910 is steep for some sneakers TBH, less crazy than some Nike stuff, but still...
But thanks for all the great work!
@@thewizardsofthezoo5376 i was hoping we can get like 10-15% discount
Cutting in half was painful to watch.
@@thewizardsofthezoo5376 that's right its great to see that quality of workmanship, but most of us out there will never afford something like this. But see were the money go's
@@bossman7278 I bought some whites, they are truly next level and will probably survive me, but sneakers, I will go through it like a freight train, a 1 G is steep, at that point Goral is more appropriated and still very good quality.
For the summer I like mocassins, as in boating shoes, after a couple of years they wrap to you feet like a second skin, Barbour are nice to wear, light and resistant, not for walking miles though because you eat the sole.
But you are right, these are really priced on the deep end of the pool for normal people.
Cool to see something that is expensive because of the craftsmanship that goes into it rather than expensive because of a logo
Yes, amazing materials and great craftsmanship in a Western country where people are paid a fair living wage. That stuff matters.
Back when he was cutting up Yeezy shoes and talking about how expensive they were, I was thinking those were expensive just because some rapper said they should be. The shoes looked like garbage. These are high art.
Good point.
All things should be worth the exact time put into making them like a new currency system.
@@m.richards6947 the Soviet Union and many other countries tried that already. Things are ultimately worth what people are willing to pay for them. For some people that’s paying for superior materials and craftsmanship; for others it’s paying for a label. When people are free to make choices, some people will make dumb ones.
in a world of fast fashion, seeing this being cut in half kinda hurts
To make a cake you have to break an egg.
@@sinsyderk bud
This is the unfortunate side of this channel. But you can't do it any other way. IMO, this is justified, because it exposes bad practices and elevates good ones, like this company's quality product.
You'd never see these normally. They wouldn't show it so casually, and you can't have this kind of detail visible from all the companies around the world.
There's one more thing. It may not seem like it now, you may not see it such, but... this has invaluable historic value. In the future, provided these videos survive, people can go back and see these things.
Again, IMO, this is worth it.
Agreed, dissecting this sneaker was 'painful' 😌
If we glued that together with hit glue it would still be better than most shoes I ever had 😂
Even if I can't afford those, it's nice to know someone still cares about making REAL premium shoes, and not just putting the Gucci logo on some garbage shoes.
Agreed. The opposite of compressed shit with a diamond on it.
Well, I'll take my classic Gucci horsebit loafer over this anytime, and it's a lot cheaper too. I definitely appreciate these CN sneakers, just not my style. For a cordovan sneaker, I like Allen Edmond's Park Avenue Oxford sneaker in terms of style, roughly the same price as CN, same source of cordovan.
It's a smart shoe but I'd much rather have my AF1 thanks cheaper and comfortable
Well, most "companies" that produce high-quality shoes are small, family-owned and usually make those shoes only on order and on measure, with price STARTING on $1500
@@SK9blitzif nike put this much effort into an air force 1 they'd charge 4 grand per pair 😂😂😂😂😂
‘And now unfortunately’ probably the first time I’ve actually seen him not wanting to destroy a piece of foot work just for science. That’s what I call respect for a shoemaker and his craft.
“That’s not made up, that’s a legitimate sentence” 😂 I laughed a lot at that.
Being from the UK I love hearing your thoughts on our shoes and boots. I’m sure it helps our growing shoe industry. Thank you.
@@FiveDORRA I’m not sure I agree. What about Alfred Sargent, Cheaney, Church's, Crockett & Jones, Edward Green, Foster & Son, Gaziano & Girling, George Cleverley, Grenson, John Lobb, Loake 1880, New & Lingwood, Sanders, and Tricker's.
I’m sure I’ve missed a few, but you get the idea.
@@FiveDORRA My man really said that without actually doing research into the number of manufacturers that still make footwear in Northampton
Well yall do it the best! Only thing you cant do is PNW boots.
@@bradlarrison191 yes, that’s very true. I don’t think we could do them as well as you guys.
@@bradlarrison191 The Canadians do Viberg. Canada = far West Northampton. ;)
Using cordovan is absolutely insane. Another important thing is how soft it is for its durability, as well as its slickness. It doesn't crease or bunch, and I do archery. The top finger tabs (something to protect your fingers when you hold the string) are all from cordovan leather, and for one of them, which is probably about 2 inches of leather and some metal fixtures, it will run you about £90. A shoe made from just one piece is absolutely ridiculous, and considering the prices of high end shoes, that price makes complete sense. Completely out of my price range but wow. Anyone that can afford it will 100% not be disappointed by that leather quality, and it'll be incredibly durable.
For reference, pros shoot thousands of arrows off one tab, which is a tiny contact surface, consistently holding back 40lbs, to release as gently as possible, meaning that that string will be constantly rubbing and wearing that leather. This is known as one of the highest quality leathers for a good reason.
Very interesting... I was curious other uses for this leather. That seems to be a perfect testament to its durability.
Cool.
A shell cordovan of about 2.6 square feet will cost about 200 euro (Maryam) For 2 whole cut shoes you need two of them. That still leaves a price tag of 500 euro for the production of very simple and not very pretty sneakers. Using a rediculously over the top material to cover up the rediculously over the top price for the production of them. O, and from the left over scraps alone a bunch of archery finger tabs can be made. A far better use where material properties meet actual needs.
@@renatoetzi That makes sense if you ignore the other materials used for the sneaker, the cost of labour to manufacture and hand sew shoes, the cost of energy to run a factory, insurance, local taxes for the factory, maintenance of the factory, the cost of running and maintaining a website, internal IT costs for finance and accounting, auditor costs, packaging, customer service costs and free shipping. I may have missed some things.....
@@UnknownUser-rb9pd The only thing I think you missed is I don't feel it is also unreasonable for the company to actually make a profit at the end of it all ?
I was personally in the Crown Northampton shop two weeks ago and Chris told me about Rose Anvil and this video. Chris was very positive and complimentary towards Rose Anvil. Through Rose Anvil I heard of Crown and went to visit last year. Chris is an awesome, very attentive guy, and loves shoes. I would recommend these shoes. Period. I agree with Rose Anvil and its assessment. Best. Shoes.
100% agree. I have multiple pairs of Crown Northamptons in different leather types (no Cordovans though), and they are absolutely top notch. Customer service is also second to none, so can highly recommend trying them out! With a good care routine, these shoes will last much longer than low-quality, mass-produced stuff, while looking better as well.
I can’t afford the Horween right now. But are the chromexcel good? I would love me a blue pair :)
I have a pair of brown Horween Chromexcels in the Overstone Derby design (which I feel is the “cleanest”) and they are ace 👌🏻 Very easy to care for with the right products and they look fantastic. Blue is a nice choice also :)
There is an XL version as well. What is the difference?
I met Chris at the Crown N.H. factory in May (2023), and I've never been more impressed by any shoe company or shoe factory than Crown Northampton. It truly was both an inspirational and unforgettable experience. P.S. He mentioned they were making these shoes for the Rose A. channel so I was glad to see this video: thank you!
Sounds like a real exaggeration. What about it was an "unforgettable and inspirational experience"?
Do I need these? No. Would I feel odd wearing them? Yes. Do they fit my extremely casual dress style? No. Would I be too afraid to to wear them? Yes. But I value excellence and I want them so damn much!
Highly relevant thoughts.
I feel exactly the same as this.
I bought a pair of shoes from Crown Northampton after watching your last video on them, and they quickly became my favorite pair of shoes. I mean, I wear them EVERYDAY. They are not only incredible for their quality, but thier customer service is the best I have ever recieved. I plan on buying a different style from this brand in the near future. Thanks for what you do!
I love Crown Northhampton's attention to detail. Like the laces. They lace using the over under method and the left shoe is always perfectly mirrored to the right shoe. For example, when the laces cross, the right shoe has the right lace overlap the left lace. The left shoe is reversed, creating a mirror effect. It's such a tiny detail, but satisfies my OCD.
I mean you can do this yourself
@@_bats_are you crazy? My father was killed relacing his shoes. Not to be trifled with.
@@Matthew-tr6io LMAO! I mean, sorry for your loss..
Yes you can do it yourself, but the fact the company pays attention to this detail makes you think about the attention to detail and care they spend building the rest of the shoes. I for one like it!
@@hellokenHuh? Cheap sneakers are laced like this all the time? What are you talking about?
These make me so happy. Watching basically perfectly made products be dissected and just seeing the maximum performance is awesome
I grew up skateboarding, so quality footwear was really skewed in the big scheme of leathers. Once I started needing dress shoes and boots, I quickly realized the importance of full grain leather. Seeing this cut open hurt! What an absolute beauty of a midtop sneaker. Even seeing a full grain skate shoe for $120-$150 is too expensive for most. Imagine these being an after skate or full on go-to formal sneaker. $910 isn’t so crazy when low quality, plastic-infused top grain leather SB Dunks and Jordan 1s go for hundreds to thousands of dollars.
That’s heartbreaking to watch you cut them in half but it’s great to see the craftsmanship and everything that goes into making these trainers
Insanely beautiful shoes! I am glad that quality footwear is still made in Europe too.
I love your excitement and passion when explaining the material and process of making this shoe
R.M. Williams boots use one piece of leather on their boots! Australian born and made, hope to see a pair on here one day! You’ll be impressed with Aussie handmade boots!
Fascinating video. If only we had a Rose Anvil for all of the other things that matter on a day to day level. Trousers, socks, glasses and pocket knives. Motorcycles and kitchen bins. Breeds of tropical fish and vacuum cleaners..
There are channels for all these things. I've watched many on tropical fish but my favorite are the vacuum cleaner channels.
Join us next time as we cut a clown fish in half!
@@notthatproud7453 Ha! :)
@@davidhunternyc1 Sadly they are not run by Weston Kay.
@@notthatproud7453 🤣
I agree that this might have been the most painful to watch get cut. After that passionate explanation of the shoe how could it not be.
I’ve never been sad to see you cut a pair of shoes or boots. That is until these. So beautiful.
would you be interested in cutting a pair of Visvim sneakers? I have a pair of Foley Folks that don't fit me. They are built to be resoled, supposedly hand made, supposedly top tier leather, etc. More than happy to donate to the site for a fun video of a brand you've never featured!
Don't feel bad about "destroying" these shoes, you might as well donate them to (or make) a museum. I think seeing how things are made is just as valuable as the finished product.
They are literally the One Piece of sneakers! I would say for everything that goes into the shoe, it’s a fair price. Good to see actual quality made shoes in the UK is still happening!
Well, I started this video not expecting my mind would be blown at what goes into these shoes. Ended the video with my mind blown at what goes into these shoes. Incredible stuff.
That was next level. So much leather knowledge and HISTORY!!! More please
I got a pair of IC Berlin glasses for a little over $1000. They are screwless and made of surgical steel. Almost six years later, they look exactly like the day I bought them. Twice they have come apart and I just clicked them back into place effortlessly. These shoes may be next on my list. When you wear things, you add value to them.
The quality craftsmanship and the fact that it's made in Europe adds so much to the price!
Why does manufacturing in Europe change the price?
Made in the UK, not Europe. Technically it’s is, but nobody in the UK will say that. The UK isn’t a Socialist dump where borders do not exist and you are losing you culture and countries.
Made in England.
@@SPNKr16 where is England?
What continent?
Love this type of Heritage and superior craftsmanship brand. It’s way beyond my pocket but love to see quality brands still in existence.
This video was absolutely epic. I don't even like sneakers but i've decided that I love those shoes in every possible way.
When you said “no creasing” I had to wonder - what would it be like to recreate a pair of Nike AJ1s or AF1s using these same level of materials and methods? A Rose Anvil challenge, perhaps?
I've seen people make those on Instagram
It would be the most ambitious rose anvil builds project requiring 2-3 sponsors
Way too expensive to be practical
@@oxfordbambooshootify its only 400 dollars in leather and im sure hes making way more than that per video
Dana just got a pair of air force 1 from a leather master from Mexico. Its dyed red python and ostrich leather they are mad crazy sick
I enjoy and appreciate your honesty. Your channel is probably the only channel where the entire shoe gets dissected; that allows us to understand better the anatomy and quality we should look for.
I'm happy to know excellent sneakers in durable leather made by hand are still with us.
We lose so much knowledge when generaltionaly companies go out of business. Sure they could write it down but it not that easy.
Excellent video thanks!
I have learned so much from your videos. This video, in particular, is really good. Keep up the great work.
I think $910 is a fair price, given the quality of the materials, the difficulty of making, and the provenance. I'd pay for it, but in this case, it's not a style I like.
I can buy a similar style for good quality for about 90 bucks from Beckett Simonon and spend the rest on a great pair or pairs of boots
Honestly I can't get myself to like the design, no matter how much I look at them. I think they're weird looking, too shiny and smooth, the tongue goes down too low and there's no interesting seams or details to make them look like a sneaker at all. Also the laces are so close together. I appreciate the workmanship but it's a no for me 🙈
@@onixtheoneI argee with everything you say except when you say you can get quality for $90. You can’t get a shoe to compare in quality to this one for $90 man
@@Lexidezi225the point is why do you want next level quality on sneakers? Sneakers are meant to be casual comfortable shoes that go with more relaxed outfits.
Invest that money on high end dress shoes or boots - footwear where the supreme quality is actually functional.
Honestly, crown is the only high end sneaker maker for me, since others do not even have the option for wider feet. Very happy owner of 2 pairs from them.
Nice, which ones do you have?
Curious about the width, but also the toe curvature. I’ve been rehabbing my toes and I’m wondering about the width of the toe box in the wider sizes. If you can share anything, much obliged.
I'll never buy shoes like this, but people trying to make the best of anything is always entertaining.
This video was ridiculously good, very informative, very fun to watch. Awesome job.
It hurts the soul to watch Rose Anvil and ProjectFarm destroy nice things. Brings a single tear to my eye.
So hard to watch these get cut haha!
Yeah it was brutal. :(
Excellent vid as always. Bucket list shoe goals right here!!!
Wow, Great explanation of all the work involved in a great pair of shoe's
I wouldn’t have blamed you if you didn’t cut these in half. I was sold on the quality before you cut them.
I'm struggling to justify that much on shoes let alone dream about cutting them open 😂 But it is informative and educational seeing exactly what they're made out of and where (if any) corners have been cut so you get a better idea on how it will fare in the long run
If you need a good dress sneaker for work that will last years. It's definitely justified.
Shoes are important for a lot of reasons. Such as, being perceived properly, foot health, back health, general comfort, etc.
It's much more justifiable to spend big money on shoes opposed to something like a shirt.
@@chaytonhurlow840 You can cheap out on many things, shoes should never be one of them
@@applejuice9468yea this is my big thing in life, never cheap out on anything that plays a role in keeping you in touch with the ground. Tires, bindings,shoes etc.
I’m so glad you had the chance to do this for all of us
You should analyze $70-$300 sneakers and skate shoes and break down their construction for durability and comfort.
I have shoes that are reminescent of these from a strange German shoe company called Trippen. They are not seamless but the seams are turned outwards and are placed very well in pretty "novel" places. They really have formed themselves instead of creasing at all. It's only one layer of leather, nothing inside at all. I have had them for several years and I love them. They show no signs of wear except the original shoelaces just gave up.
I think they cost me $130 at an outlet so $1000 for a pair of shoes feels pretty extreme, even if it's a very good pair.
Crazy people pay thousands for sh!t quality shoes everyday in America. This one for a thousand sounds worth it.
As a Nike fanboy, I still love this channel. That was an absolutely fascinating video. Thank you. I have to be honest, I don’t like the look of the shoe, but appreciate the workmanship.
These have the vibe of those really ugly KD6 lifestyle shoes.
really appreciate the craftsmanship of Crown Nothampton.
I felt pain tear through my very soul as you cut those in half. Such beautiful shoes! Also wonderful job on your presentation about the company’s history; can you give us some details on how you’re making that?
I have 2 pairs of Crown sneakers, the Abington hi tops in black & white toe cap, and the upton wholecut white/white. They're awesome! For the quality and attention to detail its hard to match for the price. Dress them up or down they go with almost everything, I've worn the hi tops with casual suits. A minor compliant, the upton's came with ridiculously short laces that I needed to replace - I have a high arch feet and tend to bulge out of the top of shoes, probably should have gone with the "wide" fitting. I also love knowing that when the soles wear out, I can send them back to be replaced.
Nahh! Those shoes don't even scrape the bottom of the *quality* that are Yeezy shoes. Because Kanye is never wrong and he said they were the best shoes ever. Right guys?
I have a pair of vintage Florsheim shell cordovan longwings that were restored and I love them. Been researching cordovan sneakers so this video release is great timing
They actually look really good too and that’s also important
As a sneakerhead this is not a type of shoe I had considered before. After watching the first video on these shoes I'm interested. Although expensive, you get a really good quality product and I could see a shoe like this literally lasting me a lifetime. Definitely something I will consider now next time I need to buy a more formal type of shoe. Cheers for the detailed info too. Best sneaker videos on RUclips by far
Hey man! These are that expensive because made of Horween Shell Cordovan. I have 2 pairs of Crown Northampton sneakers made of different leathers:
- Crown Northampton Upton Wholecut - Horween green chromexcel
- Crown Northampton Upton Wholecut Essex - Horween natural Essex
Both are muuuuch cheaper than shell but look same nice and feel veeery comfy. I never regretted a second I had bought them all. I do recommend them.
Cheers!
There are now a bunch of direct-to-consumer leather shoes and boots manufacturers in India that are absolutely outstanding in terms of style, construction and materials .... at literally 20% of the cost of the UK / US. Would be really interesting to benchmark those to these global brands.
Agreed, thanks to your dissection and the cross-section view.
The Crown sneaker is incredibly well made and with the finest processed natural materials.
I'm curious if Crown Northampton could make a totally 100%‐seamless (whole-cut) example without the heel-counter join using the same Shell Cordovan skin?
The craftmanship, process and its material. This is one the best generational sneaker I've ever seen.
damn... If I have to chance to own it. 🙏
Most painful yet interesting cut you've done yet!
I have 2 problems with them and I know you can’t disagree because they’re gripes you usually bring up. The foam and the cork. Foam has no place in a $910 shoe. The foam will wear out of a few months and serves no purpose other than initial comfort. The cork, while being a relatively decent addition to the average shoe is still inferior to another piece of leather in its place. After significant wear the cork is pushed around and gaps are made making them less comfortable and not as long term of an option. It’s objectively a great shoe but it’s not as good as it could be.
third problem: it's ugly.
I agree with you on the foam my dude, but maybe you should reevaluate cork. It is lighter than leather, antimicrobial, and the only natural solid which when compressed on one side, does not increase in volume on the other. When a sole is thicc like this sneaker ya gotta slap some cork in there. A full leather insole is only ever comfy on hardbottom shoes in my opinion 😊. I agree with your point though, these sneakers shouldn't've did that foam bit.
@@Bawnana The foam is just in the removable insole. If that starts wearing out, you can just get new ones. Takes zero work.
As a cobbler, I agree with your points that other superior meterials could be used instead, especially the foam and how true, cork can eventually break up to a point where it causes discomfort.
I have mixed feelings about cork. On a shoe, rather than a boot, I really prefer a lighter material than leather. However, you are correct that in terms of wear, cork will not last as long and is inferior to leather.
I believe the foam is removable.
Thanks for this video, as somebody strugling to find high quality informal shoes, this is a brand i will look into.. thanks again and keep up with the amazing job.
These were actually really cool. Thanks for opening up my eyes to Crown!
That's a whole lot of money to pay just to have your feet look like a pair of giant bell-ends.
I did lol at this.
but it aint drip tho
@@ponderingspirit yeah but are they drip tho
This is my fav sneaker content. I watch your vids from when you had 100k ❤️
These really are a first class product and Crown is a lovely company to deal with too……🇬🇧
That is one ugly "sneaker". Id rather wear a Walmart shoe before I wear that. Why didn't they make it look nicer. What a waste
I disagree with it being the perfect sneaker, because while it might get leatherheads crazy, I'm not sure it's winning any style points outside of that crowd.
The video sponsor disagrees
@@DerekBradPhotography the sponsor is literally the manufacturer of the shoe.
@@dannytu9360 😂 that was my point. I made a comment post about this earlier
I think it looks awesome, and I'm neither a 'leatherhead' or a sneaker fanatic. And lets be real: sneaker fanatics are actually brain damaged. The stuff they like is comically terrible.
Fanboys Will agree with everything rose says,
if he says Lacoste is his favourite everyone commenting will suddenly claim they love Lacoste shoes ,
I have a pair of Crowns, and love them! I absolutely agree with your conclusions!
Damn this shoe is legitimately a work of art.. such a precise and timeless look that clearly only a master craftsmen could assemble. Truly the perfect shoe
While the quality is top notch, the aesthetics aren't up to par. They're kind of ugly. Work on the silhouette and lines of the shoe a bit more. Those things look like marching band shoes mixed with an old church shoe. So they're still not a perfect shoe. Appeal is a big component of footwear too. They can be improved upon.
They’re ugly
And overpriced, exotic leather- whatever…
Maybe, but when you can get a pair of plastic Nikes for $200 it doesn’t seem as insane. I mean I’d never buy them, but if I were independently wealthy I might
its what the British do best ,attention to detail and finest craftsmanship possible
Only heard about these this week 2nd time now. Definitely on my get list
its not perfect if it looks like 💩 and costs a fortune
Exactly, shoes that are this expensive have to look good and be super comfortable,
I'm sure some hipsters Will lie to themselves And claim these look amazing and give us a history lesson on shoes
The qualities of Quality are uncompromising workmanship, superior materials, stellar design, and flawless function. it is forever a joy when the striving kisses perfection.
These are beautiful!
You should do a series ona loafers considering they're so prevalent in fasion atm
ok but its ugly sir
Amazing to see traditional shoemaking techniques being resurrected. I wanted to cry when I saw that cordovan being cut...😭
Hopefully you can do a review on John Lobb and/or Edward Green some day. Or do a comparison between the Ferragamo studio, mainline and Tramezza. Fabulous work you are doing!
Would the cork eventually break apart and fall into where it spans the gaps of the rubber sole? Seems like it would cause stress points where the cork touches the rubber vs. the cavities.
I have three pairs of handmade shoes from Northampton, there's no substitute for craft, quality and materials. These look simply beautiful.
Nice video! Will love to see your review on their desert boot/shoes.
What a piece of art 🫰i wish i could afford this. 😵
I love watching this. Very informative. Subbed
Love these videos! I met you at the Charley Crocket concert but I forgot to see what boots you were rocking😂. Keep it going with the videos!
Super cool! I wish I could afford it but I'm not expecting the price to come down because of it's high level of craftsmanship. I'll just admire them from afar as celebrities treat themselves to the finest things.
Great seeing something different and getting to appreciate the amazing quality and story. In terms of other sneakers it would be nice to see on this channel are diadora made in Italy, n9000 for example, to see how much better the leather quality is when compared to Nike, new balance etc.
Having NB made in UK and Diadora made in Italia as well as famous Northampton dress shoes, I can tell the european sneakers are well above their asian cousins.
Both in material and craftmanship.
The QC is better too, so is the wearing experience.
However, they are not comparable to the finest dress shoes.
The way your shirt folds, it often looks like it says "Lucky Lice Pizza." Delicious!
Seriously, I dig your channel a lot! Thanks for the fun and information!
Your opinion is everything! Even though they are the sponsor, I believe you would give an honest opinion! You have in the past!
I didn’t know Horween is considered one of the best.
Love their leather on the products from Nomad.
Phone cases, watch straps, etc.
Love that as more of a desert boot with desert boot sole. Would be even more perfect. Love the upper and insole
Great job on the history of company!
Cool shoe thanks for Ur information
Just wondering if these r true to size
I'm usually a size 8 US. Should I go up a size for these due to the narrow toe box.
I like it. Would totally buy a pair. Especially since the other colors are almost half priced
I want to see you touring tanneries seong their processes and shoe factories. You chatting to one of the skilled artisans about rolling those french seams.
Id love to see you do oxford dress shoes, such as allen edmonds, carminas, or higher end brands
I like how the highest quality sneaker looks like it's off the shelf from the 1800s. I'd buy a pair if I win the lottery
story teller and history always help to hype the price
What would you recommend for a work boot that will last hiking and yard work an mining? thk u
