      So I have an inquiry about boots
      I've consistently used the Carolina CA8528 model of boot for the past 4 years and my feet loves them
      I was wondering if they are able to be resoled without too much headache if you could get back to me that would be great

    You say, “there’s really no information on their site anywhere about the specifics of why they designed this boot, what it’s for.”
    From their website:
    “We are not a work boot company and we are not a dress boot/shoe company. We make a boot for both occasions, and this is the reason that we don’t have “collections” of boots. They can do everything, they were built for everything, and they should be the most versatile pair of boots you own, but they won’t be stuck in one class or collection. That’s the whole point of the brand.”

    I have two pairs of Trumans and I love the boot. I would like to see the older version cut in half to see how they changed over time. I think the premium redwing description is spot on, tough but doesn't weigh three pounds. The weight is my main concern with PNW boots. I love the boot but hate the weight. Truman's are a little over two pounds, my Drew loggers are 3 pounds and I hardly wear the loggers. The Truman's I wear all the time, the sweet spot between weight and toughness. I also wear my Redwings (iron ranger and 875 moctoes) the most, coming in at 1 lb 12 oz. each. I am a finish carpenter and I need to be light on my feet, walking into finished houses. The loggers are only used when I have to work outdoors or in the snow, then I can appreciate a really tough boot, but that isn't often. I prefer the lighter boots for casual stuff.

My Truman's in Waxy Mohawk are my go to boot for those situations. Sturdy enough and tough enough that i can trust them to protect me and not blow up, but nice enough to go back to the office when i am done and not be super heavy and hot.
    I love the leathers they use. The Gallun Teton Stag leather they use is by far my new favorite. I am really close to ordering a new pair right now with their black Friday sales even though i know i shouldn't.

    I went to the their website. They have some really great leathers to choose from but every boot I looked at was cap toe and Vibram V-100 lug soles. I don’t like cap toe boots and I need a smooth sole. I love my Nick’s builder pros but… I learned that I don’t want a V-100 sole on any new boots I get. I farm for a living in Mississippi and we get almost 60 inches of rain and tracking mud everywhere is bad with Vibram V-100’s. As soon as my new bison leather Nicks packers in arrive I’m sending my builder pros back to get V-bar soles put on.

    I'm glad we finally get to see Truman's go through the band saw. But I'm sticking with my theory that there is some kind of tiff between Weston and Vince. You can't be cutting boots in half this long and just now be getting to Truman. Then the response is "they're pretty good." It seems like Truman would be a brand that this channel would want to get behind and instead the video felt rushed and glossed over.
    Truman is 3x the boot Jim Green makes (I own both) and those have been hyped to no end. Anyway, thanks for doing the vid!

      All these boot channels are fairly ridiculous, although I watch them from time to time. Most of the people who wear these “lifestyle” boots, including this guy; aren’t really working in them, so something like Red Wings would last basically forever. I own a couple pairs of Truman’s now, along with White’s, Viberg, Dayton, Red Wings, Frye; and a few other brands. Truman’s are tougher than, say, Alden Indy’s or Red Wing Iron Rangers, both of which are tough enough to wear to office jobs and take for walks in the park. I wore a pair of Thorogood 1892 boots for 2 summers while working outside every day at a state park, and they held up fine.

      It's a very impressive amount of leather underfoot on this boot, I'm surprised Weston didn't note the massive slab of midsole leather. Truman looks like a great brand, I've been eyeing the White's MP but $700 and a lead time is a hard sell for me. Now I know I can get a pretty similarly built Truman without waiting months, and for $200 less.

    So I'm a commercial construction worker in Seattle and I put boots through a beating. Average about 50 miles a week in some of the harshest environments. I can tear through a pair of boots in about 3 months but occasionally I run into some that can make it a year or longer. Just wanted to put it out there if you wanted to do any followups on any 1000 mile chop ups. I'm about done with a pair of Irish Setter Wingshooters, they have about 9 months, or about 1800 miles on them. They look like hell, but have been better than my last few pairs of setters. Don't know if those videos do well or not but I myself would love to know how boots wear and their weak spots IRL and really enjoyed the danner bull run 1000 mile cut up you did. I have a stack of boots here ready to thrash, next pair is the Danner Cedar Rivers. Let me know if your interested!

They are LEAGUES better than Red Wing, not to shit on Red Wing but Truman is just on a different level. I own a pair of their shrunken bison boots and compared to my other boots they are thicker, the stitching is better, the small details are better, and just overall QC is better.

    This seems like the right place to ask: Does anyone know a good quality low-drop or no-drop men's boots brand? I'm looking for leather boots, not synthetic stuff.
    Thanks a lot!

    If they gusseted up those tongues I’d buy a pair and put them to work. To me, if I’m wearing boots I want them to have a fully gusseted tongue. Just a personal preference. Great boots though.

    some older vids I've seen definitely had foam insole stuff. don't know when they changed that or the branded outsole, etc. they keep changing the leather to whatever and they don't much do wide widths still?

    • @Highland_Paddy
      @Highland_Paddy Месяц назад

      seems like they don't want to offer the taller ones much now and also want to sell more the waxed flesh and roughout stuff than the really nice-looking pretty leathers as much, too. also, they do still hurt to wear out the box more than some the less expensy brands and don't know how long this may last. PNW says 80-100 hrs maybe for theirs, but they have the heavy arch and thicker leather, etc.

    • @MetalBootGuy

      they changed from foam to cork several years ago after customers were complaining about it.

      Yes, but which year? How many of mine? Is largely not needed for him to cut up the other boots in many cases.

      @Highland_Paddy that I'm not sure of. how old are yours? I'm pretty sure it's been several years. I don't know if any of mine have foam, but if they do I can't tell. My first pair was bought in june of 21.

      @MetalBootGuy Месяц назад

      @Highland_Paddy also I don't find them to hurt to wear out of the box? unless you are referring to break in? In that case I could understand as they do use some pretty beefy leathers

      ​​@@bobjohnson6321Nobody really knows. He's claiming they're going to cancel the Stone and Coach Rambler versions, which are their number two and number three sellers. Sounds like he had a falling out with CF Stead and flew off the handle.
      Guy doesn't strike me as the most stable of individuals, unlike someone like Andrew at Parkhurst, who comes across as one of the nicest, most genuine people alive. I wouldn't be surprised at all if it's a ploy to sell more boots during the holiday season . Or it could be true. The irony of his language is that for him, Truman Boot IS a side hustle. Apparently he owns a huge ranch in the Spokane area, comes from money, and spends most of his time tending his ranch and having fun in the outdoors. Well, unless he's burying his own employees on Twitter as he did recently LOL.
