Contributing Member Tim Schroeder Posted March 27, 2016 Contributing Member Report Posted March 27, 2016 Finally finished my daughters boots. I have made a few pair of lace up boots but these are my first pair of Cowboy style boots. Made a lot of mistakes but learned a lot. Can't wait to start myself a pair. Quote
Members Windrider30 Posted March 27, 2016 Members Report Posted March 27, 2016 Now those are cool! How long did it take start to finish? Quote
Members brmax Posted March 27, 2016 Members Report Posted March 27, 2016 Hey them are really nice, that is some serious work. good day there Floyd Quote
Contributing Member Tim Schroeder Posted March 27, 2016 Author Contributing Member Report Posted March 27, 2016 Thanks, These took 60 hrs because I didn't really have a clue what I was doing. I just watched Lisa Sorrell video's on YouTube and figured it out as I went. I think I could probably build them in about 40 hrs next time. I am starting myself a pair that will be fake Alligator with tooled uppers. Leather is just a hobby so I only work on them an hour or two everyday. Thanks Tim Quote
Thor Posted March 27, 2016 Report Posted March 27, 2016 For it being just a hobby you are making some really nice stuff I think some professionals don't make as nice. Quote
Members LowKeyLW Posted March 27, 2016 Members Report Posted March 27, 2016 Those are awesome... I hope to find the time someday to try my hand at some boots Quote
Members OneCrow Posted March 27, 2016 Members Report Posted March 27, 2016 Great Job! They look great. Love the double stitching to the welt. Please share more when you finish the boots for yourself. Quote
Members Colt W Knight Posted March 27, 2016 Members Report Posted March 27, 2016 Kudos, that is a slick pair of boots. Quote
Members YinTx Posted March 28, 2016 Members Report Posted March 28, 2016 Now that is downright cool. Truly something to be proud of! Making a pair of boots I would presume to be a major undertaking, and those look top notch! I really like them....

Boriqua Posted March 29, 2016 Report Posted March 29, 2016 Those are gorgeous and the craftsmanship looks absolutely first rate. I have several pairs of boots the cheapest being around 300.00 and yours rivals their construction in every way. Cant wait to see your next ones!! Quote
Members Handstitched Posted July 31, 2016 Members Report Posted July 31, 2016 G'Day, Just had a quick look at a few vids by Lisa Sorrell, and I'm hooked. She makes some very good points about bespoke . Those boots are just stunning.
