My bad, turns out the Bean boots can be resoled despite not being made with Goodyear/storm welt - but only if you send them to Bean themselves! Also, check out the 10 best boots on the market overall: th-cam.com/video/9kuHyyefNGE/w-d-xo.html
I own a pair of the 1907 and the welt top stitch isn’t stitched on to the upper. It’s just stitched through the welt. It’s a faux stitch for show. I was very disappointed after I realized that after a few days
How lond did you keep each boots in the water? Because it depends how long they are in the water. I work outside and i have tried over 20 different boots that say they are waterproof and when it is pouring rain all day they do protect me but just for a couple of hours after that the water eventually starts to go in. I have the timberlands they work for a couple of hours only. I am looking for ones that you can keep ur feet completely inside water for over 10 hours.
From my experience, there is no such thing as a waterproof boot that has laces. For anybody that's trying to find waterproof boots for a full work day, you're gonna want to find some pull on boots. "Waterproof" doesn't mean the same thing to the guy who's selling it as it does to the guy who's buying it.
So many options, thanks Nick. I especially like Tims, great for Boston winters, but I get the 8 inch version. You see Bean boots a lot around here, I tried them but the fit wasn’t great.
Would like to see you test Timberland premium "waterproof boots." There is no Goretex or other waterproof liner yet they say WATERPROOF. It's phony advertising. There is a huge difference between truly waterproof and water resistant. I don't know how they have gotten away with this at best misleading claim all these years. Not saying the quality of the boot is bad, just saying waterproof it ain't.
The Timberland truly are waterproof, I had mine on today near the river and they got a bit muddy so I just stood in the river for a few minutes to wash it off. Not a drop came through.
3:05 Actually, you can send the Bean Boot back to the manufacturer to have it resoled if you still have a receipt of sale. They’ll replace the whole bottom of the boot from the rubber down.
I wonder what your thoughts would be on Schnee's boots. They make a couple of styles of course, but would probably be best compared in the duck boot category.
BUYER BEWARE I own a pair of the 1907 and the welt top stitch isn’t stitched on to the upper. It’s just stitched through the welt. It’s a faux stitch for show. I was very disappointed after I realized that after a few days
You do not want waterPROOF boots if working. Anyone can line a boot with Saran Wrap and call it waterproof, but you WILL end up with wet feet. Think about it. Feet sweat.
I currently live in indonesia and trust me they can resole all boots...i have resoled all my boots that people say cannot be resoled..... Even i resoled my basic converse with vibram sole 😆....
I think the best Red Wing Heritage boot is the 2927 Sawmill in Briar Oil Slick Leather Moc Toe Boot. Unlike their other Moc Toe boots, this boot has an insulated lining. However, it seems to have just recently been discontinued. This boot had a Goodyear Storm Welt construction, and a full waterproof liner.
I just ordered the Alllen Edmonds Chapman based off your review -specifically the the black combat boot. I have not seen many reviews with regard to it all I see is reviews of Allen Edmonds quality control may be shotty, not necessarily with these boots but with certain styles of others ... as the other reviews seem dated. Hopefully I will be satisfied. I have purchased various versions and styles of Thursday boots based off your recommendation and reviews and I am not disappointed. Keep up the good reviews.
@@vianouche1 Plenty of people need boots for a variety of things. Sometimes function supersedes form. Just because _you_ don't need it doesn't make it unnecessary.
LL Bean not resolable? Yes it is, just send it back to the factory for a complete new rubber underside @$39!
Came here to say this
More winter boots please!

Bean boots are absolutely resoleable. It costs 40 bucks and they ship them for you if you bring them to a store
Must also be made from beans! The pair I had were absolute Chinese garbage and not waterproof.
@@M_Ladd
They're made in Maine
@@M_Ladd bruh LL Bean boots are hand manufactured in Maine with 100% American sourced parts.
@@omegamanGXE America has no sourced parts, they all live in China, China gonna own them pretty soon
@@omegamanGXEbruh read the comment they say to get actual beans the ones they had were knock off Chinese garbage and not authentic beans 🤦🏼♂️

Duck boots will likely be the best option there since they are mostly rubber
I find that waterproof boots make your feet sweat - because they aren't breathable. So your feet get wet anyway.
Would you rather have a damp sock or trench foot

Why can waterproof boots withstand heavy rain but leak when walking through 3inchs of wetgrass for 30 minuets ?

Can you do an in-depth review of the ariat Wexford I’m interested in it but I’m not sure of how long lasting it is. Is it resoleable?

Yes! Non gortex pair are resoled. 🙂
To much talking, little video
This "Old Timer" likes watching your reviews Nick...! Great job as usual...GG...IN
Glad you like them!
They have a goretex Red Wing now!
8864 Gore-Tex Moc Toe Russet Taos
Argh, you're right but that's just limited edition so I don't think it'd be great for this video's longevity!
Went to a red wing store to check out the 1907 and noticed the upper row of stitching on the welt was just decorative. Was pretty bummed
Ll bean are resoleable and brunt boots are hot garbage... that is all.
BIAS SELECTIONS..

Awesome!!!!! Like always!!!!! Love your content!!!!!!
Redback Great Barrier - most comfortable water proof work boot
your feet would get soaked wearing a pair of timbs in the lake/big puddle. Don't get work boot advice from a yuppie

Do the Ariets breathe well, or do you find your feet get sweaty on warmer days?
Lacrosse knee high Lagrange are good waterproof boots

Asolo tps 520 gv. Stood in ankle deep water for over an hour to tap a cistern and stayed completely dry.
I live outside Seattle. All my boots have to be waterproof boots.
Allen Edmonds Chapman in black are awesome
Nice video Nick. Glad to see an Allen Edmond’s boot make it to your list. Hope all is well with you. Ed.
I know you believe that the taylor stitch Ohja is the best lightweight jacket, but you should checkout the buzz rickson combat tropical jacket
Oh man. It's a bit too military for me, but it is a cool jacket! I'm wearing Buzz Rickson's peacoat all winter
Thanks for the suggestions. Great video!
Llbean boots are definitely resoluble
Great video. Question. Does Thursday Boot Co. make a water proof boot?
Not waterproof, but they the Explorer has a storm welt like the Red Wing. Turns out the Legend does too but only in Falcon
A review on huckberry cross stitch boot would be interesting….a little on the pricey side
Oh the Quoddy! That's a very interesting boot, thanks for the tip
Resoled my Bean Boots many times!
What about the new Red Wing 8864 gore Tex boot?
Gore Tex is bullshit does absolutely nothing..

The sawmill was amazing. There was also the Ice Cutter in the last 8 that we all missed. Waterproof, insulated, wool footbed round toe anyone?

Oh great! Let me know how it turns out. You can write a review for my site on those Chapman boots if you like!
This is all super ugly and unnecessary
well unless you spend a lot of time in water
