The Truth About Men’s Boots No One Tells You (w/ Kevin Wilson)
On today’s episode of In Love with the Process, host Mike Pecci goes deep into one of his favorite obsessions, men’s boots.
There is an old saying that what matters most is your haircut and your shoes and everything in between is forgivable. Mike takes that idea seriously and unpacks why boots are more than fashion. They are utility, identity, craftsmanship, and a reflection of how you move through the world.
Joining Mike is Kevin Wilson, the founder of Caswell Boot Company, a one man operation built from the ground up in Washington DC. Kevin walks us through the entire boot making process from selecting animal hides to tanning, design decisions, construction, pricing, and the realities of building a sustainable business in a world dominated by fast fashion.
This episode gets wonderfully nerdy as they talk materials, longevity, ethics, branding, and what it really takes to create something meant to last. It is a conversation about patience, pride, and the value of making things the right way.
If you love clothing, craftsmanship, or simply want to understand how the things you wear are actually made, this episode is for you.
