    Solid Boots

    These are solid boots, thick leather, great quality USA craftsmanship. I was worried about the sizing when I ordered as I usually wear a 11EE boot, but followed the sizing chart on the website and went with 10EE. They took a little over 2 months to get, and I was anticipating having to send them back for a larger size, but the sizing was right on when they showed up finally. I have had my pair about 2 months now, worn 6 days a week 12+hrs a day in a commercial construction environment walking on concrete and steel mainly, and they are only getting better as time goes on. Coming from Red Wing and Thorogood's I was not used to the high arches of these at first, and it was actually borderline uncomfortable for the first week or so. But now that they have had a chance to break in and form to my feet... these are 100% the most comfortable pair of boots I have ever owned, hands down. Happy customer, I will buy a second pair in the future when it comes time to have these resoled.

    Custom black on black

    Loving these custom forefronts, I wear them for work (mostly over concrete) 5 days a week. Black leather with soft toe, 8 inch, smooth/roughout with black christy soles. First picture is fresh out of the box, second is 2 months in. I did have to rotate the first couple weeks because of the instep, it feels a bit higher than the O.T pair that I own. After a few weeks the instep was still noticeable, but they are very comfortable now at the end of the day. The only thing I think should be included is taller false tongues with 8 inch or taller boots. Impressive build quality and craftmanship

    Custom Bison Forefront Boots

    I am not in the construction industry or related trades. So why JK Boots? Why buy a very expensive custom boot, After all, I honestly use the boots to tool around the house and mow the lawn. If you favor exceptionally well~crafted American made boots as I do. Then you will understand there is not a better made boot than JK. If you are on the fence because of price…. I dare you to buy cheapskate! No Regrets Here.
