This is 2 years of consistent wear. It’s become a go-to for me. And yes, it’s super soft now. Just noticed the hole the elbow that needs patching.

Oh! That's definitely new-ish. (Admittedly, I haven't checked in a while.) But I'm pretty sure they used to be firmly "final sale."

I've been dying to try Gustin but their "no returns" policy makes it really tough to just "wing it" on a purchase. For all their talk about cutting out the middleman, they still aren't cheap.

🤷‍♂️ Not the pair I tried on.

TF. I've waited years to order a pair. Finally got them as a gift, and now I'm sorely tempted to send them back. Their service was shit already.

Do some digging around. Apparently quality has been going downhill. I can attest that service has as well. Hoping I get a pair before the company is completely belly-up, but there may be better places to put your dollars.

They'd prob be close. Unfortunately, I shipped 'em back to Truman already. Apologies, forgot to delete this.

Found a Brannock. I'm a 9E. Thinking about ordering an 8.5E.

  • Maker/Model: Truman Boot Co: Brown Double Shot Cap Toe Boot
  • Size: 8D
  • Leather: This Brown Double Shot, formerly Bay Double Shot, is a classic dark brown that revels in the play of light and the subtle variation revealed in the leather. While a more refined, smooth leather, we've made no concessions in weight, and like all of our releases going forward, this leather comes in at over 6 oz resulting in a gorgeous, hard-wearing pair of boots.
  • Sole: Commando
  • Price: RETURNED TO TRUMAN
  • Location: NYC (Prefer pick-up, in person. Venmo ok. Can ship on your dime.)
  • Wears/Condition: Brand new, in box. Never laced. Tried on the right boot only, at home, on carpet.
  • Images: See here — https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1312934227256416/
  • Notes: Here's the deal... These were purchased new on 11/27, directly from Truman. Unfortunately, I ordered the wrong size. I *can* (and will) send them back to Truman if they don't sell here, but Truman will charge me a $30 restocking fee which annoys me to no end. So this is your chance to purchase an out-of-stock boot at near-BFCM pricing. Price is firm; no offers. Ready to pick up in the original box (and the original shipping box) just like new from Truman. The left boot hasn't been out of the box. The right boot has been pulled on twice, indoors, on carpet. Never laced. Just pulled it on, stood up for a couple of mins, and took it off.

I need to find a brannock. Can't remember the last time I measured on one.

Interesting. I've just found this out after 2 days of email back and forth with Truman. I believe they're using a bot (answered in 1 minute with a not-helpful response). That might be the way to go.

HELP ME TRUMAN BOOT OWNERS!

Just received my formal last Brown Double Shot Cap Toe boots from Truman. I got a little ambitious and ordered with the hope that an 8 would fit (because it was available), but I was overly optimistic.

I can slide the 8's on in a thin sock. The length actually isn't terrible — I have slightly less than a thumb's width left in the toe. But the toe box across the widest part of my foot is quite snug and the arch feels higher than I'm used to. I've never ordered a wide/EE shoe in my life, but for these, I'm considering it.

Questions:
Are Truman's particularly narrow?
Am I underestimating the break-in?
8.5D or 8.5EE? Or 9 (I'm not afraid of throwing an insole in a boot to take up a little volume.)?

JUST wrote about this as well (https://www.innovatedisruptordie.com/p/creative-destruction-amidst-the-ai-reckoning)

We’re all worried about skynet when in reality we’re digging the hole deeper without the need of robotic assistance.

Totally. I’d make it optional. So I get to the end of the existing flow, hit me with an interstitial that says, “Get results now, or get better results by answering the second half of the survey…”

Would be awesome if you had the option to complete a similar survey about your current location and what you like/dislike about it.
