The only pair of bespoke boot I've ever owned is the Gokey "Botte Suavage" Santa Claus brought me the Christmas of my junior year in high school. I'll be 70 in June, so that makes 53 years with the same pair of boots. They do not get much use nowadays as I've switched to Muck Boots, but I quail and rabbit hunted in GA briers for many many a year in them. At least two replacement soles and part of the uppers replaced. The water proof dressing they came with is still available and I've always kept them water-proofed just in case I find the fountain of youth...Geo

Not a reasonable suggestion for Brent maybe but just a point that bespoke is a good option. How much do those things cost now days?
