1:21 people who refuse to support Mexican made products better keep that same energy about Canadian built products and arguably about Caribbean vacation resorts. That’s all included in our North American trade partners and immediate neighbors. They better be going out of their way to support products made in Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Hawaii, and Guam too. If not, then maybe our energy can be better used making sure products we buy are made responsibly, benefit the people making them, and don’t cause suffering (beyond hard manufacturing labor) for other people & their communities. Thanks again for doing this long term review series on these boots. The Drew’s loggers and contractor 6 in are near the top of my heritage boots to get lost thanks to mainly you and Carl Marowski.

That brown 8" looks so damn good. Thanks for all the videos on the Drew's Logger! I think this might be my first PNW boot. My fear is it will ruin me for all other boot styles. 😂

Great video. The boots looks killer. Leon makes wonderful boots and they have been for a VERY long time. Certainly a worthy option at a much lover price than most PNWs. People have choices on what they buy and where it was made. Get what you like and done worry about what others say or think!

I got the 8 inch black rough out 1 full size down from brannock in a 8.5. Fit is perfect. The fit and feel is every bit as good as my whites.

Got mine because of you and I do have to say that most people are sleeping on these. I do recommend going down a full size from brannock for anyone interested.

Ordered a pair a month ago, got them in, a little too big. Great company, sent them back, got the pair exchanged and my new pair is arriving Tuesday. They do run large in width. Was VERY IMPRESSED with the quality of my initial pair, stitching, leather, soles. Looking forward to receiving my boots! Love these things! And I’m going to hammer them.

Great video. Thanks! I was looking forward to a video like this. The toe shape is holding up. That leather toe box used is doing the job well.

Bought a pair last summer. Sticking with these

Got a pair in 10d of the 10in all black roughout loggers and their 8in rowdy work boots with the mini lug soles. Absolutely love my Drews!

Good looking boots. Drew’s is next on my list

I brought the 8"logger boot about 6 months ago, never had a pacific northwest boot before but I wanted to try them out. I like the boot overall, they fit my foot really well and I have to say that they are more boot than I am used to, they are much heavier than my red wing moc toe or iron ranger. They will outlive me. I come to realize that I only use them when it is cold and also snowy outside. They gave me knee pain in the beginning but as I got used to the weight, the pain went away. If I worked outside in the dirt or climbing up hills, these would be great. But for finish carpentry where I am going up and down ladders or kneeling constantly, they are a bit too heavy, red wings is a better choice for the work I do. I will keep them in my collection and rotation because they are pretty cool boots and you never know when you need them to kick some butt.

Nice One! Great review 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Amen you are💯% right tell people ck your clothes your auto phone tv etc I'm bout to get me a pair 👍

Thought about buying a pair. But not made in the USA was a deal breaker.

I got the ten inch in brown roughout, and they are the best quality boot iv ever had and my favorite. They are literally just as good if not better then nicks or White's that iv had

Thinking about getting a pair soon, they seem to be really good quality

I have one pair and the boots is great product I'm satisfied

I ordered a pair about a month ago. It took maybe 6 days and I had them. Faster than I ever thought. I ordered nicks a month ago and they said about 2 more months.. i haven’t been able to really put my Drew’s to work because it started to warm up a lot lately I been waiting for the right job to bust them out. But they feel unbelievably durable and solid. I do alot of residential work indoors so I wear whites perry select moc’s tobacco stamped and they are amazing for indoor work.

I am a 12D and went down a half to 11.5D. Length is perfect. No way I could have sized down more than a half. I do find them slightly wider even in a D width. Not sloppy, but slightly wider than other brands. Put some thin inserts in them.

Thanks for the update ! I just ordered mine and I can't wait to get them .What do you put on the Black boots oil or wax and why ?

I want a pair of those

HEADS UP!!! I just got my Drews loggers in 10" Black Combo. They are a $350 boot, not even close to a $600 PNW boot for less just because it's made in Mexico. . 1. Drews needs to change their description. The leather in my boots is NOT a 7.5-8oz leather. It is 6-6.5oz at best. I have a pair of Wesco Jobmasters (~$400 on sale), which are rated at 6.5oz, and the Drews are almost the same in the shaft and less in the vamp. My Nicks Roberts are 6.5-7oz W&C EB, and they are noticeably thicker and rated at 6.5-7oz. The lower vamp of the Drews has been heavily sanded to the point where almost all the roughout is gone, and has some smooth spots. They add an inside liner, which makes it almost as thick as the shaft leather, which is quite disappointing. The roughout leather for the vamp is very thin. 2. The overall build quality is EXCELLENT, so I don't blame the workers. However, the leather is a C grade in the vamp, and maybe a B grade in the upper shaft. -- I would NOT recommend these for actual Woodsmen or Firefighters. They are a good solid boot for an average homeowner for doing chores, and cutting some firewood etc, but not a real professional grade leather boot. For that, you need a reputable name like Nicks, JK, Whites or Franks.

The wait times and prices have increased. The price increase is $30 which is still worth it considering what you get. Their wait times have become something more like 4-5 months. I was offered a pair that were returned and I took them. They were received 4 months after my order date and my original order would've been built 5 months after I ordered them.

I work on huge grading sites with either mud or dried mud everywhere, how have these held up to rough terrain and how good is the ankle support on those?

How are they for comfort on the bottom of your feet? I have a pair of PNW boots and I find the uppers very comfortable, but the leather soles are just really hard. So, that is a downside.

Ive seen quite a few mexican cobblers build amazing boots n have no qualms with ordering a pair..

Will they be offering these in a safety toe sometime soon?

How far down in size from your sneakers? Or iron ranger size? I got mine the same size as my iron rangers and I hope they fit.

Having a tough time deciding between 10inch or 8inch…. Hmmm 🤔 😭

It's been 7 months, and still haven't gotten mine yet. Everyone else seems to be getting them in only a couple months. I'm not sure why that is.

1:19 Just going to have to disagree here, there is nothing wrong with not buying them because they aren't made in the USA. How would you feel if it was your job that you lost because it was shipped overseas? If you want to buy them go ahead but there is no reason not to buy Made in America if you live here, especially when there is a product competing at the same exact price point and has options like a safety toe that these don't.

Do you know what last Drew’s uses? Also, there are 23 countries in North America, of which Mexico is one, so technically you’re still “buying American”. 😆 Yes I’m pedantic.

Only buy made in America. What a shame.
