Your Rolex and your Boots...
I received these as a gift from my Surgical Residency (in Texas of course) for completing training several years ago. Custom handmade boots, ostrich lowers with buffalo uppers and custom initials....a great momento of training and living in Texas. They were made by JL Mercer and sons, who opened and started making their boots in 1923, and have made boots for John Wayne, Lyndon Johnson, Bill Elliot, among others. Goes great with a "Texas Timex" and scrubs.

Let's see you Rolex and your boots!

Not Rolex but Italian style and ruggedness all the way.

As a Texan, I'd say a nice pair of Lucchese Classics go best with a Rolex!

Lucchese's are the best mass produced boots you can buy IMO. BUT they are not the same as custom made and measured. But I love every pair of Lucchese's I have (and that's quite a few).

What up doc? There are several (probably more) surgeons here. We aren't all as lucky as Tom and his collection, but hey, we try! Welcome!

The Bean boots have been getting some foot time with the rainy weather we've had the past few days.
