Just wondering if anyone has tried both? I used to ride in Heritage. Then went custom, but they are my every day boots (if I’m gonna spend $1k on something I’m going to actually use them, and they are also dark brown) so I need something to show in. Before I go back to Heritage just wondering if anyone had insight on the new Palisade?
I have a pair of Palisades that I only use for showing. The leather feels thinner and less durable than my Heritage boots, but on the plus side they fit right out of the box. I have to stretch the Heritage boot over a week or so. I think the Palisades look a little nicer, more sleek if that makes sense. I am not crazy about the logo, but it’s relatively small.
I like both models much better than the Kinsley. My Kinsley boots stretched out in a couple of months and got baggy around the ankles. I wish Ariat boots lasted longer, the footbeds are so comfortable for me.
