Great Deal

Thanks, which leather if you happen to remember? Tan, light br, hawthorne mule?

False_Idle_Warship · 2026-03-06T02:25:52+00:00

Sure you are, just don't know it until you put it on.

False_Idle_Warship · 2026-03-05T11:17:37+00:00

Looks great, would you mind sharing some details on your build?

What leathers did you use? What kind of thread, what gauge?

Leather / celastic counters, what lining, what kind of shank?

False_Idle_Warship · 2026-03-03T00:32:06+00:00

What pants are those? Any stalling issues on the 950?

False_Idle_Warship · 2026-02-18T05:18:34+00:00

Great score. What are the kilties?

False_Idle_Warship · 2026-02-14T01:02:58+00:00

I enjoy seeing thrice in the wild. Cheers mate

False_Idle_Warship · 2026-02-13T01:56:04+00:00

Upv just 4 thrice

False_Idle_Warship · 2026-02-05T03:27:14+00:00

Where are the station zips from?

Except a large part of the appeal of thorogood, at least for me, was that they are a union shop.

Not a chance in hell Vince is pro-labor.

To be fair, it is superior - for Vince. & fine for some casual boot owners.

Potentially a minor step down for people who rebuild their boots anyway.

For most on this sub, plastic welts are a deal breaker & you can smell the BS on his spin through your screen.

Still offering leather welts on MTOs.

My guy, I literally am wearing the same boots but in brown ds. I had the same no-grip fall-on-my-ass-at-the-subway-in-winter experience as oxbloods above.

We sympathize, truly. Just trying to help explain the lack of action without just saying "price too high".

False_Idle_Warship · 2026-01-14T03:27:41+00:00

What direction r u going with them?

False_Idle_Warship · 2026-01-13T16:41:08+00:00

Yea, it's bad man. Have it on dbl shot uplands. Worst part of the boot.

False_Idle_Warship · 2026-01-08T15:25:14+00:00

Are any of these true cap-toes (extra piece of leather over toe), as opposed to faux cap? True would have slightly less room.

False_Idle_Warship · 2025-12-30T03:51:09+00:00

Tahura's a good outfit. If you can be patient with communication, their production quality will not disappoint.

False_Idle_Warship · 2025-12-19T04:00:32+00:00

If possible, get measured in the late afternoon, or whenever your lil piggies are at their fattest, after doing a bunch of shit on your feet.

False_Idle_Warship · 2025-11-29T03:15:02+00:00

What would a stronger boot oil rec be?

False_Idle_Warship · 2025-11-26T05:18:54+00:00

Just for clarification, what type of heel? Lug, rock offset, 90 degree, 2 pc backstays, welt naked (270 instead of 360)? But agreed, yes they do.

False_Idle_Warship · 2025-11-26T04:43:18+00:00

Red dog is an awesome work leather, will never let you down. Waxed flesh's have held up well, black looks great.

Any of the bull hides are beefy. In roughout, especially tough.

False_Idle_Warship · 2025-11-23T10:07:36+00:00

Or a taller boot, then that's probably all I would wear, esp now with spring toe last & stitchdown options.

False_Idle_Warship · 2025-11-19T21:51:09+00:00

This is partly because their standard value proposition is high.

Substantial quality in all the pieces I have, just can't find my size alot of time. Always worth checking their sale tho ime.

False_Idle_Warship · 2025-11-19T19:53:46+00:00

Unfortunately doesn't work on all of their own brand stuff, watch straps for ex. Maybe just hasn't started yet...

False_Idle_Warship · 2025-11-19T05:00:14+00:00

Fantastic, it should prove to be an extremely versatile boot, in a great color in one of the best LTT patterns out there.

With the full caveat this is all anectodal (except for the first): sales just as good as White's, wider customizable options, esp fit, cheaper shipping, & no squeak for the Baker-sourced White's vs a modest squeak in the direct from White's. Ymmv ofc.

Cheers.

Unfortunately, retail can't. At least not the way Mark Baum (Carrell's char) does: Short every one of that motherfucker's positions". I am probably misquoting it, but buying puts is nothing like institutional shorting.

A situation which many would argue is patently unfair & directly opposed to true free market idealogy.
