Thorogood Moc Toe Boot Review - Thorogood boots are known as the best work boots by many but thorogoods boots have lots of sythetic materials. I reviewed thorogoods american heritage moc toe boots last year for moctober and was pleasantly surprised but you can only learn so much from a brand new work boots. so today we are cutting a worn out pair in half to see what's inside and if they are worth after 1000 miles boots worth of wear.

Please do a breakdown of the women’s moc toe from red wing since a lot of people say they aren’t as well built, while others say that it’s just as good. Would love to see them this year in Moctober.
Need to see this too bc my girl wants some lmao
I believe it’s actually wuite the contrary. The women’s stuff doesn’t get as big of a production run as the men’s stuff, so quality and attention to detail is usually better than the men’s counterparts. An example of higher quality is that on one of the women’s models, they use a full leather stacked inch and a half heel. Show me a men’s Red Wing boot that does the same!
It would be nice to see more analysis of women's boots for utility, not just fashion.
That would be an interesting video, it would be weird if they deliberately made the women's boots lower quality
Red Wing states on their page that the womens Moc Toe boots are mostly the same as the mens (cork midsole etc.) exept for available sizes, slightly different last (due to different foot shape) and softer leather and polyurethane outsole (rubber on the mens versions). They run 290$ on their page while the mens versions are 280-290$, but I'm sure they sell a lot more mens boots making those slightly more cost effective to produce (economies of scale).
It's true however that women tend to buy more fashion footwear wich is usually lower quality for the price.
Are we not going to talk about Toaster obviously getting into the cocktails and stumbling off the table at 4:00?!?! I was dying!!
Toaster got toasted
I never pictured toaster as a drinker I always took him as a occasional joint smoker
I’m on my 3rd sole and they are still holding up.
The stitching is kinda coming undone but I used super glue to give me more life out of them. Awesome boots.
I’m an Ironworker local 377.
98% of us are wearing Thorogoods and Red Wings.
red wings... been thinking of getting a pair of nicks or vibergs but they are so damn expensive
I have over 5 years in the oilfield on one pair of thorogoods. They need a resole really bad but their still holding up
Any problems with the heel counter collapsing and rubbing your heel or tendon? My only concern is that synthetic counter.
@@collectivismkills no problems with the heel. Great boots!
Okay, thanks!
Nice, bought a pair last year on your recommendation and it's been 10 months for me. They're still going strong! Also "Wheel of death" addition? Angle grinder. 😅😂
Hell yeah to the angle grinder
Water jet. Also, a laser cutter.
Coming from aviation maintenance, thorogood is the way to go for one reason only: the outsole is skydrol resistant. Any other boot with a rubber outsole, skydrol will begin to soften and eventually melt them. Thorogoods have also served me well past 1,000 miles of walking and can clean up very easily.
Will Remember this. I am 19 and have been going to school to get my A&P exited for that liscense.
what about vibram christy sole or the vibram 2021 wedge. Most wedge boots are these two soles.
Hopefully thorogood is watching and fix the weak parts. Good to know that thorogood is worth it. Gratitude for this video.
I’m loving all this new content.
"You have my sword"... "And my AXE" !
I wanna see boots cut with swords and axes 😁
I bought mine years ago and they were about $120, crazy to see the bump in price. I have the plain toe ones and I love them. Got me through plenty of winters in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Glad these hold up well over the years!
I want to see toaster claw through the boot. Totally reasonable
Pin this comment.
What a great start to Mocktober!! Thank you Weston!
I bought my first pair of thorogoods simply because of the moctober series. Thank you for putting out this content!
I’ve had this pair of boots for over three years and they’ve been re-soled three times. Still comfortable and very durable.
This is the video that closed me on trying the Thorogood's. I'm sure glad I got them, they're doing a great job.
Wheel suggestion: put catnip on the boot and have Toaster claw it up.
Good to know I should be getting mine tomorrow. Can't wait to see what the break in time will be
Add chain saw to the "Wheel of Death".
I watch a lot of boot review channels but I think I watch yours the most because of your cats that show up every now and again! :)
Loving moctober can't wait to watch this video.
New video idea, high end wellies like hunter, agile chaume and see the difference
"This boot is still in really good condition"..... as he's holding two half's of the same boot😂
I love Redwings but steel toed 8" Thorogoods are my go to work boot. Wheel of death suggestion ... ripped apart by chimps ... random but probably exciting to watch.
I have a pair of Thorogood steel toes that are very comfortable. The sole, and upper are worn, but not worn out. My only issue is a speed hook on the right boot came off after only wearing them for 5 months. Good boots, more comfortable than most.
Your videos are awesome. Thank you for the great content!
Thorogood just had a price increase a few days ago. They now go for $250. I was able to get a pair for $150 which was amazing to me.
Not as amazing as those boots have been I'll bet. 😉
I’m betting the price of boots are going to go up across the market.
@@lolyermad Thorogods are also becoming popular with the hipsters who don't even work in them.
@@davidgerald133 Started wearing mine as a rural FedEx driver, but now that I'm in an office I guess I'm one of those hipsters lol.
I got my first pair of thorogoods in May. I bought them because they were not only much more affordable than redwings, but they seemed they could last you decades. I'm so proud of my decision after watching this video; stylish useful and a good investment. Also just curious, would you recommend the Oilrigger wellingtons from them? If not, what other boot in the 200 to 250 dollar range would work.
Love the new content, graphics and now cutting methods!!! Lol
Sponsorship/ads/commercials: IDK if I'm in the majority here, but I actually like (or at least, appreciate and don't dislike) this style of advertisement.
You're not pretending it's not an ad, you show the product and give a quick infomercial. Feels honest and straightforward.
Use a chainsaw as the next cutting device. That will give a good show and will also educate on how the boot will react.
I was gonna comment it if you didn’t 😂😂
I think it's gonna educate on how vulnerable your feet are even inside boots 😬
I was gonna say buzzsaw or angle grinder, but this is better.
They're just gonna need to find a good way to mount it.
Plus, if you already have Michael Myers’ murder weapon of choice, then it's only natural to add that of Leatherface next.
@@kaikaichen I guess, by that logic, a machete and fingerblades are next in line, then?
Great videos!
Woah awesome production… havent tuned in for a while
I just ordered my 3rd pair of thorogood boots. They always need some break in time in the toe box but after that they’re the best I’ve had and I’ve had a lot of different boots
That chopper build better get good views im so pumped to watch it
Love the intro music and new content
I LOVE my Thorogood's! Wearing them right now.
Can confirm, they’re good boots. Mine are going on 4 years of daily wear. Mostly on concrete/asphalt, walking around different buildings with ladders thrown in between. But they’re great. I had to reglue the sole in a couple of places as it started splitting from the midsole but the glue has held up and so has the rest of the boot. I also have some Red Wing Mocs now, but these thorogoods will always have a place.
I have the same boots with probably 1000 miles of casual wear. (Ended up not needing them as a work boot.) Oiled regularly and they still look newish.
Thanks for the video and I know your famous and all but I got to ask I’m wonder what brand was the shirt you were wearing the banded collar
worn mine for a year and yess the lining in the vamp started to come off it has a plastic toe cap that started to dig into my toes
Great content, new boots are interesting but these used boots are really the proof.
Excited for the Carolinas too, likely picking those up if your review is positive...
I've wore thorogoods for yrs for work I'm a welder and I can get 2 and half to 3yrs out of a pair usually wear a hole through bottom before the steel in toe starts to show or stitching comes out great boots well worth the money
Absolutely love my Thorogoods. My absolute go to brand for work boots
Did you guys do the Danner Bull Run moc toe? If you did, that would be cool to see. If not, maybe something to look into? Just bought a pair a few weeks ago and I’ve been enjoying them.
Radial arm saw (I can donate it). Maybe a sword. For a challenge, sewing scissors.
Work boots stuff, and Harley Davidson. This channel is gold.
This is going to be a solid series
Love my thorogoods. I will say that soft leather obviously means there’s little to know break in, but they get scarred very easily. But overall I love them.
These are great boots. Its unfortunate Thorogood decided to discontinue the extended widths. I wore these for years but now can't get a pair that fit.
I have a pair of 8" heritage steel toe Thorogoods that I've had for about 5 years. Resole is about $50. Add some new laces and insole and they're like new!
That cat makes every video 10x better
Add a con-saw to the wheel of death. No idea how you would hold the boot safely, but I am sure you'll figure it out 😂
Carolina Amp USA Wedge Boot
Those are amazing moc toe boots. They are the best work boots I’ve ever owned. The price is under $200 which is impeccable for The quality. You should do a review on them.
dis is a certified hood classic
I have the Thorogood Heritage 6” waterproof boots, they have a full waterproof membrane liner. I like them a lot, have you analysed this model?
I'm 2 years in on my 4364's and am very happy, they're my everyday off work boots though so I'll probably get a couple more years out of a boot I already would have needed to replace if worn at work.
The thing is as you know they are not intended for people looking for a heritage quality boot.
Weinbrenner seems to have picked and chosen the best compromises to dial their thorogood boots into that $200 price point.
Look at Georgia boot or Carolina from HH Brown, their boots are a decently less expensive and it shows .
They're already giving you a lot of value for the money, and to offer a leather welt and more durable vamp lining they would have to up the price or drop the machined brass speed lace hooks and probably the max wear wedge.
It's just not what the blue collar workers giving their boots hell want.
A nicer heritage version would be nice though and definitely give redwing a run for their money, they already do their 1892 series which has a leather welt and is priced under $300.
I definitely love my Tomahawks in Chromexel, and they were a steal.at $250 ( they're usually priced a little higher though)
They could definitely do similar in the 4364 and I would not hesitate.
Of course in the moc toe too for those who want a moc toe.
Thorogoods are the best work boot out there, period
Could you start doing the same kinds of videos (where you go through the product and analyze it layer by layer) but with leather jackets? Thanks
I'm dying to see a 1000 mile cut in half Jim Green boot video! I am also dying to see a Jim Green resole video! I'm older and will never likely wear out my Jim Green's. I wish I could have gotten a pair when I I was younger and beat the hell out of them lol.
Shoulda sent you my old thoroughgoods
Had 2 and a half yrs on them working 10-16 hrs a day and finally just got a new pair
I have a pair of boots that are five years old and have been over a ton of terrain with me, although there is still a ton of life left in them I am VERY tempted to send them to you just to see what is inside them.
Love to see the Grant Stone Brass boot added to this moctober line up!
Yes, that would be great. Good recommendation! I have a pair of brass boots in saddle tan that I got used...I’d love to see how they will hold up.
Chainsaw please 😂 loving the innovations and changes to your format/presentations to celebrate certain month(s)
Chainsaw to wheel of death.
Shovelhead Harley Series is next Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday! What do you want me to give away in each video? I need some cool ideas!
leather coaster :) or toaster :p
Maybe a leather wallet that match the boots that have passed your tests?
Give away a rose anvil t-shirt, along with boot cleaning kit, or maybe some nice cotton waxed laces, oh and of course some of your cool wallets..maybe even give away some scrap Horween Shell Cordavan? Lol pushing it there I know…
Leather making tools🤷🏻♂️
@@music-ve1gx a leather coaster would be perfect
Have you done a review for tbe Thorogood 1957 series? Are they the same as heritage line or are they a step up in materials?
i have a pairof thorogood roofer boots and these boots are unbelievable strong super quality.
damn I'm building a cone shovel chopper too lol nice timing
I'm a General Motors technician. A pair of these lasted me 5 years of 10 hour days standing and walking on concrete from start to finish. Unheard of. Still wearable too but have been replaced with a new pair. Has to be thousands of miles worth. I bought another pair to wear out and at home, they will last decades with casual wear.
I really like your shirt!
Will there ever be series about winter boots? Preferably something actually cold, like, -30 C and further down
You should check out the waxi boots from Kommando store the have limited runs semi annually i think they are a pretty trick pair of summer boots for the price
What type of oil would anyone suggest ? Cheers! Edit one …what oil is best to maintain any hoot or this one mentioned in video? Cheers
Dang, wish I could have sent you my worn out pair of Lems Boulder Boots for Moctober!
My coworkers swear by Thorogood boots for their comfort. I have been on the fence about it but now I think that when my current workboots die, I will pick up a set of Thorogoods (I am a local 157 union carpenter in NYC). I already have a set of Red Wing 875 moc toe, which I love but they are strictly for casual wear, they are too pretty to use for work. By the way, you are partly responsible for getting me into quality boots, your channel more than any other TH-camr educated me as to what to look for in boots. Now I am hooked, I may have to join Boots Anonymous to break this boot acquisition habit I developed...not the worse addiction. Presently I am waiting for my Truman boots (Java waxed flesh) to arrive to add to my growing collection (grant stones, red wing, jim green, Helm, Wilcox, Danner). By the way, will you do a review of Truman boots in 2023? They have some awesome leather selections, and the construction seems to be top notch for a slightly lighter pacific northwest boot. I plan on getting a Nicks Americana boot in 2023, their other workboots styles are just too heavy for me.
Can you do the red wing classic Chelsea when moctober is over?
Does the polyurethane sole on the thorogood grip better on slick floors than the red wing? Say you're going up a wet roof after just having stood in grease/oily water.....which boots would you rather have?
The cat friend is cool. I have a black cat in my shop in the backyard. I go out, she goes. I work, come in, she comes along. I sit in the recliner, she joins me. I am not a cat petson, but hard to not love them.
There’s a shop local to me where I buy all my boots, redwing, thorogood and much more and he resoles all crepe sole boots for 90 dollars flat rate
Love the constant increase in production quality.
It might perhaps be somewhat risky, but I would like to see boots cut with broken glass (beer bottle?)
I pour concrete obviously I don't try to wear them in the mud but I've done concrete welding and mechanics I'm truly a concrete finisher but played with the three trades that really need steelies
Can you do a comparison between the Thorogood American heritage and the 1957 waterproof boots? Curious to know if the quality of the 1957s is equal to the American heritage series.
Hi Weston,is cordovan leather thicker,better quality compared to bull hide or buffalo??
Does oiling help with cement? My boots seem to dry up really fast because of the cement /:
Ive got a the 57's and they're really broken in and look badass😆
Are there pros- cons to different colors of thorogoods leather. Tobacco compared to the dark brown?
MAN I LOVE YOUR CAT BRO ID LOVE A WHOLE VIDEO ON HIM LIVING HIS BEST LIFE HAHA!! 😁😀😊😀😁😀😊😀😁😀😊😀😁😀😊
Hi, you should review the "Brandit Phantom Boots"
I've got about 800 miles on my Thorogood's with a steel toe.
I've got some holes in the tongue a they've started cracking pretty severely around the ankle area.
I've been cleaning these at least twice per month and conditioning with Armstrong following each cleaning.
I believe that despite drying these on the Peet boot dryer each day that leather just can't hold up to sweat very well?
very nice,,,,
Whats your favorite conditioners for red wing supersole 2.0? I used the natural seal but seemed to not perform well in the industrial area. The mink oil soaked in very well and didnt leave a waxy gloss ontop of the leather. Mink oil seemed to water proof better.
I made a concoction with beeswax and shea butter that worked well when I was a security contractor down in latinamerica with a mining company. All the dust, oils and acids seemed to repel a little better. The only issue was that when washing the boots with saddle soap, it was a little harder to clean thoroughly and had to use dish soap.
Wheel of death addition: a massive two-person saw. The comedic type in old movies.
What would have been the optimal point to get a resole?
Lots guys really like them boots that work construction. I wish more boot company would start making a narrow boot. I am stuck with redwings for off the shelf boot. I prefer a custom boot.
When Thorogood was was marketed as Weinbrenner decades ago they used to make most styles in a narrow width - I know because I had to buy the narrow width.
Up until I retired after 32 years working in forestry & wildland fire I wore off-the-shelf Whites & Nicks boots in A & B widths. I did have a custom made pair of Wesco (West Coast Boots) in the early 80s. Certain Danner lasts also run narrow such as the one they use for their Portland made Rain Forest.
Okay how about a mocktober T-shirt?? With the little skeleton design from the beginning of the video?
Looking forward to the Carolinas, which I prefer due to their different foot shape. There was never anything wrong with my Thorogoods, except they just weren't for my feet.
Completely agree. The Thorogoods I had were good boots but just killed the tops of my feet. Carolina has a very similar boot but much more comfortable for ME
Thorogood foot molds, I heard somewhere back in the day are narrower and asymetrical. For us big men we need EE in the toebox, might get away with just E. @@karls5474
We need more Hannah in our lives!!!
Beerus over there looking for those sweet earth snacks. Found a dirty boot instead. He gon' blowed us up.🤯
I don’t work hard labor...just need boots for yard work and working on my cars and shoveling snow and for general everyday wear, so Red Wing or Thorogoo?
I bought a pair of Thorogood with the same sole a year or so ago. They where treated well (have an older pair to "work" in). After a year my big toe feels bruise when wearing them .They do not have near the miles the old boots have on them. Then the stitching seemed to come undone a few months after I purchased them. Not sure they are worth the money anymore.
Can't wait for the motorcycle build!
