Enjoyed watching this collab very much. Funnily enough I knew of both your guys' channels individually. And here you are both hanging out talking about boots! Great video!!
Dale, repeat ofter me. I AM a boot Addict. I surrender my will to a higher power.... lol Have you began your 12 Step Program? We admitted we were powerless over buying boots-that our lives had become unmanageable. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves. Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs. We're entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character. Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings. Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all. Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others. Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to boot alcoholics and to practice these principles in all our affairs. All that being said what is the next pair you plan to buy?
It really is about how you structure your finances over what you do (Usually). I don't make grundles of money but my house is modest and paid for, my vehicles are a bit older and paid for and so I can afford the occasional pair of quality footwear, firearm or whatnot.
OMG! 75 pairs. Part of me is shocked, but a bigger part of me is in awe and very envious. If I had the money then I’d do the same, but with lots of British, Northamptonshire made boots and shoes mixed in there, too. Great video! 👍
This was awesome! You guys are the best 🙌🏽 Well played, Nick….By the way, your opening scene with you walking down the street talking was very nicely done; nice touch, and great fit I might add- rugged but sharp 👊🏽
Nick that looks like my place! Lol I thought I was the only one. Dale is awesome man. I want his channel to be very successful. He does great things. Nick you’re awesome as well. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Thank you guys! Great job!
I have 3 grant stones, an oxford, 1 diesel boot in kudu and 1 brass boot. Their build quality, feel and comfort is amazing. The only thing is that I avoid their leather soled shoes like the oxfords as the toe wore out before I even broke the shoes in, and I resoled it in vibram rubber. I might walk weird but the leather soles definitely are a little too delicate for pavement. Excellent customer service though and they actually gave me the cost of the resole’s worth of money in gift cards. Excellent!
I'm glad y'all finally connected. When I was considering a pair of Java Waxed Flesh boots I watched Dale's review right after yours. I also loved his re-waxing video. His enthusiasm despite having only a modest TH-cam following is super commendable
Oh man, this is the real collection that I dream of. All those beautiful boots, really well worn,... Take a big amount of money to collect them and more time for break in and condition, just wow.
Mr. Redacted and I have some very similar sentiments about boots. If I’m not proud of where my things are coming from and how they’re made I don’t want to wear them. I’m at 50-60 now and shrinking, but including old pairs that are retired or too small.
Great video. Enjoyed watching more boot talk! The audio was difficult to hear, it sounded very tinny. Not sure if it’s because of the room you were in or the setting for the cardioid microphone.
In the coming collapse there’s going to be a critical need for leather goods. Bring your scalps and hides to Dale’s Leatherworks for a steep discount. Fun fact most of those boots aren’t matching and still have a foot inside!
Interesting interview Nick! Thanks for the awesome interview with Dale "[Redacted]". Now I have a new milestone : 75 pairs of boots Another 61 pairs more to go! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You guys want to hike up a mountain, come visit. I’m surrounded by them. I could use the help cutting wood and doing work around the place, 40 acres requires a bit of attention. I love all of Dales boots, but to be honest, I’m much more comfortable wearing Danners or other brands I don’t mind beating up. I hit a pair of 1000 mile with my chainsaw and the boots lost.
I’m going to get roasted for this, but…there is a boot brand you’ll only find in malls called FreeBird (after the Lynrd Skynrd song.) The model is the Easton and I have a pair. They’re made in León so lack of design or craftsmanship, but I guess the only criticism I have is that they’re not going to last as long as all the other offerings previously mentioned by the other leather nerds here. They do look cool though!
As boot lovers, don't we have few pairs of boots (even often one pair) that we actually use all the time and we re-sole when needed? Isn't it the whole point of good leather shoes?
This was the idea when I first got more into it, but I just ended up wanting some variety. I have half a dozen pairs I like a lot now, but 3 of those only get worn a few times a year. The other 3 I have actually resoled once each. I just can't be that minimalist. The love is too strong.
Different colors and variety is my reason but I think around 20 pairs is enough. A good mix of heritage, work, Chelsea, western, and engineer starts to add up quick.
@@Stridewise I see that but why putting a light on those and not on the real ones that work during years on one pair of boots? That guy you interviewed in this video has superficial knowledge of the multiples boots he has because he ended up not really wearing them.
@@strengthandbulkMadness I would even say that 10 is more than enough but I see what you mean. Still with 20 I wonder if you have time to wear them all and appreciate them? 🙃 I feel that life is too short to even properly age one pair of boots, so imagine those 75... this is ridiculous.
To say he has a fetish for boots is an understatement. I am that way with musical instruments. You are missing out not wearing an 8" high boot. The boot literally cannot move around, rub, be uncomfortable. If you have to run or walk 20miles you will wish you had an 8" boot. I must be very simple. I have some Allen Edmonds Patton cap toe boots for dress. For every day, work, hunting, concrete work, is is the Red Wind 8" moc toe.
I concur, thats why my most worn boots are 8 inches tall, gusseted to the top. The shaft height also nicely hide the knot up under the pants , creating tidier look when I'm walking or sitting.
Sir I had the same psychological attraction towards Boots and sheos.From 2007 to 2016 whatever money I made I bought boots shoes sneakers.I dont have 75 boots but may have many more altogether.My Favorite boot was Nicks boot and whites a Cap toe one.I think I wasted my money.that is y I dont own a car.Now I dont buy anything.
Gotta be honest it hurts me to see such a nice collection of leather boots without any cedar shoe trees to protect all of them and keep their form and shape. You can tell from the creased crunched toes that they aren't stored with any properly.
If you're a youruber for boots i get it, but as a consumer, I bought a pair of expensive leather boots So i could have one pair for years and years to save money
You never know when the day is going bring the aliens and you're Ray Ferrier stealing a van, saving your children, and dealing with War of the Worlds,. You're gonna need some boots and a jacket too,
A motorcycle needs to be the days journey with engineer boots. Its all you need.. Clothes are just an after thought 😂😂😂😂😂.. Go without, just watch the thigh on the exhaust 😂😂😂

@@JNC03 check back tomorrow!
Was such a pleasure having you over Nick, thanks so much for taking the time to document the ENTIRE boot collection!!! Come back anytime my man!!!!
Pleasure was all mine!
Great collections Big Bro 😍🥰😎

"See, honey, I don't have a problem, at least not compared to this guy!" LOL. Nick, Killing it.
Heheh
It really is about how you structure your finances over what you do (Usually). I don't make grundles of money but my house is modest and paid for, my vehicles are a bit older and paid for and so I can afford the occasional pair of quality footwear, firearm or whatnot.
Aerosurferlv is the best. Love his Real Boot Talk interviews.
Nick, that was a great fun video. Dale is very good, I look forward to more of your collaborations with him.
His reason for why he wears boots resonates with me. Feel the same way but haven’t really put it into words.
awesome
OMG! 75 pairs. Part of me is shocked, but a bigger part of me is in awe and very envious. If I had the money then I’d do the same, but with lots of British, Northamptonshire made boots and shoes mixed in there, too.

This was awesome! You guys are the best 🙌🏽 Well played, Nick….By the way, your opening scene with you walking down the street talking was very nicely done; nice touch, and great fit I might add- rugged but sharp 👊🏽
Thanks so much!! Rugged but sharp is a good name for that rogue territory jacket!
Nick that looks like my place! Lol I thought I was the only one. Dale is awesome man. I want his channel to be very successful. He does great things. Nick you’re awesome as well. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Thank you guys! Great job!
Wow it's like a boot chapel. I would want to burn a bootlace and say a prayer before leaving. Amazingly cool collection, Dale... Thanks Nick!
ha this is perfect! i should have
Great video! Dale is definitely a one-of-a-kind & glad you captured just how he comes off in his own videos as being just a kool kat!
Totally!
Nice crossover episode, and that is an awesome collection. Dale's sizing video reviews are the best I've seen, keep the content coming!
I have 3 grant stones, an oxford, 1 diesel boot in kudu and 1 brass boot. Their build quality, feel and comfort is amazing. The only thing is that I avoid their leather soled shoes like the oxfords as the toe wore out before I even broke the shoes in, and I resoled it in vibram rubber.

Yeah Dale is all about the boots, a very pure love of the craft!
Such amazing collection, this dude is ready for anything, anytime, anywhere .
I kind of want those alden 405 boots now just because of how new they look after so much wear.
Yeah the 405's leather is magic, there's a good look at it in my best alden boots video th-cam.com/video/XDx7F1V7T3s/w-d-xo.html
Oh man, this is the real collection that I dream of. All those beautiful boots, really well worn,... Take a big amount of money to collect them and more time for break in and condition, just wow.
The Indy boot really stands out. Adding that to my list.
Yea I plan to do a video with a buddy on his Alden collection soon!
Word on the street is that Dale is already framing a photo of Nick to hang up in future videos
No just wyatt, which deserves it tbh
Word on the street? Did Dale spill his scrabble set on streets?
Mr. Redacted and I have some very similar sentiments about boots. If I’m not proud of where my things are coming from and how they’re made I don’t want to wear them. I’m at 50-60 now and shrinking, but including old pairs that are retired or too small.
The framed picture of Wyatt Gilmore is a bit cringe and frightening, but bizarreness aside, Dale is clearly a very affable guy.
Too funny im the guy that asked what he does for a living! What a sick collection! Love both gents content cant get enough
I really wanted him to talk about his mark Albert customs
Great video! I always go to Dale for boot advice. Great guy!
The best!
I have 30+ pairs of boots, I am currently making my wife watch this so she knows I don’t have a problem. Thanks for making this video.
Yet you still have a problem
@@vianouche1 I am using other people’s problems to make my problem look like an affectation, like a guy that wears a monocle or a top hat
What I want to know is what storage system is that?
I was unaware Dale was a fellow Marylander. Good to see. Nice work on the video as always.
The collision of two universes💥.
That was fun to watch. I've heard you mention a storage unit for your boots Nick, so guessing you're getting close to that number lol.
Great video. Nice collection
Glad you liked it my man
A video incorporating my two favorite boot guys. Have I died and gone to heaven?
I really really really love this videos...
Guilt or Gilt is mentioned a few times. What is that? Great video, what both your channels. Thanks for posting.
Does anybody know what make and model of watch is Dale wearing?
❤the guy’s passion for boots!
Great video. Enjoyed watching more boot talk!
The audio was difficult to hear, it sounded very tinny. Not sure if it’s because of the room you were in or the setting for the cardioid microphone.
Birkenstocks and tevas for life!
Boys just get bigger and more expensive toys as we grow!
Dale must have hard feet always having to break in boots it's going to take year breaking all these boots !
Great vid
Nice show guys!
In the coming collapse there’s going to be a critical need for leather goods. Bring your scalps and hides to Dale’s Leatherworks for a steep discount.
Fun fact most of those boots aren’t matching and still have a foot inside!
the important thing is you survived the apocalypse
Nah, we’re all going to end up made into gimp masks and knife-dildo harnesses from Seven brah..
Love your jacket !! May I ask you what blend model it is?
Interesting interview Nick! Thanks for the awesome interview with Dale "[Redacted]".
Now I have a new milestone : 75 pairs of boots
Another 61 pairs more to go! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Go for it!
Only 70 more to go!
You guys want to hike up a mountain, come visit. I’m surrounded by them. I could use the help cutting wood and doing work around the place, 40 acres requires a bit of attention.

Reminds me of my 20 piece watch collection
What an epic collection!
You should check out Vintage Engineer Boots (VEB). He has a really cool engineer boots collection
Great collection!
Guys, what are they grey boots at 2:49?
I think it’s a Grant Stone Diesel.
it is!
I’m the same way with my boots feel naked with shoes on 😂😂😂
I’m going to get roasted for this, but…there is a boot brand you’ll only find in malls called FreeBird (after the Lynrd Skynrd song.) The model is the Easton and I have a pair. They’re made in León so lack of design or craftsmanship, but I guess the only criticism I have is that they’re not going to last as long as all the other offerings previously mentioned by the other leather nerds here. They do look cool though!
Those Boots are sweeet ..wish I could choose 10 from your collection 😭
I want those blue and grey ones
My Truman cognac bison are marvelous boots
How many pairs does CJ Cook have again?
Dude has a really nice collection!
I think so too John!
75 pairs of boots in a walk-in boot display. Walk-in boot display was once sold as a house by the realtor.
i have never feels so jealous in my life, looking at someone collection...
Just wondering how many of Dale's boots Nick tried on?
he's the wrong size :'( it was torture
None I hope, Dale is like an 8.5 and Nick is like a 11.5
Great Bond-Jacket!
Thanks! Video is coming up
75....YIKES... He's into em Nick...!

Makes me sad so many shoe/boot companies stop at a size 13. I'm a 14 EEE
Off to Nicks/Whites/Alden then!
Same a good pair of boots makes me feel stable and less shy lol 🤷🏽♂️
U two are my heroes
Thanks Ben!
I have the same feeling with boots as dale felt......😄
For some reason I prefer a boot collection than a Sneaker collection
I’m surprised a Rambler wasn’t your favorite.
"This [bleeping] weirdo..." @16:20
Never took you for the cursing type.
Having said that, long been wanting to say something about that picture.
Boot goals
The first think the does at the door is check out Nick's boots
haha they were Grant Stones so I passed the test
The biggest problem of having so many stuff whether it boots or clothes is to take care of them.
I love cars and boots !
Cool boots, but I gotta say, the pic of Wyatt is very weird.
Dale is a great character
This guy wears a panerai. This guy means business.
Sir I had the same psychological attraction towards Boots and sheos.From 2007 to 2016 whatever money I made I bought boots shoes sneakers.I dont have 75 boots but may have many more altogether.My Favorite boot was Nicks boot and whites a Cap toe one.I think I wasted my money.that is y I dont own a car.Now I dont buy anything.
That’s a fair question…
Love it.. 75 Is my #BootGoals
This guy needs a pair of RM Williams in his collection.
Doesn't everyone!
And inspiration or a cautionary tale? Maybe a bit of both.
Gotta be honest it hurts me to see such a nice collection of leather boots without any cedar shoe trees to protect all of them and keep their form and shape. You can tell from the creased crunched toes that they aren't stored with any properly.
Did I see Johnston Murphy there
i owned a few pairs of JM back in 2013 but donated them to my dad!
If you're a youruber for boots i get it, but as a consumer, I bought a pair of expensive leather boots So i could have one pair for years and years to save money
I don't feel so bad now buying three new pairs of Thorogoods 😉
It would be handy if you were a centipede!
The real question is why wouldn't you have 75 pairs of boots🤔, a boot for every occasion and or situation 💪🏾‼️
One good pair is enough
@@Chris-qb6lb good point indeed 🙏🏻
What no Red Wings? 🤔
The man likes what he likes!
this guy must be always be new boot goofin
Morning, afternoon and evening = change up and its like having 3 pairs of feet
i have 9 pairs so far. send help !!!
if anyone says anything ill show them this guy 😂
I FEEL THE SAME WAY ABOUT MY BOOTS IT'S CALLED STYLE.
My friend : 75... that's nothing
Stridewise : how many?
My friend : over 130 Fluevogs
You never know when the day is going bring the aliens and you're Ray Ferrier stealing a van, saving your children, and dealing with War of the Worlds,. You're gonna need some boots and a jacket too,
Nothing quite like sliding a pair of nice boots on, lacing up and then going out to collect panties lol
What does he mean he bought them on guilt? Is that a website?
yeah gilt.com
He has 150 feet.
A motorcycle needs to be the days journey with engineer boots. Its all you need.. Clothes are just an after thought 😂😂😂😂😂.. Go without, just watch the thigh on the exhaust 😂😂😂
So does he feel naked without his boots when he's taking a shower? That's a brain twister lol
