I agree with sockpuppy. I have Testoni shoes with Blake/McKay stitching. These appear to be a great value with shoe trees included and I have doubled down. A maker like Edward Green charges the equivalent of about $175 just for a pair of trees and I personally wouldn't necessarily be comfortable trudging through the slush in a $1,500 pair of EG boots.

I like how there are only side pictures on the images in massdrop of the shoe, smh.

Stan95Hey Stan95 - I'll check in with Massdrop and see if they're able to take some front-on photos. In the meantime, while I wish I could give you the front-on profile off the brown boot, here's a photo of the black boot to give a sense. And you can see more at out website: https://shopfounders.com/product-category/mens/ Thanks!

Do you think I can walk safely on a slippery road during a snowy weather with these boots?

ductuanlHey - I would say just as safely as in any other boot! We chose Vibram for just that reason - it's the rubber sole maker that provides soles for the best hiking / bad weather boots like Danner, Lowe and Vasque. And all that aside, I wear them all winter here in New York.

itzyahotboiNot to be too much of a pedant, but goodyear isn't the only way to make a high quality shoe, despite what people will say on sites like Reddit and Styleforum. Maybe you're aware of this, but I'm adding it for anyone who runs around thinking they need to only buy goodyear shoes now that Reddit told them to do so. Some excellent shoes use blake rapid, in many cases much better than your average goodyear welted shoes. Not that there's anything wrong with goodyear either.
It's time to stop looking at shoe constructions as a sequence of boss battles in a side scrolling video game.
