I love that you've just got more and more stuff all the time that you've had a few years. Much cooler to see it used than new. Keep it up!! Gogogogogo!
I’m glad the video was helpful! The jacket is from a company called Wellen…lots of great pieces prf.hn/l/G9aQ4bz Thanks so much for checking out the video!
I'd love to see a longer video on your vachetta high tops, not too may I can see online. I like the look of the patina you are getting on them. I was convinced I wanted a pair of the Cacao sneakers, but after seeing this video, I might change my mind...
@@bootsjeansandtheoddwatch Can take plenty of outdoor footage? It’s so hard to tell what the exact colour of those shoes are. On the Thursday website they look almost pink!
Great review! I have their white sneakers and three pairs of their boots and have a pair of the cacao low tops on the way... and now I want a pair of their high tops! I'll see how I go with the cacao low tops and might mix it up with a pair of high tops in coffee. Keep up the great content!
I've been wanting to purchase at least a couple of Thursday's sneakers for a couple of months now, but since i am from México, the fact that i would have to add taxes and duties on top of delivery has stoped me until now. I love how these look so y may just pull the trigger and hope i get my size right in the first try haha. Always a pleasure to hear your toughts on this products man.
Great video, thanks. I ended up getting a low top version of the cacao ones but also want a high top in the vachetta. My problem is, how should I style them? I noticed that the shirt jacket you were wearing in the video goes well with them. Can you provide a link to where you purchased that, who made it and what is it called? Thanks!
It's a Wellen chore coat and it's currently on sale! Here it is prf.hn/l/41lkPLA ...the sizes are limited right now but there are other colours with different sizes. There are a bunch of other brands on the Huckberry site too if you surf around. Thanks for checking out the video!
I'm a 10.5 Wide in converse all stars but can squeeze into a 10.5 in 70s however the toe box is tighter than I'd like. Do you think I could get away with a pair of these or will the just be too narrow? (No wide offerings in high tops.) Thanks!
To be honest I think they'll be too narrow for you. A 9.5 in these feels the same as a 9 chuck 70, so I guess you could try going with a size 11 but without being able to try them on in person sizing can be a gamble!
I never liked the look of Vachettas on the website, but they look great worn in, I was thinking of the Cacaos (that's why I found this video) but now I'm leaning towards the Vachettas
Great review, thanks for doing it! I just picked up the same pair of waxed cacao's and I generally like them....except they are incredibly difficult to put on! They fit comfortably when they're on, but squeezing into them takes some doing. Unfortunately, thinking I might have to return them because of that. Have you had a similar experience?
I haven’t had that issue but I do find I have to take the laces out of the top hole to loosen them when I put them on then relace the top hole once they’re on.
I want to switch from vans sk8-hi to these, would you endorse that idea. Mostly just wear vans on my motorcycle, weight training and at the grocery store. Nothing to vigorous, mainly chores.
Just subscribed to your channel, really enjoy your reviews...to the point! Question for you. I'm looking at purchasing a pair of the sneakers from Thursday and ironically I was choosing between the Cacao and the Vechetta when I came upon your review. I'm only getting one and if you had to choose only one of them that best went with your wardrobe which would it be? My wardrobe is very similar to yours. Jeans, Chinos, T-shirts and some button down shirts.
I really appreciate that, thank you! If I could only have one it would be an easy choice with the cacao. Definitely more versatile for day to day use and goes with absolutely everything 👍
@@bootsjeansandtheoddwatch Thanks! That was honestly my favorite. Keep up the great reviews. The Naked and Famous sizing videos were also extremely helpful.
I just got 2 pairs of the Thursday high tops. I’m wearing the Old English today (the other cacao which I haven’t worn yet). Look very nice, but let me tell you…these things are absolute torture on my feet. Feels like thin sheet metal wrapped around my feet, not pliable leather. Based on these I don’t see how anyone in their right mind could think these are comfortable sneakers. I haven’t worn shoes this uncomfortable in eons. I did order my usual size for sneakers but had to return for half size up which are a better normal fit, but they are sheer bloody hell. My feet are throbbing and feel on fire. Compare this to Thursday Major boots which were so comfortable and no break in at all.
I love that you've just got more and more stuff all the time that you've had a few years. Much cooler to see it used than new. Keep it up!! Gogogogogo!
Always good to see how this stuff holds up! I’ll keep pulling stuff out of the closet and chatting about it!
Thanks for the detailed review. What jacket / sweater are you wearing?

I keep meaning to do the update/cleaning and conditioning video on the Vachetta…need to get on that! Thanks for the reminder!
@@bootsjeansandtheoddwatch Can take plenty of outdoor footage? It’s so hard to tell what the exact colour of those shoes are. On the Thursday website they look almost pink!
Both great-looking options. Hard to choose between the two!
Agreed! So I went with both haha

If only there was a way to just get them right from the factory!
@@bootsjeansandtheoddwatch Yep, tell me about it!! it would make my life... well not my life but my footwear shopping so much easier.

Tough choice! I hope the video was helpful!
Hey man would you say these are as low to the ground as standard (not 70s) chuck taylors or do they have a little more height to them?
@@welshrecon they have a little more height I’d say. Probably between a classic chuck and a 70 if I had to estimate
@@bootsjeansandtheoddwatch great thanks for the reply mate.

Definitely! I’ve had sk8-his as well and prefer these. I like the leather and seeing how it ages over time 👍
Love these! Do you know of a shoe brand like this that can be resoled?
Sorry I’m not sure about resoleable sneakers, that’s a great question though!
Where did you get that jeans with red inside? What brand? See 1:51
Naked and Famous! From a long time ago but there might be some floating around the internet 🤞

I’m got a pair of seconds in my usual sneaker sizes and they’re too small. I regret not seeing this video first.
Ah darn!
Good video, it's a beautiful piece. Seems like a nice compromise between a. boot and a runner.
Thanks!
The comfort of chucks? Theyre not comfortable at sll. And theyre the most effective foot stinkifier known.
I try to use comparisons that most people will have a frame of reference for…based on your experience I don’t think you’d find these comfortable 😆
@@bootsjeansandtheoddwatch are you saying that they bring the funk?
@@StrangersIteDomum lol I haven't been accused of bringing the funk while wearing them
Thanks gorgeous the sizing advice….
@@carvinylizbeth5110 hope it was helpful!
Excellent sizing advice here for this model. Would have saved me some hassle had I taken it.
Thanks!
did you get the wide fit?
No, at the time they only had standard width but I’d love to try the wide to see what they’re like!
Your channel is under-subbed. Great video, and I love that you review products that you’ve actually used! Novel idea, I know. ;)
I really appreciate the kind words! Thank you!

That is so strange, mine have been super comfortable in terms of the leather on my feet! Just not a ton of support/cushion underfoot. That must suck!
Gotta love the little hipsters lol
As a middle aged dad that almost feels like a compliment 😂
