I'm an old guy - actual BOOMER Generation, I own a horse farm and I'm not a very fashionable guy. Heck I have worn a flat top haircut my entire life. Occasionally my haircut is in style, but more often, it is not, but that's OK because I like what works for me. Heritage Boots work for me.
I have long admired the styles Heritage puts out; but honestly they are a bit too much for my understated style. I purchased the Apache oiled boot first...my goodness the quality was spot on, and the fit was like a custom boot. I then ordered the Crazy horse leather boot - essentially the same as the Apache without the oil.
My wife and I were at the beach just hanging out together, and because I am such a ladies man, my romantic conversation turned to cowboy boots. She suggested I get a "fancier" boot from Heritage. I really like the blue ostrich boot, but thought the navy color might make folks think I was 'HIP', and that would just be false advertising. So, I ordered this boot...a little flashy but not too much. Again the boot looks remarkable - not like anything else out there - and the fit was absolutely superb.
My wife told me she was going to order the navy blue ostrich boots for me for Father's Day but she said they were sold out. I hate that - mainly because I know she wanted to get them. To be honest, my wife doesn't need to get me anything as the 31 years we've been married has been a daily gift!
Let me add - the ladies that answer the phone/texts at Heritage Boot Company have been very, very helpful. I actually wanted another boot but after a bit of discussion ; they told me that boot would not be suitable for my bad back. They genuinely want a happy customer and are not just trying to sell a boot. That is not common , and neither are Heritage Boots. My advice to folks - pick up the phone for a chat with the ladies at Heritage, buy a pair of boots and see for yourself - like my wife - Heritage Boot Company has a lot more going on than just good looks!!
I have more than 10 pair of Heritage boots. All of them are very well made and comfortable. Cowhide to shark. But these are the best yet. Have now had about 2 weeks. Already they are very comfortable; on the way to most comfortable. Mavens are very helpful, especially when you're buying from CA, like me. Thinkin' about the next pair.
Went to the brick and mortar in Austin and had a wonderful experience. Staff was very friendly and attentive and were happy to let me take my time and gawk at all the beautiful boots. I purchased the JP Jones and they were very comfortable right out of the box the fit is great on these. I’m writing this about a month after purchase and i’ve been wearing them regularly since then and they have only gotten better and better. Had a little sticker shock at first but once I saw the craftsmanship and felt the quality the boots were absolutely worth the price.
