“Great Boots“

★★★★★

"Purchased the 8" forefront safety toe in redwood during the Black Friday sale. Got them about 2 months later, they came with the bison leather insoles which are a nice upgrade. They took a few weeks to break in and if I'm being honest they get more comfortable each day. We will see how they hold up over time but I've had them out in the elements in the mud, snow, rain and salt and they've handled everything well so far, kept my feet dry too. Ended up purchasing the ot 8" to rotate with the forefronts. Would not hesitate to purchase again."

“**** Fine Pair Of Boots“

★★★★★

"I am a furniture maker, and while I spend a good amount of time in the shop doing fine detail work, I also spend time in the dust and mud of lumber yards and back yards and mills finding that perfect slab. Often I end the day with aching feet and an aching back. After several years of research (and sticker shock!) I pulled the trigger on a pair of JK’s, and it has been a gamechanger. These are comfortable, attractive, and sturdy as ****. I will be buying from them again."

Spencer S. Verified Buyer O.T. (Safety Toe) - Redwood (Rough)

“Great fit, tough boot, great quality build.“

★★★★★

"These are great boots. I put them straight to work. The break in wasn’t too bad. About 2 weeks to really feel right. Now they’re molded perfectly. I do wish JK offered a different gala tongue style. Not a hold back by any means in any way. Just a personal preference for looks. I just cut mine with a razor to look rounded instead of the standard. All in all I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! First photos are when I received them, the last is after about a month or hard work."

“Glad I read the fitting help packet“

★★★★★

"I was impressed with the accuracy of sizing process, it took about 8 weeks to get these and worth the wait I was a little worried at first about the sizing, but after reading the fitting help suggestions (they seemed a bit big) they started feeling better just walking around the house. Wore them to work the next day with cord laces and they felt great, switched to leather laces now. First time owning a hand made work boot and the raised heel/instep are great."

Josh Verified Buyer O.T. 6" (Safety Toe) - Redwood

“Exactly what I needed!“

★★★★★

"Whenever I buy a new pair of boots, I buy them to be first used as every day boots, church, boots, going out boots. When they start getting worn down to the point where they don’t look good enough for regular wear, that’s when I start using them for work. These are beautiful boots, and at my age, if I don’t have the right shoe or boot on my hip and back start giving me problems. The second I slipped these on any hip or back pain goes away immediately!"

Mike D. Verified Buyer O.T. - Brown (Rough)

“Awesome boots“

★★★★★

"These were the easiest boots to break in first 2 days the right boot was a tight across my toes left was perfect by day 3 no issues at all I oiled they heavily where they were tight and now they are perfect match to my foot. **** these more comfortable than my shoes other than they are heavier than my shoes but feet don't hurt after working in them all day and they go great with shorts being 6 in boot highly recommend."

Joe S. Verified Buyer O.T. 6" - Black

“Best heavy use boots I own“

★★★★★

"I mostly wear Origin boots & got into higher quality custom boots (Like *****). And that rabbit hole led me here to JK boots. These are the same super high quality durable boots but without a ridiculous 16+ week lead time. I got these in the perfect size within 10 days of my order, break in with the bison leather is a breeze and they are my daily wear right now when I'm working."

Stephen B. Verified Buyer Superduty Bison (Roughout/Smooth)

“Quality Craftsmanship and a work horse boot“

★★★★★

"It's been a month and I could not be more pleased. Excellent craftsmanship, ingenuity for arch support, impact absorption in work and natural movement, durability and style. I look forward to how these will wear in the longer haul. Thank you JK Boots for your work in determining the perfect fit and your attention to detail in your craft. Awesome."

Suzanne H. Verified Buyer O.T. Bison

“JK Service“

★★★★★

"AWESOME BOOT! I have had them all...White's, Nick's, etc. Started having them all rebuilt into JK's. After having a severe leg break, and needing a good supportive boot I could get my leg into, I ordered the OT's...unbelievable. I can walk/work without pain, and they are the best all around boot I have ever owned! They will NOT be my last pair!"

Grant C. Verified Buyer O.T. - Redwood (Rough)
