The color was really nice (exact match to the picture) so I was really impressed based on how much less they were than the Red Wings ($150 USD).Now to why they didn’t work for me. It all came down to me not only having wide feet but also having a high arch. I put the boot on and before I ever even tried to tie them I knew they wouldn’t work. It felt as though my foot was trying to tear through the top of the boot. This is not something that I think had much to do with the boot as it does with my big feet. If you fit into this category you already know how hard it is to find boots that fit well and these may not be right for you.Returning the boots was extremely easy and Thursday paid for them to be shipped back. The only thing I found a little slow about the return was that it took about 2 weeks to be credited back my money. Although it took awhile to get the refund they communicated well during the return period and they are very up front about the time it takes for a refund.Having said that I am still rating the boot as 5 star based on quality and ease of purchase. I think these boots would be a great fit for 95% of people. If you’re thinking of these getting these boots my opinion would be to put them in your cart. Less

detailedReviews 2: content: I can't begin to tell you how conflicted I was about getting these. Was I picking the right boot, the right color, the right size? I was thinking maybe I should have ordered the Diplomat instead, I was worried I wouldn't like the color, and I was worried I ordered them too small. ALL of those worries went right out the window when I got them!First, the reason for 4 stars instead of 5: After I wore these outside (which makes them non-retunable) I noticed that one of the metal eyelets had come out of it's hole and was just hanging on the lace. It turns out, the metal grommet was never finished by crimping it to a washer on the back half. This would have been a big problem, but I just happen to have an assortment of grommets and the crimping tool, so I was able to fix ...

This would have been a big problem, but I just happen to have an assortment of grommets and the crimping tool, so I was able to fix it myself. I understand these boots are handmade, and they're probably cranking these out as fast as possible for the Christmas rush, but this should have be caught by quality control. Now that I have that fixed, I can enjoy what are otherwise, really nice boots!Color: As soon as I opened the box, I instantly loved the Arizona Adobe color. It's an awesome kind of redish-brown. Not too dark, and not too red. The perfect balance. Some dark brown leathers look almost black, and some tan leathers almost look orange to me. This color is rich and masculine. It will pair well with jeans and anything tan or brown.Style: The Captains look really great. My wife says they look like a classic man's boot, and she loves that they aren't super chunky. I totally agree. I'm also glad that I got the standard sole instead of the heavier lug sole. These just look good.Fit: I was seriously worried about the fit. My shoe size can be all over the place depending on the shoe or boot. For instance, my Allen Edmond dress shoes are 9.5 E and they fit great. My Merrell hikers need to be a 10W, or if they're the regular width, a 10.5 fits better. I have sneakers in both 10 and 10.5. So I had absolutely no idea what size to order. I took a guess and ordered the 9.5. I was sure I had made a mistake and they would be too small. But as soon as I put them on, the angels sang! With a medium-thick pair of merino wool socks, they fit absolutely perfect! I can't even describe how great they instantly feel on my feet.Build quality: Other than the aforementioned issue with the eyelet (which I'm sure was an anomaly) these are really nice. After looking at tons of Boots with cheaper leather and glued construction, these Thursday Boots just scream quality. I've seen more expensive boots that aren't this nice. I literally just got these so I can't really speak to long-term durability, but the materials used and the way they're made seem to indicate that they'll hold up quite well.I seriously couldn't be happier with my choice. Just get a pair! Less

detailedReviews 3: content: Got Arizona Adobe Captains. Went with 1/2 size down recommendation and it fit really well. I love the color, it is so dynamic that it looks different under sun, and a different shade indoors. Although, the pair had slight QC issue, Thursday Boots customer service are sending me a new pair free of cost. They have bought me as a customer for many more pairs in near future. Next up are Dukes or Cavs.

title: Arizona Adobe color dynamic, slight QC issue
detailedReviews 4: content: I first ordered them in black but did not like the color and they were too big. I exchanged them for adobe. I like everything about these boots. I bought them for a trip to Europe and only had them 1 day, so I broke them on the trip. No issues! I was especially impressed with the grip. I climbed hills with gravel, walked on ice, slush and sand, NO ISSUES. I'm not a dress shoe kind of guy so I got these to be my go-to boots when I need something dressier than my Vans lol. I love them. Great customer service as well, shipped incredibly fast and the return process was a breeze. Can't say enough! Great company!

detailedReviews 5: content: I usually wear a 10 in shoes/sneakers, and prefer a wide size.After reading other reviews, I ordered size 9 wide, and it fits great.I really like the overall design and the color, and the boot seems well put together. I also really like the ‘chunkiness’ of this sole. The leather smell is really strong, which comes from the tanning materials, and oils. I could smell them Immediately when I would walk into the room where they were stored. Not a bad thing for me, as I love the smell.I am a little concerned about how they will look over time, as the leather grain is a little ‘loose’ in areas, I.e. when the leather is flexed together (like behind the toe area) the grain can form larger ‘bubbles’ instead of a tight crease pattern. It really only becomes a big problem ...

It really only becomes a big problem if one boot has much looser leather than the other (mine are a little dissimilar, but not too bad), as they can look totally different over time.Still, for $200 I think this is a great choice.

detailedReviews 6: content: Got the Capt' in Arizona Adobe color for my husband. He loves the quality, color, and details. Wish there was a store we could actually try the shoes on so we can compare how each size fits. He may have needed a size smaller. Didn't want to go through the trouble of returning them so we'll never know. It fits fine, except around the heel and top of the shoes. Maybe a pair of thick socks will fill the heel and protect his skin from chaffing. Also, wish there was zipper on the side for easy off and on. He wears this pair the least because he's too lazy to loosen the laces. I should have thought of that before. . . Good pair of semi casual boots though!

detailedReviews 7: content: The best value in boots. Comfortable after only a handful of days. Great for guys looking to elevate their casual/work-wear style, and especially at this price, it's a great "first" boot. Pairs great with both chinos and denim for an elevated casual/work-wear outfit. I'll easily recommend the Captains in dark brown or black for men beginning to build an essential wardrobe. Because of my Arizona Adobe's, I'm looking forward to exploring more of Thursday's catalogue. Deserves the hype!!

detailedReviews 8: content: 3rd pair of thursday captains. My first pair lasted about 6 years and over 1000 miles before the outsole started coming apart. This is my first pair of the rugged & resilient/stormking line and I love the more practical rubber lug sole. The tobacco color looks great, and is only getting better with wear. Brutal to break in, but perfectly comfortable afterwards.

title: Third Captains, rugged & resilient, practical sole
detailedReviews 9: content: I've had many pairs of hiking boots over the years, and a big outdoors person. Now that I am in my mid-30's it is getting difficult to dress my' age' while still looking stylish. Enter quality Heritage-style boots from Thursday!The lug-sole Captain gives me what I love in the all-terrain aspect of footwear, but looks amazing with jeans or chinos. Break-in has been quick and easy. They are already so comfortable and incredibly well crafted.If you're on the fence about getting a pair of Thursdays, I would say go for it! Size a half size down from your usual sneaker size (for captains, at least) and enjoy! I already have a pair of Diplomats coming in the mail. Thanks Thursday!

title: Heritage-style Captains, great for outdoors and style
detailedReviews 10: content: Thursday Boot Company’s boots strike that perfect balance between rugged durability and refined style. I purchased two pairs of the Captains, one with their regular sole and another with the Storm King sole. You can feel the craftsmanship, full-grain leather, sturdy construction, and clean, timeless design. They’re the kind of boots that can handle a full day’s grind and still look sharp at dinner. Reliable, versatile, and built to last, just like a good pair of boots should be. I’ll definitely be purchasing more pairs in the future.
