I have three pairs of Lennons. One pair I bought from them, the trad work boots, then I was so impressed with them I then found a brand new pair of their Ammo Boots on the bay and then a pair of the Tug'o'war boots.
The trad work boots and the ammo boots have vibram commando soles while the tug'o'wars have a triple leather sole. They also came with an iron horshoe on the heels! I had them replaced with rubber by the local cobbler as I have wood floors!
The trad work boots and the ammo boots are the most comfortable. I have diabetes and the ammo boots are the only boot/shoe I can stand round in all day! The tug'o'war boots are very heavy in the sole.
The ammo boots are in a grained black leather. The guy I bought them from on the bay had them made to order with that leather. The trads have a softer, greasy leather and the tugs are a polished leather.
Any one pair of the boots will see me out and possibly my son too!
They are real boots made in the old fashioned way and do need breaking in. They were surprisingly comfy out of the box but are getting better all the time.
The ammo boots aren't on their web site but they do make them. Also it doesn't say on the site but they will make any of their boots in various leathers and with higher or lower tops as you wish. Every boot is made to order so it isn't a problem for them. Fancier leathers will cost a little more of course. I'm told they will even line the boots with soft leather if you want but I'm happy with them as they came. I found out after ordering my first pair that they will send out a swatch of available leathers if you ask! Libby at Lennon's will do her best to get you what you want.
