Going to pick up my first pair of used Dan post python boots right now. They look to be in good shape and for the price I’m getting them for I can’t complain at all. I hope they break into my feet relatively easy! Cheers from Canada eh 🍻🇨🇦😎

Always keep my eye out for a good quality traditional made used boot in my size.

Exotics on the second hand market are fun. Just scored a pair of beeyoutifull Luchesse 2083 goatskin s for $25 bucks at my local goodwill, and a pair of Tony Lama Teju Lizards for $80 on ebay. With re-heels, strip, condition, and polish I'm all in at around $175 for 2 pairs of the nicest city boots you could ask for.

Bought a pair of black double h for 5 bucks. Throw in an extra ten for the dye, conditioner, and polish. And for the most part they look new and fit me great.

I just bought a nice pair of Tony Lama Aztec boots on eBay they are amazing!!!

I bought a pair of Vintage Python boots from a guy in Texas on eBay last year. These are Laredo boots back when they made them in the USA. Only wore once and on carpet the soles did not have any wear on them at all. I absolutely love this boot. I just now broke them in and it’s absolutely amazing. I also have a pair of Tony Lama Ostrich boots with a medium round toe. Tony Lams doesn’t make this boot anymore but I have to say the leather TL uses is absolutely soft and supple it’s like wearing silk around your feet. What’s your opinion about Tony Lama Ruslo boots? That’s their black bullhide 11 inch shaft.

Black with red stitched toe bug and side stiching under a c note. Like brand new very nice indeed.

You posted this as soon as I was looking on ebay bro! I saw a pair of ostrich rios of Mercedes boots with some tony lama snake boots being sold for $200 for both!

[michaelsala]

I have the brown version of these. Love them. So comfortable. Mine are vintage as well. Vintage are much more comfortable for some reason.

[chrisheiney]

I'm bidding on the same pair right now

[WesternWearEnthusiast]

Great pair of boots for sure. Glad Brynna was able to get them for you for Christmas. You lucky guy.

What's the best way to disinfect/clean the insides of used boots?

[carlosmondragon]

Good find, where i am at its hard finding a good used boot. Even our local goodwill and thrift stores never really carry said items. Thanks for another video Jeremiah your my fav channel besides the walking Dead one

[blackmontecarlo]

I was shamed on Reddit for buying used boots. Gentlemen said that "a man should never wear boots that another man's foot has been in." The jokes on him because I have a ton of awesome boots at great prices. Nothing wrong with saving money and going used. I've got rattlesnake and elephant which is something I would never buy new due to price.

[SHIRLEYADRURY]

Jeremiah, I just found your YouTube. Very interesting on your 2510. I have a Tony lama 8540 that was my late husband's size 101/2 D that I'm wanting to sell. I'm not locating pictures of that particular one online . Soles are original but one will need replaced in time. and I was wondering if maybe you could advise pricing.

[robertgray]

What do you know and think about Rudel boots? Seen a few of used boots and they look great. No info and no reviews about them.

[Huarachesverdes]
