Last boots you’ll ever own!

Last boots you’ll ever own!
After searching for a good looking tall work boot, I landed on Thorogood. I bought my first pair 2 years ago and just now received my new pair. Not one day did my feet hurt, not one day did these boots let me down. I finally wore through the side by my pinky toe and that is the only reason I got a new pair. I love wearing these boots, they are extremely comfortable and I am probably a lifetime customer now. I can not say enough. They don’t fatigue me, even after hours of standing and working. Really just a top quality boot! Can’t wait to break them in, there is some pressure around the laces for the first few days but it well worth it once it goes away and it’s really only minor. I look forward to putting these boots on everyday.
