Just got these pair of Santa Fe resoled. They were mall boots, beautiful leather and workmanship but cheap rubber sole and heel. Felt very hard. Got them reworked at Izet of Stamford, CT, a true treasure guy, old shoe maker from Yugoslavia.

Killer boots, Bob! They really look great. That's a shame about the box. It really used to astound me, some of the dumb sh*t people do, but I've seen so much of it these days i just shake my head. Just take the bad with the good and keep on moving forward. Enjoy those boots! They'll be happier on your feet than in the box, anyway.

Thanks Dale ... the box will just be lost in the closet anyway as my boots are always out where I can get to them easily. I'm hoping to get more info on them, but Nancie at Justin is not in the office (where the research materials are) due to the office being shut down during the State's COVID restrictions. I'll report back if I find out anything.

Four rows of multicolored stitching. Obviously hand sewn (well ... with a single needle machine).

Says "Comb Last" above "Justins".

"Combination Last" below the numbers.

Those are some beautiful Justins! Even though the box was molested, at least you have it! The other inserts add to the interest. The best part is wearing them to your favorite watering hole! Congratulations on scoring a great pair of boots!

Lucchese makes some comfortable wearing and good looking boots.This is a good spot for them. Thanks for sharing. I dig those gator tails.

Well, I figured my western hats needed some boots, so after spending some time around this thread I decided to go fishing in the Bay. Might not be as nice as most found here nor of a preferred style, but considering my budget and the amount of rotational use they'll get I think they represented good value.

I was pleasantly surprised at just how comfortable these are, so I've picked up a couple more pairs of boots. Still looking for probably just one more pair...

Thanks to Dale, Ed, Jack, and others, but especially Greg for their contributions to this thread.
