Ostrich was a steep challenge, far from the thick durable work leathers we normally use. This leather is fickle, as most exotics are, but our craftsmen powered through completing the project and making a very very divisive boot. Opinions varied widely in production as to whether the boot was beautiful or an abomination, what do you think? Let us know in the comments!

I dont care for a lot of the exotic leathers but it's always cool to see what yall are capable of!

@AlexanderMason1 Год назад

Exotic leathers like crocodile, alligator,ostrich, shark etc are really weak, flimsy and not long lasting at all. They are just for being flashy and showing people you have some money to spare on fancy boots. Kinda like a gold plated diamond encrusted watch. I’m not a flashy guy either..

@TheSLATEcleaner Год назад

Love them. Ultra biased because I already have a pair of fashion boots in Ostrich [SS14 Maison Margiela Ostrich Side Zips in Teal - the runway version was actually in Big Bird yellow, but I ended up with the easier to style colorway]. I think they probably would've been less controversial in the shop if they were in black or, even better, if they had been Tankers, though I'm not certain of how feasible that would be.

Hello Nicks: Like the "Builder Pro 4.5A boot", need one-inch lift on the sole and heel of boot. Will you guys do that?

@1984oner 11 месяцев назад

Can u do the other type of sole the white sponge looking one that doesnt have a heel like that?

@jameshobbs1460 Год назад

Cowboys know the value and durability of "bird" skinned boots. Super durable with only one flaw.. shar edges will cut.. but sand, dirt, etc.. just keep going.. Never put oil product on them.. Condition often as you should any boot.. And you will have them for a very long time. If they did not pass muster then Cowboys would not wear them as they provide little function. Function is king when it comes to boots.. Fun to watch the process.. you can tell that he really did not want to make them.. lol.. Did you know Double H makes two colors of roper ice sole work boots.. full quil? Yep.. Searching and found this and them..

@kath5201 Год назад

Nice boots! But you can't step foot in a real work site with those...well I guess you COULD; but you would damage them real easy. Possibly just a very expensive fashion statement. But if I needed fancy boots...these guys are the ones to do it!! Well done!!

Black soles for contrast.

@simongrushka983 Год назад

apart from aesthetics, does it have any benefits over the cows' leather? also, what's about pigs skin? i've heard it's stronger than the cows skin (of the same thickness). also- when you put the weight in ounces, is that per square foot of leather? any chance to put the g/m^2 as well (not instead of it, just with it)?

@b.johnathanwarriorinagarde7980 Год назад

I've never owned ostrich but it looks better and has that distinct grain and also is very tough. Same with alligator, I wouldn't own a mess of it but one or two exotic pairs of boots would be fun. And Nick's offering bison made me not have to go with JK lol.

@Ally-Oop Год назад

Aiya. They’re…well made obv, but man I wanted them off my screen every time I saw that leather. Like the frog with babies in the skin. Makes my skin itch.

@1984oner 11 месяцев назад

These are awesome i just dont like that type of sole. I like the flat hard sponge type with no heel.

@1984oner 11 месяцев назад

Although it is a good brand of sole. I think redwing uses that sole as well. Vibron. I have seen othet boot makers use it also.

@MomoMKDAO 10 месяцев назад

It's Vibram and they also make the type of sole you're referring to (wedge soles) called the Christy and 2021

@jonsharrar5758 Год назад

Those who know, know. Ostrich wears like iron much longer than say Caiman leather , and with 3 layers of leather I would wear them every day. I keep a least one pair of ostrich cowboy boots in my closet they almost feel like slippers.
