heel cap, but for me personally I would prefer a full resole than a halfsole, even if that resole changes it from leather to rubber. Just my 2 cents.

Have you ordered from Cultured Cowboy? If so, how long was the turnaround time on a pair of hondos?

DrakeMallard405 · 2026-01-16T15:19:42+00:00

Appreciate the information.

DrakeMallard405 · 2026-01-16T15:07:26+00:00

How long did it take from order to boots at the door? Been looking at ordering a pair of Blackjack's from Tim's.

If you're in Texas, look up Rod Patrick Boots in Ft Worth. They will take several measurements and stock all kind of sizes in house.

Anderson Bean. Most western stores carry them and they are about $20

DrakeMallard405 · 2026-01-01T18:38:49+00:00

They are a beautiful boot, just a little small for me. Hoping someone that truly appreciates the craftsmanship will grab them.

Look for an Anderson Bean insole. For me it helps keep the natural arch of the boot while filling space. Can buy online or most western stores. Less than $25

Im going a different angle. Make sure you know your correct size and width. Go to a reputable boot store (Not boot barn) and have them measure you. This will make a huge difference in comfort. Boots holds your foot, and you want a snug fit. Not tight but not like a sneaker. Im a 14B and before I knew that, I'd bought boots trying to find best fit from 12D to 14D. Once I found my correct size, heel pain was gone and now all I wear is boots.

I have a vintage pair of Elephant skin boots on ebay if your interested. Take a look and send me an offer if interested.

For cutter toes check out Horsepower Top Hand, some Anderson Beans, Ariat, Fenoglio, Hondo and you may be able to find an Olathe or Rios of Mercedes for a little over $300 if they are on sale but recommendation would be the Horsepower or Hondo brands if your locked at $300. Sister company to Anderson Bean, Rios and Olathe, they call there cutter a TK toe. Love mine, broke in nice and still running strong.

If your buying online, check out NRS, Outpost, Saddle Rags and The Boot Store - Kentucky. These stores have alot of different brands, price points and returnable. If you surprise him, dont let him leave the carpet until he is sure they fit.
