To say that Michael Anthony’s motto is “…measure twice, cut once” would be a gross understatement. No eye-ballin’ or thumbnails allowed. He’s a maniac for details. He’s got at least five or six different lining leathers he uses for his boots. He picks a different one depending on the top and vamp material, color, price, weight of the boot…stuff like that.

Michael Anthony: Some people would call me…ummm, what’s the word..?
JJ: …anal
Michael Anthony: Yeah that’s it. I’m anal.
JJ: Yep.
