I love the threadwork on that! Looks like a Goodyear welt? Should last a long time. I’m actually a big fan of that toe style in my own shoe collection because I’m a size 12 and I think that helps shorten my vertical line, so it can be a really flattering look. I have an everyday pair of leather boots from Thursday, hiking boots from Jim Green, and heels from Red Wing and love them all. It’s an addiction xD

I know, that’s one of the things that caught my eye, the stitching. The website says they are “traditional European Veldtschoen construction and precise double stitching.” I’ve heard so many good things about these boots so I decided to drop the money and just gift myself a pair. Same here - I’ve also got big, wide feet (size 10-11 depending on brand and style). Great for swimming, not great for finding shoes that fit well. Just looked up the Thursday Boot Company… I’m really liking the stitching on some of them, wow! Here in Australia, Red Wings only seem to mostly do boots and shoes for work, no heels… But I am atrocious with heels. I can just look at a pair and my ankles roll!
