Hi there! Firstly, I must compliment you on an outstanding page, full of great information and stunning boots. I was wondering if with your extensive knowledge, you could I fact help me source a pair of my own engineer boots? Essentially, with a number of brands and makes, I’m a bit in the dark with where to start.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Dicky

Much appreciated, Dicky!
This is a very common question that I receive on a regular basis. Here's a list of boots that are on my radar and meet my $1,000 price threshold for what I consider to be reasonably acceptable for boots.
John Lofgren ($975): 1950s style
Attractions Co. ($795): Late-1940s to mid-1950s style
Mister Freedom ($949): 1930s to early-1940s style

Clinch with Classic Narrow Last (approx. $1,000): 1940s style

Red Wing 2966 ($400): Classic profile

Dapper's Lot 1142 ($820): 1940s style
You really can't go wrong with any of these boots. I hope this helps.
Best regards,
John
