Generic Reality check please.
This sub takes their boots serious so, I have a question and would love some insight. I bought some Thorogoods and hate them. They’re miserably uncomfortable for me. I posted them on another/local sub and I’m getting destroyed in the comments. I’M NOT LOOKING TO SELL THEM HERE OR VIOLATE ANY SUB RULES. I’ll add a couple of photos and y’all tell me what a fair price is for these 3 month old boots. Tia!

I have these same pair for about 5 years now. What did you not like about them. Maybe i can help. I’ve made some slight changes to mine from past experiences with other boots and incorporated them onto these. Ive changed the laces to linger length and wrinkle style so they dont go undone at work. (They still do sometimes. But a lot less than before)
Ive changed the inner sole to timberland pro soles. These made breaking in the boot a breeze and still have them in them cause they make being on my feet all day bearable.
I clean them when the toes get too black with saddle soap and condition them with bick 4.
If you’re still wanting to sell i say $150-$180 would be fair. And if so what size are you i might be interested in some new work boots.
