If you’ve been into boots for a while, I’m sure you’ve also started to dabble in the world of sick denim fades.
Or maybe you started with a love of raw denim and moved on to boots?
In either case, once you start down the rabbit-hole, pairing the best boots with the best denim is inevitable.
I started with boots. And after trying several fantastic denim brands, I think I’m a denim guy now, too.
These are my favorite jeans to pair with high quality Goodyear welted boots.

    Currently breaking in a pair of IH 777 19 oz LHTs. I recommend wearing polyester/spandex underwear during break-in of Iron Heart jeans. If you wear cotton underwear, in 2-3 days you will most likely have 2 read lines on your butt from the stitching (speaking from experience). Swapping underwear was a game changer. Props to the guys who are able to break in 21-25 oz denim....Not sure I could do it after my experience so far.

    Totally agree, relaxed tapered or even straight tapered(which shouldnt be a thing at all but it is) , are the way to go. They still follow your leg line nicely but they have extra room. Specially if you have strong legs, they do compliment your physique the right way rathen than looking like a sausage. I do understand that some guys need to wear slim jeans cause the way have very thin legs, but nobody ahould ever wear skinny. You might think you look good, but you dont.

    Have you tried Origen Jeans. This year for Christmas I got two pairs of their indigo factory jeans. They are with out a question the most comfortable jeans I own. For reference until I got these one I was a 501 man. Both in black and in Indigo. The break in was like three washings. Origin make two lines of jeans the afore mentioned factory jean and the Delta Jean. I don’t own the delta jean which is more of a fitter or fighter cut. That is not me. At 205 pounds and six foot tall. I find the jeans have a beautiful break where they contact my boots or shoes. I have heard that origin recently started making a boot cut in the lighter Delta jeans. Have yet to see a review of the look. No I am not paid in any way for my comments by Origen however I do,like the fit and comfort of their jeans. As far as foot wear goes I am a Clark Fan (their desert boot) and a real fan of the Red Backs from Down Under. At the moment I am reading the reviews on the Truman Boots Company. Really Thinking their Black Tea Core boot or shoe. Value any feed back on this. 😊😊😊😊😊

    Thank you! Levi’s in a dark wash in a 502, 511, or 512 look great with a sport coat. Why are people paying 400.00 for a pair of jeans they say are dressier? 511 jeans last me 6 or 7 years for 60 bucks. I don’t get paying 400 for Japanese denim … any thoughts? I have the money to buy them but I don’t see the value in doing it. Thank you.

    While I do agree buying straight leg cut jeans for men over 30 the only thing is every time I buy Levi's 501's I take them to my seamstress to get them tapered. C'mon guys. You have to show off those beautiful boots! It irks me a little bit when I see guys with quality boots half covered by a wide leg opening jeans. And Levi's jeans are pretty cheap too.
