When it comes to country brogue boots, Trickers Stows are the last word. You definitely need to review a pair of them. Absolute tanks and gorgeous to boot!
Regarding Cheaney sole nomenclature, R = dainite/studded rubber sole. C= commando. D = diamond rubber sole (city sole) GV = Vibram vi-lite B = Britgrip sole (similar to Victory sole) GL = Gumlite EF = Extra flex leather sole (I think). If the abbreviation is not used it is mostly just a leather sole but there are exceptions where they use other soles if it is the only sole type used on the model.
Cheaney are my favourite brand of boot makers. A good balance between price and quality and not so expensive that I fear to get them dirty though I do mostly buy them on sale. At full price nowadays I may baby them. This sort of boot is nowadays only likely to be worn down to the country pub. Given the wet climate in most of the UK, people mainly wear hiking boots from brands like Meindl, Scarpa, Salomon and British made Alt-Berg for actually walking off road.
I have Trickers and Grensons and I love them to bits but my Cheaney Ribble C Veldtschoen Chelsea Boot in Almond Grain Leather are the most comfortable boots I have ever worn. Like walking on sunshine! 😆
Excellent review. They look really lovely, and I’m a big fan of the high-low look. Not sure what I enjoyed more; the history and back story, or the boot itself. Looking forward to the next video.
Another great video, and your videos do always stimulate a thought or two in me.......Although you have Trickers Henry, you should try Trickers Stow, for me the Trickers construction and leather quality are a step up again from Cheaney and light years ahead of Grenson.... Yes I am English and living in Sydney, I love my Brogues, hate the American term wingtips, and also love my RMs, Nicks, Trumans and hopefully my Wesco's when they eventually arrive! Keep up the great work....
@@krisjonesuk yes I noticed that with Trickers so maybe you’re right that it’s used in certain areas of the country - it’s just I’ve just never heard it! To me a “tramp” is someone who lives on the road and sleeps rough like an American Hobo and is sometimes used to describe long distance lorry drivers who sleep on their cabs - “trampers”. Interesting.
Those boots look awesome 🙌...and the thing about the space between the panels of the eyelets is misleading. I have slightly wide toe box ball, and slightly skinny ankles... And have problems with 5 inches an up ankle length boots because of that. Thank you for the video.
I have low arches and have had to give up derby boots that laced with the quarters touching. It does depend on the design of the pattern, but when touching means you can't pull the boot tight over your instep, your foot may slip, crowding toes and blistering heels. The dressier the boot, the narrower the designed lacing gap tends to be, and the more important the fit in width and height, since the range of lacing adjust is limited. Thankfully I can get Higgins Mills in B width that fit with a close design, but even sizing down, the eyelets of Iron Rangers come right together and leave my feet flopping about.
Still a pass for me... I have lived here in the UK for years now and somehow i still would not wear boots with brogues. I still prefer my RM Williams for formal wear, or my red wings for a more casual everyday outing. I like the way you compared these boots to White's and RM Williams, especially the materials and costs of those pairs. Keep it up with the videos mate 👍
@@Bootlosophy I can't agree. Cheaneys are great (I mainly wear Tricker's but my Cheaney Malllorys are probably my most comfortable pair of boots) but I have to say that Crockett & Jones are higher quality again. I yearn a pair of Snowdons. Best wishes.

Hoping you review trickers Stow, teik. Your presentation of information is outstanding, want to hear from you
'I didn't want to bugger up the hand-painted patina' - That gets my subscription.
I was wondering where your Cheaney's review was, and here it is!
Hope you enjoyed it!

I think these are actually my favourite boots that you’ve reviewed.
They do it all.
Got them, love them ....I have a number of pairs of Cheaney .. great quality and designs.

Nice review. I'm really coming around to wingtip brogues.
Excellent review. They look really lovely, and I’m a big fan of the high-low look.
Not sure what I enjoyed more; the history and back story, or the boot itself.
Looking forward to the next video.
really interesting and informative your videos are👍
Great review and a great boot. For a ten year old boot they look fantastic. Obviously hard wearing and refined, just as a British boot should be.
Fantastic review as always, Teik!
What a gorgeous pair 😍
Awesome review Teik. I also appreciate the history lesson. Good job.
Thank You for sharing!
Hurricane boots - my fave - 2 pairs in black and whiskey - feel luxurious on but can literally wear them everywhere - all day
Owned a pair for a decade, love them

The boots look pretty good even after 10 years
Here in England we would never use the term “tramping” to describe country walking. It’s “hiking” pure and simple. Tramping is for Australians.
Tramping is used in the UK, though maybe only in certain dialects. Trickers sell “tramping shoes”.

10 years old?! They look awesome still.
Probably because they are 10 years old 🤣🤣🤣

Same

@@Bootlosophy
Are they just as good as Trickers .?
@@sursorn5575 I don’t have Trickers
@@Bootlosophy
I thought you had a pair of Trickers Henry Chelsea?
Cheaney footwear are pure quality only surpassed by crocket & jones.
In your opinion…
In your imagination
Beautiful😂
