Why Taft Dragon Boots Will Change Your Life
Taft continues to create well thought out and functional footwear for its customers. They added some unique and thoughtful upgrades to the Dragon Boot, now calling them the Dragon Boot 2.0. You’ll be able to find the right Dragon Boot for yourself from the 5 colorways that are currently available. I own the Ox Blood and Forest colorway from this drop.
What I like most about this boot is that Taft added heavy texture to the Stead Wax Commander leather. I’m a huge fan of adding textured elements to my outfits through the different pieces I wear. Also, these boots are waterproof, so there is no need to worry if you step in a puddle of water.
Here’s are some of my thoughts on the Dragon Boot after a couple wears:
Fit — Fits true to size.
Construction — I listed some construction details below for your reference:
extremely well made.

Waxed Commander Suede from C.F. Stead

Comfort — These boots are pretty comfortable and I had no issues wearing them for an extended period of time.
Style — The Forest colorway adds a subtle pop of color to any outfit. In this look, the Dragon Boot paired very well with the earth tones.
Overall, Taft’s Dragon Boot offers a break from the norm with its heavy texture upper. The assortment of colors available are sure to add a pop to you boot collection. This boot can take on the task of heavy wear and rainy days. I guess you can call it a life saver ;)

Why Taft Monk Strap Shoes are the Best Things Since Sliced Bread
There's many options for monk strap shoes out there. You have the monk strap, double monk strap, triple monk strap, monk strap boots, and the list goes on. It can be difficult trying to figure out which pair to go with. The right pair will be the one that is comfortable, durable, and classic. Taft’s Prince shoe fits the bill. I’ve had the opportunity to wear the Prince shoe for a few weeks and I am going to share my thoughts on the shoe as well as the wear experience.

Comfort — I wore these shoes all day walking through New York with no stress or irritation to my feet. The New York streets aren’t forgiving and the Prince shoe held up to the task.
Style —The crisscrossing straps is a fresh take on monk strap shoes that are on the market. I've paired these shoes with dapper, casual, and street style looks because of the versatility of its unique strap.
Taft’s fresh take on the monk strap shoe creates a bold style that will surly turn heads and have a lot of people asking you where you got your shoes from.
Overall, the versatility of the shoe allows you to wear it in a number of scenarios without feeling out of place. It’s construction is built to last right out of the box and for years to come.

I want to be crowned King of The North just like John Snow was in the Game of Thrones. Typically, you’ll see guys rocking the black or brown leather Moto Jackets, but I’m adding a twist this year. Why not add some color to your life and stand out? This royal blue leather Moto Jacket adds the right amount of flavor to your look without being too loud. When the jacket is paired with a nice wool sweater, distressed denim, and a pair of Jodhpur Boots, they’ll have no choice but to crown you king!
I hope that you liked my advice for opting to a pop of color using leather jackets. Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with the traditional black or brown leather jacket, but you can elevate your look with different color options. Let me know what you think about this look! I’d love to hear any opinions that you have in the comment section. I’m always down for a good convo.
Until next time!
