These Loggers are the best boots that Thursday makes. They are $285 and they come in 3 varieties. The cacao, Matte black, and Arizona Adobe. These boots are super comfy out of the box but they are much more snug than the captains that I own. I wear these casually and I got the ones in Cacao. I love the Cuban heelstack, the 1/2” thick fighter outsole, and the thick waxed rough out leather. The leather is soft but it takes a while to break in because they are thick. I have been wearing them every day since Christmas and they are just now starting to break in. In the beginning they were hard to walk in but I bought a pair of Nick’s leather laces and they are so long I can wrap them around the back of the shaft and still have laces to tie the boots. The waxed leather is unique because the more you wear them the more the wax goes away and the map comes through. Brand new it can be mistaken as a pair of black smooth leather boots. Some of the nap is showing through around where I wrap the laces. The only thing that would make these boots perfect is if they came with 3 speed hooks at the top making it easier to lace up. I don’t understand why boots this tall don’t have any speedhooks. It’s not like you could wear these out for real logging and even real Loggers from the PNW brands have speed hooks. Having those would make the boots perfect.
