Default Automatic shift boots

Who makes a really nice replacement boot, preferably w/ custom options (stitching, two-tone, etc.)?
I bought one from Redline but never installed it because it looked no better than the replacements available at Ecklers, Zip, etc. Paper thin leather, top hole too wide, thin stitching, etc. I had heard great things about Redline shift boots, so I was really surprised at what they sent me.

Any good Leatherman worth his salt should be able to make one with no problems. Just give them your old one and instructions on what you want ,give them a few days and go pick it up .

I have a shift boot from Redline and am very happy with it. I specified everything I needed and they came through for me. Perhaps there were options you weren't aware of that they offered and would have made your shift boot what you really wanted. It's a possibility?!?!
