Pakistani Boots on e-Bay

Niederlander · February 02, 2023, 05:28:10 PM

Gentlemen, I'm not wanting to buy them, but has anyone on here bought and used the Pakistani cavalry boots for sale on e-Bay? I would assume the leather is "tanned" using camel pi$$ or something similar. Just curious.

I don't know if it is the exact one that I bought, but my last pair was from there... the price was too good not to try them... they did not smell great so it may have been camel stuff.

Fit was a little different than expected, seem to be well made though.

I still haven't found good insoles for them.

Jump in the water and tell us how sizing works narrow wide sort for size, long for size arch hits correctly or not etc. Will be appreciated.
I found some on ebay size 5-15 put in cart could not find a way to specify size, not willing to risk adding payment info to get shipped a random size or just trust once order is placed seller will contact and ask size info

I got an email back they say they have all sizes sadly did not state how I could order a specific size. For the most part I never mail order boots as I have fit in any thing from an 8 to a 10 depending on who made it

FWIW

Years ago Horse Fly had his boots made by a Pakistani boot maker. I am still wearing mine after 25 years. His Boots were the Buffalo Runner brand. I think the boot maker was a refugee here rather than being made over there.

Looking at the construction, I would say the Missouri Boot & Shoe Co we talk about on here some is the better deal.

Lots of Paki boot makers on Ebay. Which one in particular is it?

Speaking of boots, just FYI, Texas Jacks has the Oak Tree Preacher boots on sale for $162.47. These have the expanding uppers and I think a lower heel than Cuban.

Unfortunately they're only offering them in size# 7 in brown. Dang it all!

Well heck, I don't know any cowboys with feet that small!

As weird as my feet are I would never buy shoes/boots through the mail.
