I just ordered myself a custom pair of Forefronts. Bison leather with the rough lower and smooth upper. Cant wait to get them and enjoy the luxury of 4mm thick bison leather boots! Thanks JK!
What craftsmanship! Creating not only a sound functional boot, but a work of beauty. It will be an honor to wear such fine work. Many thanks to the hard working artist!
I find this strangely satisfying to watch. During a time where it seems to be more about how cheap you can make something, it's nice to see there's still craftsman out there making things like a great pair of boots. I've skimped on some things in my life but never what I put on my feet. I have a pair of L.L. Bean boots that I bought around 1989 and I still wear them today. LL Bean resoled them for me a couple times for free but I've heard they don't do that any longer. I'm guessing it's because they don't make them like they used to. Last year I bought a new pair of work boots and I went with Thorogood boots. I think they're great American Made boots but man this Bison Leather really looks great. I may have to have a pair of these in the near future.
I ordered a pair from Germany, waited for a week, and boy! they are awesome! light and very comfortable. I decided to call up this video to see how they are made..worth the price I paid for them! highly recommended!👌
I have never visited a leather shoe factory, and I am impressed by the skill and technology that goes into creating these true pieces of art. Congratulations!! Greetings from Brazil!
I'm grateful for showing me how much work and workmanship takes time, dedication and skill. I think it's worth every dollar 💰 maybe hundreds, I'm just guessing.
I really admire JK Boots, i think the craftsmanship is above and beyond. Haven't tried a pair yet but im excited to save up and order a pair of the 10" superduty bison. Keep up the good work!
Looks like a great boot . I always liked the soft rubber soles for working on roofs and carpenter work. The bison leather should hold up for many years.
I have only bought Red Wing boots heritage, but today I ordered my first pair of these JK, I’m excited to get them, I even paid for the 9 week built, can’t wait to have them!!!
nowadays you truly get cheated on leather shoes, but these bros!!! they are dope!! I ordered them to Germany and I waited for a week and half but boy!!!
I have the black forefronts and they are awesome. Just had them resoled after almost 2 years and they are ready to go another 2 years strong! The leather is thick and broken in so perfectly to my foot. Next time, I’ll probably have them rebuilt. Definitely best boots I ever had by far!
Hello Tim, after several weeks staring at my new double steel shank bison boots I finally laced them up. They’re incredibly nice literally have molded to my foot in just a couple of hours. This is my second pair and will be ordering more in the future once again thank you and your team.
What beautiful craftsmanship!! I never get tired watching skilled hands make one of the most important articles of clothing.I will look into purchasing a pair now after seeing the quality and work put into these boots.Thanks
This is fascinating. So many wonderful tools & gadgets for making a shoe. Watching them using the edge trimming knife is so satisfying. I'm also surprised at how long the nails holding the sole on are.
Just ordered a pair of the bison shadows in person!! What a beautiful boot. Can't wait to receive them! Good luck with the relocation. I'll have to make a visit to the new place when it's up and running, cheers!
The attention and care that goes into making these boots is awesome. I really want a pair now. I've been wearing Thorogoods for a long time now and I love them but they don't look as good as these Forefronts do. I see myself buying some JK boots in the future. Nice craftsmanship.
These workers building these boots are impressive. One slip of the knife or sander, or even the needle... And the boot could be done for. They're very skilled!
I've been on the fence about ordering a pair of these Bison Forefront boots for a while now. This video was hypnotizing to watch... love the craftsmanship. I guess now is the time to order me a pair so I can have them by the Summer/Fall.
received my Bison Forefronts last week. It's been too hot to really wear them around, but they look and smell fantastic! They appear that break-in will be a breeze and should be a comfy boot to wear. Time will tell... if they are all that, I'll be ordering another pair to keep in the rotation.
I am also a mature leather crafting not all i had basic tools i have but those skills with machines it took look easy but not? I'm right? That's why I wish I could also be a shoe maker ...
These are absolutely beautiful. Someday I'll own a pair of boots in that bison leather. With the softness and rapid wear of the Christy soles, though, I'd rather see the uppers stitched to a full leather midsole and just have the Christy's glued on, for ease of replacement without having to constantly re-stitch them, which you can only do so many times before needing a full rebuild.
They look like nice boots, I've just never seen bare seams on the bottom of a hiking boot before. With every step you have to worry about them wearing down. That drove me crazy, I thought surely they are gonna cover that or thats not the bottom. But it was.
Not sure how I got here but man, glad I did. Will be ordering for myself and my brother just based on the craftmanship. Do you have a suggestion on sizing? Likely wearing a heavier sock due to cold weather. thanks for the vid
Sorry, I don't share the opinion that this is a must-have boot. Why? Well, I was really fascinated during the first half of the video. This leather is unbelievable, so thick, robust, and cozy soft. The sewing is well done. A nice extra protection at the heel..... but then the disappointments began: No reinforcement for the toe tip, no steel or wood shank, and the bottom of the inner sole was not filled with kork - just a piece of leather at the heel end. Due to all the remaining gaps the intermediate sole is really humpbacked (see 19:55). After a running in this unevenness will get transferred to the inner shoe and you will feel it. The worst is how the upper leather layer is bended outside and directly sewed through the outsole. No leather frame! Why? The nice upper shoe would have deserved it! A sole renewal becomes a nightmare. I would buy the boots if all the hidden elements are as well done as the visual ones.
Man, that pair of boots would outlive anybody.
Extreme thick and robust leather! Yes, and you can resole them.

Right on! No problem 🤘
Did you get yourself a pair from these guys? oh boy!!!🤩😍🥰

Those boots look like they will last forever. Beautifully done.

This is the best I have seen yet in terms of quality of materials and craftsmanship
I am drunk righ now but i will send you the link where I ordered from Germany, they are kinda of pricy but boy!!😍😍😍😍😍
this makes me appreciate those craftsmen who make handmade shoes. my respect
What craftsmanship! Creating not only a sound functional boot, but a work of beauty. It will be an honor to wear such fine work. Many thanks to the hard working artist!
Thank you very much!

Nothing beats hand crafted leatherwork
I absolutely love the look of the bison when it's stretched!
Yup, definitely looks tasty🤤
Brilliant. What an art of making a shoe.

@@juandavalos5854 Sí, en Brasil hacemos buenos zapatos, pero nunca había visto zapatería artesanal. ¡Pensé que era muy hermoso!😊😊👍🏼👍🏼
Bro! trust me these shoes are just a dope!, it is like they scanned your foot and made them for you!!!
Perfect material for boots, another perfect craftsmanship for boots 👢

Man we should be able to give a few thumbs up 👍🏽 on this video,the craftsmanship is top notch !
Now here. Comes the most beautiful part ...the beautiful middle sole of the shoes

Having worn Redwing most of my working life … I can honestly say they look real good boots a pleasure to watch great craftsmanship 🇬🇧
Wonderful video making.... The boots look fantastic, what a craftsmanship.

I really like the lower profile loop to prevent your pants from getting caught behind it when you stand up.
This leather looks like one tanned from horses hide, a topquality. Good jobs guys!!

My bison boots are coming in two days!!! It took 8 weeks from day of purchase that ain’t bad at all
so there is a lead time when ordering
Makes me want to buy a pair!
