5 Types of Boots Every Guy Should Own

Let’s say that you’re building a boot collection from scratch: which types of boots should you buy first? In this video, we’ll talk about the five best types of boots for guys. We're not saying all men need these boots, or that you're not a real man if you don't own them. We're saying that, if you were to own several pairs of boots, you'll get the most variety and mileage out of these styles (versus having a bunch of the same style).

I have all the styles you covered but I also think every guy needs an "actual work" boot that you can dig fence post holes in. In addition, if you live in a large part of the western USA, you need a decent pair of cowboy boots.

Wow, great videos. When other channels hae deteriorated in quality, u have improved a lot. Preserve this quality in future. Huge fan ❤️❤️

I'd argue the 5 everyone should have in order are:

1-2. Actual workbooks and a hiking/outdoor boot.
3. A Chelsea or more formal boot (Johdhpur etc.)
4. A chukka
5. A boot to wear with jeans ie. those discussed in your first 2 choices.

As a Canadian, I greatly enjoyed the Viberg shoutout. Regarding Viberg tho, I'd add that I owned a pair of semi-custom Rigger boots from them that cost about CAD $600ish a few years ago. These were lace to toe 7oz full grain triple stitched, Norwegian welted with nailed heals (the custom part) and 9oz iron leather insoles and counters. Viberg makes amazingly good products by hand but when their most robust field/work boot is $400 less than a casual day-wear boot, one should consider what exactly they are paying for.

The same could be said about RM Williams and their ever climbing price since LVMM -and many others - involvement. (I own a pair and adore them also)

I love a comfortable wedge sole and rugged pair of service boots for casual and a sleek leather Chukka for Semi Formal, growing up I used Doc Martens and Timberlands boots, now I use Redwings, Grant Stones and Allen Edmonds. Great video enjoy watch both of your channels! Thanks

I can't stress enough how much it's important to invest in high quality shoes. I never paid much attention because shoes are small when it comes to other clothes and I thought they are often overlooked since they are on your feet. Boy, how I was wrong. I saved around 250 dollars and went to local shoemaker. After 3 years of daily wear and only a bit of care plus shoetrees they still look new and they look like they are worth million bucks! I get so many compliments on them.

I love the look of those Allen - Spruce Kudu boots. Khaki is one of my favourite colours for clothing, so the colouring on these boots are right up my alley.

Thank god you put the RMs in there - it would have been un-Australian not to lol! Nice video guys!

TheModestMan can you please tell us what the brand of the jacket, maybe a link of the product?
Congrats for the video !

I'll add support for a good dress boot, but it probably depends a lot on climate. Where I live with quite a bit of snow during the winter, having an actual boot is a must, and a dress boot or two in the collection is a must!

[aolanikunisan]

I only own one pair of boots, but when I leave Alaska and actually live in a bigger city I would like to own more pairs for my own sake.

For me, You will never go wrong with a pair of Saint Laurent Wyatt Chelsea boots in black. Yes it’s expensive but personally the quality and style is fantastic.

Just picked up Ranch Road's service boots for 50% off in their warehouse sale! Can't wait to break them in.

I think it's time for you to get a fun boot brock! the green one is gorgeous

Hey Brock, I was eyeing a pair of Oliver cabell boots last year and have been looking for them for a few weeks. I can’t find boots from Oliver cabell anywhere. Do you know if they stopped making boots or if they only offer them seasonally?
