    I swore to myself that I wouldn't buy any more boots. I have more than I will ever need. HOWEVER, a collab remake of the Japanese WWII boots may just break me down. They are just too cool!

    • @ladyeclectic

    This channel is the reason I got a pair of iron rangers and officially entered the world of nice boots. The jungle boot video was an interesting one. I'm curious if there's anyone out there making a good new one. I'm a size 13 and 6ft 4in tall so finding originals of anything from that era that fits me is a struggle at best. Most of the companies that advertise the jungle boot as new are suspiciously cheap and seem like something for scamming people at gun shows

    • @needfortweed8734
      @needfortweed8734 Год назад +3

      I seem to remember that in the comments of that video there was a comment mentioning some company producing really good, functionally identical, to the originals. I thought I had saved the link, but I can't find it on this computer. If I somehow manage to scrounge that up, I'll add a comment below here.

    • @skipinkoreaable
      @skipinkoreaable Год назад

      Yes, I'm very curious about that too. I have a pair of Palladiums that are at the least very similar to Jungle boots in design. Mine are long with laces and a zipper down the side and a press-stud so the zipper doesn't come open. I don't know how they compare to the original Jungle boots. Mine are still going very well after 7 years but I haven't given them especially heavy usage. According to the hype, Palladium made boots for the French Foreign legion, but they did also make a pair of casual looking ones that had disappointingly thin sole rubber when it got cut up on this channel. I would be extremely interested to know what my model looks like when cut in half. At any rate my model would probably not be half bad to wear hard until you're really done with them and you could just buy a new pair if you really hammer them. I'm satisfied with mine so far (after about 7 years).

      I wear a size 14 or 15 (depending on the company) shoe and I think the company you might be looking for is GoRuck, they have an actual black and green boot, but there boots take inspiration from the old school jungle boots and have served me very well both working and professionally. Those boots are called the MAC-V1

    Last year based on the reviews I got a pair of Romeo’s from Georgia Boot Co. and a pair of Carolina moc toes. I wear the Georgia’s to work pretty much every day. For boots in the $90-$120, both are obsoletely worth the price. I love the honest reviews and I’m happy to see the variety on the channel. One day I will get a pair of White’s. Until then, I’m happy with tons of reviews in my price range. Thanks for the great work!

    I've worn redback slip ons for several years. I cannot reccomend them enough. Once my daily boots get shoddy looking I turn them in to work boots and order another pair. I finally ordered a pair of origin boots during their recent sale. Definitely will not be turning those in to work boots though.

    @OldspeedMFG Год назад +5

    Hey Wes, another great video after a year of many new highs. Would love if you did a video about boots you can try on in person in America. There are lots of Red Wing dealers but other than that most of these boots can't be tried on unless you live in NYC or want to return them by mail til you get the right size, which can end up adding another 20% or more to the cost of the boot. Thanks and happy holidays!

    I'm just glad I found out about Jim Green African Rangers from your channel. I have problems with feet that have swollen due to my age, high blood pressure, and lack of exercise during the lockdown (job became 100% teleworking) and their width and softness and PRICE(!) have made them a perfect boot to purchase and wear as I begin my return to outdoor activities. Much appreciated, and Happy New Year! I'll keep an ear to the ground regarding the Japanese boot collaboration, but my interest will depend mainly on their cost... Peace!

    Thanks for your videos and the contest. I was curious of you've ever considered doing a video on a Trickers or Grenson aka English Country-type boot? I've a pair of the Trickers Country Stow and they're great. I also recently purchased a pair of Grenson Fred Triple Welt in hand painted British Tan and did so b/c I was blown away by the triple welt and the overall construction, simply from an external visual perspective of course which is why I'd LOVE to see a video of you cutting a pair in half and digging in to how they do that triple goodyear welt. Just not my pair, lol 🙂 PS. thanks for turning me on to Nicks boots.

    Seems like so many Seniors wear sneakers, mostly New Balance, and very few boot wearers. Been riding motorcycles, hiking, hunting forever so boots for every situation.
    Is there an all around, comfortable, heritage boot style, not brand specific, for the Senior that’s slowing down, not adventuring as
    much?

    Just a heads up that you can get heavily discounted blemished boots at the Thorogood outlet store in Merrill, WI for about a third to half of the retail price. The flaws vary widely and seem to sometimes include sizing errors, but I picked up two pairs with no obvious flaws for ~$90 each.
