While shopping for leather boots, or any leather product for that matter you will hear many different terms -- Genuine leather, full grain leather, faux leather, leather texture, etc. and you may ask, how do I actually get the highest quality leather out there? And the one answer most of the time is to see the product in person, feel it, and feel the quality and kind of leather that is being used and decide for yourself if it's satisfactory for your standards. In this video, we will tell you what signs to look for when shopping for a leather product, and how you recognize high-quality leather, from low-quality over-processed leather that you may find on cheaper leather goods. One thing for sure, good leather isn't cheap, so if a product is cheaper than the competition then there is some corners being cut that might not be visible right away so watch out for that!

I'd hate to be the guy with the fake Dr. Martens in the video who paid to have Nicks work on it and then you see a video of it being completely dunked on XD

What about the rather rare naugahyde animal? I'm sure that's real hide, huh? Very good video, thanks!

Previous Next FINISHING “At this point, the tanned, dyed, conditioned and soften hides are almost ready for delivery. They’re sprayed one more time with a mix of special waxes for feel and protection, then with polyurethane for abrasion resistance. Finally, they’re ironed to render the surface smooth and even. A final grade is given and the leathers are shipped. The entire process takes around six weeks, which is exponentially more than the chrome tanning, but the results speak for themselves.” W&C uses polyurethane on there leather?

Does it have a Nicks stamp on it? If it does it's real leather ❤

I recall they said that that was a one and done deal. Doubtful there will be another run

You know someone's a professional when he can smell the leather and identify the tannery by the bouquet....

In summary, just buy your boots from Nicks!

It's hilarious how much you become a snob for good quality leather after buying good quality boots and point out horrible leather quality to other people

Please call the Thurman last maker and tell them to hurry up. I’m dying a slow death of anticipation and anguish.

I wake up every morning check the lead times and then walk aimlessly around the house lost in my thoughts wondering what the first steps in my builder pros will be like. It’s almost like the BB gun in the Christmas Story.
