Forefront - Black

It was bittersweet to find out from JK’s customer support that my original pair of PNW boots that had been rebuilt twice by JK from 2016 were end of life and couldn’t be rebuilt again. Based on previous customer support, quality craftsmanship, and comfort I didn’t hesitate to order these Custom Bison Forefronts! They are my first complete pair of JK’s. If you’re on the fence about paying for bison upgrade rest assured it’s well worth the investment. The out of the box comfort was better than my 8yr old uppers at the end of the day no more “ankle bite.” I have not worn my 2 other pairs since these have arrived. I will be ordering another pair of Custom JK’s in Bison before these are sent in for a resole next year.

What a great experience from unboxing and wear them , so soft and comfortable bison hide , a truly craftsmanship that is easy to give two thumbs up , DEFINITELY WORTH PURCHASING THIS BEAUTY CALLED JK BOOTS ! … and I totally get it , that some people won’t even believe it , IT’S OK TOO , you don’t have to , all you gotta do is this .- get a pair for yourself too and you will echo this comment … THEY’RE FANTASTIC!

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.

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
