Hello all,
When asked, 'who makes a quality custom boot?' almost everyone replies back, "oh, Missouri Boot and Shoe Co. is the place to go!' Well, is there anyone else or does Robert at Missouri Boot and Shoe hold the monopoly on this particular craft globally?
Reason being, for the past four-five months - the ONLY progress that I have made is sharing a few measurements. When I actually get an occasional reply back from him, he never really answers all of my questions and I always get, 'need more measurements, need more measurements, need more measurements.' Even when I have supplied him 'measurements.' This whole process could be done in days - not months. I certainly realize folks get busy (I work six sometimes seven days a week, myself), but if he keeps forgetting misc. things, do I really want him to manufacture a pair of boots? I don't know if I'm going to keep trying anymore. I, or anyone, being a 'customer' shouldn't have to keep chasing after a business to take their money.
With that being said, is there anyone - ANYONE - that can custom make a boot other than Missouri Boot and Shoe Co....?
Thank you for any info!
