Fairfax

I was always looking for a traditional man’s boot a boot a man from the 30’s
Or 40’s would be familiar with.
Your boot fits that bill. The pig skin lining is a added plus for comfort. I will always chose quality over Chinese crap.

I have owned Wilcox boots since 2017. 2 x Shiloh rust brown (one is now a work pair and a newer not as beat up pair) and 1 x Fairfax Black. These are the most comfortable boots I have ever worn. Not only do they feel good, they also look great. As they break in, they seem to stretch a bit making it easier for thicker socks if you are working or hiking outside. I recently had my black Fairfax resoled and shined up, and they look like new.
I also just bought my son a pair of Century's for Christmas so he has a nice pair for college. - so far so good!
The only item that is annoying is some of the quick lace hooks have broken from wear and tear, which either can be repaired or you can slip the laces through the hole..no biggie.
Do yourself and your feet a favor and buy a pair, you will not be disappointed.

Very comfortable and great Quality.

I bought these a few years ago and use them hard. (Harder than I should've to be honest. Hunting, hiking, motorcycle, farm.) They look even better with time. I've had them re-soled once,(hunting trip in hard/wet conditions ripped off the heel.) Still love them whether polished or not.
Only gripe is the back/forth shipping took a while and the insert that came w/ them was virtually useless, just a piece of fabric almost.
(I got my own inserts,) and that was all they needed.
I've considered buying a 2nd pair but don't want to spend the dough yet.
I've had other friends purchase, and I'm glad we all have.
Most of the time they're not polished.

These boots are super comfortable with minimal break in period if you do it right. I personally put on thicker socks and wore them around the house for 30 minutes of walking, and wearing them 2 times and that’s all it took. I have two pairs of Fairfax boots, one in black and one in rust. I also have a pair of rust Shiloh boots and they are all very well made, comfortable look great and will last you for years to come. Without sounding like I work for Wilcox, buy them!! (I don’t work for or have any affiliation with Wilcox.)

I forgot to mention, I have a pair of brown Kerns on the way!

For the last 6 years I've worn these around the streets of urban and suburban Minneapolis, MN mostly in the winter months for work & play. They've been quite comfortable and stylish. (Although the pull loops on the black pair interfere with the way my jeans or slacks hang!). Over the past year I was wearing them less frequently as walking with hard soles on concrete and asphalt had become a bit painful for my knees and heels. Rather than give up on them, I chose to replace the inner soles with some that had more cushion and thickness to them. Bam! What a difference! They are much more comfortable. Then, about two weeks ago, I took a week's vacation to Northeastern Minnesota and wore these boots every day. Hiking or bumming around the campsite on the edge of the wilderness I have never owned boots that perform as wonderfully as these. So very comfortable! Up and down hills and over rocks the tread and the ankle support were tremendous. Mind you this state is in a serious drought right now so I could not test them in mud or rain on this trip but I think the past experience with snow is sufficient. These are terrific boots. They're great around town and absolutely stellar when taken off road. I'm looking forward to using them more off road in the future. I think the tread has a few more years left on them. Thanks Wilcox for some fabulous footwear!

A high quality bolt boot. Very comfortable and looks good too. Started as a Sunday boot but soon became the ones I choose thru the week. 2nd pair I’ve had and am not disappointed in any way. There service department it top notch.

I liked the toe cap on the Fairfax so took a chance. Wore daily to work office/field. 90/10. Wear on motorcycle. Re-soled heal still going strong. Very Comfortable, right out of the box. And I still have all the lacing hooks. Great value and quality.

These boots are awesome. First, they are crafted in fine materials and made with quality construction. They are made to take a beating and last. The insoles are comfortable and easy to wear all day. Plus since they are real leather, they clean up nicely and you can wear them out at night. The size and fit is great. I wear a size 11 in Converse Chuck Taylor’s, and found that an 11.5 in the Fairfax was the best fit. I’ve had my first pair for several years and recently purchased another because I wanted them in black too. Highly recommended!!
