I really like this boot. Dont own one though. But I would wear waterproof socks with it for sure. The advantage to this boot. It can dry out quickly. Keeping your feet dry. If they do get wet. Have an extra dry pair ready to go. They call it a hunter. But its really a trail moccasin. I would expect germans and austrians to like this boot. They like to go on long hikes. They dont walk slow. The older men dont like heavy boots on a volkswalk.
I was very glad to see those insoles that you offer - however I would absolutely LOVE to find insoles like those that came in a pair of Snipe-branded casual boots that were felt on one side and leather on the other - you could flip them over based on the outside temperature or just your preference. I picked those shoes up probably 15 years ago on a trip to Germany to visit relatives, they were made in Portugal. The style I have are no longer available but Snipe still has a German website that carries other models, including some barefoot styles.
Guys, you swapped the axis in the graph at 12:40. If you are saying that the first couple hundred dollars give the highest jump in quality, "Quality" should be in the X-axis and "Quality" in the Y-axis.
Please cut some Rick Owens shoes in half, I'm really interested to see what's in them, especially as a lot of people say Rick Owens leather is really good!
I agree too, I am specially interested in the construction quality, leather could be as good as it gets, but if they are poorly manufactured they are not worthy
@@inflamesnightrage from my personal experience it’s just a hollow TPU sole that’s half stiched onto to the upper. The rubber wears away like an eraser 🤦🏽♂️
I own a pair of Russell PH’s and you absolutely described them as accurately as anyone ever has. Sold as a boot, but not even close to a boot. It’s like a Converse Chuck Taylor high top being compared with all the Air Jordan’s out there, look similar, but the feel is worlds apart.
The graph is backwards! It’s saying an initial increase in price reflects little in quality improvement. Price should be on the X axis, and quality on the Y.
@@TheMIghtyElmo true, BUT, the cross section for the Journeyman black label chelsea isnt the production boot, the production is a single piece of leather, and the cross section clearly has a seem at the elastic. I wanna believe thursday is honest as ive owned two pairs of their boots, but the shoe industry is full of liars and marketing fluff. Edit: maybe im just dumb though and the seam is for the interior liners who knows lol, gotta cut one in half
Purchased a pair of Russell Moccasin Backcountry boots based on your previous video. They are in fact the most comfortable shoe or boot I’ve ever worn. It’s a shame the video does not have more views, but I’m sure I’m not the only one who became a RM customer based on watching it. Hat tip to RM, and to Rose Anvil for taking to the time to explain and demonstrate their quality.
@@Pillsbury666 Im an 11D Brannock and got an 11.5D Gokey. I find they run small, esp compared to PNW boots that run big. But I think true mocs are supposed to fit snugger, hence maybe running small. Then again, Russell’s run true or 1/2 size big so go figure!! I had to put an insole in My 11D Russell’s.
Always incredible! I get my Nick's custom lace up in about 6 months.. Out that's when they will start construction! Super stoked! I'll be getting some boot breakers soon
When the channel reaches 1M I'd like to see the Air Jordan 1 Dior. I think it'd be interesting to know the leather quality in that pair of sneakers and if they are worth the 2000 retail price
would love to see some winter stuff next. a lot of it is synthetic materials (which is fine considering that places use salt and gravel and such to deal with ice and snow), but I'd love to see what those vibram ice+ outsoles are made of, as well as some hiking boot companies offering "winter" rubber compounds. things like the merrell coldpack thermo moc high (hey some crossover!), as well as the moab thermo (ice+ vs plain rubber). similarly the keen revel/anchorage, salomon toundra, etc etc from the usual supsect hiking boot makers, and of course some baffin/sorel/kammik etc for the extreme winter category.
@@petersimeone3491 Custom ones have a bit thicker innersole (4 vs 3.5 mm) and heel counter (2.8 vs 2.5 mm), steel vs nylon shank, different midsole, different leather and reinforcements. It's those 80/20 with the custom ones having extra % of toughness. Close to 3 years waiting though...
Russell Moccasins should reprice these. There is no way this is worth more than their other flagship boots, especially when they come with less structural components. I have a pair of their Nochaway Cavaliers (limited - $775), and there is no way these should be priced just $25 less, all things considered. MAYBE $550-600 range, at most, and that’s purely out of respect for the labor.
*These boots awesome!! I'd love a pair if I can afford them lol 😅🤣🤣! It's also customizable on their website which is really cool! For a future video it would be cool to see the Challenger boot by Thursday! Yes I know they have a photo of ine cut in half on their website. I want to see what Weston has to say about their build.*
These are the boots I want the most, but I am banned by the wife after, 4 custom Jim Greens, 2 JK Buffalo and Redwing moctoes, because of your channel!
I'd love to see you cut Cariuma OCA low sneakers in half. For being $90+ they fall apart super easily and feel pretty cheap. I'd like to know more of what's inside of them that helps them stay super comfy, but ultimately can't seem to help them stay together.
Black Label Thursdays in the Shinki Cordovan leather and some Viberg's to see if they are worth the money. They just started making my pair of boots at Russell. I can't wait to have them. And, this will be your 3rd pair of Russell's that you cut in half. I am now braking in my Thursday Challenger boots in the CF Stead leather. They like a pair of Nicks. Would like to see you do a video on them.
This will get lost in the comments but it's worth a shot. More than a cutting video what would be awesome is a Brannock device education video. I just found out that going off larger arch length size vs foot length being a thing and I'm kind of mind blown. I've been wearing incorrect sizing forever and with the lots of brands I've been gravitating towards recommending to size down it's only worse. FWIW I found out when I went in and got sized and red wing.
People spend more on truck tyres; these last longer and give a better, the most comfortable, all terrain ride. The original adventure sneaker, from before the world turned plastic. Russell Moccasins, much love from the UK.
I just got a pair of Backcountries and I absolutely love them. They’re so comfortable. I’ve already gone on a couple of hikes. I want to get another pair of something from them for daily wear. I’m torn between the Trail Boot and the Traveling Sportsman.
@@chrishildreth9239Yeah I think the Sportsman might be better for daily wear but the I like how the Trail boots are rough outs and they’re probably better for if I want to wear something lighter than the Backcountry to hike in the summer.
I would really like to see some Drew’s logging boots cut in half. I feel like they’re a brand not many people know about and I think that they’re a great product especially when accounting for their quality and price.
My suggestions are either the Asics Gel Kayano, or Scarpa Chimera. I know that Scarpa will not get picked, I just think it would be interesting to see you try to a video about a climbing shoe.
Fun fact: Earl Shaffer, the first person to thru-hike the Appalachian Trail in 1948, did it in a single pair of Russell Birdshooter moc boots. 🥾🥾 0:53 USD 750? Try again. At this moment, these PH's are listed on the Russell Moccasin website for USD 1,065.
With the popularity of these models i would like to see if there is any real difference between the Sambas, Gazelles and Spezials or if Adidas is selling us the same shoe three times. For boot it would be interesting to see the Fear of God LA Hiker, the new Yeezy boot
Please try cutting some Timberland Premium HELCOR 6 Inch boots in half. The helcor leather is scuff proof, fireproof, and waterproof so your knife won't even make a dent on the leather.
for a sneaker id love to see you cut an old running shoe from the 70s, like a nike ld-1000 waffle trainer, or new balance 320/237/327 for a boot id love to see you cut some sort of military boot. doesnt matter which one
Guys, you swapped the axis in the graph in 12:40. If you are saying that the first couple hundred dollars give the highest jump in quality, "Quality" should be in the X-axis and "Quality" in the Y-axis.
Can you do a pair of Ecco Track25 boots? They have been my go to boot for the last 10 years. One pair has Lasted me 5 years. They are made in slovakia i believe.
How about deconstructing some LL Bean Cresta leather hiking boots. Some people in the reviews swear that they’re the best hiking boots, made it Italy, and others in the comments say that they don’t last, sole becomes delaminated from upper way too fast, etc. I even saw one review that said the Vibram outsole lugs are hollow, which would be crappy if true. So many are saying they’re not quite what they used to be. Oh yeah, and the price has gone way up for the product over the years, now retailing for $300 US. Can you please let us all know, especially on the east coast, if these are worth our hard earned $$? Thanks for what you do, it sure is interesting to a lot of us!
Nice review, this is a boot I’ve always wanted but never owned . Don’t know is you cut a pair of White Nomad boots , I would be interested to see how they are constructed. Thanks for sharing
Great presentation of shoes as always. I would like to see some Mountain bike Flat pedal shoes cut. They should also be different enough compared to most shoes. Some kind of 5.10/Adidas Trailcross or the 5.10 OG shoes? Would be really cool to see why their rubber sole is still one of the best rubbers on the marked.
We all know Wes has a crispy pair of Russell’s in the box that he isn’t telling us about ;). I personally want to see a pair of Courteney boots cut in half next. They are the similarly priced and also handmade South African safari version of Russell’s and they come in some WILD game leathers.
I have a pair of Courteney Selous in Cape Buffalo. The most comfortable footwear I have, but the black rubber soles mark tiled floors mercilessly. Quite a bit cheaper than Russells at $330, and 360 stitch down construction.
@@edwardhutt1214 awesome! I don’t think Courteney had indoor floors in mind when creating an African hunting/safari shoe. Yes their base models are cheaper but they have a custom department which rivals Russel prices. I’d love to own a pair and I’d love to see them analyzed on this channel.
If there was a quiz based purely on the construction, looking at the seams on this boot I would know it was made in the USA. Big stitches, less-than-true lines, and simple design.
I've been using a south Korean army surplus boot as a daily driver for months now. I ride a motorcycle to work as a teacher in Cambodia - riding an 80km commute daily. I like these boots. They're comfortable, seem tough, and are incredibly affordable at US$7.50 a pair locally. They also look pretty damned good. Could you slice a pair and see what I'm trusting?
Should compare some Gokeys. Gokey is weird in that it really seems to target old, rich hunters. For whatever reason, they do seem to have broken through into the heritage boot market. I wonder how they compare.
I’d like to see luos jiet and how they compare to Thursday in the 200 category. Also a pair of Bordon and unmarked. Be interested to see how those two compare to their more expensive counterparts
i m still wearing my 20 year old Red Wing Wabashas which where made by Rancourt back in the days. They have been resoled two times. My most comfy boots. I would love to try a pair of these, but shipping and tax to europe are way too expensive and i dont know how sizing should be.

The advantage to this boot. It can dry out quickly. Keeping your feet dry. If they do get wet. Have an extra dry pair ready to go. They call it a hunter. But its really a trail moccasin. I would expect germans and austrians to like this boot. They like to go on long hikes. They dont walk slow. The older men dont like heavy boots on a volkswalk.

Not going to lie, I never had a problem watching you cut other boots...this one was painful as hell.

@@inflamesnightrage from my personal experience it’s just a hollow TPU sole that’s half stiched onto to the upper. The rubber wears away like an eraser 🤦🏽♂️
I had a couple, the leather quality is really good but the overall construction and comfort is quite bad
Make sure it’s a main line and not dark shadow
I own a pair of Russell PH’s and you absolutely described them as accurately as anyone ever has. Sold as a boot, but not even close to a boot. It’s like a Converse Chuck Taylor high top being compared with all the Air Jordan’s out there, look similar, but the feel is worlds apart.

Yeah looooll
100%
I was about to make the same comment! 😂
The new Thursday black label challengers would be cool to see
any black label tbh, just to see if theyre really worth it or cutting corners with an even more expensive boot.
Hero boot would be nice
It's already cut in half on the website.

My heart goes out to you and the boots. I own a pair and I think they are the most comfortable of footwear I own pr ever made.
Really interested in seeing what is in a Visvim boot. For example a Virgil folks in kangaroo leather would be a great cut in half.
seconding this! or any jp makers such as clinch, rolling dub. or even john lofgrens.
You need to cut open a Gokey boot.
They're less expensive than Russell and I'm curious how they compare.
Agree! I have both Gokeys and Russells
@@petersimeone3491 what sizing did you go with on the gokey?

Since Russell makes one boot at a time, ask them to make one boot to replace the one you cut!
Okay, this video reeeaaally has me wanting a pair of these.
Lovely pair of Mocs. Look very comfortable.
Please cut the new Thursday Challenger boot next! Brand new from Thursday
The graphics are next-level on this one.
But one is wrong 12:40
Can you please get a pair or two of Gokey USA boots? the Tipton work boot and their safari boot would be cool.
When you cut boots why don’t you keep the laces. Just wondering.
Made in NH, US Limmer Boots Custom.
Or even the off the shelf Meindl boots that Limmer sells
@@petersimeone3491 Custom ones have a bit thicker innersole (4 vs 3.5 mm) and heel counter (2.8 vs 2.5 mm), steel vs nylon shank, different midsole, different leather and reinforcements.

I see Thursday dropped a new boot....they even cut them in half and posted the pic for your inspection. Did U throw them that idea?? Nice....
Crispi vs. Kenetrek!!!
I have a pair of these and the Backcountry. I can feel the vibram sole lugs especially in city use. I prefer the Backcountry for feel and fit.
Love the boots, the video effects and the review
That bell curve of diminishing returns, is the same in knife collecting.

I would love to see you cut open the Waxi boots from Kommandostore. Genuinely a great value at least in my use, but very different from a normal boot.
I’ve seen so many boots you cut that makes me scream but these not so much.
Hey Weston, let's cut the New Balance Rainier in the OG colorway with the full grain leather and cordura upper!
Hi could you do the limmer boots the custom boots they sell are very heavy duty. I would love to see what they look like on the inside
Yes, would love to see this
You got to do the full grain leather timberland boots I just bought a brown pair they look so cool you can really see the grain in it ..

Kreosote Nail Shank Boots. probably the coolest most over built boot I've ever seen. Would make a great $100,000 milestone!
Your a better man than i am. If it fits me and its something i like or want, theres no way i could cut it in half.

Couldn’t agree more! Give us the top tier, American Moc toe showdown!
I’ve seen many channels being sponsored by Vessi footwear, be interesting to see what they’re actually like cut open.
Even looking at them, I kinda understand why they are so comfortable to wear
Love moccasins
Mocktober idea, get a bunch of boat shoes and do a comparison on them 🤣😅🤣
My suggestions are either the Asics Gel Kayano, or Scarpa Chimera. I know that Scarpa will not get picked, I just think it would be interesting to see you try to a video about a climbing shoe.
I admit, I shed more than a few tears on this one.
You can cut Premiata they are quite expensive for the material and labour
I felt this one, these are my grail boot
Oree NYC makes some cool cordovan leather derbies, which they artificially age up. Would be really cool to see those in the future
Fun fact: Earl Shaffer, the first person to thru-hike the Appalachian Trail in 1948, did it in a single pair of Russell Birdshooter moc boots. 🥾🥾

Thank you for breaking your craftsman's heart to cut in half a boot for my education and entertainment.

I'm interested in the old ones as well! So curious did they change anything
Allen Edmonds. Boot, dress shoe, etc
You deserve to keep that pair of Russell's for yourself!
Our Legacy’s Camion boots are pne of the most popular fashion boots. I’d love to see what’s inside
