Found a pair of these field boots on ebay and the name is ringing a bell, like that maybe this was the brand of semi custom boots I had when I was a kid (and have long since been tossed). Anyone know anythign about them? I assume the maker is out of business because I am not getting anything when googling.

My first "new" tall boots were Elan. I think I got them at Miller's, would have been in the mid-eighties? I don't think they've been around for a long time! They were a good Vogel knockoff back in the day.

Miller's made them for sure! They were a nice boot, but the ones you're looking at have got to be 15+ years old - confirm their condition if you're planning to bid! I had a friend once who hadn't worn her boots in a couple of years (or more) and when she pulled one on it FELL APART, lol! :teehee: The stitching had disintegrated from just sitting around.

If they're in good condition the Elans are pretty nice boots, though. :yes:

ETA - I just looked at them on eBay - they don't look like the Miller's I'm thinking of...and they read "Beaumont Elan"...Hmmm, it's possible you should ignore everything I just said, lol!
