    I'm almost 50 years old, dude, and from England. I'm exactly the same - I started wearing jeans and boots (DM's originally, then Timberlands, but wear Trickers/Cheaney etc.. now) from 14 years old. I never subscribed to jeans and trainers (sneakers where you are). Keep doing what you doing and wear what you like not what society says you should like. Good on you pal, keep up the good work.

    Hi bro, I'm from Brazil and when I saw your video about jeans and boots, it taught me so much. I started wearing jeans when I was little and now I can't stop wearing them, and I understand the magical feeling of wearing boots. I recently got a pair of boots from my grandma and dad and the feeling of wearing them is simply magical. Know that you gained a subscriber, and your videos help me practice my English. Thanks bro.

    When it is time for a new pair of boots, if you want to move up to the next level, check out Thursday boots. They are a higher quality boot and most cost $199. They are made in Mexico though and I know you want to buy made in the U.S. stuff. They have a few models that are made in the U.S. for a little more money, such as their Vanguard.
    Also, Red Wing Heritage boots are made in the U.S. and start at $300. The great thing about the Red Wings and the Thursdays is that they are Goodyear welted and can be re-soled.
    If you take good care of them, they could last you much of your lifetime. Buy two pair, alternate them, and keep use cedar boot trees when you aren't wearing them. You will have some upfront costs but they will last you a very long time.
    I also recommend Merino wool blend socks. Pricey but if you keep your toenails trimmed and filed, they will last you too. I like Darn Tough and Boardroom socks.

    Been wearing the same "cowboy" boots everyday for years and they always look amazing. Paid 190 bucks for a good pair of Ariats and I take those suckers out in the rain, the mud, I run in em, and nothing can take them down. Boots are meant to be worn, and unless you bought cheap/overpriced garbage they will last.

      That's the way it should be. A good pair of boots are meant to be abused, but can handle it. Even if you get expensive boots, they will last forever (with a couple resoles), and you will get your money back pretty quickly.

    By the way, when I was your age, I had the aame passion. I used to turn the jeans upside down, and then dump them in a bucket with water and detergent and keep them soaked for 20 mins or so, I remembered i had a jeans pretty ok quality and it lasted forever until it got torn apart near my knees when i fell down my motorcycle. Anyway, I was one of the most well dressed guy in my college. Not the guy with most expensive items but decent clothing with clean look. Everybody complicated me all the time.

    I became obsessed within a short period of time, with quality leather boots. Specifically makers from the pacific northwest with the silhouettes designed for laborers. I dove in and got a pair of Whites Perrys for my first leather boots and I have no regrets. The feeling you get from putting these bad boys on is like piecing the last piece of a puzzle with your grandparents while sipping hot cocoa in a mountain cottage. 5 gum could never. If you buy boots, buy good ones if you have the means. It means youll love them more.

    I've definitely had spin cycle ruin the dark pants e'en when they are new BUT I used t' feel the same way about denim jeans until I found other pants that I like wearing a lot more most often. I would wash after two or three days still if doing much more than sitting around the house on cool days, though. You'll still find that e'en w'out washing that they will get soft in the seat, but back in the 70s and 80s, washing was how you made the holes in the knees and stuff come sooner, which made the faded jeans look that much cooler.... Now e'erybody wants cheap pants t' last half a decade or something.

    • @Highland_Paddy
      @Highland_Paddy 17 วันที่ผ่านมา

      We used t' all get three pairs at the beginning of the school year, and then in spring we had two or three pairs of cut-off shorts for summer. And maybe one pair would last until fall or not, depending on if we got some extra pair in March or whatever that didn't fade until they ripped yet.

    It takes about a 8-12 months for me to burn through a pair of jeans only to go looking for new ones again. I have been washing my jeans, but with all my other clothes. What ends up happening that "kills" them is the stitching holding them together at my groin ends up developing a hole, likely from my legs rubbing together when I walk. What can I do to make my jeans last longer? Note I always have bought "flex fit" jeans that have elastic in the material to make them more movable. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Nice video btw

    • @andrew_loura
      @andrew_loura  12 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Start washing them by themselves, without fabric softener and inside out. Remember that each wash will slightly weaken the denim. Make sure that you get high quality denim if they are already wearing out within a year, and I would recommend getting gusseted jeans if they are ripping near the crotch area. Elastic is fine, just make sure the jeans are at least 80% cotton. 100% cotton is ideal though.
