What New Customers Experienced
“Custom supperduty bison“
★★★★★"I got a pair of superduty bison and a pair of ot both very comfy the ot's are harder to brake in. The bison boots are very comfortable right out of the box. Its like your favorite pair of boots kinda like your go to boots. Very comfortable and I put the bison insoles in them makes them even better. Love the boots. I got tired of boots that just fall apart in several months. So I got JK BOOTS. Would definitely buy another pair if I had to but they can be rebuilt."
"Very happy with my purchase"
★★★★★"I am very happy with my purchase! These are a quality pair of boots! The leather is a good quality and the color was correctly represented on the site. I followed the sizing instructions on the site which actually sized me a size smaller than I would normally wear. The sizing information was spot on as the boots were a great fit. The company kept in contact with me keeping me up to date about the status of my order. I would defiantly recommend."
“300x A+“
★★★★★"Second pare of Jk boots in a year. That says something, I value my dollars and were I spend them. The 300 x boots fit like a glove, sizing was perfect. Wore them all day with very little break in discomfort. The back heal was the only hot spot. With a super thick heal counter to break in, this was no issue and understandable.
Picture below is from the first boots purchased the Forefront, another boot so perfect my dog decided to give them a try!"
"A work in progress"
★★★★★"The boots were well made, I'm still breaking these boots in as we speak , so if you get the 10 inch boot , be sure to get the appropriate length of nylon laces for them. I work for amazon as a warehouse worker and they keep my feet free of concrete pain on the floor but because they are breaking in still , it will be a good minute before they feel amazing. If I can update my review I will , as I write this it's July 24th 2023."
“The Best!“
★★★★★"These Bison Honey Superdutys are amazing, the arch support is amazing, they're comfortable right out of the box with no break in necessary on the upper, the insole is breaking in nicely in rotation with my two pairs of O.Ts, I have roughly 60 hours in them at the time of writing this. They're 10" height and sport the composite safety toe.
Great work to the men and women at JK!
You've made me a happy man, with the best boots known to mankind!"
“His and hers“
★★★★★"I got myself a pair of bison super duties for my birthday and fell in love with them. Use mine for everything from getting groceries and daily work to hiking in the cascade mountains. Got my lady a custom pair of forefronts with her company logo stamped in them for her landscaping business. We live very active lives and our JK boots are along for the ride and holding up amazingly. Make JK your next boots and you won’t want a different brand."
“They are just the best“
★★★★★"From beginning to end, this has just been the best purchase I have ever made. The sizing guide helped me perfectly size my boot. Ordering was a breeze. Great communication throughout the process. Then when the boots arrived they were just perfect. Amazing fit, minimal break in and loved the instruction that easily explained what to do when you receive them and maintenance for them. Love the boot and love the company. THANK YOU JK BOOTS!!!!!"
"First PNW boot"
★★★★★"I have struggled with finding a pair of boots that fit my smaller feet and ankles and finally found a found a pair of boots that fit my feet correctly. I followed JKs sizing guide. and emailed them my measurements for the upper part of the boot. they recommended a custom upper based on my measurements leading to the best fitting boots I have ever had. I currently plan to buy an additional pair of insulated supperduty boots later this year."
"Awesome company that stands behind their boots!"
★★★★★"When my boots arrived I was completely impressed with the quality and craftsmanship. My only problem was they were too tight. I called JK to discuss my problem and spoke with Nick who immediately sent me a return label and started the process of having a new pair of boots made for me at this moment. It was a pleasure doing business with an American company that truly appreciates their customers. I will be a customer of JK for life."
"Love them"
★★★★★"I am really happy I purchased these boots. I was a bit unsure if they would fit and initially hesitated because of the no return policy, but I decided to listen to their sizing recommendations and they ended up fitting great. I usually wear a size 12 mens, regular width, went with the size 11/E and am glad I did. I still have a bit of room in front and the boot isn't too tight, almost feels like it's perfect for my foot. Very happy."
