Yuketen Boots

[John Lever]

As usual I am probably late to the party having just discovered Yuketen boots....
Some look very interesting and unusual, but the prices !!
1500 GBP for a pair of boots !
Thoughts ?

I don't know these boots but is it more shocking than a jacket at the same price?

In my experience jackets have always cost more than boots.

£1500 does sound expensive for a pair of Yuketens, I thought they were in 3 to 400 range, but I'll admit I haven't looked recently.
Ah just noticed your last post and that they're made of cordovan, that would explain the price.

Nice boots ….. Not sure that I’d drop that kind of cash for a pair but to each their own . Have you read any reviews on them or watched any reviews on them on You Tube ?
I’m just wondering what makes them worth the price .

Saw them on Marrkt and liked the design. Googled them...
I know nothing about them other than they are Japanese.
I would never spend 1500gbp on boots

For that price I would prefer John Lobb's on my plates of meat.
