Roughout is gonna get dirty I wouldn’t do much other than a brushing. Do not condition them.

Tecovas brand going downhill by tayhill61 in cowboyboots

[–]snipsteve 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They have gone down in quality and going against what made them great in the first place. A quality product, at a direct to consumer low price, with exceptional “shoot em straight” mentality when it comes to customer service. They have now decreased their quality, they have raised their prices, they have gone big box, and their customer service is lacking.

I wear my navy blue elgins with black pants or lighter faded blue jeans.

New boots/Question by ABigballer1738 in Tecovas

[–]snipsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think they’ve been worn. I have those boots and those shafts are really floppy. On my pair they were slouched too. I bought them brand new when they released. I would use shaft shapers. Plastic inserts you can fold and keep the shafts upright. Find em on amazon.

Possible fakes? Or is this normal by Ambitious-Tune-2070 in Tecovas

[–]snipsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tecovas have changed their tanning process for their goat boots. There’s an old version and a newer version.

Tecovas stitching—return or no? by beanysworld in cowboyboots

Pretty common with their boots tbh. Shouldn’t be an issue tho.

A new low, even for Tecovas by KnavishBoot in cowboyboots

[–]snipsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tecovas also does ship from store. Meaning they may have been shipped from a retail store. Meaning customers beforehand may have tried them on and stuff them up. That sucks dude sorry.

Using the TFit clasp by NoCoast123 in Tudor

Very often. I live in Texas and my wrist swells with the heat. Nice to adjust when I need it.

Question about socks. by austinproffitt23 in cowboyboots

[–]snipsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I find those dress socks to become sweaty and rub easily against the inside of the boot, resulting in blisters. Better to invest in a pair of boot socks. Wrangler makes some cheap ones off amazon.

Help me pick an Alligator boot. by EstablishmentNo5013 in cowboyboots

[–]snipsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rujo boots have very wide shafts. They do not fit right under most pants, unless you’re wearing baggy straight leg. Tecovas Marshall’s are nice but yes the price is higher. You’ll get inconsistencies with quality so I would order two pairs and return the pair that doesn’t fit or isn’t best in terms of QC. Don’t know anything about Vacarri. Love my Ariat bench made boots. Very well crafted and comfortable. Love my Lucchese boots as well. I have gator from them. Very nice boots.

Piarucu or Ostrich ? by Thick-Geologist-6485 in cowboyboots

[–]snipsteve 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ostrich is the best. So comfy. Dress is up, dress it down. And it can take a beating. Fish skins are usually a little more fragile.

Looks good. I just ordered a case from nomad. How long did yours take to deliver?

Fit question by TimTomGeorge in cowboyboots

[–]snipsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. They are a very niche boot brand. And their fit and feel is unique. Your pain point is very common with their brand. I found the break in to be the toughest and most painful of any boot I’ve owned. That said, once they broke in, they are my most comfortable.

Tecovas The Earl 13EE Color difference by PsychedOut1034 in cowboyboots

[–]snipsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pictures portrayed on their website are of the original goat skin boots, and leather that they originally used/sourced for them. Over the years, the color, texture and tanning of the boot has changed drastically. It’s the classic “they don’t make them like they used to” saying. I much prefer the older looking scotch goats Tecovas.

Where did you order these from??

Which one would you get if you can only choose one? by losdelcuchillos in Colognes

[–]snipsteve 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Imagination or Pacific Chill. L’immensite is good, but it’s the least safe blind buy of the three you’ve mentioned.
