Stynky Tudor Posted November 1, 2003 Share Posted November 1, 2003 Aye Master LeClerc, after your first couple of attempts, I now spy a fine pair of boots indeed. They appear well broken in and comfortable, great pictures says I. Thanks ya sir! Now did ya be doing the stitching of the “hang me down cuffs” bits yerself, or did you have a trade craftsmen do that fer ye? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endkaos Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 Haven't been happy with commercial boots yet. Most of them are just too damn soft/flimsy to stand up on their own. Best solution I've come up with is to get a good pair of shorter boots, cut the barrel off along the ankle stitching, and sew on a proper high barrel of good stiff leather. Last pair I had was built on a pair of standard Fry boots. They've lasted me close on 10 years but the shoes have finally cracked apart from being wet and dried so many times. Not to mention the gouges from the spurs.Hawkyns Ahoy Hawkyns, I thinks yur idea be a fine one. Especially for the gal's whose husband be a diabetic. Me father's a diabetic and wouldn't wear his diabetic shoes. Now he be a peg-legged pirate. Chopped it off BK..below the knee. Yep, yur solution be mighy fine for those wantin to wear the boots but needin today's knowledge on how NOT to lose your leg. :) ~Tori Like any unmanned ship, a novice sailor will eventually steer into the wind and then in circles.

Blind Rhoid Pyle Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 I bought me a fairly expensive pair o' boots what looks great, from CABoots - Bucket Boots. I noticed they 'urt me feet while stompin' 'round on 'alloween night. Me wench takes 'em to a cobbler, and 'e tells 'er... "These 'ere be ridin' boots, no wonder they 'urt the feet." In other words... These Boots Aren't Made For Walking! I'm 'opin' some Dr. Scholl's or Odor-Eaters inserts will 'elp the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilgemunky Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Well, that's not comforting news about CA Boots - I've had me eye on a pair of theirs for some time now. Glad for the heads up that they'll hurt my feet, but sadly dissappointed to hear it all the same. I AM BILGEMUNKY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capnwilliam Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Aye, Andar's prices look good; CAboots look pretty expensive. Capt. William "The fight's not over while there's a shot in the locker!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Pirata Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Check $79.99 They are a little above knee high but they are comfy and light. Really easy to walk all night in too.

Desert Pirate Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 I talked to Belinda today and she said that the boots will fit a 20'' calf and will streatch a little . I ordered a pair and should get them by next Fri. So I'll let you know how they work out . "There is no safe place in the land of Spain. We'll take the ships and we own the Main."
