so we got the word that there's a 125th anniversary edition boot from lucchese with a retail price of $12,500. a dear friend once asked me about some "lu-cheese" boots. oh noooo you din't! it's "lu-kay-zee" and they are proud of their 125 years of hand-making boots right here in the US of A, el paso to be exact.
the limited-edition boot will be made with only the finest American Belly Alligator available, utilizing their matador construction with covered side-seams and fully hand-painted quarters. hand-tooled scrolls, lucchese logos and stars will adorn the tops of each boot. with hand-laced scallops, the torero pull-straps will be overlaid in Alligator and only our premier Grimini calfskin linings will be used on the inside of each pair. only 125 pairs will be made, and each are numbered and hand signed.
want to see how their boots are made? did you know more than 250 people touch each boot. check out their making of a legend video, while it's a long one, it's far less time consuming than the 14-15 days it takes to build each pair.
surely, the "man in black" would have had a pair. now, you can too. while you can certainly check lucchese's site for styles, and more deets, zappos.com has a great selection, and will help you out with your pronunciation so you can ask for them by name.
