Love 'em, but I can't abide by the bright sole stitching...reminds me of 1950s cheap shoes. But I also know that good boot shops will bleach the stitching to bring them back to life....must be just my tastes...

Now that things are cooling off, I'll get out of my boat shoes and put on some socks and boots. Also, I'll note that my experience with rebuilt boots is limited, but the results were what one might expect (and pay for). I bought a nice pair of elephants on ePrey that were my size, and had just...

Agreed, I have a leather with woven-leather designs over-shirt with starburst metal buttons that is simply a knock out. I found it on a discount high-end clothing site and still paid a pretty penny for it. Never wear it without getting oohs and aaahs--even in NYS. I have seen his western...

Several years ago, in my ElPaso fitting session with Pedro Munoz, owner of Stallion, I admired these Moonburst inlaid boots and he told me they were originally run up for Ralph Lauren. I didn't ask if he meant that for personal use or on spec for a RL Western collection. He has had them in his...
