From Discovery.com:
Quote:
"On Season 9 of Lone Star Law, an online task force made up of coastal county game wardens set up a sting to catch illegal sea turtle harvesting for designer boots."

I know a guy that owns an estate sale company and i'm on their email list. I swear there's a pair of boots on the listing this week that look like sea turtle.

No idea what size, but i bet they have no idea what they are. i wouldn't be surprised if they were about $30-40. They don't list prices on the email

I was under the impression that pre-embargo were legal to possess, but you couldn't buy or sell them anymore.

Yes, like elephant Ivory more or less. If you had it, you can keep it, but you can no longer deal in it.

They're sea turtle... I know a guy whose grandfather left him a pair of sea turtle boots and they are identical except for the uppers. Said grandfather owned a boot store for 50 years so I trust his expertise.

fun fact: season 2 of Justified, Raylan Givens boots were switched to ostrich (that would be the leg, not chest) because the showrunners didnt want any trouble after the anteater was placed on the endangered species list.

Anteater (actually pangolin) looks nothing like ostrich, but I can understand how full quill could be mistaken for anteater to someone who has no idea what they're looking at.

I also own a pair of anteater boots.

The pangolin is a hot topic right now. It seems as though it is not only great for making boots, but also for starting pandemics under particular circumstances.

I have a great vintage pair from Montana boot company out of Mexico. Boots are in great shape. I'd be willing to sell or do some trading for them if you are looking for a pair. They say 12, but I think they fit like an 11 maybe 11.5. If not allowed, my apologies.
