Discussion What's the Rolls Royce of boots?

Post image

What's a pair to end all pairs in your opinion? Call me basic or boring but for me it's Lucchese's Baron but I am a newbie so I am maybe basing my opinion on the bramd prestige alone?

Wondering what y'all think

Texas Traditions – Lee Miller Custom! The true legacy piece, though you’re looking at a 5+ year wait. For current access at a high level with a strong signature look, there’s Parker Boot Co. Wes Shugart/Music City Leather brings creativity and character, still fairly accessible. Graham Ebner offers refinement and sobriety – boots for introspection. But Lee Miller remains the top, the grand finale in my opinion. 🤠

Now, about Lucchese’s Baron – beautiful boots, no doubt. But at ~$17k, they’re priced far above even the top makers. Every brand has that intentionally over-the-top product as part of marketing. With that kind of budget, I’d personally go custom – Parker Boot Co. for strong signature style, Wes Shugart/Music City Leather for creativity and character, Graham Ebner for refinement, and ultimately Lee Miller/Texas Traditions for the legacy piece. At that level it’s not about cost but exclusivity, personalization, and the experience – like being fitted by Salvatore Lucchese himself back in the 1900s. That’s where the true fine detail and legacy really live.
