Side by Side Comparison of: Laredo vs Dangerous Threads vs BC Belts

Great boot it took about a week to properly break in but after that it is very comfortable. I walk approximately 5 miles daily and wear them for 12-14 hours continously daily no problem. Everyone is also complementing me on the nice boots every where I go.

I haven't had a pair Western Boots in 34 years. My wife got these as a Christmas present for me. They look great and are comfortable considering they are too large. She ordered my shoe size and the boots are larger than she expected. I have recently read that when ordering western style boots order one size smaller than your normal shoe size. With these boots, I'd have ordered a half size smaller and instead of extra wide I would have gotten 2E or 3E.

Beautiful, well made, really worth the money

I first was worried if it would fit me well as I expect and yes It does, it arrived early and was very happy with a seller as they were in touch all the way. I do not know about its quality (durability) because have not started wearing but Laredo is always a perfect brand. Laredo Men's Mccomb Western Boot,Black,8.5 D US

Real nice looking boot.I had the pigskin Laredo boots before and loved them, went through two sole replacements until a motorcycle accident took them out.I like these because I can still ride with them, thanks to the slip resistant heel and sole. and they take a great shine which means I can wear them with dress slacks as well.Well worth the price!

I ordered these boots for my fiance, and he loves them. He says that after a little while of breaking them in, they're extremely comfortable. Definitely a dress boot, and they look really sharp.

Pretty nice looking and comfortable enough for a cowboy boot. Waiting to see how the metal trim holds out.

Nice style, especially the silver trim, but they didn't fit right. Too narrow and 11.5 felt tight. Returned them for another brand.

My husband has really enjoyed these boots. That fit well and he has had no issues with them.

I'm writing this review because I am really dissapointed in how the boot is made. I don't wear them that much but when I do I see that the neck of the boot wrinkles easily and when it does it cracks the boot and the color flakes off..... I don't know if this is normal wear and tear but I think that's a bunch of nonsense..... otherwise they work great. They are more of a dress boot than a work boot

They were shipped on a Monday and arrived the next day on Tuesday... Very pleased with them, not to sure about the "Silver Dressing" though.. Looks as though it could be removed without much trouble if you wish. They will be going dancing at a wedding on Friday night.. I'm sure the boots will last, not to sure about me.. I'm 76... OK!! Went to the wedding, lots of complements on the boots... They fit great ! (Note ordered one size larger and wore boot socks) These are my new dress shoes...

General - It's been 1 year since I received these boots (they were a gift), and I feel I can leave a good review for them now. They are sturdy, essentially waterproof (I wouldn't stand in a pond in them, but you can walk through pouring rain and wet grass and such), and they look fantastic. They are so good looking, in fact, that they can be worn under slacks for semi-formal dress events. They've gotten a lot of compliments and the heel is great for a shorter man, like myself, to get a tad more height for dancing. Having never had pointed-toe boots previously, it took some adjustment on my part to get used to how the narrowing front affected my toes. I am a little disappointed that some of its stitching has started coming undone on one of the sides, but the faux leather upper is holding up great and I have no doubt if I simply resew that particular seam it will continue on for at least two more years. The thread gave (bad knot?) not the faux leather.Faux leather (uppers only I think) - The faux leather feels like real leather to me and I honestly didn't know it was fake until I read the label. It's just as tough and hasn't scuffed or ripped anywhere, which to me is shocking because I am rather rough on my boots. All of my past boots have been all leather with some gortex here and there, so I was a bit sceptical of the 'pleather' and its performance. I continue to be impressed with how the fake leather is holding up and I now trust them with my skin just as much as real leather. It handles mud and sand great and the height keeps your shins protected from whatever you may find yourself mucking around in. A+ job for Laredo on choosing/making the faux leather. Tough stuff.The metal - As soon as I saw the metal accents I just knew I would manage to rip one of them off, but so far I have only managed to bend them! This was another surprise. My friend (250+ lb man) stepped on my heel and it bent the heel's metal accent back a tad bit. All I had to do was take out my leatherman's pliers and bend it back to the original position. They are much sturdier than I expected, and the little engravings on them are a nice touch.Overall summary - I really like these and their durability has impressed me (as well as their fake leather). The stitching coming undone on one section is not a big deal to me and should be an easy fix. Even considering this I would definitely buy them again.

pretty cheap. Not highest quality but not bad for the price.

I got mens boots because they are wider. However, the rubber they use for the sole and heel is horrible. I aired them out for a few days but cannot wear them. I would have kept them for the fit and used an insole but cannot stomach the smell.

The boots were a bit large so we had to return them. They were hard leather as well which with a loose fit would have rubbed serious blisters. I also didn't care for the toe guard.

Be careful when choosing your size - maybe choose about a half-size smaller.

Theses boots are very well made and look great but the sizing is VERY small! I had to return my husbands . He couldn't even get his foot in the size he usually wears and they didn't have a larger suez at the time. They are also very narrow.

A good every day boot, but really now...not a western boot. More of a motorcycle / trucker boot. And, you get what you pay for, there are few details other than stamped leather and those little tips were gone the first day.

These boots were not what I was expecting. They are not as wide as my husband needed and they look just ok. I am returning them.

Needed a size bigger

Sorry...I love Laredo Boots and have three pair but, these are not the quality or sizing I purchased before. If you have a "thicker" calf...this is not the boot for you. I will still buy Laredo but, go with the more expensive pair for quality and sizing.

Nice boots but back Crome piece falls off in 2 weeks of well worn time

These boots are a little too wide for wearing any length of time.

Just got these boots and have been walking around the house with them for about an hour. They look really good and fit pretty well. I have a pretty wide foot and often have a problem with Cowboy boots fitting on my lower foot but these are just right. The reason I only gave two stars is because they are not leather, there is no leather on any part of this boot. This is a completely man made material and I don't like knowing that at all. I work with leather and this is not leather. They look good, feel pretty good, workmanship wise they are pretty good, but when it comes to material these boots are cheep. If it were not such a pain in the butt to return them then would send them back because I paid for a leather lower. This product is not as advertised on the Amazon web site. Had I have known I would have spent the extra money for better material.

Cheap boots rubber soils not what I wantedThanks AnywayHave a great 2017

The cheapest made boots I have ever put on my feet. The uppers feel like flimsy plastic and the lowers I'm not sure if they are actually leather or not. They don't look too bad I guess but have a synthetic look for sure

the boot is not wide enough I need a wider sizeI need paperwork to send the boots back to get a wider size
