I got a pair of Dukes in brown full grain and Cavaliers in grey suede. I’ve had the Dukes for a couple months and wear them a lot. They are a bit clunkier looking than I expected but are extremely comfortable and great for winter wear. The Cavaliers are much sleeker and I love the look. I haven’t had much chance to wear them as they only arrived a week or so ago and I want to wait for better weather, so I can’t comment on the comfort yet. But they look fantastic.
I had the Thursday legend for over a year now and I have been super happy with it! It’s great in the snow and rain and overall it’s a very comfortable boot!
I have a pair of arizona adobe captains and absolutely love them. I ordered a pair of matte black Legends but am seriously concerned about the initial fit. They seem very snug around my foot and the back seems to really pinch in on the back of my heel pretty badly. I'm hesitant to wear them and try to break them in because if they don't give any, I won't be able to return them. I ordered the same size as my captains, but the legends are even tough to get on my foot in the first place. I was really wanting a black boot but was trying to diversify the styling by getting a chelsea style boot. Do the 2 different styles fit differently for you?
Dark olive suede sounds really nice!! I was into the "greens" this winter just gone. Here in Australia its so hard to find suede chelsea's this year. :(
Glad that you made this video. I am really looking forward to your individual review video of the Thursday Legends. Would love to see you revise your ranking of your Thursday boot collection to include the Legend in the list. Also would watch a comparison video between the Blundstone 500/550 and the Thursday Legends.
I think one thing that isn't very commonly explored or explained is that the differences in boot lasts between the Duke and the Legend. I bought the Legend in a recommended 11D (same size as my R&R captains) and the fit on the boot was overly roomy. I then went on to swap it for a 10.5D for the Duke in their popular Dark Olive Suede and found it to be quite snug/cramped in the toe box area. A greater clarity on how these lasts differ would be great or some higher degree of fit consistency
Great review! just wondering how about sizing on the Duke? I wear 11 on sneakers but 9.5 on my Iron Rangers. The problem for me is that I have high arch so sometimes my high arch gives me pain on some models like Blundstones for example.
I have the cavalier and the duke. I don’t have the legend, though. Not really my style and in Tennessee we don’t get massive snows or anything. That being said, my favorite is the duke as well. I think it could be considered the best of both worlds when comparing to the cavalier and legend
I really wish TB should remove that odd piece of leather around the elastic. It looks horrible especially in the black leather. I can’t imagine how it’s saving them money, unless it allows them to use a cheaper elastic. Idk
I was going to get a pair of these but, thanks to this review I've changed my mind. I'd like an everyday type dark brown or chocolate leather Chelsea that isn't suede. These look like they will fall apart in a year.
Just got a pair of Legends in the mail and they are HUGE! Definitely beefier and wider than other Thursday boots which is what I wanted. Problem is they are a half size… maybe even a full size bigger than Captains and definitely a full size bigger than the Cadets. Wish they would get the sizing under control. I wear an 11 in Captains, 11.5 in Cadet and sending the Legends back for a 10.5.
I have the Captains in Arizona Adobe and I sent back a pair in terracotta because I didn’t like how soft the EVA strip was. Leather midsole felt way better to me.
@@leswong7801 yeah honestly, I can’t see myself ordering any of the classic Captains, Presidents, or Dukes. I like my boot to feel like a boot. Won’t say no to the poron though, I don’t mind some comfort while they break in.
@@nikitasavtchenko4418 i on the other hand am a new boot wearer. (used to wearing running shoes all the time) so i am still trying to get used to boots. the poron and eva foam will help my feet a lot to adjust for now. hopefully i adjust quickly ~_~ thanks to your experience i now have a better idea thanks so much!
Thanks so much for the in-depth review, we're happy to hear you love your Chelsea boots🔥

is it good in ice?
I recently picked up the legend falcon and I wore them to a wedding last winter.Will be picking up the Black Cavalier.

So what you’re saying with the weather safe suede is…DON’T GO CHAAAASING WATERFALLS
You just have to make sure you give them a little TLC

Is there any Chelsea boot with same looks as Legend (Matte Black) that can be worn in slightly hotter weather around 32 degrees Celsius?

Thanks for explaining the difference in the style
They should really start releasing wide version of this boots
The sizing on the Legends are so off compared to the Captain... They fit loose and I get so much heel slip.
That's what puts me off Chelseas all together. I have a low instep and without laces I doubt I'd ever get a snug fit.
My man. I must go with the Duke & the Legend. Another great video
I Just bought my first handmade Chelsea boots today!!!! This is a great video! 😁💯 Looking for another one
I love Thursday boots was looking forward to going to the store in nyc boy was i disappointed bad customer service
Great video, greetings from Mexico
Honey, get the kids! New bootspy video just dropped!
Man I really like the look of he matte black Legend Boot.

Wide feet here. One model. One color. One choice.
I also like the Duke a ton. Would be the one I’d get.
id love to see you review the lineup of thursday western boots!
Another good video 👍🏾

How much the black legend weigh?
They come in WIDE! Another choice outside of AE.
Does the DuraEVA Comfort Strip feel that much different from the legend that doesn't have it?
I have the Captains in Arizona Adobe and I sent back a pair in terracotta because I didn’t like how soft the EVA strip was. Leather midsole felt way better to me.
@@nikitasavtchenko4418 thanks for this insight!

One of the Chelsea boot rules is no skinny jeans... this guy was wearing skinny jeans
Nothing like cowboy boots, Rios of mercedes, Tony Lama, Nocona, etcetera etcetera....
Depends if your a white guy
@cheech6864 what does color have to do with boots?...
The Thursday Scout is their best Chelsea boot.
Chukka
I want them all.
The Duke best of both worlds 🔥
"they don't use the most flashy leather"
lol that's an interesting way of putting it
Stride wise says Cavaliers 😢help.
Thursday boots
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Ariats are nice. Lose the "cuff". Looks like shiite
