Thanks! I have another "identical pair," but those show far more wear and the stitching also slightly varies between the two pair. The "worn" pair are my go-to boots and have been brought back from the dead several times.
"New to me" vintage/early 1960s Byer-Rolnick Resistol western - Model = "El Lobo," 5X beaver in silver belly with silver cord ribbon. Came in the original box and appears unworn (until this morning).
ANJ-3 set up for the 755th Bombardment Squadron, 458th BG, 8th AF. Tribute to my cousin, LT M.C. Miller, Jr., a Navigator shot down and taken prisoner in October of 1944. Patches by TFL's Siggy.
Thanks Joao! They are very plain - no stitching, except at the top. I have worn these with suits on many occasions. Most people don't even notice I'm wearing boots.
I saw that the logo was the same, but suspected that it was not the same makers. I had had seen several indicators online that Eldorado had gone out of business years ago.
Lately I have not been posting in this thread regularly since I tend to wear the same hats during the work week, but I do mix it up occasionally - like today with my black 4X beaver western made for me by Texas Hatters in Lockhart, TX, about five years ago.
I don't get to wear boots to work as often as I'd like, but today I am wearing my vintage El Dorados (not the Ariat Eldorado boots, but "El Dorado Handmade Boots") in black. I am lucky enough to have these boots in tan (orange), black cherry, and black, plus another pair of plain El Dorado...
