Thanks my friend.  Very cool.  You can see some very faint toe tracks on my RCs, but nothing like you see on the Bucos.  Very interesting to read about it and better understand what it is.

[grandmasterben]

No worries!  And agreed, stuff like that is rarely something that you can learn about.  I love how toe tracks look!

[Chris]

Interesting.  Cowboy boot makers crimp the vamps exactly the same way, but I've never seen a pair with toe tracks.

[mclaincausey]

My RCs don't have them but I do like them.

[Bluegrass]

Tracks on mine are very faint… more pronounced on left boot.  Maybe it's not even toe tracks?  Nothing like on Bucos.

[sam a]

^^ yeah I've got tracks on my road champs too. It's subtle compared to bucos, but definitely there. Same on my ace engineers.

When I worked on vintage Chippewa & Sears engineer boots I always thought it was COOL how they put a small double capped rivet to keep the buckle in place. This little guy will age well with the brass roller buckle.
