Thorogood - bring back the 1892 line! Great boots. Love my Dodgevilles. The Cognac CXL patinas incredibly!

Great review. I like that they have speed laces and a Goodyear welt.

Just got a pair of 1892 Roofer Portage leather boots today. I typically wear 10.5D in sneakers, 10D in Thorogood work boots and ended up ordering the Portage in size 9.5D. Had to go down a full size and they fit like a glove. They're just as comfortable as my Thorogood Jump Boots and Troopers with the Gen Flex sole that I use for work. I love the interesting lace-to-toe style and the cushy insole. Much more comfortable out of the box than my Red Wing Moc Toes (which are also 9.5D if you're curious. P.S. I've been lusting over these Tomahawk boots for a while now. The 1892 collection is very underrated.

I love the Thorogood brand. Got myself two 6" moc toe boots (one steel toe, and one soft) and they are constructed extremely well. Wore the soft toe in Berlin and walked about 15-20k steps a day and my feet felt great. Highly recommend.

Your enthusiastic and detailed review of these boot is solely responsible for my decision to acquire a pair.

This boot is gorgeous! Some day. Currently breaking in some Chippewa Service Odessa boots. (1901m24). AWESOME!

Good review. I love the Thorogood Heritage boots. I own several pairs. Sizing wise I find I wear the same size in them I do in Converse Chuck Taylors, about a 1/2 down from my regular size. I have a pair of the Thorogood Roofer boots, the Beloit, Dodgville and green Tomahawks. I recommend any and all of them. I live in Minnesota and wear Thorogood and Red Wing.

Hey fellow-Chicagoan. Awesome looking boot. It is crazy to think that there is 200+ years of history to both Thorogood and Horween Chromexcel. Mind blowing.

You're killing me with these 1892 vids. Already have one pair...gonna drive me to buy another!

Just picked up a pair of Thorogood Portage in brown CXL off of Nordstrom Rack. Gorgeous boots. I normally wear a size 10D in most boots (eg AE Normandy & Billy Reid Anderson) and a 9.5D fit me perfect in Thorogood. If you dont have access to trying on boots in rl, you can look up the Thorogood sizing chart. For me the fit listed was spot on.

Would like to try the green ones. A little different and apparently have actual vibram lugged soles. From having 1k's as my first heritage boot, the cork/leather outsole turned into size 12 skates when weather got iffy. No Thorogood stores around here unfortunately.

These looked really nice in the Loden Green colour. Chunkier commando sole with a sturdy green leather that wouldn't get horribly marred with abuse. Wished I picked up a pair cause they would have made great festival boots.

Got a pair of cordovan Chippewa service boots my freshman year of college as an investment in quality footwear (plus I got a crazy good deal) but that's has been 6 years now and they're still going strong. It wasn't until I started working trades that I discovered thorogood boots and haven't looked back. if I didn't still love my Chippewa's so much I'd definitely be looking at these!

Great review, I wear the 6" Hertage Max wedge, they are the only boots I wear. I have recovered from plantar fasciitis using Birkinstock insoles just wearing the heritage boots. I'm looking at purchasing the Beloit or Tomahawk for my next pair. Thorogood boots have saved my feet!!!

I agree with M. Ogden, best looking boot I've ever seen. The cognac color is FIRE!!!

I’m with ya on being bias to thorogood I’m only 1.5 hours away from factory. Love the boots

I have a pair of the dodgeville’s they are super comfy, run a little large but probably the most comfortable boots I own. That includes red wing, wolverine 1000 mile and Allen edmunds Higgins mill.

I agree with you on the build. In general foot curvature like that pair in foot ware is more challenging to work on when your manufacturing it. Anytime, I tare off re-craftable shoes or boots with vibrams they seem to me to be built like a Panzer tank compared to others. They are still in pretty solid condition when they send them in to be re-crafted. I tip my hat to you for being realistic and appreciating the function of footwear not just looks/feel unlike several others. I’m looking at buying a pair of Thorogood boots just for outdoor use maybe walking my dog and or hitting the trail, working in construction etc. Any recommendations within the Thorogood USA made line? I try to wear more comfortable shoes for my 40 hr job i.e. shoe\boot company.

Love the way these boots look. Especially the green! Btw, do you have any opinions about the Ever Boot Moc Toe? ~$65. Worth a look maybe?

Thanks for such an in-depth review! Do these have a gusseted tongue? Also do you know if the green Tomahawks come with the removable insole as well?

I have the indigo Beloit 1892 and have ordered these and the natural color too. My indigo's are my favorite boots and are more comfortable than any of my chippewas or red wings

Are you talking about horweens? Had a delivery there this past week. Not fun backing a semi truck in there.

Great review!

The black version has the same Horween CXL leather but has no speed laces and uses a Polyped sole. Any thoughts on the black version especially the Polyped sole?

This is my favorite boot series ever and now cuz of covid there impossible 2 find and not in production

Beautiful. I wish I could try these on at a local dealer. Can anyone compare the size to the Red Wing #8 last (Iron Ranger/Beckman/Blacksmith/Rover)?

Man I could not agree more about traffic turning a 10 minute ride to over an hour, gotta love Chicago traffic.

Best looking boot 👢 I’ve ever seen!

I own the 1892 Dodgeville bought in 2018 and super hard to find now in 12. Best boots I have ever owned. My only complaint would be any scuffing is just going to stay there. I'm sure that's not a problem for most, but sometimes I wish I could take the finish back to almost new.

boot guy i need your help .iam a roofer looking to buy my first pair of thorgood roofers boots .there are no thorogood dealers even close to me any words of wisdom on sizeing or how to oeder them??????

Thoro full vibram bottom boots in ice are some of the scariest slippy boots I've ever had. Lol still love all my thoros, 814 3600 and 4600 are just terrible on glare ice. But are great every where else. I don't have these but like the way they look.

hey can you do a review on a pair of rocky boots doesn't matter square toe or lace up but take a look at a pair of rockys

Absolutely a great video.

Honestly looks amazing

Do these fit size wise the same as the 4200 Moc toes?

Not much info on these, shank material? come in half sizes?

These are sharp! Must have...some day.

Review the Chippewa 8" Walker w/p comp toe

I wish they’d bring these back. I got a pair of dodgeville’s on eBay and went with my sizing from my iron rangers. The thorogoods broke in faster and have held up just as well as the RW’s. I’d pick up these tomahawks as well as the beloits and Janesville moc toes.

THAT is a nice looking boot. I would pair with a honduran cigar and a glass of knob creek and a spiffy gun.

Damn ! And I thought my 814 plain toes were a nice looking boot, they are for a work boot but these are gorgeous. They sure put the iron ranger the same in the looks department, and honestly that's just the leather. These look like Brian they could be a custom handmade boot.

Hey BootGuy, think we could see a review of a pair of Tecovas?

Can you do a review on the Dodgeville? I really want a pair but can’t find much info on them, especially the Wheat Predator version.

Those look great !

This boots vs the Chippewa Whirlwind?

Cordovan..., these boots will look fantastic in cordovan/

What shop sells heritage thorogoods???

Where would u buy these online. I wear an 11 D in their steel toe work boots. Would that be the same size for the heritage then?.

i have bought more than 10 pairs of boots since the first day i watched this channel, sb stop me please!

now I want a pair

This boots looks great and I want to get them. But in general I became interested in boots very recently and there is a lot of things I just don't understand. For example, why exactly there is a stitches on the sole, isn't the sole supposed to be in contact with ground and dirt and water etc

Has anyone had these for a while and how do they hold up?

Why did they stop making them?

Beautiful looking boots. Real craftsman ship. But they seem a bit "uncomfortable" bring that the layout (not blueprint) is as basic as it can get. I have the wedges and they are soooo comfortable. Thorogood is an awesome company and should be on more feet ha ds down.

Great lookin' boot. I am a big fan of Horween leathers.

Hi Isaac, as you are aware, I have 4 pairs of T-Goods, one of which is the great black pair of portage. Going strong, along with two pairs of roofers and a black steel toe Omni. Great review on a stunning new boot. I will have to figure something out to get a pair. Say, when are you going to go to get the factory tour from Martens?

"Gonna have to try it on" Cool I'll just fly to America to try them on

Do Thorogood boots run large like red wings do????

I dont have longer socks for this bad boy.

It's not the type of boot I would wear,but that is a handsome pair of boots....... Is that horse hide,fro Chicago? I can't stop looking at your damn videos. I've always worn boots,over tennis shoes,but I'm becoming addicted....... Thank's for nothin'!!!

Nice boot.

I bought a pair and I spilled some whiskey a small drop on the toe and now its dried off a bit but I can still see it and it drives me crazy. How could I get rid of it ?

Boot great boots. Just wanted to ask you something. I had applied boot cream on the boots and polished it. Now after a few months my boots is drying. Can I apply the leather conditioner over the cream polish. Or should I remove the polish by using leather cleaner and then apply conditioner.

It appears the 1892 line has been discontinued... is that true?

Beautiful boots. Why would you ever want to get them muddy? To me they look more like a dress boot. Will order a pair now!

I wear a size 9 in Red Wing’s 8 last, what size would fit me?

DANG. IT LOOKS SO RICH.

How are Thorogood boots in hot weather?? Will they my feet sweat??

These are nice

Boot my man guy.

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME. I work in construction and auto body. I bought a pair of steel toe water proof yellow boots from timberland and they are KILLING my back by the time I get home. I couldn’t go to work today because my back is thrown out from the boots. I believe it is because it has a big heel and it is angling my foot down causing my back to be under immense pressure all day. Is there a flatter heel steel toe waterproof boot that will not kill my back?

Nice looking boots, but the front of the boots looks a little clownish. That's a deal breaker for me personally. Thanks for the great work you do, keep it up!

Call me crazy as a lot of people do. But if you are the Boot Guy and you have an EBAY STORE. Why then is it that you have no Boot listings or any listings period?

Bonjour de France. Je trouve ces boots vraiment très belle.

to bad Thorogood doesn't make this boot any more can't find them

Yesssss

Where can I buy these?

There ok ..

So they have more 1892 boots than the Dodgeville, eh. Will have to stop calling my Dodgevilles 1892s!

Local prices guys??

Just bought a pair of for $75 from Nordstrom Rack of the Roofer. The quality is great but lie you, i prefer a hard leather footbed that molds to the foot like RW Heritage. Underneath their insole is another layer of foam glued on. It makes my feet very sweaty!

Love mine

HOTTT

This boot would suck if you were to go off roading in it.

Would have been perfect if it has lug soles

Beautiful Leather,but i dislike Thorogood Boots !

These look nicer than the RW iron rangers do, sure they look nice but a bit ugly in a few ways compared to these.

thumb is too much for me. im more like a pinky finger. lol

Too bad you can't actually buy a pair

Nice looking boots, but I don't like the branding on the exterior. I'm not a walking billboard.
