    Just put my first order for Franks Boots last week. I can’t wait for them to arrive! I hope they’ll serve me as well as your commanders have served you.

    Highlander type 2 custom fit absolutely the best Franks. When you work your a$$ off they are well worth the money. Quality and Value

    Just got a set of the Frank's Ground Pounder Boots - 10", Lace-To-Toe, V100 and Logger Heels. Hope I get as long out of them.

    oh, just clean them anyway...lol. I'm not a hard working man like you. I own two pairs of Franks. I completely agree that they're second to none but it's great to see a hard working guy use a pair of Franks and show them for what they are...very tough and durable.

    You’re the reason I now know what a good boot consists of. I bought a pair of Carolina loggers with a vibram sole. Loved those boots! Not quite the $650 tag and the 100 hour break in like the Nick’s. But still around 40-50 hours and $260. I loved those boots😢

    Those Irish Setters look like a pair of Wolverines I had...fell apart in about 6 months.
    Try a pair of Wesco's, then do a comparison with your others.
    Sadly, wait time is 15 months+.

    Absolutely love both pairs of my Frank's. To give you credit, they don't look as torn up after 4 years, as I'd think absolutely 0 maintenance would do. Did you dry brush them every now and then?

    • @NomadicINK

      Ive done maybe 2 cleanings over the 4 years. But it's been a solid year and a half since ive given them any love.
      These boots just hold up well!
      I'll be cleaning them soon and we will see if I can make them look a little better 😄

    I contacted Franks, JK, Nicks and Whites for to size me up.
    In your opinion which do you prefer?

      Frank's is best!
      Nick's has stopped doing the McKay-Lockstitch (Blake stitch) to save money. They also don't go as far with MTO as they did when Frank owned Nick's.
      JK are slimmy & sneaky. Cut corners, and try to make their mistakes the customers problem. White's have missed a step since being bought by a Japanese company.

    Forgive my ignorance, I’m just genuinely curious as to why you don’t bother to clean em. If even just once or twice a year you’d get a lot more use out of the leather before rebuilding. Awesome video either way, love Franks!

    Don't put super glue on them, the grain side of the leather is probably still intact, just needs cleaned and oiled.

    nice vids
    thx for sharing those boots conditions
    with better care (especially wax or oiling) seems the boots can last 2x longer since most of the problem only cracks
    seems Frank's commander is very tough :P
    how long ur Nick's last before rebuild?

    You could also drop your boots off at a cobbler who would be happy to clean and condition them for $$$ lol maybe once a year for each pair. Make it easy
