I just bought the newest release of the Tukano v2 in tan wicket and Craig Latigo earlier today from their recent earth day collection and now you release this video!! What fortunate timing!! Your videos are what inspired me to buy this brand and many others like Truman and Parkhurst

I’m so impressed with Bordon. I’ve been salivating over their website for a while. For boots similarly priced to Red Wing they’re beautiful to look at and seem to be much more refined than Red Wing. I think they could be my new most desired boot company.

Was just thinking the same thing. Compared to the iron ranger for example, this has veg tan leather midsole and a leather shank. Where the iron ranger use thin synthetic midsole

Happy to support Bordon Columbia! Ordered the black Tukano on May 9. Now Teik, how is it you have yours already you lucky guy😊. Happy to see this video, and hope the W&C black looks as good as your make. Good video!

Glad u received this early pair to share with everyone. Looks like a solid upgrade! Bordon moving into premium leathers is right in line with my interests. Can't wait for mine. Recommend you add the Wanes to your list for a future look. Also a wonderful boot.

A beautifully made boot! I too have come to love the slightly wider toe box. I’m a big fan of the Floyd last from Grant Stone. How does the fit compare to Bordon?

Width wise about the same, the Floyd probably has more volume above the toes.

How do we know they are actually paying their artisans a fair wage? You mention the owner stitching boots and difficulty finding skilled crafts people and I can't help but be suspicious of a $350 boot from a lower average wage country despite the high quality and materials. I think Bordon could win over a lot of buyers by showing wage transparency. That is my only hang up from sending $350 to Bordon vs a US boot company.
