I swore to myself that I wouldn't buy any more boots. I have more than I will ever need. HOWEVER, a collab remake of the Japanese WWII boots may just break me down. They are just too cool!

Thanks to you Weston for having 2 of my favorites channels. Thanks to Trenton and Heath and Stridewise and your channels for giving me a better idea and appreaction of mens boots and other things as well. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Looking forward to what you do next year....

This channel is the reason I got a pair of iron rangers and officially entered the world of nice boots. The jungle boot video was an interesting one. I'm curious if there's anyone out there making a good new one. I'm a size 13 and 6ft 4in tall so finding originals of anything from that era that fits me is a struggle at best. Most of the companies that advertise the jungle boot as new are suspiciously cheap and seem like something for scamming people at gun shows

Glad you mentioned Palladium. They have an interesting French military history and I've owned pairs for years. They are cozy, cheap, and are great replacements for converse high tops.

Been waiting all year for this video!
A professional no biased opinion.
Awesome that you included wide toe box boots, it's all I can wear with my sasquatch feet.

I bought Redbacks on the strength of your reviews alone and loved them so much that I bought a steel-toed pair for work, absolutely brilliant 👏

[sackman]

Been a great year Weston! Would love to see more JK boots on the channel and see how they stack up vs Nicks, Whites, etc.

[danhubin]

Would you consider reviewing (and cutting in half) dedicated motorcycle boots that offer CE certifications? Would be a great series I think to see what's inside and get thoughts about comfort on and off motorcycles.

[JestRLee]

Thanks Wes for all you do...
We are all looking forward to everything you give us in 2023...
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year...

The fact that you still stick with the redbacks are a sign that they are good and comfy; so much you still wear them and not others😊

[goodknight]

I’ve been rockin the Thorogood Moc Toe for about a year now. They are absolutely the most comfortable boots I’ve ever owned. Perfect boot for me. (Finish carpenter mostly)👍

[hexum]

Great video!!! Please add some Allen Edmonds boots to your future videos. I'd also like to see dress shoes added.

[pageone]

Looking for a snow boot video. I wear the Columbia Artic and Omni heat boots. Would love to see what they’re made of and especially love the way you cut them apart.

[grapeapeductape]

That info on the jungle boot video was accurate! I ended up doing a presentation for my speech class over US army footwear evolution and used that video as a source!

[toeknee]

I love your videos but could you review or recommend some socks to wear with some of these boots? I have thoroughgoods which are so comfy it never mattered what socks I wore but I just got the Whites Perry's which don't have a counter in the heal and I'm getting raw. Are there socks that can help with that?

[Julius]

Dang! I was hoping the ND1 would make the list!
I was lucky enough to get a pair! They're, in my opinion, the most beautiful and well built boot I've ever purchased, and I can only say that because I trust your excellent tear downs & knowledge regarding boot design.

[khancrow]

My Iron rangers have exceeded my expectations. I am pretty harsh on my footwear but they have held up perfectly. I never experienced an uncomfortable break in period and can easily wear them 15 hours a day sometimes with no discomfort.

[OddsandSods]

Thanks for the breakdowns in all the categories. I have worn Blundstones for years but the latest pair has such poor quality I won't buy them again, Red Backs in the future. Now, one of the reasons I like them is I wear shorts all year 'round and I don't think most of the boots you just reviewed will suit not wearing pants. Can you provide suggestions, please. I do like the Lems but I have the trainers and am not sure the boots will suit for constant wear. Best Regards, Felize Navidad.

[IzziedeD]

oh man! i gotta go watch the jungle boot vid. i used to have a pair of those in the 90's that bought from a local surplus store! i'd nearly forgotten about it!

[MarkSmith-nric]

Thanks for all your great insight & information sharing. I’m 70+, retired, have knee & foot issues of course…
I really lik American made heritage type boots. My 8084 IR I use for Harley riding (Road King). 1000 Mile for casual outings.
Seems like so many Seniors wear sneakers, mostly New Balance, and very few boot wearers. Been riding motorcycles, hiking, hunting forever so boots for every situation.
Is there an all around, comfortable, heritage boot style, not brand specific, for the Senior that’s slowing down, not adventuring as
much?
Thanks for all you do😎
