1904 Marching Shoe
(2016-06-23)
I've been converted to shoes made on the Munson last by the classic American woodcraft writers of the early 20th century: Horace Kephart strongly endorses this shoe. So I got these on his a century-old advice. The shoes are well made from good-quality leather with strong stitching and sturdy laces. They are very comfortable out of the box and will probably take very little breaking in. The wide front area accommodates a wider foot very well. As regards fit, they seem to run large, leaving room for insoles and strong socks. I was a bit disappointed that mine had some scuffing and small black discolourations on the uppers. They will get marks from use eventually, but you don't expect this from a 150-Dollars pair of boots out of the box. There is also some newspaper stuck to the insides of the boots, I would have preferred to find a big cheque or a treasure map....

My shoes just showed up, and they look great. They appear to be well made, are correct in size, and generous in width. A little saddle soap, and some neatsfoot oil to give them a lived in look, and they'll be hard to distinguish from an original pair. Thanks Jerry!
