The Jack Boot in Industrial

I love these shoes! They look great and fit well, I wear a women's 8.5 and the general advice is to scale down 1.5 sizes for men's sizes. A size 7 of Taft shoes fits me well. The edge of the boot can be a bit uncomfortable if you do the laces all the way up, but I don't think it's really meant for that anyways, I keep the laces the way it ships, about 4 eyes down. My only complaint is that the boot came with a small tear in the cloth. It's in a inconspicuous spot so I don't mind, but it makes me worried about future maintainability issues as the cloth seems more delicate than leather and doesn't wear as well. For a resolable shoe maintainability is important to me.

The shoes look great with jeans

I'm loving them so far. They aaalllmost fit perfectly. I have a bit of a wide foot, so they fit me kind of narrow. Other than that they fit great. I get compliments on these ALL the time. I am a missionary, so I am normally dressed in a shirt and tie. I wear these when I'm feeling a little spicy, and I get compliments on them every single time I wear them! They pair very nicely with my mid-grey birdseye suit. I was somewhat skeptic about the wool, but I reckon they're going to hold up for a long time. And of course the inside lining is what really helps with that. Definitely love the look! Overall, I am very satisfied. Will definitely have to get another pair when I'm not a broke lil' missionary boy! I almost wish they didn't have the combat sole, but at the same time I think they're very unique and bold... And that's a good thing!

I wore them to a wedding and got nothing but compliments.

These are my first Taft boots and they won’t be my last. Such a great looking and versatile boot.
