    Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot review

    From what I can tell, the uppers are just like my other Wolverine 1000 Mile Boots. Same details, down to the heel counter cover. A leather lined, polyurethane footbed insert which is okay. The sole is a sneaker cup sole made by Vibram. The right cobbler will be able to resole this shoe...

    Leather Care

    My brother in law likes it. He's the kind of guy who will buy a gallon of it. I tried it. I don't know if it was any more beneficial to my boots. I couldn't tell the difference. I'm just saying that I don't know the difference. I'm not fighting Wildland fires. I'm just a dishwasher at...

    Broken-in Feet

    But it is a different experience. Breaking in a pair of Allen Edmonds dress boots, would not be the same as the layer, upon layer, upon layer of thick, heavy leather found in a Pacific Northwest logging boot. It all depends on how they made the shoe, and what they used. I own more Allen...

    Leather Care

    When shoe polish is on sale for less than $1, I buy it. Even if it's white. I apply just a little dab. Sure, it's not the right color. But the end result is that I have a layer of polish to protect the leather from my environment - washing dishes at Panda Express. Heat, steam, hot water...

    Broken-in Feet

    I agree. We all have different feet. Shoes are a "one size fits all - off the rack" item. Some of us need bespoke. Some of us are lucky that we can reasonably get by with what they sell us. This is a tough, thick boot. The toe cap with 2 layers of upper leather, a toe cap stiffener...

    Leather Care

    2 treatments of oil, lotion, and polish. 3rd time wearing it. From hard and stiff, to soft and comfortable.

    Broken-in Feet

    3rd time wearing. 2 applications of product. It's done. My feet feel good. I think that it's broken in.

    Third wear. They're good. Already broken in. Very comfortable. These worked out for my feet.

    Experimenting on foods.

    Mixed vegetables with Tri Tip. A classic dish from Chinatown.

    Lunch, Anybody?

    Roast tri tip. With greens and sprouts. We'll call it Chinese Food.

    Made In USA?

    Useful to maybe 3% of the population. Completely useless to everyone else. Now, proudly owned by me.

    Jim Green Boots

    Maybe it's unique to the subculture of the working class poor in The USA. Work boots. Without any specific definition as to what kind of work. Any kind of work that may come your way. You needed to have a pair of boots. Whether it was a production plant or warehouse that needed extra labor...
