@mikebarhoot:

Had to take my Luchesse's in for repair. Ungh!!!  6-10 weeks.

Took in my Dad's elephant boots (that he lets me wear) to the local repair shop and they'll be finished in 8 days. Couldn't imagine waiting 6-10 weeks!

^ ….And they took a good chunk out of 'em. ::) Then the morons had to try to play dumb and insult both my mother and my dad's boots. Insult my mother all you want, but you don't mess with a man's boots.

Anyway, here are natural grey elephant hide boots at about 30 years of evo. Other than the gashes from the "repair" shop, not a scuff on them. Elephant is too tough to scuff.

i recycled my elephants after over 30 years.  dig the color of yer elephants!

My Justin AQHA (American Quarter Horse Association)  square toes. Got them at the Justin Store in Fort Worth - definitely a cool boot "dungeon" if you ever find yourself there. Had them since 2010, but they haven't seen a ton of use ever since I left the office life.  Great boots and vey comfy. Square toes might be a "fashionable" boot, but man are they easy to wear.

Going to Phoenix in a few days, is there any shop worth visiting there?
Will finally get my first pair

[mikebarhoot]

looks like they have the typical chain stores.  of which, i like Boot Barn cause they still carry a few made in US brands (including denim ie Roundhouse), and Obenaufs as well as Beck4.

@Chris:

Now that you live in San Antonio, Mike, you really should make a trip to Little's Boot Company.  They have a really impressive showroom filled with custom pairs they've done over the years.  It's kinda overwhelming, actually.

and they are GREAT people

I have about 9 - 12 pairs of boots, I'll put up a picture soon. 3 are Luchesse, others are usual brands, mostly which I can wear going through TSA precheck without taking them off.

So this is what I ended up with:
