      For a beating, definitely, 100%, dress leather. The only problem is that it is so dark, it is almost black, but it does age really well.

      Try PM'ing Ed (Demonito), I know he rates the smooth leather too, and I know people also like Bullhide for durability.

            Difficult question, which depends mainly on how often, and what you treat the leather with, and how long you are willing to age them.

              I've noticed with wear the brown is starting to peak through on areas that are getting scuffed.

                        Brown dress vs. brown smooth vs. brown horsehide? For durability? Comfort?

                          I still go with brown dress, but I have absolutely no experience with the horsehide, only what I have read.

                            I think horse hide is slightly more durable, but in boot applications, I dont think it would make much of a difference.  I also think the grain structure on HH is a bit tighter than standard cow.

                                  I like the original cloth laces much better myself but they don't seem to sell them anymore.

                                          Thank but I want the exact same make-up as above.  A member owns them, I'm sure of it….

                                            Was going to say the same thing. Even if they weren't, he would surely know the make up/ specs.
