Their new collection of Vanguard boots in varied leathers and colorways uses\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.heddels.com\/2017\/09\/horween-leather-profile-interview-and-product-overview\/\"><strong>Horween<\/strong><\/a> leather and\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.heddels.com\/2015\/01\/rubber-met-road-history-vibram-soles\/\">Vibram<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>soles. So, you know, the good stuff. A particular standout in this collection is the <a href=\"https:\/\/thursdayboots.com\/products\/mens-vanguard-boot-waxed-cacao\">Waxed Cacao Vanguard Boo<\/a>t. This boot\u2014and all the USA-made Vanguards\u2014are a boot lover&#8217;s dream. Mixed and matched details add up to a hard-wearing work boot with a sophisticated twist. A Cuban heel and captoe provide the class and the probably impenetrable waxed flesh leather from Horween bring the tough-guy energy that any good boot needs.\u00a0The badass upper is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.heddels.com\/2014\/04\/know-welts-common-boot-welts\/\">Goodyear welted<\/a> to a Vibram sole that combines two favorite styles of outsole, a Dainite heel as well as a lugged commando sole. A traditional corkbed midsole combines with an antimicrobial\u00a0Poron component for shock absorption and odor control.<\/p>\n<p>The Vanguard is the perfect distillation of Thursday&#8217;s boot-making goals, to painstakingly create a product that walks the line between craft and price.<\/p>\n<p>Available for $265 at <a href=\"https:\/\/thursdayboots.com\/products\/mens-vanguard-boot-waxed-cacao\">Thursday Boots<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever since their inception\/successful Kickstarter campaign, startup boot brand\u00a0Thursday Boots\u00a0has been building a solid collection of boots.
