I bought my first Danners on Amazon. They were the Coyote TFX. I had never owned  boot of this caliber before and fell in love with them when I put them on. I wore them every day for 3 years until literally things were coming apart inside and out. I went to purchase another pair but saw they weren't available. I looked at as many options away from Danner as possible (mostly due to price) but then I found the Tanicus. At $139 the price was right and I knew what size to order based on my other Danner boots. I finally bit the bullet.
Thoughts - At first I thought my right boot was too tight and almost sent them back. I changed to thinner socks and wore them for a day. I would call them a perfect fit. These are not Coyote but I have to say I wish they were. I like the lighter colored boots even though the very first day with my TFX I got blood on them. They still looked cool after 3 years. The Tanicus is darker. If you are into that then they look fine. Also, the Tanicus is obviously more of a summer boot than the TFX. They are lighter and seem to have less leather. They are what I would expect from Danner as far as wear/feel goes. So so far they are pretty good but I wish I had  another pair of TFX...to the point where I might do some hunting for a used a pair. I have only worn the Tanicus for three days. I will report back in after a few months. I'll running around the country side this summer and will get a better feel for what they are.
