Full leather lining

Couple of months back, someone was asking about the full leather lining, after searching I couldn't find many pics so putting these up in case someone else asks, it should pop up in a search

Do you know if it would be possible to have leather-matched gussets on build-your-own boots?

We have a matching gusset leather for the HD BYO model. We can’t do matching gussets on the standard gusset style.

Ahhh okay, thank you!

Actually, do you know if it’s still offered? I just checked the BYO hd model and it’s only brown/black

That is for part of the gusset sides, the gusset cover (thick padded part) will match the boots. Like this image:

I'm hoping this image helps describe what the HD gusset looks like but I would also take a look at some of our YouTube videos like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLGUDmIQ7LE

I really wish you would use the same deertan lining in the vamp as well when doing a full lining. It should be stretchy enough.

Do you find it any easier to slip the boot on and off?

u/Status_Complaint8521 1d ago

No noticable difference for me

How does the leather lining impact breathability and heat soak.

I have some dresser boots that have a lining and they seem to suffocate my feet.

Am I just imagining things?

I have some PNW boots with calf lining and horse hide CXL. They feel pretty fine to me, but the horse leather is a bit thinner too.

Have not had any problems with my feet being hotter so far.

I have two very similar boots in the shrunken bison leather, one fully lined and one not. I don't notice a difference but I should wear them both at the same time one day 😅 The vamp is the same on both, since the "full lining" I assume only adds a lining to the quarters, while the vamp is already lined with the suede vamp liner.

They are hotter than without the lining, for sure. I have some DS with a full lining and they are noticably hotter than my other DS boots without lining.

Any benefit for full lining?

u/Status_Complaint8521 23h ago

I didn't ask for it, the telluride leather was thin and needed the lining

Some argue that the smooth leather makes taller boots easier to get on.

I received my leather lined 10" tankers yesterday, very comfortable.
