Sweet Butterum!
"Anything with Butterum is sweet and these beauties are no exception. This is my first pair of Grant Stone boots and won’t be my last! Exceptional attention to detail starting with the box and packaging. Great fit and feel. Amazing quality and QC. These boots are substantial and very well constructed and balanced outward beauty. Get some! Customer Service was also attentive and courteous."

Best in class boots
"This is my first, and definitely not my last pair of Grant Stone's. I've already worn them on hikes, bike rides, to an office off site, and they are quite simply, great boots to live in."

A genius design idea
"I don’t know what these are. But I love them. They don’t quite feel like suede, and they don’t quite feel like rough-out. The nap is more coarse than suede, but the leather is more supple than rough-out. They land somewhere in between, and that blend works beautifully. The color is peculiar, too. In direct sunlight they read yellow, but indoors they settle into a mellow tan. It’s an in-between shade that pairs naturally with earth-toned, textured fabrics—corduroy, twill, that sort of thing. Then there’s the lug sole. It’s hard to see in photos, but it’s dark brown rather than black, which creates a really pleasing contrast with the leather. They’re built on the Edward last, which leans sleek and refined, with dress laces and polished brass hardware. But that elegance is paired with low-maintenance leather and a lugged sole you’d expect on a work or outdoor boot. I honestly can’t decide where these belong. Are they for a business meeting, or for cutting the grass? A nice fall brunch followed by a leaf-peeping hike? Maybe they’re the boots you wear when you need to stack firewood right after church. I don’t know. What I do know is that they immediately became my favorites. The break-in for the uppers is essentially nonexistent—the leather is that supple. I wore them today for our daughter’s birthday party, then went out to shovel a snowbank to make room for more parking. They were perfect for both. They keep surprising me with how versatile they are in small, unexpected ways. It’s also worth saying, plainly, that these are Grant Stone boots—and no other brand comes close. The craftsmanship is impeccable. There isn’t a single crooked stitch. There isn’t a cut of leather that feels out of place or unfinished. No odd edges, no discoloration, no sloppiness anywhere. Everything is exactly where it’s supposed to be, executed with a level of precision that’s increasingly rare. I’ve owned and worn boots from a lot of brands over the years—Frye, White’s, Thursday, Red Wing, Allen Edmonds, Alden, Florsheim—and I’ve reviewed plenty more. None of them come close to Grant Stone in overall build quality. Not even close. Grant Stone is ahead by a mile. So here’s what you need to understand: you’re not just buying an interesting or versatile boot. You’re buying something that’s built to last for generations. These are not boots you’re going to wear out under normal use. You’re not going to break them. And on the off chance that you ever do manage to damage them, they’re completely repairable—properly repairable. In a world full of disposable shoes and planned obsolescence, Grant Stone feels like an oasis in a land of throwaway products. That’s a big part of why Grant Stone is the only brand I buy boots from now. Once you’ve lived with this level of quality, everything else starts to feel like a compromise. ."

Okay Boot
"Overall I like the boots, but on the left boot the tounge pulls to the left. No matter what I do, it keeps pulling to the left. I plan to buy other boots from Grant Stone, but just be sure to check the tounge prior to taking them out."

Beautiful Boot -- Stylish and Versatile
"Beautiful boot, and the size options are awesome. Half-size down was on the money, and the E width is perfect as well. Extremely happy with the purchase."
