Going to pick up my first pair of used Dan post python boots right now. They look to be in good shape and for the price I’m getting them for I can’t complain at all. I hope they break into my feet relatively easy! Cheers from Canada eh 🍻🇨🇦😎
Exotics on the second hand market are fun. Just scored a pair of beeyoutifull Luchesse 2083 goatskin s for $25 bucks at my local goodwill, and a pair of Tony Lama Teju Lizards for $80 on ebay. With re-heels, strip, condition, and polish I'm all in at around $175 for 2 pairs of the nicest city boots you could ask for.
Bought a pair of black double h for 5 bucks. Throw in an extra ten for the dye, conditioner, and polish. And for the most part they look new and fit me great.
I’ve started to look at my local vintage/antique shops and I’m shocked by how many name brand cowboy boots you can find in decent shape and for a good price. The only trouble I have is that it’s hard to find my size. Thankfully I found a pair of black cherry lucchese boots that actually fit me perfectly, I managed to find they are called The Seville and it’s made of goatskin
You posted this as soon as I was looking on ebay bro! I saw a pair of ostrich rios of Mercedes boots with some tony lama snake boots being sold for $200 for both!
Great videos, I love the original music! Just purchased a very similar used pair and I had a question - can you treat these boots with Bick 4 and normal polish or does it require something special?
I bought a pair of Vintage Python boots from a guy in Texas on eBay last year. These are Laredo boots back when they made them in the USA. Only wore once and on carpet the soles did not have any wear on them at all. I absolutely love this boot. I just now broke them in and it’s absolutely amazing. I also have a pair of Tony Lama Ostrich boots with a medium round toe. Tony Lams doesn’t make this boot anymore but I have to say the leather TL uses is absolutely soft and supple it’s like wearing silk around your feet. What’s your opinion about Tony Lama Ruslo boots? That’s their black bullhide 11 inch shaft.
Jeremiah, I just found your UA-cam. Very interesting on your 2510. I have a Tony lama 8540 that was my late husband's size 101/2 D that I'm wanting to sell. I'm not locating pictures of that particular one online . Soles are original but one will need replaced in time. and I was wondering if maybe you could advise pricing.
Good find, where i am at its hard finding a good used boot. Even our local goodwill and thrift stores never really carry said items. Thanks for another video Jeremiah your my fav channel besides the walking Dead one
Jeremiah, I have a pair of the same 6250's which I also bought used and love them. Can you let us know how you clean & condition them to preserve the unique 'matte' finish? I sent an email to TL customer support asking for their recommendation but got nothing but crickets.
They're awesome right?! Mine were conditioned wrong before I got them so they don't have the distressed nubuck finish you like. I have another pair of Hondo's that have that type of leather and I use Scout Distressed leather conditioner and once that's dried I brush it with a plastic bristle brush to agitate the leather so it gets that texture I like.
And yes.. they are awesome (even though they required some gentle stretching on one of the boot toe boxes). It turns out that the Shrunken Shoulder bullhide is very durable *and* sufficiently pliable. I'm very happy with these boots. As much as I love my TL 6250's, you gotta see the Vintage amber-colored Panhandle Slim Elephant hide boots I just scored! They put a smile on my face every time I see them in my closet (on days when I'm not even wearing them).
Hey Jeremiah, I’m sure you’re tired of hearing about Tecovas but I’d like to see your take on their new ranch wear boots and how they compare and hold up to other work boots you’ve tried like the Hondos.
I would love to but I need a sponsor in order to get boots since I can't afford them myself. I'm working hard to get sponsors on a regular basis and once I do the Tecovas Ranch Wear line is up near the top of the list! Stay tuned!
Hi Jeremiah. I have a pre-worn pair of Lizards by Cavenders Boots in Texas. Does this brand sell well in pre-worn category? They are in very good condition and I was thinking of having them resoled but I'm going to rethink that after watching this video. They are original soles. You can faintly see the Cavenders logo. I'm also at a loss on estimate and have to research. Thanks for your information and videos, and your music.
I've found two pair on the second hand market, one a half size smaller than I normally wear and one a half size larger, both in D width. What would you suggest to clean and recondition the leather on the 6250's? I've recently subscribed to your channel and really enjoy the content, it's been very helpful in my last couple of purchases and certainly has reignited my love for boots! Edit: No more than an hour after writing this I found the 6250's in 8D on ebay. Must be my lucky day, lol.
I was shamed on Reddit for buying used boots. Gentlemen said that "a man should never wear boots that another man's foot has been in." The jokes on him because I have a ton of awesome boots at great prices. Nothing wrong with saving money and going used. I've got rattlesnake and elephant which is something I would never buy new due to price.

Ever since I started watching your vids I damn near prefer vintage used over new lol keep making great videos man!! You are on of my favs
Will do! Thanks so much!
Yup!
Always keep my eye out for a good quality traditional made used boot in my size.
Smart man!!

I just ordered a pair of 6252 shrunken shoulders myself.I love the look of these boots.Great tips.
NICE! That's the same thing as these 6250s except with a J toe right?
@@JeremiahCraig pretty sure,it looks pretty round to me.although i do not know much
Either way great score man. Congrats. I really like this boot a lot. Let me know what you think when yours arrive!
I sure will

Sounds like a great combo! Make sure those outsoles and heel caps look good!
@@JeremiahCraig I'm not gonna buy them it pains me but I don't got the money, you should though and review them 😂
I agree! Can't wait to do a video about Rios of Mercedes boots
I just bought a nice pair of Tony Lama Aztec boots on eBay they are amazing!!!
That's what I'm talking about!! Congrats!
Great videos, I love the original music! Just purchased a very similar used pair and I had a question - can you treat these boots with Bick 4 and normal polish or does it require something special?
Black with red stitched toe bug and side stiching under a c note. Like brand new very nice indeed.

I'm bidding on the same pair right now
I have the brown version of these. Love them. So comfortable. Mine are vintage as well. Vintage are much more comfortable for some reason.
I agree!
What's the best way to disinfect/clean the insides of used boots?
What do you know and think about Rudel boots? Seen a few of used boots and they look great. No info and no reviews about them.
Great pair of boots for sure. Glad Brynna was able to get them for you for Christmas. You lucky guy.

Goodwill has a shopping website like ebay too. It's always a good resource. Most of the used boots I get are purchased online.
@@JeremiahCraig oh really? I did not know that. I will check it out definitely thanks man.

I appreciate the super-fast reply and helpful advice. Thank you for validating that others share my buying-gently-used-boots disorder--I mean hobby! 🤪

Great content
Good lookin boots, I am going to start adding to my collection...it's time!
Hell yeah Drifter! What boots you thinking about adding first?
@@JeremiahCraig JC I think I am going to try something in a Chisos. I really like the boot and who the company is and what they do.

Did anyone know about cowboy boot brand with Orlando brand. Idk if that the real brand or what it was sell for 29 dollars when I first buy it
Mr. Craig how many pairs of boots is too many?
Whatever number makes you happy. There are no rules! Here's a video I made about the topic ua-cam.com/video/YdET_KzSTCU/v-deo.html
dang I let one pass, ill definitely get one if I see one again.
Perfect timing! It's like you read minds haha
haha! Thanks Zach. No need to read minds when I read my comments. You guys pretty much tell me what you want!
What’s a good pair of alligator boots?
I love the look of Tomasso Arditti's gator boots. I talked with him about it ua-cam.com/video/pJatI59wqHg/v-deo.html
