Nice to see a review where the footwear is actually fully tested! Unboxing videos are useless to me, i want to see footwear used in the way its meant to be worn & used, so it's much appreciated! Not normally a boot guy, i typically trail run & hike in my Bedrock sandals, but want a waterproof boot without a big drop for the Va winters when the snow piles up.
There was a video a while back, where u were working on Hindu squats underneath a bridge. And you commented on the boots that you were wearing. I was going to buy a pair of those, but apparently. Now i'm going to buy a pair of these :)
I like these way better. Those other ones (Native, I believe is the brand name) look pretty cool. but these feel much better. And kudos for remembering an old video.
I finally bought some Xero shoes (red) based on your abuse. I NEED shoes to last, especially for a higher price! I buy on seasonal sales, or I would be able to. I hope that you put these through their paces.
Although my Aqua IIs fell apart too quickly (which I made a video about), my Speed Force are still going, , and my first pair of Mesa IIs are still in great shape.
Love the review man! You really put them through the tests we all wanna see when looking to get a new boot. I’ve got 5 pairs of different Xero shoes. My Merrel Moabs are finally wearing down so I think I’m gonna give the Ridgeway a try. Excited to have a barefoot boot for outdoors.

@@totallygrateful these boots just just survived some brutal stuff in hurricane Helene. Still a fan.
Like Ko’s jacket. Living in boots but discovered zero shoes this summer. Way to go!
Ko is reluctantly fashionable.
Thanks for the review… I made up my mind and I will go be getting the Ridgeways now
Love your vids
My vids love you.

Final honest opinion on these shoes arter the winter? How did they hold up and would you recommend them?
I now use them daily on a farm, in all sorts of weather. Dig 'em, and would get again.
Great video bud and no socks awesome
