Never been more pleased/impressed with a new pair of boots and they are definitely worth the cost. Thank you to everyone at JK! You got another lifelong customer."

    First time but not the last time.

    Five-Star Experience with JK boots

    ​I am incredibly impressed with both the quality of these shoes and the exceptional customer service.

    ​Product Quality...

    ​The leather is premium and supple, and the laces are heavy-duty and stay tied. You can tell these are high-quality, thoughtfully sourced shoes that are built to last.

    ​Outstanding Support...

    ​What truly sets this company apart is their phone support. I spoke with a representative named Dave, who was patient and knowledgeable. He helped me navigate multiple returns until I found the perfect fit for my feet. Being able to actually call and speak to a real person made all the difference.

    ​Long-Term Commitment...

    ​I am so satisfied that I plan to update this review at the 6-month and 1-year marks to report on how they hold up over time.

    I be back lol...

    Ps. Thanks Dave.

    Forefront bison boots

    Amazing pair of boots I've been wearing them for over a week and they have broken in perfect. I must say I was a bit concerned how stiff they were but 3 days in I was loving them.

    Review from 🇬🇧 UK

    I received my boots today via a third party parcel company. Let me begin by say these boots are absolutely amazing, I can't believe the quality and workmanship that have gone into producing these fine pair of boots. At first I was worried that they are really firm but I went out for a walk in them and I can't praise them enough. They actually have a spring in each step you take.

    The best boots ever.

    I'm so happy with these boots. They came about 3 months early and I had them custom made. I can't wait to start putting some miles on them.

    After 1 year...

    These are the absolute best boots I have ever worn...

    There really isn't anything else that needs to be said about them but, I talk a lot so,,,

    Ive been wearing the Forefront Bison in a 9.5 for over a year now. I think, time has become a blur over the last few years so don't quote me 🤣

    When it comes to sizing, use their print out sheet and follow the instructions. Make sure you set print size to 100% if you follow the steps correctly the boots will be perfect.

    The first couple months were pretty difficult. Ive seen people say no break in time. That is an absolute lie. They definitely took break in effort, as any real boot (especially thick bison leather) should. I eased into it a few days a week. Around a month i was wondering if I had made a mistake. I just kept pushing through it. I ended up going to North Carolina to work for about 6 weeks with nothing but these boots. We pulled 6 10 hour shifts. That is when I finally started to become one with my boots. And the force 🤣 (I do not recommend this approach. Alternate shoes every few days and start with light work. You can also lightly wet the inside of them and wear them at home with no socks to help the conforming process.)

    Ill be honest, it was rough. My feet and back hurt and I developed a bone spur on the top of my right foot. Working through that was not fun. I found that it was an area where the stitching came together that was causing it. It was not craftsmanship error. The craftsmanship on these are as…
