Finding a versatile, fashionable, and functional boot to dress up or dress down is no easy task. Finding one that is comfortable as well as durable is even harder to find. The Thursday Boot Company’s Natural President will boost any man’s style from good to great. The company’s passion for the “everyday man’s” style, quality materials and handmade boots comes through in every stride. Lace up men, fall is here.

Natural President Review Breakdown

Style:

Looking through the Thursday Boot’s website, I felt like I finally found the style of boot I have been looking for. The Chukka style of boot has its place, but I have personally grown tired of this style of boot. The Chukka looks great in jeans but when trying to dress them up, they fall short.

The Natural President is a versatile boot that looks great dressed up or dressed down. For a casual look, I found they looked best in a straight legged, dark denim jean. Recently at a wedding, I dressed them up in a navy suit. They were a great companion to my tapered suit pant. I got many compliments!

I am looking forward to “wearing in” these boots in a bit. Judging on the color and quality of leather, when these boots wear in, they will be a whole new boot. They are a little too “polished” for my liking at the moment…but that is only because they are brand new. Having a boot looking like it has been places is a great look for fall when paired with simple flannel and denim.

These boots have honestly up’d my style game across the board. Fall is my favorite season for men’s fashion. I tend to style myself from the ground up and wearing the Natural President was no exception. These boots were the perfect fall inspiration I needed to transition into a new season.

Design:

The overall construction of the boot is high quality. The Natural President is made with Goodyear Welt Construction. Goodyear Welt Construction creates a virtually waterproof seal for the boot. This type of construction is the “Gold Standard” for boots and less than 1% of men’s boots use this. The boot is completely resoleable, which means I could potentially wear these boots for years to come. The Cork Bed Midsole acts as memory foam and forms to your feet as you continue to wear.

The boot is fully lined with a smooth glove-leather lining. This is the key difference for me. This lining provides comfort without overheating. Many boots I have worn in the past often make my feet too hot which breaks down the interior quicker.

Comfort:

I was so excited to jump in my new Thursday Boots  and wear them every day. However, I had to wait on the weather to cool before I wore them. These were the last things I wanted on my feet in the heat of August.  They are, however,  a perfect fall/winter boot. When the temperatures dropped, I was excited to pull these boots on.

I had every intention of breaking in these boots little by little. However, I ended up wearing them for a whole day and night before they were fully broken in. Unfortunately, I did have feet pain the next day. They are a pretty heavy duty boot so I would recommend breaking them a little at a time. Good boots can take good time to break in so take it easy and break them in slowly. These boots are worth the time.

 Value:

The President Boots come in at $199. For a high quality, handmade, and durable boot this is a fair price. Off the bat, I would say spend the money and get a boot that will up your style game. These boots were tested for a month and held up nicely. I am interested to see how they hold up within a year. 

Since this is a new company, I did some digging and the positive results were overwhelming. I haven’t really “rooted” for a new company in a while, but I am rooting for these guys. Behind their quality boots is a passion for what they are doing. I would not be surprised if we all start to see Thursday Boots on shelves everywhere. I am excited to see where this company goes!

    I got a pair when they first came out on Kickstarter. They have been a great investment and a good add to my wardrobe. They are my go-to boots.

    Bought two pairs of these – have gotten prettier and more comfortable with time. Would absolutely recommend to a friend.

    I bought 3 pairs from the launch, and I haven’t looked for another boot company since. I now own 5 pairs and wear them daily. The versatility is beyond any other footwear that I’ve ever owned. I’m amazed at the superior quality compared to previous boots that I’ve owned before.

    STOP! DO NOT BUY!

    This used to be a fantastic company. I made a couple of purchases online. Alas, it has gone down the drain. Long processing time, slow response from customer service, and even slower shipping – I guess because shipping is free.

    We supported them when they were growing and we were treated like kings. Now that they have all grown up, we are treated like trash.

    Never again.

      I bought a pair of $200.00 boots two weeks ago and wore them once. The stitching came apart the first time I wore them and their customer service is horrible. Stay away !!!

      Hey big John I just got a pair from amazon and one of the boots had a small ring on it from the natural leather I suppose I am very picky (yes it’s a curse) and they sent me a pair no charge, boots are beatiful and fit like a glove went a half size down. I had a great experience with the company and love the customer service.

    I have quite a few pairs of shoes/boots from Thursday Boots (1 President in brown, 2 Executives (1 black and 1 mahogany), 1 Aviator in chestnut, and 1 Scout in cognac suede) and I have to say that I am overall very, very pleased with all of them. Please understand I am not saying that these shoes/boots are perfect, they are not but for the price, comfort of wear, and overall value I would rate them a 9.5 out of 10. The few minor problems that I have had are one of the Executives is a little tight and the Scout is a little big (nothing that makes them unwearable) and a few very, very minor blemishes but nothing that deters from the overall outstanding product that they are offering. Good luck and keep it up!
