Truman Coach Rambler Review, Sizing, and On Feet Looks 

I never said the size 😔. They are 12D.

Cork is the more expensive thing, Truman uses cork, I have 26 pairs.

What’s the arch support like compared to your whites

Very ironic that you posted this video. Just last week my wife and I went to Portland and we went to Eugene to the Truman factory and I did a fitting. I am a 12.25 C width (almost a B) and they fitted me in an 11.5 D. I really liked the boots but decided to wait and see if/when they have my size in a factory second. And, I looked at the boots you have and also thought "wow, those are kind of orange".

My initial impression, Copper Rough and Tough on steroids. Can't say it's for me but can certainly appreciate it. The more I watch Truman reviews, the more I'm liking them.

If you start to wear real working boots how about trying White’s Boots? (also, Nicks, Franks, and JK boots)

I appreciate the fact that they include leather and round waxed cotton laces.

I love orange boots. I have quite a few, Viberg in Tan Cypress, Parkhurst in Seidel tan, Grant Stone in tan calf, and in Badelassi saddle tan. I love the color tone. It looks so good with denim. Cheers, have fun breaking those in!

Great clicking to get both boots to look so similar. I got my first Trumans recently and they're very well made. They use a full length sockliner and cork filler. You're right that the filler isn't that important. Cork and foam are both cheap, the fancier option is wool felt.

I want that leather so very badly...

Beautiful boots but priced in Trickers and Crockett and Jones price range in England otherwise I'd buy a pair

Coach rambler is a very good choice. Basically 0 care required unless you want to. Just need to brush em now n then. Cf stead produces amazing suedes.

I think after breaking them in and conditioning them, I think they will patina well. I am thinking about the same boot at Nick's. They have a Wickett-Craig leather in a double stuffed Mojave leather that come close to those Truman's. But, they are almost $900 and I have been on a boot spree in the last 2 yrs...3 pairs of Whites alone and just ordered a pair JK boots...I hope you get some wear out of them..

Nice review! Are you worried at all about how tough it is to flex your foot in this? I bought one and am barely able to get any flexing as I walk, maybe due to the structured toe, but maybe because it's too small. Considering a size up, especially as there seems to be too much room between the laces when they are fullly laced up. Any thoughts on this? Thanks!

I buy a lot of expensive boots (Truman is the cheapest, in fact), but the Trumans I have are the most solid build of all of them. Incredible quality. Red Wings shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence! :)

I bought a pair from a company called Urban Wolf in Mexico, custom made for me. They have you draw your feet outline and measurements. Took about a month to get them. Such a beautiful boot but too heavy and stiff for me at my age. Sixty plus retired nurse. I returned them and I was telling him about the weight and being overbuilt for me. He is now making me a new pair with lighter everything. No heavy duty reinforcement or additional material for me. Such a great man to work with and I had no idea he would be able to do that. Guess how much? One fifty American. No tax or shipping.

I opened a pair of mine and it was foam, then people started complaining and then he changed to cork.

These boots look great with those tan pants. I’d stick to slimmer style jeans and pants with the ramblers. They are definitely a wild and awesome looking boot!

Incredible leather. Wish other brands like Nicks would use Coach Rambler.

Yes, I’ve wanted a pair of Truman’s for awhile as well but have never pulled the trigger due to so many people citing sizing issues. Great looking boot.

What size is your mp Sherman’s?

Beautiful

After I got these I followed up the next month with ther Stone Rambler.

How would you choose between the Iron Ranger and the Truman Boot in 79 last? I can find factory seconds in the Iron Ranger for about 270 dollars. I was told by Truman that the chances of finding an 11.5 D in factory seconds were very slim. Since most of the Truman boots range from 480-510 dollars are Truman boots worth 200+ dollars when compared to Iron Ranger? I am looking for a casual and rugged cap toe boot. Thank you!

Great review. I love my Coach Ramblers, and it took me by surprise there is linning now, that's awesome! Hey, where do you get the after-market rawhide laces? Those look cool!

Those Truman’s are amazing ! 🤩

love truman boots. this leather has such dynamic character. once you move through your boot journey getting boots with high character leathers will be very easy and natural. just like with raw denim you level up to selvage then you will dive into the big slub character as you progress.

So you went a whole size down? Are you still happy with the fit?

Gorgeous boots!

Nice boots 👍🏼
