Lucchese Ropers are CLASSIC! | Quick Impression at Saratoga Saddlery

[@sailingneil]

One day I might have the luck to go boot shopping with JC. Great to see Jim's passion, I can imagine finding boots in his size is a problem.

[@JeremiahCraig]

that would be awesome!!

[@jimcollins9999]

Hey Neil, I'm sure either of us would enjoy boot shopping with you buddy! Yes finding my size is a problem for sure!😁

[@DrJake108]

Great video Jeremiah - its funny I actually own both of those ropers. I have the Kennedy ropers (calf) in black and the Majestic Ropers (goat) in black cherry. The calf are $200 more and much softer but I think I like the firmness of the goat. Over time I like the way the shaft of the goat hold up. Thanks again

[@JeremiahCraig]

They age great! Thanks so much for watching Jeffery!

[@mariogiardinazzo8381]

I own a pair of the sunset mad dog goat ropers and yes I used it to transition from heritage style boots to cowboy boots. Did the trick I absolutely love them and now own 4 pairs of western boots. Great job Jeremiah!!!

[@waynenoll1967]

My ropers arrived today…and are too small…

[@bdebus1]

I have a pair of the Lucchese Tanners in goat and they're the most comfortable boots I own. Incredibly light and great for being on my feet all day long.

[@mtkreger]

I have a pair of Lucchese Exotic and a pair of Tony Lama Ropers. I prefer the shorter heel. They really do go well with almost everything.

[@JeremiahCraig]

I agree!

[@boerenkool]

Not only are those ropers nice, but those harness boots in the background of the outro look pretty amazing too.

[@JeremiahCraig]

I forgot to take them down when I did the song haha! Those are Frye Veronica boots my wife and I found at Savers. Video coming soon!

[@Oculus729]

Your video is timely and directly on point. We have a Lucchese store in Denver. I will be visiting soon for the Goat Ropers.

[@JeremiahCraig]

Sweet! Thanks for watching

[@Mmaulin12]

Great seeing you on the channel, Jim!

[@jimcollins9999]

Thanks buddy, had to get that screen test & 5 minutes of fame, before I head to Hollywood. ✌

[@WesternWearEnthusiast]

Great video!! Nice to see Jim doing a quick impressions video with you Jeremiah. The ropers looked like a good in both hides. Well done.👍

[@JeremiahCraig]

Thanks Carol! Hope to check out some boot stores in your neck of the woods someday too!

[@WesternWearEnthusiast]

@@JeremiahCraig Awesome!! Looking forward to it!!

[@jimcollins9999]

Thanks Carol. 👍

[@MoMan.88]

I was never a fan of Ropers either until I decided to try on a pair for my driving boots and I loved them so I bought them!!

[@JeremiahCraig]

many don't have the same great look as other cowboy boots but damn they are comfy!

[@clint2439]

My everyday boot! Love Lucchese ropers!

[@JeremiahCraig]

That's what I'm talking about!

[@mitchellellsworth]

Oh man when were you there I was walking around Sunday in Saratoga. They have an awesome selection and so much neat stuff other than boots

[@JeremiahCraig]

Missed ya. I was there a couple weeks ago. I'll have to catch ya another time through!

[@LG-mj5ns]

I just bought the Buffalo Calf roper in Black Cherry. They're like creamy butter.

[@jimcollins9999]

Looking to do another one with you, in the coming months Jeremiah! 👍

[@helenjourde9033]

Ropers will always be my first choice in a new pair of boots simply for the comfort of the design. No heels for this old gal! I prefer Justins, but if I had the money, I would definitely give Lucceses a try. Thanks for all your reviews.

[@JeremiahCraig]

That lower heel can make a huge difference! Thanks for watching Helen!

[@bhud1972]

The most comfortable pair of boots you’ll ever wear. I have a pair of handmade goatskin Lucchese ropers that are about 15 years old. I recently had them resoled and I wear them all the time. I also have a pair of Luccehse full quill ostrich cowboy boots. Nowhere near as comfortable and I rarely wear them. These boots are the BEST!

[@saxman7131]

I wear 15’s as well. Beautiful boots.

[@jimcollins9999]

Hey Scott, good to see another size 15 guy around. What types or styles do you prefer? Message me sometime, I have a few pairs of boots that you may like. 👍

[@johnlyon8403]

I have a pair of Lucchese Classic L3515 calfskin ropers that I’ve had for 10 or 11 years. Mine have a French toe, which I really dig. They are really comfortable boots, and I wore them all the time. Until I bought my first pair of Chisos. Still love my ropers tho!

[@JeremiahCraig]

Love the french toe!

[@saratogasaddlery]

The Lucchese Cowboy boots last forever! Thats why we love them so much!

[@yellowsnout]

Just grabbed some Leadville Ropers and versatile is right. Dress up or down they look great. Super light and they seem to be super high quality (time will tell). Great review!

[@BirdDogey1]

Two pair of Lucchese Ropers. Very comfortable and nice looking.

[@JeremiahCraig]

No doubt! Thanks Ken!

[@mrmaxcarter2306]

I'm not far from there. I'll have to check in

[@JeremiahCraig]

For real! Great store

[@alwentzel4776]

Remind me what is the purpose of the roper style boot I can't remember. I have and had roper boots. They are a good boot for walking. I look forward to your videos. Be blessed!

[@JeremiahCraig]

James is on point! Thanks!

[@tweekuncut41]

I was surprised to hear the calf skin is more expensive than the goat! I have a pair of 1883s in calf skin that I bought used on eBay and they are super supple. Less than $50 in great shape. I've searched for goat or ostrich since I've heard they are even more comfortable and they seem to hold a higher value.

[@JeremiahCraig]

Technically it was a buffalo calf I think which makes it a bit more expensive. Great find on the slightly used pair! Congrats! Awesome find

[@joshuapool5048]

I mean a calf is a young cow. So think of it as a child's skin. Would be more flexible, less worn out etc because of its age...... I swear I'm not a serial killer 😅

[@jaywashington2196]

I love the ropers I have I’ll use them for casual boots

[@JeremiahCraig]

Love it! They are so versatile

[@cedrickization8159]

"...Not really my type roper's boots! Hi Jeremiah, will you do a video about the love of boots the love interest in boots that fascinates us?? Good video Jeremiah!!"

[@blitzkrieg6093]

Those are pretty cool. I just got a pair of Tecovas goat ropers. I'm in the process of breaking them in. I would be Interested in trying out the lucchese goat skin ropers. 👍

[@vance3973]

Ropers are definetly a classic boot but I personally prefer wearing my abilenes with a r toe and 1.5 inch heel. although I like having a short heel for walking all day I do prefer the square toe over the roper toe.

[@JeremiahCraig]

I get it! Good call. Thanks for watching

[@oldman975]

Like you guest I’m not a roper fan,but those might change my mind. They are fantastic looking. By the way,is there big truck parking near there?

[@JeremiahCraig]

No big truck parking unfortunately. The store is right on a busy main town road

[@kodokushiHill]

I own the Lucchese Kennedy Black Bison Roper. Love em to death

[@brandongregg4287]

I guess your body really liked these Ropers... You had some serious diamond cutters pointing thru that shirt!

[@michaelgraves5320]

I'm looking for a square toe boot with a subtle heel, looking for a little more style than this roper. I'm a 12D but flat footed I'd appreciate any recommendations please 🙏

[@JeremiahCraig]

Anderson Bean has a bunch of square toes with subtle heels. Here's one I looked at in Wyoming: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWS8hImplq6akK8 Also JW Boot Company can special order anything you want. Here's a video I did on their square toe: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r2KyiYNjnqdsp6s

[@abelhernandez2591]

Made in El Paso Texas 915

[@JeremiahCraig]

You know it!

[@chuckrussell419]

Why don’t you review Anderson Bean boots?

[@JeremiahCraig]

Here's two AB videos kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWS8hImplq6akK8 kzbin.info/www/bejne/jHy8h4J-h7uXqqs

[@jimmyjohnjuan]

Any ideas of 3e and 4e width shoes? Definitely prefer 4e.

[@JeremiahCraig]

Boulet has EEE but they fit like a EE. You can also order Black Jack boots from TimsBoots.com and they have EEE options

[@iuaislamf]

Did ya leave empty handed?🤔

[@JeremiahCraig]

I got two videos visiting Saratoga saddlery! The next one will go up next week. I don't think I've ever purchased boots when I do videos on them in store. I visit stores and do videos to learn more about different styles and help these small stores sell boots since they need the most help. It's not unordinary for them to sell out of styles after I post videos!

[@jimcollins9999]

I just may go back & buy the pair I tried on. It's a nice boot with the narrower rounded toe. 👍
