For Sale: Thorogood for Epaulet "Crazy Horse" No. 685 Boots
Price: $75 shipped to USA locations (these retail for ~$245 new)
Size: 11D
Fit: These fit .5 size large, so size down .5 from your true size
Condition: Excellent -- worn just a few times.
More info: Goodyear welted, Made in USA.
Introduced in the 1950’s, Thorogood’s No. 685 Boot was billed as the Job-Fitted Work Shoe for Farm Wear. Epaulet is proud to re-introduce this classic boot as an exclusive collaborative style! Using the original styling, we’ve updated the details with a few modern twists and created a rugged, handsome, long-lasting, and affordable piece of true Americana. Outside of its great history and lineage, we’re confident that this boot delivers more value than all of the similar products at this price point. Each piece is meticulously crafted in Wisconsin and feature a rugged “Crazy Horse” leather upper, and Goodyear-welted cork-filled Neoprene sole. This boot will age beautifully over time and last for years. Its beautiful cowhide exterior will develop will only get better the more you wear it.
This version of our custom Thorogood for Epaulet No. 685 boot is crafted from the whimsically named cowhide “Crazy Horse”. Like chromexcel, “Crazy Horse” is a pull up leather, which is to say that it ages and wears beautifully, gaining incredible character over time. The leather will temporarily lighten in color with everyday walking, as your movement displaces oils, greases, and/or waxes. This dramatic, yet subtle effect is ensured by the special tannage process each “Crazy Horse” hide undergoes; oil is applied under pressure and at high temperature, which allows for a deeper impregnation of oil into the leather and a rugged finish. The resultant material is immediately full of character and color variegation, without looking artificially distressed; it’s easy to maintain, water resistant, and suitable for industrial applications.
