REAL BOOT TALK with Boot Aficionado ELY of The Heritage Tribute!!!! 

Great episode…possibly my favorite! Straight boot talk!!! Ps the leather from SB foot on the Truman’s is wooly bully rough out…one of my favs!

Wow - our collections are so similar! Look at those cruisers!!!!

I have to thank you first and foremost Dale, you and everyone else's content stretching back multiple years has made me much more willing to shell out money for new leathers (arguably a negative). I remember when I started wearing anything leather, I was actively avoiding anything with suede and nubuck in it because I did not understand how or who was making them and I only understood they were typically cheaper than full grained smooth leathers and used in boots that were prioritizing costs but did not understand why. After exposure to your content on trumans, I caught myself hungrily pre-ordering Truman's upland boots in reverse black chamois yesterday for 580 dollars plus shipping, a price that still stings my conscience even now, in an oiled nubuck I would have never gave a second glance to just a few years ago, nor would I order it in an unstructured 8 inch plain toe boot, which I would associate more with a work lace up boot. While the black chamois was not my first choice in my queue (I still lack Horween natural cypress and W&C double stuffed natural), someone much more determined than me made that decision for me and bought the natural cypress available to make the upland boot within the first hour while I was waffling about LMAO.

This was such a pleasant and wholesome exchange, bien hecho!

Happy birthday @elyaquino2310 and you really must start your channel mate!

I had such a good time with you, Dale! I hope we can do this again in the future 🙌

In the UK the passed tense of get is got. In the US its gotten. To me gotten is the past tense of got. That can't be correct grammar!

Can you recommend another cobbler in the Baltimore/DC Metro area since your buddy Sonny is gone?
