The Livingston Boot in Grey/Brown

This is my fourth pair of tops. I love them they’re comfortable I wear them in the shop, wear them to meetings. Very versatile

Bought these for my husband and he loves them. Gets so many compliments and they are comfortable which is as important to him as the style! Highly recommend.

As far as fit, the size 10 Livingston boots (usual size) were fine. Even though I was told by customer service to go a half size down, I did not.

The issue is the overall quality. With this being my first pair of Taft’s, I’m not overly impressed with the quality. There is no weight to the boots and the material used in the shaft is thin, which causes the material to buckle when laced and pulled tight. They could use more support and structure there.

Additionally, these boots, fresh out of the box, had scratches on the leather. Also, on the side of the shaft there seems to be a noticeable repair patch to the grey material that I didn’t notice until after I wore them. In my opinion, for what was received, these are way overpriced. And I’m a guy that does not flinch at paying $900+ for shoes in my collection.

In the hopes for a better experience, there is a custom pair of boots that I may purchase only because I cannot find anything like that outside of Taft. After those, it will be highly unlikely for me to ever purchase another pair from Taft.

These were a Christmas gift for my son . He absolutely loves them ! They appear very well made, they are super stylish and I can’t wait to see him wear them!
