From the order book

The same cards, the same lasts.

John Wayne’s order card, his measurements in the bootmaker’s hand, is part of the Paul Bond archive. Paul Newman and Sam Elliott sent signed photographs. Generations of working cowboys simply wore their boots out and came back for another pair.

Choosing

Heritage or Bond Boots?

Both are Paul Bond designs. The difference is where and how they're made, and how soon you'll wear them.
