If it was not for my long arch and short toes that 56 might tempt me. But the 79 last has a large amount of room in front of my toes as it is and fits well.
I owned a pair of Java Waxed flesh 79 last, they fit well, but the sole Truman used on that model was very soft and cheap. Hurt my feet and started to wear out quickly. Bought another pair of 79 last in Coyote Rough out, same size with the Eugene grind sole. This time, the sole was very nice, but somehow the exact same size boot was smaller than the previous pair I had purchased and now I have to sell them at a massive loss on eBay. I love the look of Truman’s, but this is not the type of issues I should be having when purchasing a $500 pair of boots. I would love to give them more business, but I just don’t know that I’m comfortable with the risk.
there never seems to be anything in stock in size 12 d on Trumans website, lost my sale on 3 diff pair of boots where I was shopping this fall and ended up buying boots from other brands
Damn.. those are some sexy damn boots.. no Tay, cylinder walking foot machine, cylinder walking foot machine.. don’t even pick that phone up, stay focused!!..😅 this channel is torture when I’m saving for something beside boots but I must do it to myself anyway😂
phased out the 55..?? i thought they only did the 79 and 20 lasts.. is this the same 55 last that White's, Frank's, and Nick's does..??? or was that just a mixup..? I can't imagine it's the same if Truman does it as well bc Truman doesn't do the high leather arch shanks right..? Thanks for the content,, that horserump quality looks great.. I'd love to try something from Gallun.. and i agree, those outsoles are sick.. i might have to get around to trying something from Truman soon : )
Truman originally called this last the C55 last, but haven’t run it often but I think they did a very good job . The Truman’s C55 is definitely night and day different from the white’s 55, completely different dimensions! Thanks for your kind words my friend 🙏
Why wont they take orders? Everything is always out of stock every time i check Truman i cant order my size. I would only want a 20 last shoe and they don’t seem to like to make that size either. Consequently Ive given up trying to figure out when i can order from them. Beautiful boots they all look amazing.
@ ive been popping on their website all year and my size (9.5-10 wide) which is pretty common, is almost never available to order. Which is why I’ve spent thousands with whites, grantsone, chisos, jim green, and other companies…Because you can actually order a boot. If They just made their boots more attainable you’d think they might sell more..?
@87xjmike they used to do build to order and made to order. a couple years ago they switched to ready made and the very very occasional made to order. apparently that model has worked well for them according to Vince. personally I wish they at least did the consistent made to order, because I agree I imagine they'd sell more if they offered that service.
Not a chance, just rumors. Why would a company take pre orders of their flagship Java Wax Flesh Boots with an 8 to 12 week shipping time just to close its doors?

I love this channel so much. Another excellent music selection as always. And those boots...wowza!
That 56 last boot looks awesome i dont see it on there website , hopefully they make more available 56 last boots
I wish Truman did more MTO stuff. Great quality boots.
That's handsome. I have a pair on the 79 in military horse rump, which has kind of a nubuck finish and isn't as striking.
Nice! Still waiting on my upland MTO from September in the Olive Stag. Also picked the regrind sole
The Upland MTO is worth the wait! Hope you like the regrind soles!!
Great looking last! Thanks for sharing, Dale 🙌
3:55 I’ve bought that Sour Mash from Michters before. It was quite nice.
Happy New Year, Dale!
I like it’s called a 56 last. I kept mistaking their old 55 last for the traditional PNW 55 last lol.
56 Last is awesome looking. Like it more than the 79.

Awesome intro ! Happy New Year Dale 🎉
Great video, cheers 🥃

I was going to purchase a pair last night and they were all sold out in 12 d in almost everything so I’m ordering a pair of White’s now

I’m right there with ya, gotta keep those boots in check! 🙏
I like truman knowing they have in stock boots i hate mto and have to wait
I want one !
Dale - what do you find in sizing between Caswell Morris last and the Truman 56? Similar in width and length?
phased out the 55..?? i thought they only did the 79 and 20 lasts..
is this the same 55 last that White's, Frank's, and Nick's does..???
or was that just a mixup..? I can't imagine it's the same if Truman does
it as well bc Truman doesn't do the high leather arch shanks right..?

the BF sale essentially wiped out their inventory

HorseRump coming from Truman is Epic
I hope Truman brings back the Eugene Regrind sole. It’s super dope. Had it on a pair I sold for being wrong size, but loved the sole.
Dale, A flat sole is also better for walking on a flat earth.
Bahahaha they compliment one another 😂
Well if he’s got a new last than is he really shutting shop lol?
Not a chance, just rumors. Why would a company take pre orders of their flagship Java Wax Flesh Boots with an 8 to 12 week shipping time just to close its doors?
A few guys I talked too went down a half size from their 79 last. so I'm kinda on the fence. The 79 last is a pretty perfect fit for me
