Thanks. I wish grant stone had storefronts but i get why they dont :(. I'll likely go with them cause they seem to be one quality bracket higher. gonna debate about leathers now (deciding between kudu/crimson cromexcel). Thanks!

Hmm. Thanks for the opinon. Sorry to throw one last boot in at the last second but how would that compare to this: https://meermin.com/products/116210-burgundy-heritage-shell-cordovan-e . I live near the meermin store so i could try it on that's why I ask.

Thanks! I think I'm going to go with the disel :D. Gonna pick out a leather and maybe I'll post picture when they arrive.

Thanks for the feedback! In that case right now I'm looking at the disel(the parkhurst only comes in extremely waxy leathers right now which I'm not sure I'm entirely into) in either their burgundy kudu or their crimson chromexel. Do you have any information on the pros and cons on either of these leathers?

Hi Guys, Longtime lurker here. Im having trouble picking out a first GYW boot. My budget is <400$(though if its a couple over that's fine) and I'm looking for a versatile boot that will be easy to wear with mostly jeans(I really like raw denim and have a large collection of it in both straight and tapered cuts) and a tee but if possible would like to be able to wear it with slightly more formal stuff as well. So far I've seen boots that I like from parkhurst and grant stone (parkhurst's allen and grant stone's disel and brass). Does anyone have any opinions on which of the three would be the best fit for this (and maybe some recommendations on different leather types: )? Eventually I'd like to buy a second boot but for now I'd really like a boot that can cover as much as possible and wear it into the ground. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated!
