Detailed Review
Comfort: One of the standout features of the Roper Mens Skull Lug Boot is its impressive comfort level. The padded insole provides cushioning for sustained wear, making it ideal for long days on your feet or casual outings. Users have noted that while the initial fit may feel snug, the leather conforms well to your foot over time.
Style: If you are searching for boots that can elevate your wardrobe, these boots are a great addition. The combination of the bandit toe and embossed heel makes them a versatile pairing for jeans, slacks, or even shorts during warmer months. They strike a balance between ruggedness and fashion-forward styling.
Durability: Made from high-quality leather, these boots are built to last. The non-marking outsole prevents scuffing on delicate surfaces, which sets them apart from many other models on the market. Regular maintenance, such as conditioning the leather, will keep them looking new longer.
Fit: Sizing can be tricky as they are offered primarily in standard width. It’s advisable to try them on if possible or consult the sizing chart to ensure you select the right fit. Customers have reported that once broken in, the fit becomes more comfortable.

great boots, I've got the discounted 11.5 size @ a very good price, I love them !!!
Just recieved my boots today and all I could say is they're nice. Orginally ordered them as a work boot but now I am second guessing if I should use them for that purpose. They are made in Mexico. Good ol' smell of leather. However I want to point out that the rubber oustole is stitched into the leather, it's not glued on only. Otherwise, boot is of good quality.Update: leather scrathes to easilyLast update: the boots are inferior quality. My left boot got stuck. I couldn't get it out. As funny as this may sound but the lining inside got loose and didn't let my heel slip out. I had to go buy a blade to cut my foot loose. This has never happened to me. Don't buy these boots! I will post a picture of what happened! I even took video of the whole ordeal.
Boots look great and appear to be made well. Too bad they didn't make a 10.75D
Awesome boot looks great, got a lot of compliments even when they were roughed up after two years. Wore them all the time everything held up good until the left boots neck leather gave way and I couldn’t get my foot out so I had to cut the neck to get out of it. I’m definitely getting another pair, I did everything in these boots. Extremely comfortable and just look good, haven’t found a boot yet that I like better.
I really wanted to give this boot 5 stars. I had to order the 11ee bc the 11 I can barley get my foot in and out. The left boot is bigger than the right. I own plenty of cowboy boots from different brands and never had this problem. After some insoles and thick socks it’s manageable but the sizing and build is a little off. Other than that the style is great. Very tough and rugged. It’s a shame they don’t fit true to size
One of the most comfortable pair of boots I have owned. My only complaint is the lug sole doesn't hold up as long as they should but that can be replaced. I will be purchasing Roper brand boots again.
Listen say what you say about roper usa but, this pair of boots. Chefs kiss. I like the quality and the built. They are true leather and they are durable. I mean durable. I went to and back from a muddy pit dance floor and well, I made it out alive with them on. Definitely worth the price. In my opinion of course.
Beautiful boot, the leather quality looks good,Also the sewing looks good only one problem, the inner structure of the boot in the inner soles under the foot a little uncomfortable, the sole is too hard and hurts my bow foot
