Gear Review: Tecovas "The Earl" Roper Boot
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 кві 2022
- My third pair of Laredo boots were ready for replacement, so I decided to go a bit upmarket on a full leather boot. Enter Tecovas!
This is an extensive review on my experience with the boots. Please make your own informed purchases. To see the boots deconstructed, check out a cobbler's review at the Trenton and Heath youtube channel.

I just got the Tecovas “Jason” boot, amazing boot, it’s a riding heel and has a thin rubber sole. I would highly recommend. I have the “Earl” in the bourbon color it’s a great boot. Can’t go wrong with anything Tecovas, they know how to make a long lasting cowboy boot.
Got the Cartwright cowboy heel in black calfskin, and for formal wear the Wyatt cowboy heel in black ostrich also.
I also purchased the Tecovas Earl in goat. I like a slightly looser boot while riding so I ordered a 7EE (I’m a female) because they don’t sell this size much, when my boots arrived they were very dried out. Manufactured date was a year and half ago. I used Bick 4 and it took several applications and did change the coloring. Wish I could have kept the original coloring, but they’re still beautiful boots and feel great to wear
Man I love the no stitching and plain look. I’m ordering these.
What size should I get? Normal tennis shoe size?
I LOVE your cowboy boots, Distrac Teach!! I've LOVED cowboy boots since I was little! I have a broken in brown pair with a more pointed toe. They're a dark shade of brown. I wear mine with loose jeans, jerseys and even baggy shorts!! I LOVE the stitching on the toe of cowboy boots. I think it makes them stand out more. I LOVE how they make me look taller. I'm 5'10" and I wear size 12. Cowboy boots need their own paid holiday!! :) :)
I feel the SAME way you do about cowboy boots! 👍😎😊👊 I want a black pair next, maybe with the metal toe taps on them!! Can't wait!!
I like wearing the Earl every now and then on weekends, but I find myself going to the wolverine BLVD for everyday wear. I like how its a bit wider and feels a bit more comfortable, but sucks they got rid of the "natural" color which is my favorite. Tried ordering the "tan" but it was basically dark brown. Hoping the Earl in goat will be able to replace the BLVD eventually.
Thanks for posting just ordered some tecovas, p.s. my mom was a teacher.
Very nice boots
FYI - The Goat leather didn't need to be and wasn't supposed to be oiled out of the box. The Goat specifically, comes with a layer of conditioner that needs to be just worn to start to melt and work into the leather. Just use conditioner after about 3 months and then 1X a month there after.
Good to know, thanks for the info!
@DistracTeach I have about 6 pairs of Tecovas and I have the Goats. They are awesome and really all Tecovas are great. At the $250 - $300 price point you can't beat them. Enjoy!
I was thinking the same thing. That goat leather appears to be very stuffed with wax. Just need to wear them. I wish more companies would do nubuck, Apache, or similar distressed brown, but Tecovas goat is the closest I’ve seen.
Very nice boots Cowboy Up a pair like them and I worm all the time they look good and are comfortable thank you for making this video
I don’t like to use mink oil. It darkens the leather. I prefer bick 4 or Blackrock. I love Tecovas. I highly recommend the Jaspers. Most comfortable boot I have ever worn.
I swear by Bick 4 myself.
BEST BOOT I'VE BOUGHT YET
Try bick lp it won't darken as much and it will shine better than mink oil
Tecovas Boots are the best welcome to the ranks. If I were you, I would get the other ones reupholstered and have soul savers put on both boots both pairs I mean that way your boots will last forever. The only thing they’ll get wore out would be the soul saver itself, and all they gotta do is replace the soul saver, and your boots are untouchedto suede boot it comes broken already. It’s like we’re in a slipper.
first off...its lah ray doh...not lah ree doh...and the goat skin is a leather you get if you want a worn distressed look...if you want it soft and supple and shiny...should of got cow .. if your gotta condition these goat skin boots...use a special distressed leather boot conditioner...they use goat skin on these because it breaks in quick and looks well worn in a few weeks instead of months and months with cow leather.. and since youve already oiled the boots up they will probably stay that color awhile...since thise oils are now soaked into the leather...when they are new and you wear them the leather shows scuffs and and wrinkles very easily..simply because thats the way these goat skin boots were designed to do
And you need leather dye for the stacked heel and out sole, not oil. Fiebing's is a great brand. Oh, I did want to mention that "Loredo" is pronounced Lr-ay-dow (as opposed to La-ree-dow).
So you really don't get soft shafts from conditioner. You get soft from leather shafts from breaking them in from the process of taking them on and off (flexes the leather).
I like that black keys in the intro
Good ear, catching that one!
@@distracteach that's one of my favorite bands.
I’m I fan of the boot You have there… Good stuff…
Tecovas don’t need breaking in and your never gonna go back to another the comfort is above all other. I have those also they are too knotch
You don't need to do anything to the goat skin
Goats ate just good to go
After about 4 months hand rub some good lotion like Aguilera. You have done alpt of unnecessary work and if you left them alone they would break in in 15 minutes. I have 14 pairs of Tecovas, and I do very little maintenance. Try some Arist Benchmade boots. And don't over due the crsp you steer on them. You are way overthinking the upkeep man. What if you 14 pair of boots, you get anything else done. Throw em on and head out....just sayin....
I hope you had better luck then I did my pair the RIGHT side zipper is a pain to zip up. I sent them back a review and got nothing back from them
I havent tried any of their zipper boots. Zips should be waxed prior to use and cleaned often, keeps them running smooth
Hello,
Can you help me? I would like to order boots from Tecovas. I would like the model "The Earl". But I am not sure about the size. I can't go to a shop to test the size. Can you tell me what size "The Earl" boots are and how long your foot is?
How was your experience with the sizing? I want to buy a pair of Tecovas boots but the reviews on the sizing are all over the place. I wear a 8.5 D in RW iron rangers but wear a 9.5 in regular sneakers.
I found the sizing is close to regular sneakers. I wear 9.5EE in pretty much any brand, including these. That said, they will initially be pretty tight until broken in.
Ive never owned red wings so afraid i cant make that comparison
I’m also 9 1/2 EE
Riding the struggle bus together!
I wish I kept all the boxes for my boots but I didn’t store because I thought oh no too many boxes where do you store your boots, I have a shelf. Not a fashion boot 🤪🇨🇦🌏
You got the wrong leather for the characteristics you prefer in a boot. You should have purchased the calf or bovine.
I don't like new shapes with a big square toe, I prefer the authentic like this pair
I find the square toe is roomier...but the round toe is way easier when trying to get your foot in the stirrup
@@distracteach Wow!!! I'm not going to damage my boots in stirrups
I keep them to skim the beer bars🍻🍻🥃
@@distracteach I asked if they ship to France
no answer for now
7 months in, how are they holding up??
Excellent! I'll be doing an update soon so keep an eye out
@@distracteach Do wear them often?
@@Dnskanh3233 3-5 days per week.
These or the Justins roper?
Id take these over Justins any day
Which prosses can follow to get that boot
Tecovas.com and search for "The Earl". Then select size and color choice.
Increibles
You’re not really comparing a pair of Tecovas with Laredos, are you
Not at all.
Where is Bangladesh showroom
No showrooms, online only.
Chisos!!
Good video. Bad lighting.
It’s pronounced Larado not Laredo!
Any way it’s look sexy & wonderful ❤🎉
THE ZIPPER was bad right out of the box and for a 265.00 dollar pair of boots , you should not have to work on them.
No need to put any thing on them as goat skin is oily..
Not budget friendly prices
You lost me when you said 'lareedo'.
Accents...what can I say 🤷
Eh, you weren't that hard on those older boots for being 3-4 yrs lol
Laredo is pronounced, "La-ray-do."
Not where I live 🤷
be a man .use your hands for doors lol dont be afraid ..and keep the mink oil off of them to lightning them up rub a scuff with your finger it will go away
try the Tecovas full quill ostrich for butter smooth boots and please dont use mink oil on them if you get some use this on them Saphir Renovateur
Save up and buy some lucchese's not 2000's get some good one's. I threw my tecova in the trash definitely a low quality boot once you buy something as nice as lucchese's. Yeehaws are ok but nothing fits like a lucchese. Honestly put 100 a month away and in a year you'll be styling. Hell put up a donation I'll help you out. Good luck and teach those kids well our country depends on it.
