Luchesse Boots - 28 years and still going strong

My wife convinced me to buy these when we got out of college - their basic goat skin ropers. No money, first apartment, etc, and 300 plus bucks on boots? Crazy! We'll 28 years later I still wear them at least once a week if not more and here they are. Definitely worn but not a stitch loose and original sole. I want to buy a new pair but then say, why?? 😂
