“Super nice boots. I have a few pairs of Trumans in the 79 last. Absolutely hooked on them. Every one has had perfect fit and finish. I am holding out for this build but with a smooth tan leather option, not a roughout. A man can dream haha”

“40% is much better than pricing for most Truman seconds. From what I’ve seen in the past, their b stock price reduction is the least generous of the major heritage boot companies.”
