Grinders Renegade H, Men's Cowboy Boots

The fit is nice for my feet but the leather is really soft and I have serious doubt the soles will stay on the boots for long. I've used these boots for about a month and they are in pretty bad shape considering the time. The leather part that is against the back your heel is not reinforced at all and is very soft so it loses shape fast. Here is a picture of the left boot (on the left) compared to a over 10 years old (yes, TEN years old!!) other brand boot I have (on the right). The other brand heel part is almost rock solid, it has not lost the shape at all, the Grinders boot is so soft you can push the heel area in with your fingers - ridiculous, as this area is under heavy pressure when the boot is in use. The heel area started to lose shape after ONE WEEK of normal daily use (walking in the city, nothing heavy at all)The second image tries to show how the leather has already started to collapse inside and how sloppily the soles are attached to the boots. One minor negative thing is that the nails in the heels are not hammered deep enough into the rubber, so it's very easy to slip on stone floor, so to fix it you either risk hammering them through the sole or cover them with an extra rubber layer.Overall rather disappointing purchase. We have a saying up here where I live that "a poor man can't afford to buy cheap". I wish I had saved the money (bought them on discount at least) and bought something else. 2 stars because if you only use these boots say once a month, these will last you in top shape for maybe 2 years. If you want something that lasts long, go look somewhere else.Or maybe I just got a bad pair - who knows.. not going to buy another pair to find out.

Good quality boots and good looking only issue I have is that they are a little tight not to wear at all but to get on and off this can be remedied by wearing a slightly thinner pair of socks as the boots are more than comfortable enough to do this there was a mix up with the delivery which amazon dealt with very promptly very impressed will buy from grinders again as these are my second pair of boots from them

This is my second pair of Grinders boots and I am as pleased with these as I was with the first pair I purchased. Excellent quality all round. The leather is thick and stiff and the finishing is super. They feel sturdy and solid and will most likely last for many a year. The sizing is perfect - exactly right. Very comfortable to wear also, with no ill-effects so far from all day wear. Breaking them in was easy - just a couple of days. Probably one of the best pairs of boots I have ever bought. Highly recommended.

Second pair iv bought as with the first they are a perfect instantly wearable comfy and with out doubt not the last pair i will buy from this range.

HAVE A PAIR OF LOBLANS WHICH ARE TEN OUT OF TEN, THE GRINDERS ARE SEVEN OUT OF TEN, THE FIT IS GREAT THE LEATHER IS REAL THEY LOOK GREAT, BUT THE LOBLANS ARE JUST BETTER ALL ROUND THAT SPECIAL SOMETHING, GENUINE.TRADITION.

What a great boot ...It is the second time I buy them. Love them Perfect fit

These look like a good quality boot, a little narrow in the foot is my only gripe, but maybe that will change as they wear in over time.They arrived very quickly.Edit July 2017:These boots got comfortable very quickly, can wear them all day and walk miles in them.They still feel great quality, and look like they'll last for many years.

Good quality boot and a comfortable fit
