It’s always crazy seeing the nails sliced in half by the bandsaw. Cool video. Glad to see you cut the whole thing in half with the saw instead of cutting the uppers up with a knife.

Thanks for taking the time to cut that boot in half. Looking fwd to the part 2. Looks like a well build boot.

Frank’s Patriot is a good contender too, and if made in USA matters to you you cant beat the Franks. I have the Drews and dont think anything less of supporting craftsmen in Mexico. This really is a top tier boot for the money.

Do you think the smooth leather inside the shaft is more comfortable? I ask, because I wonder if it being smooth could lead to more sliding with heel lift when walking.
@maxwellhouseranch1004 Жыл бұрын
I enjoy the smooth inside. Some boots like Whites, Wesco charge to have leather lining, having all roughout gives the durability and that smooth leather lining without the charge for it. To answer your question, no, it doesn't make your heel slip.
@MemphisCorollaS Жыл бұрын
I wondered the same when I saw that the counter area was smooth too. I thought it would be a roughout counter cover and a smooth shaft. Makes sense not to create a raised ridge from the edge of that or not to make an unnecessary failure point inside of the boot.

they may have some sizes in stock if you don't want to wait for custom but the fit issue is where I had the trouble. but if you're buying custom they're still gonna run $600 instead the $350
@thanatio472 Жыл бұрын
They'll only take 3-4 months if they don't have your size in stock, otherwise, you should get it in a few weeks. You'll know if it says build to order instead of add to cart on their website.

Factory Seconds? I would LOVE to know if they're the ones they sent me that I had to return for fit issue. I'm sure they're pretty much all leather on the inside with way too tight opening to get foot into and then giant toe box two or three times too big, blah, blah.

They said they "improved" on the 55 Last or whatever but I still haven't heard from anybody what was wrong with it in the first place that they didn't send me one of those to check out and compare with this one to see if it was really an improvement. I never got the second boot on my foot so I can only say that the left one didn't fit at all.

@@brianesterly9224 Not necessarily wide but HUGE [so probably too long more so but could not accurately judge this overall size as one could by standing in both], which may suit some people if they can get their foot in through the narrow opening, but then it should probably be called by the name of that other last that White's and Nick's call #79 or is it Toe #4 instead of #3 perhaps? I mean, if you're willing to pay for return shipping if you can't wear them, then they are a lower price alternative.

Cool. In previous videos, you said you would compare the 10 inch vs the 8 inch boots. And, also do a care video. Are you still planning on that? Is there a way to make the rough out boots look like a smooth finish? Does Drew’s have an option on the logger boots for a lower heal? I think I might have trouble with a 2 inch heel. Finally how do you think Drew’s compares to the top brands like White’s Nick’s and JK? Thanks
