OneStrangeCyka Posted February 16, 2019 Report Posted February 16, 2019 Hello, all! I've been lurking here on the FISD for a long couple of years, soaking in all the information, dreaming of a far-off BBB day. But I had a question: in 2019, what would be the best option for boots? Where should I get them? How much could I expect to pay? Thank you in advance! Quote
Rat[TK] Posted February 16, 2019 Report Posted February 16, 2019 Imperial Boots are good, but check to see if they are doing a run of them.https://www.imperialboots.comSent from my 5054N using Tapatalk 2 Quote

MaskedVengeance[Staff] Posted November 28, 2019 Report Posted November 28, 2019 Did you end up going with Imperial Boots, and if so, how is the sizing? I’m starting my first TK build and heard that the Imperial 421s run small and should, therefore, be ordered a size up. I normally wear a US 11 or 11.5.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

I also recommend keeping shoe stretchers in them while not in use. as damp leather can tend to shrink as it dries. I use the kind with the springs as seen below. Quote

That’s a great tip about the shoe stretchers! I definitely hadn’t thought about that. Sounds like I will definitely need to order a size up when IB opens up their next wave.
