Lots of TX history here and some good info on a renowned bootmaker. Interesting subject for a thesis.

In this heat and humidity I could use a pair of his boots.

Joao, pm me the issues you're having with the boots. Maybe threre is something I can help you with or maybe your Portuguese feet just weren't made for wearing high end U S made manly footwear.
I don't know. Maybe the problem are my feet. For years I wore tennis shoes. They probably are not used to run over hard leather/surface. I should find something to put between my feet and the boot sole.

If the boots are not too tight a padded insole might help. They are an adjustment if you've never worn them. I just can't remember when I didn't.

They aren't too tight but they are not loose too. Some times I have to stand up for 4 hours or more and my feet start to hurt for about 1 to 2h then I need to take them off.
Need to find my old tennis shoes.
