Ariat Two24's boot the Jefferson is a unique hybrib of a chelsea boot and a cowboy boot. I got a pair to cut in half and review to see how it stands up against the only other boot that similar that i've cut apart, the $500 RM Williams.

The major cost difference isn't just about the components or materials, used in the boots. The biggest costs come from the fact that one is made in Mexico and one is made in Australia. Australia is right up the pointy end of wages for employees, right up there for work conditions, for occupational health and safety standards etc, all of these add substantialy to the final cost of any consumable. I, for one, would much rather pay the extra dollars, knowing the person who made my boots was paid a decent wage and was not a child of 12, working in a sweat shop. I'm not saying the people who make the Ariat boots use child, or slave, labour, not at all, I just know you can't get away with that sort of thing at all, in Australia.
25 years later and three re-soles - the RM Williams look as good as the day I bought them.
Yep and the price comparison is not really relevant as the crew making the RMs are probably on a minimum of AUD $30 - $40 an hour, 4-5 weeks paid annual leave
@@johnhenson4054 is still paying
@@johnhenson4054 I’m is still here fo Ross o us so
the@@johnhenson4054 is newly out now
9 days later and I’m on my second pair of RM’s which seem to have the same defect as the first, separating at the toe.
I think it’s fair to point out that RMs are normally about $500-$600 in Australia which is 350-390 USD, in the US they are much more of a specialty. You can get Redwings in Australia but you’d be crazy to buy them for $450 Aus when good Oliver’s/Redbacks/Steel-Blue are $200-$250.
“You’re not going work in these” Australians west of Goulburn: “yeah I’m going to pretend I didn’t hear that”
I'm east of Goulburn, and work in my RM's every day. Anything else just feels cheap and nasty compared to RM Williams.
Rm Williams are on a completely different level!! I've rebuilt several pairs and they are awesome.
............ Nice subtle brag.
@@jackfarnham8969 lol
I dont think anything beats R M Williams
Have rebuilt my pair 3 time originally purchased 20yrs again
I am so excited for the moc toe show down! I’m so happy that we are diving back into work boots!
I've worn RM's for 37 years; and the only thing I don't like, is the damn price nowadays.
You're paying for quality though, they will last you so much longer than other boots that they actually end up saving you money.
I’m curious how much did RM Williams cost 37 years ago?
Thanks for posting another boot video! Always very helpful and informative.
First time I felt like he was a little biased.. the sponsorship killed the video
Unfortunately I agree.
Agreed .. unsubscribing
Agreed unfortunately
Agree, really like this channel - but this felt very biased, making me question the other videos.
Winter is coming. Please review winter leather gloves at different price points like Kinco, Give'r and Hestra
That’s a really cool idea
You left a ton of information out of the RM Williams. They are hand made, whole cut boots from one piece of leather. That’s a lot of material for one boot. Also, not many companies make whole cut boots. I know you did another vid just on the RM, but if your doing a comparison, it’s good to have the details.
you are expected to watch his video on the boots to compare them to ariats
Thanks, I felt the need to defend aussie pride here boiling up after watching this vid. I also would have said that i'm very confused as to why he didn't get the full rubber outsole which is pretty much the stock standard for RMs.
Like I mentioned in the video it’s less about the direct comparison and more about having a high watermark to compare a more affordable boot to to see what sacrifices were made and if you are ok with the sacrifices.
I’m always open to hearing what aspect of the video you think I was shilling about so I can improve the videos. But it doesn’t do you or me any good to just call me a shill without referencing anything I got wrong.
@@RoseAnvil I think RM Williams is overpriced for materials alone but you also get the heritage and flex points with others who are in-the-know. Honestly, Ariat doesn't have brand heritage or a discernible aesthetic. They're great for people who are strictly concerned only to the value of materials, which you give great reviews on. But it would be nice to acknowledge the heritage and aesthetic of RM Williams.
Thank you for featuring this, I was planning to buy an Ariat jodhpur real soon since my riding boots are ancient and broken.
Would love to see you do a leather briefcase series! I think there's lots of craftsmen ship effort put into every briefcase and it would be intriguing to explore the cut open briefcases as well as the different leather quality used and tightness of stitching.
Love your videos! Keep up the great work :)
Thanks! looking forward to the mock toe boot review.
Will be sad to see the end of the white sneaker series. Was my favourite series of yours (as I'm not really a boot-wearing person). Would love for a series to continue of reviewing non-boot shoes too as I find it interesting to see how the likes of Adidas/Puma/Nike/Reebok etc construct their leather shoes compared to boot companies. Maybe a skater series looking at all the different mass-produced suede shoes or some other way to keep comparing and looking at casual footwear.
Great video but I think it would be fair to note that RM Williams are actually $350 US in Australia (or ordering from there), because that means that we're dealing with a price difference of $70, not $200. This is also relevant because someone buying the Ariats in Aus would be dealing with markup too anyway.
Good point. I paid $595 aud during the time Louis Vuitton owned RM. Apparently Louis Vuitton sold the brand and now my same boots have increased to $695. Could be Biden tax though…
I always am interested and appreciate your reviews because they are honest and give the best information to help people like me make the most educated purchases. I am very much looking forward to your moc toe series because you will be reviewing the Danner bull run. If I could make a suggestion to have do a northwest boot review series! You have done two pairs of Nicks but it would be good to see Franjs, JK boots, WESCO and White’s! As many people consider them the Big Five Spokan company’s.
Really excited for the Moc toe series :)
It would be awesome if you could review / cut in half the Timberlands Courma Guy. I am curious about how they compare to the classic premium ones in terms of quality. Not sure which ones to buy.
I have two of the two24 Santa Fe in Calf skin and love them
Very similar to these but rounder toe like a roper style
Having grown up near a large body of water in the northeast US, I’d love to see you do a teardown/comparison of different boat shoe brands. Sperry (regular and Gold Cup lines), Sebago, Quoddy...
Great boots, great reviews!
Do you have motorcycle boots reviews in your video collection?
I'd love to see you cut in half a ballet pointe shoe. I've ripped up an old pair and their layers and such are fascinating.
RM Williams comfort craftsman would be an ideal candidate for a tear dowm
I would love to see a review of the dr martens jadons or sinclairs (the platform ones) and see if they’re better than the regular ones. Btw love your videos, been bingewatching them the past few days.
I'd really like to see a Thursday boot cut in half and your thoughts on them. Please and thank you from West Coast Canada.
Very happy to see the return of Toaster!
Problem of sponsorship is he can't be as honest as we might expect.
I'm a boot guy, so I'm interested in that moc boot series. If I can recommend a brand, it'll be Thursday Boots. Love the info you provide. Good video.
You'd be waiting a couple months for the build(they're made to order) but I'd love to see you cut in half one of the William Lennon traditional boots from the Peak District in England. They have a unique method of brass wire stitching the soles.
RMs do a screwed some as well
Great vid! I just found out you rock climb! I'd love to see rock climbing shoes cut in half
Please do the twisted X’s in the moc toe series!! The ones with the safety toe are my daily wear shoes to my job at a saw mill. Would appreciate an expert opinion on what’s inside. Thank you for the videos, they are excellent!
It'd be awesome to see you do a breakdown on Coach backpacks or leather jackets
You should do a video cutting the Birkenstock Stalon boots in half. Just curious to see how those are built. Keep up the great videos!
Can you include the Georgia Moc Toe boots? I love my pair of Georgia work boots and I’ve thought about getting a pair of the Moc Toes as a “dress” boot (aka I can wear them out on the town or use them for work (but mostly “dressy”))
Thank you for this! I wanted to buy these boots since I saw your Highlands video, but had some doubts about them. Now with the discount I’ll definitely buy them.
@@dominickashani3593 Actually these boots were made in Mexico! FYI i own two pairs of RM Williams, but i want to point out you are trying to spread false info by saying these Ariat boots are made in China when this is incorrect.
Dominic if you are going to blow up the comment section at least get your facts straight
Rose Anvil just block him, mate. Some people are just trolls.
Would love to see you do a boot series where you look at From the First and compare to YSL or Story Et Fall
I swear. That's probably the comparison I want to see the most on here.
Especially the 40mm Luca sidezips.
That’d be dope, I own both SLP and FtF boots, I’d love to see a comparison between them
yes please that would be amazing
Yesss one day I definitely will
Leave SEF under ground please 😭 from the first would love to go viral I'm sure though 🤣
Interesting one for you. Going back to the doc martens. Some of the old vintage ones of the 90s are sold in new condition on e.bay. There is a few on there, mainly in the uk be great to buy one of the 90s, new vintage docs, say a 1460 or 1490 and walk about with them. Be interesting to see what you think, as they also had shanks as well...you could cut them up after if you wanted..👍
Idk why but yutube didn't give me any notifications and I checked you channel and you've posted 3 videos !!
You can only get so many notifications per day from RUclips. So you will sometimes miss notifications from subscribed channels with notifications turned on. This is why, for channels you follow regularly, it is actually better to be subscribed with no notification, as you will see the videos in your feed.
Check your subscriber feed. Don't mess around with the feed the post above mine is talking about. That is your home feed and that won't show relevant stuff a lot of the time. Go to subscriptions, and it'll have EVERY SINGLE video from the channels you're subscribed to. No exceptions... EVERY VIDEO.
I haven’t been posting as often and RUclips kinda punishes channels for not posting enough by not showing people the video. Got to love the algorithm ha ha
Could you make a video where you dye a brown boot black? Curious to see what you would use as someone who works with leather
I wonder if it would be valuable to cut apart some classic American Snow Boots (like the LL Bean boot) as we approach the Winter season. Would you consider something like that?
Please add the Thursday Boots Diplomat to your moc toe roundup! I love Thursdays (I have the Captains and the Dukes) but I’ve been really curious as to how they line up with the Red Wings, who are arguable the reigning moc toe champ!
I totally forgot they had a moc toe
And Aldens Indy boot if you have a zillion bucks
I would love to see the Captains cut in half. I've been thinking about getting a pair.
The Ariats have the same issue as other non-RM Chelsea boots: 1. they’re too “busy” with the design 2. multiple pieces of leather.
They do have a nice slim sole which is a nice trend. However, being zipper boots, they aren’t appealing to me. I have a 2014 pair of Luchesse zips and love them. At $700, I regret waiting until 2022 to buy my RMs which are more durable and comfortable.
OH MY GOD A MOC TOE SERIES????????
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Should be worth noting that RM williams are far cheaper in Australia ($500 AUD about $350 USD) And Ariat 224's are far more expensive, and not easy to get a hold of. The RM's are just flat out a better boot, there's no reason anyone here would buy them over a set of RM's
Love your videos dude. Would you please consider cutting a pair of New Rock boots in half? It would be so interesting to see beatle crushers in 2 parts.
Split a comfort pair of RM, pretty much all gyw shoes with leather soles look the same inside. The comfort RM are different tho, wondering what they look like inside!
I know you don’t tend to do women’s shoes, but can you try mime et moi? I really want to know how they work, and whether they are durable!
I would love a conparison between all those topl boots: Viberg, Whites, Nicks, John Lofgren, Alden and such
This video shows us how much you're getting from Nick's if you've watched his other video talking about them. I suggest You should do a video on Nick's Americana vs RM Williams.
Now, I would love to see some Guidi PL1 here.
Good to see you back cutting boots. Got something weird going on in the comment section.
New work shop yay
You should do a review about some timberland boots with anti-fatigue technology
Ever thought about trying the Twisted X lite work boots a cut? I saw some for around $180. They look decent but I don't know if I'm better off buying Ariat boots for that price. And I do prefer the cowboy style workboot
I'd love to see a video about the bests quality chelsea boots from this channel.
Have you done something like the New Balance 1400 Walking/Hiking Shoe/Boot?
nEW rOCK bOOTS. I'm going to keep reminding until Halloween. ;)
Top video as always.
I'm ordering one of your belts soon and does anyone know if it runs true to size, sorry i don't know much about belts.
I really would love to have a series about boots or shoes that are made ethically (cruelty free/vegan/organic stuff etc). I always try to buy products that are ethically made and very often the good quality boots or shoes I want to buy haven't those requirement and it's always very hard to find good products
WOAW !!!!! CUT THE BEAUTY !!! ARE YOU INSANE ???
My RM Williams took 6 months to wear in wearing them 5 days a week for work. I almost gave up on them. They are comfy now and after 3 yrs the elastic is wearing out as well as the sole. I will be trying these boots above for my daily shoes and see how they go
Why not just get the elastic replaced and get them resoled?
Still in progress of watching your video but i love ariat for english style riding!
for the moctoe shoe reviews, can you please do a Paraboot.
Next white sneakers should be good man brand. Next boots should be Thursdays
You have the best assistant
Ariat have an almost exact “copy” of the RM comfort. Would be an interesting comparison
its good to see u again! when u gonna get toaster some WAVES
Have been mesmerised going back and watching so many boots get cut in half! I was wondering if you could cut another vegan boot in half, the Vegetarian Shoes Airseal 10 eye boot steel toe. Been considering buying them as they're made in the same place that make Solovairs, and supposedly the vegetan micro material is close to real leather. Whether that's true though who knows. Anyway please keep up the great content! 😁
Vegan leather does more damage to the environment than any western made leather. Of course if you're talking about leather from India or China or Mexico then yeah they pollute the environment and are cruel to the animals and kill them for their leather more than plastic and the workers can develop health issues. But the western tanneries, Horween, C.F stead, and a lot of the Italians and French ones use the leather that are byproducts of the meat industry, you can find veg tanned leather, or they have their own facilities to clean up the chromium salts in the water and protective gear for the workers.
Kinda like how most clueless liberals support electric cars while not realizing how damaging the mining of rare earth minerals in China are to the environment there for electric car batteries. This is going to sound crazy but it's true: Pure Electric cars are a ploy by the elite to restrict travel and adopt a social credit system like China because Electric resupply stations will need to be nationalized or at least funded by the government in order to really cover the country in any reasonable amount of time from now. Cows and Gasoline especially now with emission laws in the west, are not that great of a threat to the environment or to our health. Communist and Capitalist slave labor and conditions and unregulated pollution are but it's a lot easier to critique the things the government tells you to than to change and criticize the root causes that they don't want you to criticize. It's a lot easier to band-aid over the problems rather than examine their root causes. Vegan leather is a band-aid for animal cruelty, as are electric cars a band-aid for the insane plastic and air pollution going on. (Vegan leather is plastic, real leather will bio-degrade plastic never EVER will, all those sites telling you plastic degrades after 100 years are LYING, it merely disintegrates into smaller and smaller pieces from a whole piece, but none of those pieces EVER degrades, in fact the sun causes them to act as a sort of sieve that absorbs nearby toxic vapors meaning all that ocean plastic becomes more and more toxic as time goes on ).
And if you are a real stickler the ultimate solution would be to pay a premium for veg tanned leather to help bring that industry back, yeah they use a lot of water but it's much easier to clean the water and there are no harsh chemicals, the water is being poisoned by dead skin/raw flesh/bacteria and natural tanning agents that can be easily filtered out. It's the cheap consumerism and godlessness of modern day communist/socialist and capitalist societies that traded out quality, tradition, patience for a good product, and national origin and local accountability for globalism and convenience, and the I want it now mentality.
CRAZY!!!! You won't believe this but I just subscribed your channel because I was saddle soaping and oiling my Justin boots and had tutorials for that playing in the background an I heard you say let's go ahead and cut this $1,000 shoe in half and instantly was hooked!! Then immediately searched for cutting a Justin commander X 5 steel toe in half, not exactly but 6 hrs ago you cut an different boot in half! That's crazy! I love it! An I'll definitely be watching for when you get a chance to cut a Justin Commander X5 steel toe boot in half!!! 😈 ☠️ 😈
Given how serious you are about being non-biased by sponsors in your analysis, it might be good to copy or link to one of the really good writeups of your sponsor philosophy for all your videos. It’s a really cool move and you should make sure that new viewers know where you’re coming from! (Like in the video description or something)
Yey I just had my RM comfort craftsman delivered, got them for a cracking price in the UK £280 shipped.
I had to send a pair back because the heel quality was terrible, the new pair are much better thankfully👌
They're the nuts 👌
That's cheap for comfort craftsmen. They're usually around £375.
What do you mean the heel quality was terrible? I’ve had mine for a few months and I think I might have the same issue. I feel like it doesn’t sit flat on the ground
Any thoughts on cutting up old boots to see how they have held up to wear and tear?
Wow, this would be real nice!
Next time, you should do an LL Bean 10" duck boot!
It would be really cool to see you cut up some women's dress shoes to see if there is a substantial difference between designer and department store brands
I want to do some comparisons between men’s and women’s because I’ve heard women’s shoes are built more poorly but are the same price as men’s shoes
Oh yes please ! I’ve heard that too. Not fair.
@@RoseAnvil this is a reflection of the way they like to buy. Women's designer shoes only have to last for a season. Dior are notorious for poor quality.
Hi Wes. What about Thursday Boots?
I’d really like to hear more about the pros and cons of gussets and zippers on boots. How are they in longevity?
It varies from boot to boot but big eventually wear out and can be replaced. Gussets stretch out more over time which can cause the boots not to fit correctly anymore
Rose Anvil See, that would be really useful to mention within videos-I bet a lot of people don’t know that, or what to look for in a good, long lasting gusset-or zipper! Surely some of the zippers are easier to replace than others? Can gussets be replaced? How do they replace zippers without affecting the look of the boot? (It seems like it would be difficult to reuse the same stitching holes, for a bunch of reasons.)
You don’t need to answer me here-these are just some things to think about for future videos (especially vs ones).
@@khills replacing a zipper should be quite easy.
I'd go zippers over gussets all day
Lots of RMs wear out at the gusset, pretty norm in Australia to replace them when resoling.
@@manfredmar See - clearly something worth discussing, since the comment below suggests gusset replacements are common elsewhere. 😉
Can you do allsaints boots next? I recently bought a pair of olin boots and it's by far the thickest boot I've ever worn. I'm curious about the leather quality and can't find much online
that's interesting. i have an old pair of allsaints shoes that are made with really thin leather. the insides are starting to tear up but i still like the look and wear them occasionally. thought about getting a new heel counter put in where it tore up. i don't know much about the brand except they were made in portugal.
You should add one of the Sorel moc toe boots to the moc toe series
Please do one for Thursday boots!
Hey mate, would be great if you cut open a pair of rodd & Gunn boat shoes. Keep up the great work 👍
Clark's Wallabees would be a great shoe to review.
Those Jeffersons ever gonna be back in stock?
not gonna work in either (laughs in Australian) we use the RM williams as work boots that's what they were always made for they were never made for dress boots until recently but they're work boots and the end of the day
Can we do the Thursday moc toe too?
please do the YSL Wyatt boots!
yes! keep doing this kind of videos of dressier ankle/chelsea boots. as someone here already said, a comparison between FromTheFirst vs Saint Laurent would be dope
Can you do Thursday boots please?? I've wanted to buy a pair because they advertise high quality for a fair price.
I think you could do with restructuring and possibly extending the length of your “vs” videos, and it might be worth doing them after you do a full tear down on both of the products you’re looking at. That way you can do a few things to combat some of the criticism in the comments here. Doing a full tear down on the Ariats first lets you go into serious detail on how they are made, and satisfies folks who want a good look at all the materials and enjoy hearing you talk about all the details, as well as the folks who just find it satisfying to see soles torn off. (I admit I was disappointed we didn’t get to see the soles peeled apart; you occasionally have such interesting revelations as you pull things fully apart.)
Then your “vs” videos can skip the tearing apart, or show funny outtakes from the first videos, and really get into the nitty gritty of compare and contrast. For example, what’s the plus/minus of the gusset vs zipper? Where is the leather from and how is it different-not only the part of the animal skin, but how the skin was prepared. How many pieces of leather is it cut from, and why might that matter? How easy would each be to resole, and how much would it cost? How easy are they put on? (And think about dexterity issues-could you get them on drunk? If one wrist is immobilized? If you have physical disabilities or issues with grip?) Are they water resistant or waterproof? Can you treat the leather without having the color change? How hard would it be to have them stretched if you’re between sizes? How does the leather clean?
You could also consider community feedback on what the most important things to know are, and pop them up on the left and right side of the screen as you’re talking in general. That way you don’t have to restate the information you’ve already filmed. (And from a RUclips standpoint, you’ll likely drive traffic to your older videos as people search to find comparison videos and learn you do have detailed reviews, too.)
🤷♀️ Just something to think about! This video felt like it wasn’t really a comparison, wasn’t really a tear apart, and like there just wasn’t time to do both in one for a new shoe/boot.
Will the Idrese Nuno make it to the white sneaker series?
Do a video about ysl wyatt's please
Would love to see a comparison to Jeffery west boots
I hope you can try the Grinders boots or make a video about similar boots to Dr Martens
I don't find good information about this topic and I believe you can do a good job about this
Solovair
Dr Marten
Grinders
And some brands that stores like EMP sells
How about doing a top 10 budget shoes.
Anyone experience with the Sandro Chelsea boots?
Can you try cobbler Union ?
So when are you going split some Thursdays?
Thursday Boot Co. review next!
Can you do Frye inside zip boots?
