I swore to myself that I wouldn't buy any more boots. I have more than I will ever need. HOWEVER, a collab remake of the Japanese WWII boots may just break me down. They are just too cool!
Thanks to you Weston for having 2 of my favorites channels. Thanks to Trenton and Heath and Stridewise and your channels for giving me a better idea and appreaction of mens boots and other things as well. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Looking forward to what you do next year....
Glad you mentioned Palladium. They have an interesting French military history and I've owned pairs for years. They are cozy, cheap, and are great replacements for converse high tops.
This channel is the reason I got a pair of iron rangers and officially entered the world of nice boots. The jungle boot video was an interesting one. I'm curious if there's anyone out there making a good new one. I'm a size 13 and 6ft 4in tall so finding originals of anything from that era that fits me is a struggle at best. Most of the companies that advertise the jungle boot as new are suspiciously cheap and seem like something for scamming people at gun shows
I seem to remember that in the comments of that video there was a comment mentioning some company producing really good, functionally identical, to the originals. I thought I had saved the link, but I can't find it on this computer. If I somehow manage to scrounge that up, I'll add a comment below here.
Yes, I'm very curious about that too. I have a pair of Palladiums that are at the least very similar to Jungle boots in design. Mine are long with laces and a zipper down the side and a press-stud so the zipper doesn't come open. I don't know how they compare to the original Jungle boots. Mine are still going very well after 7 years but I haven't given them especially heavy usage. According to the hype, Palladium made boots for the French Foreign legion, but they did also make a pair of casual looking ones that had disappointingly thin sole rubber when it got cut up on this channel. I would be extremely interested to know what my model looks like when cut in half. At any rate my model would probably not be half bad to wear hard until you're really done with them and you could just buy a new pair if you really hammer them. I'm satisfied with mine so far (after about 7 years).
I wear a size 14 or 15 (depending on the company) shoe and I think the company you might be looking for is GoRuck, they have an actual black and green boot, but there boots take inspiration from the old school jungle boots and have served me very well both working and professionally. Those boots are called the MAC-V1
Been waiting all year for this video! A professional no biased opinion. Awesome that you included wide toe box boots, it's all I can wear with my sasquatch feet.
I’ve been rockin the Thorogood Moc Toe for about a year now. They are absolutely the most comfortable boots I’ve ever owned. Perfect boot for me. (Finish carpenter mostly)👍
That info on the jungle boot video was accurate! I ended up doing a presentation for my speech class over US army footwear evolution and used that video as a source!
Would you consider reviewing (and cutting in half) dedicated motorcycle boots that offer CE certifications? Would be a great series I think to see what's inside and get thoughts about comfort on and off motorcycles.
Dang! I was hoping the ND1 would make the list! I was lucky enough to get a pair! They're, in my opinion, the most beautiful and well built boot I've ever purchased, and I can only say that because I trust your excellent tear downs & knowledge regarding boot design.
My Iron rangers have exceeded my expectations. I am pretty harsh on my footwear but they have held up perfectly. I never experienced an uncomfortable break in period and can easily wear them 15 hours a day sometimes with no discomfort.
I'm from Georgia and I've been watching your channel since the first day and I bought Blundstones on your advice, this shoe store is not in my country and I spent a lot of money, but it was worth it. Good luck.
That Keen with the accordion toe is my favorite. If your job requires you to squat at least 20 to 50 times a day. All other boots end up staying that way If you squat in them for a while
This channel has cost me so much money in 2022. I'm looking forward to 2023! Maybe you can do a series on hiking boots? Zamberlan, Kenetrek, Crispi, Hanwag, Vasque, etc? Happy Holidays Weston!
Watching from Central Europe and having watched 4-5 of these boots videos from different channels, it's amazing to me what people in the US consider great value and not expensive 😂
Last year based on the reviews I got a pair of Romeo’s from Georgia Boot Co. and a pair of Carolina moc toes. I wear the Georgia’s to work pretty much every day. For boots in the $90-$120, both are obsoletely worth the price. I love the honest reviews and I’m happy to see the variety on the channel. One day I will get a pair of White’s. Until then, I’m happy with tons of reviews in my price range. Thanks for the great work!
Looking for a snow boot video. I wear the Columbia Artic and Omni heat boots. Would love to see what they’re made of and especially love the way you cut them apart.
I've worn redback slip ons for several years. I cannot reccomend them enough. Once my daily boots get shoddy looking I turn them in to work boots and order another pair. I finally ordered a pair of origin boots during their recent sale. Definitely will not be turning those in to work boots though.
That Japanese wwii boot got me into your channel and let me down the long road of now wanting a pair of Japanese white cloud boots ....... Beyond excited for the new colab for an updated version
I would love to see a pair of Truman boots on your channel. I personally want a pair of moc toes from them, but would be more interested in seeing a video on a boot with their signature commando sole
oh man! i gotta go watch the jungle boot vid. i used to have a pair of those in the 90's that bought from a local surplus store! i'd nearly forgotten about it!
Thanks for your videos and the contest. I was curious of you've ever considered doing a video on a Trickers or Grenson aka English Country-type boot? I've a pair of the Trickers Country Stow and they're great. I also recently purchased a pair of Grenson Fred Triple Welt in hand painted British Tan and did so b/c I was blown away by the triple welt and the overall construction, simply from an external visual perspective of course which is why I'd LOVE to see a video of you cutting a pair in half and digging in to how they do that triple goodyear welt. Just not my pair, lol 🙂 PS. thanks for turning me on to Nicks boots.
Hey Wes, another great video after a year of many new highs. Would love if you did a video about boots you can try on in person in America. There are lots of Red Wing dealers but other than that most of these boots can't be tried on unless you live in NYC or want to return them by mail til you get the right size, which can end up adding another 20% or more to the cost of the boot. Thanks and happy holidays!
So far I’ve got thorogood moc toes for work, whites perry hybrid moc toes for a causal as well as iron ranger in amber harness all from your recommendation and could not be happier! Best boot review Channel on TH-cam.
I'd like to suggest cutting a pair of Allen Edmonds park city boots in half. I bought a pair a year ago and they are my favorite casual boot in my collection so far. Also, I just bought a pair of Georgia moc toe made in usa work 8" boots and there is a lot to like about them for only $200
Bro you have completely opened my eyes to a new world of boots and shoes. I now check my shoes and boots while shopping. Crazy how poorly shoes are made. And some are 90-125$. I have basically tennis Rackets for feet so I have become super picky and can't order online. Thank you!
I love your videos but could you review or recommend some socks to wear with some of these boots? I have thoroughgoods which are so comfy it never mattered what socks I wore but I just got the Whites Perry's which don't have a counter in the heal and I'm getting raw. Are there socks that can help with that?
Break down some hunting boots!! They’re some of the highest priced boots with the most claims of performance. I’d love to see some of these major brands broken down. Crispi, kenetrek, schnees. Thanks for the awesome content.
Thanks for all your great insight & information sharing. I’m 70+, retired, have knee & foot issues of course… I really lik American made heritage type boots. My 8084 IR I use for Harley riding (Road King). 1000 Mile for casual outings. Seems like so many Seniors wear sneakers, mostly New Balance, and very few boot wearers. Been riding motorcycles, hiking, hunting forever so boots for every situation. Is there an all around, comfortable, heritage boot style, not brand specific, for the Senior that’s slowing down, not adventuring as much? Thanks for all you do😎
Love this channel. I need new boots that don't cripple my feet and your channel whether I am just interested in seeing boots sliced in half or want information is the best :)
At one point or another you have reviewed almost every one of the big Pacific NW boot makers I would love to see you cut apart a pair of Dayton's and see how they compare.
I actually have a pair of keens that I wear just when I take my kids to disneyland. I've tried many options for walking those 20k steps a day and they feel so good
i would love to see a "can can a cobbler do" video. showing types of repairs cobblers can address and how what to ask for. this would be great for repairs and new shoes/boots. like what can i ask for, what can i expect and what is a reasonable price.
I'm just glad I found out about Jim Green African Rangers from your channel. I have problems with feet that have swollen due to my age, high blood pressure, and lack of exercise during the lockdown (job became 100% teleworking) and their width and softness and PRICE(!) have made them a perfect boot to purchase and wear as I begin my return to outdoor activities. Much appreciated, and Happy New Year! I'll keep an ear to the ground regarding the Japanese boot collaboration, but my interest will depend mainly on their cost... Peace!
I would love to see a top 5 worst sneakers. I’m a sucker for the technical spec’s because I’m a nerd. Love the historical boot idea too because I show clips of your vids in my classroom
Hey, we are a big fans of your channel both for boots and sneakers. So can you cut in a half some Diemme boots? Maybe Everest hiking boot... and Happy Holidays!
Man I've been watching all the Nicks boots videos and I've never wore a boot that was that quality but they look amazing. I've only spent $300 as a max for boots.
Wondering if you've heard of Nisolo? Wife and I bought boots from them - the All-Weather Andres Boot for me and the Go-To City Hiker Boot for her. Mine felt pretty well broken in after wearing twice, and hers were comfortable right out of the box. Wondering if they won't last very long as a result. I'd love to see what's inside. So far, though, they look and feel great.
After buying a pair of carhartt boots, finding a review of those boots on this channel (not a favorable one apparently lmao), and finding out what makes a decent boot; I bought two pair of Thorogoods (both Moc toe of course) within the last couple months thanks to this channel.
Have you ever heard of the Duradero boots!? They run $175-209 and they offer 1 free resole on each boot they have. Would love to see those and a cut up of the Qlty Dnvr boots.!!!! Thanks again for all your research and knowledge!!!!!
You should do a review on performance boots. Salomon, Lowa, Han Wag... they are quite expensive and it would be interesting to see what is inside and if they also sell just the name or of they are actually worth the price
I can't vouch for their boots, but ecco sneakers have very wide toeboxes and still look very nice IMO. I always go back to them for sneakers, they are so comfortable.
Nice video! Strange that I watch boot videos, but I'm not the only one lol. I have some Russell Mocassins that I love(Zephyr 2) that I would love your take on.
I've had great luck, in terms of value, with Herman survivor professional boots! The driller boots have stayed very comfortable and kept my feet dry in some very nasty conditions!
Just bought a pair of Carolina moc toe work boots after I saw your video dissecting them. I'm very glad I found this channel otherwise I would have spent that $280 on a boot worth 1/2 of the Carolinas price.
I was shocked you mentioned Palladium boots. I used to have a pair of them. I’m curious about those Lems boots. I’ve been debating getting some Jim Greens recently.
I saw a video (that happened to follow this one) where you compared Nicks men’s vs women’s boots. Pls consider Thursday’s men’s vs women’s boots. I love your videos and delighted to be part of 4%! Thanks!
I guess I’m more interested in best _budget_ because saying your best value is so because it is _under 400_ is kind of insane. 300+ shoes are a luxury, the quality kind of doesn’t matter if you cant even afford them…
I went with the Thorogood moc toe in black this time around. They felt great right out of the box, and look awesome. I'm not super hard on boots, so these should last a long time, and they're in the sweet right away.
Thanks for the breakdowns in all the categories. I have worn Blundstones for years but the latest pair has such poor quality I won't buy them again, Red Backs in the future. Now, one of the reasons I like them is I wear shorts all year 'round and I don't think most of the boots you just reviewed will suit not wearing pants. Can you provide suggestions, please. I do like the Lems but I have the trainers and am not sure the boots will suit for constant wear. Best Regards, Felize Navidad.
So, I ended up getting the Thursday Desperado in Arizona Adobe & the Thursday Maverick in Anejo for Christmas from the wife. I like them both. The Desperado for an everyday type Western boot & the Maverick is a more dress up and hit the town. They both look great with jeans & chinos but the Maverick’s can go a notch up on the dressy scale to even a suit. I just wish the shafts were a bit slimmer.
If the Jungle boot video was so popular do a followup comparing the origionals to Rothco, Fox, and others. Also how about a cowboy boot comparison of cheaper brands: Dingo, Laredo, Durango?
I normally prefer taller boots but I also love my converse and palladium's. I really hope the repro Japanese boot goes through, I really enjoyed that video and most definitely will buy a pair.
Whites boots over Nicks...hmm, interesting. I'll have to check them out. I would love to see Rose Anvil cut into a Viberg boot to see how they compare with Whites and Nicks.
Stumbled across this channel a couple months ago, really neat stuff and entertaining. It would be cool to see you cut up some Asolo boots, I have owned a couple of their hiking boots and am curious about their construction.
Get a high quality wallet, belt or MORE in the Rose Anvil shop here - bit.ly/44jXLNu
Where are the Nick's boots?
What boots are you wearing right now?
How bout you do a good thorough video on Red Wing 606
I swore to myself that I wouldn't buy any more boots. I have more than I will ever need. HOWEVER, a collab remake of the Japanese WWII boots may just break me down. They are just too cool!
Yeah I REALLY can’t wait to see that colab!!! The simplicity but incredible design always amazed me and to have a pair would be incredible.
I hope theyll have wide widths!!
agree. dangit. 😬🤪
Agreed.

Probably not so authentic... but me too!
Thanks to you Weston for having 2 of my favorites channels. Thanks to Trenton and Heath and Stridewise and your channels for giving me a better idea and appreaction of mens boots and other things as well. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Looking forward to what you do next year....
Glad you mentioned Palladium. They have an interesting French military history and I've owned pairs for years. They are cozy, cheap, and are great replacements for converse high tops.
I like to refer to them as "offroad converse". Lol
The old pairs are awesome, try a new ones they are nothing like old ones quality went way down!

Been a great year Weston! Would love to see more JK boots on the channel and see how they stack up vs Nicks, Whites, etc.
Been waiting all year for this video!
A professional no biased opinion.
Awesome that you included wide toe box boots, it's all I can wear with my sasquatch feet.
I bought Redbacks on the strength of your reviews alone and loved them so much that I bought a steel-toed pair for work, absolutely brilliant 👏
Thanks Wes for all you do...
We are all looking forward to everything you give us in 2023...
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year...
I second these sentiments! Thank you for the videos. I have learned a lot. Merry Christmas.
The fact that you still stick with the redbacks are a sign that they are good and comfy; so much you still wear them and not others😊
I’ve been rockin the Thorogood Moc Toe for about a year now. They are absolutely the most comfortable boots I’ve ever owned. Perfect boot for me. (Finish carpenter mostly)👍
Great video!!! Please add some Allen Edmonds boots to your future videos. I'd also like to see dress shoes added.

Been watching rose anvil for awhile now. This channel has helped me become more knowledgeable in my boot/shoe game. Much appreciation.
Whites most definitely… been using the 💨 jumpers for few years now for yard and house work or landscaping and are built well indeed
Merry Christmas Weston and the whole crew at Rose Anvil including Toaster! Thanks for another great year of content.

More value = more better

Salomon Forces XA Forces 8" GTX EN Black is the best boot ever , waterproof , warm , and quality build . i like this boots allot

Thorogoods are super comfortable. The soles they use wear out super fast.

I have thoroughgoods which are so comfy it never mattered what socks I wore but I just got the Whites Perry's which don't have a counter in the heal and I'm getting raw.

I would Love to see you cut open a pair of Wolverine safety toe 6" boots! Everyone on my site wears em.
I remember you saying you would look into the Japanese modern build. I am soooo in on that. Love the channel.
I've worn the same pair of timberlands every day for 3 years and they are on their last leg...definitely need a new pair
Break down some hunting boots!! They’re some of the highest priced boots with the most claims of performance. I’d love to see some of these major brands broken down. Crispi, kenetrek, schnees. Thanks for the awesome content.

I really lik American made heritage type boots. My 8084 IR I use for Harley riding (Road King). 1000 Mile for casual outings.
Seems like so many Seniors wear sneakers, mostly New Balance, and very few boot wearers. Been riding motorcycles, hiking, hunting forever so boots for every situation.
Is there an all around, comfortable, heritage boot style, not brand specific, for the Senior that’s slowing down, not adventuring as
much?
Thanks for all you do😎
Can you please do a series where you compare the big Pacific Northwest brands, or the top 10 highest quality brands?
it's glad to heard that you are working on the Japanese WWII boots, Thanks!
Love this channel. I need new boots that don't cripple my feet and your channel whether I am just interested in seeing boots sliced in half or want information is the best :)
At one point or another you have reviewed almost every one of the big Pacific NW boot makers I would love to see you cut apart a pair of Dayton's and see how they compare.
I actually have a pair of keens that I wear just when I take my kids to disneyland. I've tried many options for walking those 20k steps a day and they feel so good

I would love to see a top 5 worst sneakers. I’m a sucker for the technical spec’s because I’m a nerd. Love the historical boot idea too because I show clips of your vids in my classroom
I actually ended up buying a pair of Redbacks because of you. Nice to see them being so highly rated for comfort.
The JK boots and the origin boots look very similar to me. Before I bought my iron rangers I went back and forth between origin and iron rangers.
Yeaaah. Grant stone is the best value boot. Cheaper than many other higher end brands, but with all leather construction
Hey, we are a big fans of your channel both for boots and sneakers. So can you cut in a half some Diemme boots? Maybe Everest hiking boot... and Happy Holidays!

You should review Nisolo!
Sustainably made with really high quality materials. I own several pairs of them and they’re all class.
Wondering if you've heard of Nisolo? Wife and I bought boots from them - the All-Weather Andres Boot for me and the Go-To City Hiker Boot for her. Mine felt pretty well broken in after wearing twice, and hers were comfortable right out of the box. Wondering if they won't last very long as a result. I'd love to see what's inside.

Merry Christmas Weston, really enjoy your program.
You should do a review on performance boots. Salomon, Lowa, Han Wag... they are quite expensive and it would be interesting to see what is inside and if they also sell just the name or of they are actually worth the price
I can't vouch for their boots, but ecco sneakers have very wide toeboxes and still look very nice IMO. I always go back to them for sneakers, they are so comfortable.
One of my favorite TH-cam channels hands down! 🙌🏻
Nice video! Strange that I watch boot videos, but I'm not the only one lol. I have some Russell Mocassins that I love(Zephyr 2) that I would love your take on.
I've had great luck, in terms of value, with Herman survivor professional boots! The driller boots have stayed very comfortable and kept my feet dry in some very nasty conditions!
Another great and informative video. I also recommend Thorogoods to everyone in my trade.. Merry Christmas Weston to you and your family.
The lems boulder boot is the lightest and most comfortable boot I've ever owned
Just bought a pair of Carolina moc toe work boots after I saw your video dissecting them. I'm very glad I found this channel otherwise I would have spent that $280 on a boot worth 1/2 of the Carolinas price.

I am very curious about the potential collab with the Japanese WWII boots. Loving the collabs!
Because of the Jungle Boot video, I found a pair of size 4.5 (I wear a Ladies size 6C) from an army surplus store. I love them.
Winter boots. Fleece lined like Uggs but not Uggs.
So, I ended up getting the Thursday Desperado in Arizona Adobe & the Thursday Maverick in Anejo for Christmas from the wife. I like them both. The Desperado for an everyday type Western boot & the Maverick is a more dress up and hit the town. They both look great with jeans & chinos but the Maverick’s can go a notch up on the dressy scale to even a suit. I just wish the shafts were a bit slimmer.
Can we get a viberg service boot cut in half soon?
I ❤ my Thorogood boots! Extremely comfortable and the wear so nicely.
I’ve got the 8” Thorogood Moc steel toe boots with the crazy horse leather! They are so comfortable
I'm tempted to try Lems, wish I could afford Whites
If the Jungle boot video was so popular do a followup comparing the origionals to Rothco, Fox, and others. Also how about a cowboy boot comparison of cheaper brands: Dingo, Laredo, Durango?
I normally prefer taller boots but I also love my converse and palladium's. I really hope the repro Japanese boot goes through, I really enjoyed that video and most definitely will buy a pair.
I would like a top 5 brown and top 5 black boot and or normal vs more military style
I love thorogood boots. Glad they get props here.
Whites boots over Nicks...hmm, interesting. I'll have to check them out. I would love to see Rose Anvil cut into a Viberg boot to see how they compare with Whites and Nicks.
Stumbled across this channel a couple months ago, really neat stuff and entertaining. It would be cool to see you cut up some Asolo boots, I have owned a couple of their hiking boots and am curious about their construction.
Great content! Would looove to see an episode on haix firefighter-boots
Japanese boot with Kangaroo leather would be awesome.
I would love if you could did a review of any of the CanadaWest Boots. The moorbys are my favourite and am curious if I have bad taste lol
Irish setter Marshall boot, great for work and looks good in jeans as well
The Lems boulder boot look really nice! Thx
You should do Oliberte! They are a good looking boot with not a ton of hype.
