The thing that bothers me about the vintage denim scene is how most of this stuff is acquired. It’s usually pickers going to old peoples houses in rural America and begging them to let them go “old clothes” then offering a few hundred dollars for garbage bags full of buckle backs and type 1 jackets.

I just scored this sample pair of tool pocket Knappave’s off of eBay. @Dr_Heech do you know anything about the denim on these? I assume they were made at Valencia St.

Just saw some store collaboration in a wood box go for over 2k on YJ. I don't blame him a bit for upping his prices when people are just buying his jeans and flipping them for 2-3x what they paid.

But of course that’s not to say we can’t appreciate a really well made boot. There’s an art in that in itself.
For sure, I would just personally sacrifice a bit on finishing in favor of increased research & development on the last, design, & the historical component. It's easy to spot a maker who is creating designs off of a modern repros and photos vs one who has actually handled a vintage pair. One isn't better than the other, it's a just personal preference.

You should get a pair with a work leather. CXL ain't about that life.

Duke I agree with you about the laser perfect stitching. Overall design & shape are much more important factors to me. There is obviously a standard you should expect from a pair of higher end boots, but if you look at vintage boots none of them have perfect stitching.
