Yes please cut these in half!!! Ive been drooling over the red pair on their site and I wanna know if they stack up

I’m from northern Mexico and I know exactly what event you’re talking about. I love boots in part because of the smell. It reminds me of when my grandpa and my dad would take me boot shopping and when we would shine our boots, which we call “bolear”.

Bro spent 30% of the video advertising all of his collaborations

Mexico may have the best leather workers in the world. In my studies of life, I remember learning that Mexico and Spain have a rich history with cattle and leather. I believe Leon is the name of the city that is supposed to be the leather shoe capital of the world. Similar to buying a car from Germany or a katana from Japan. Mexico is cheaper than China labor wise right now, so there is that as well.

Guys typing: Not supporting Mexico! on their iPhones made in China and driving their cars made in Korea or Japan :D

would like to see their rough out loggers on the channel! Yeah support the USA first but Id sure rather support Mexico than China.

I bought my whites from Bakers. I worked with the owners on a custom set since I had an odd size. Nice guys, great to work with, very knowledgeable.

I got a pair in red or rogue I think they call it. The molded leather insole didn’t really break in *faster*, but it made the break in process far less agonizing. After a few weeks I had one loose thread on each boot which I cinched up with a lighter. Even after two months I still get some reddish dye on my socks when I wear white socks which I don’t do often. One sock liner has started to peel back, but the fit is so perfect for me I can’t notice it when I’m wearing them, only when I pull them off. Overall, these are fantastic boots. I may go with the 8” work boot next. That 55+ last is great for my feet. As for people criticizing them for not being made in America... I have a dozen pairs of made in USA boots, but I’m not confused as to why my Doc Martens aren’t made in this country. Leon Mexico has just as rich of a leather work and shoemaking history as Northamptonshire and Spokane, WA. Let these people keep making great boots.

Finally review8ng Drew's I've been waiting to see your opinion before purchase

Would love to see more from Drew’s!

I guess an important thing to remember is that Frank's comparably priced patriot is made in the US

I have had the 8" Combo Brown Loggers for a bit over a year now, and I love my pair. Took a bit to break in the leather, but that modified 55 last feels great and supportive. I've worn them for 24hr+ shifts as an underground pipeline technician, and my feet are not fatigued. They are a beast. When I need heavy work done, I wear those. When i need to be more nimble, I wear the JK OT, and when I'm on tarmac all day, I wear Whites Perry Select.

YES. Been waiting for this video haha. I absolutely love my Drews Loggers and my 8in work boots in rowdy leather with the mini lug sole. Crazy quality for the price!

I ordered the contractor as well and absolutely loved the fit right out of the box. You’re right the smell is absolutely wonderful, like a leather shop. They’re modified/molded 55 last was so comfortable and easy break in. This was my 1st PNW boot and had heard the horror stories on the break in. After 3 weeks wearing them, I immediately ordered their 8 inch smooth/rough out brown boot. Both pairs were delivered in 2-3 weeks, not 18-52 weeks. I still have a pair of Nicks Chelsea’s I had ordered 11/21/23 and still waiting to start production. I was also hesitant in the sizing until I sent my foot measurements to their team and they had recommended 2 sizes down from my brannok and not my usual wide. But i am so glad for their help in sizing being a FNG to PNW boots. If they had the contractor in rough out brown I’d order them as well. So price/fit/availability and 2 pairs of the quality boots for 1 pair of Nicks/Franks/Whites, gotta make you wonder….

Love these 2 channel videos.

Wooo been waiting to see a review on the Drew’s!

Thanks, I’ve been very curious about Drew’s. They look great.

Awesome : ) i wear the combo Loggers every day at work!! Got into PNWs bc of your channel 😁 They're just as good as my White's n Nick's

They remind me of the White's 350 Cruiser or Cutter boots. My Thursdays are made in Mexico and they are just fine. No flaws or defects. I have an easier time getting boots from there and then I do with China. When you cut them, you can see if they are built for the price. Would like to see some Russell's cut apart. Want to get a pair, but they cost as much as Whites or Nick's.

Awesome!! Have you ever dissected a pair of Unmarked boots? I’ve heard these are also stellar boots made in Mexico

Aw man I love my drew logger boots I'd be willing to send mine in if you want a pair to cut apart. Gives me a reason to get a new pair

Love to see a cut in half boot of the japanese brand "Rolling Dub Trio" !

I have a pair of these in a dark redish brown.....absolutely amazing. I prefer them to my other pnw boots and my redwings. Im happy to pay for high quantity and skilled labor regardless of origin. I followed the recommendation and went 1/2 size smaller, and the fit was perfect.

You got to.get the logger. It's made with thicker lether

I own this exact pair, and I also own Nicks and White. if we are talking about comfort, this modified 55 last is unbeatable, but my good-looking boots are the Nicks's urban loggers. I think if you want a pair of affordable PNW-style boots, this is the first choice.

I love my Drew’s! I would love to see a cut down and for you to review their loggers and/or their cowboy boots!

Regions of Mexico are well known for their boot/shoe manufacturing. They also have similar QC guidelines to the US. If you get boots from Mexico, be happy. Oh yeah, and these boots share a striking resemblance to White’s Cruisers.

Lots of boots are made in Mexico and they’re typically really well made. I had a pair of Drew’s loggers and they were damn good quality. I’d love to buy all American made but hey giving these a shot ain’t a bad idea in all honesty.

I would love to see a video on the loggers too. Great videeo

Definitely want to see a 10" logger boot cut through and review. I have a pair arriving here to Wales in a few days.

I got a pair of these in December at Baker's and they're my favorite boots! The leather really does look and age not very differently from Horween Chromexcel in Natural. Aesthetically, the leather less consistent and looks like less of the grain judging by what the rough side looks like. They are made larger than most other brands and I went a full size down from Brannock (a White's 55 last fits me perfectly in 10.5D and my Drew's are 10D and a little loose). I love the extra room in the toe box. I'm tempted to get another pair in the brownish red color, but realistically I'll probably keep saving for a pair of Nick's.

Yes yes I’ve been dying to see their loggers

I have these exact boots. Got them from Bakers for $250 as they were irregulars when I dropped by their store looking for laces. Would enjoy seeing them cut in half!

I've been looking at this exact boot for the last few days.

Definitely do the loggers!

Definitely want the loggers too

I have the 8” of this boot. It’s my motorcycle riding boots. They are a beast , love the quality and the price is outstanding. I have Nicks,Whites and Grant Stones and this are on par with the PNW’s. Beware, the Toe box is wide.

Got my Drews 10" Loggers back in Jan (Black Roughout) I can't recommend them enough, the only potential downside is the weight if your daily commute involves lots of stairs etc

Those are really nice. I try to limit myself to only American made boots or I would get carried away.

I just picked up some Drew's Contractors Rogue's. I have to return them as the sock liner has a funky crease and hurts my arch, plus I only went a half size down from my standing brannock of 12 and they're a little big, so I'm returning them for a replacement att size 11. I'd love to see what's going on inside. If you get a moment to cut yours in half I'd enjoy the insight. Enjoy all your videos, super informative, thanks!

Honestly im not surprised, with the sheer amount of tanneries and leather workers present they can produce some insanely high quality footwear at a lower price

I recently got a pair of their Mexican made loggers. The build quality and workmanship is excellent. However, they are more like a 6oz leather, and not the 7.5-8oz leather they advertise. The roughout versions also tend to be heavily sanded in the vamp to even out the finish, making it even thinner than 6oz. They are actually very nice boots, but keep that in mind when you get them. They are not NFPA rated boots I would recommend for firefighters or career woodsman. For that, stick to the MITUSA Drews Roughshot, Nicks, JK, Whites, Franks, etc. The Contractor series are probably the same or thicker, and I would definitely consider a pair of those. My roughout loggers are NOT nearly as thick as what Weston measured at 2.7mm.

I got a pair of this. Very nice boot and quality for 380.

I recommend their boot jack. Top quality, better than White's.

PLEASE do the Logger unboxing, I'm super interested in a pair...

I have your kilties in my Drew's rowdy smooth work boots and they look slick... still have not fully broken them in yet... but that is because I got my MTO Nick's... but the Drew's are killer feeling and looking so far. The rowdy has been acting kind of like a pred orange... just not patinaing as dark.

I am very interested in the unboxin and cut in half of the loggers from Drew's. Mainly cuz I can afford those sooner than the PNW. Yes cut these as well!!!

I am SOLD ordered a pair of roughouts Rose Anvil channel is why I started buying PNW style boots

I wore Red Wings for 15 years and they discontinued the lineman boot I always wore. I switched to Drew's Logger Boot two years ago and have been completing satisfied. Hard breakin but a great boot. 12 hours a day, 6 days a week. And 150 bucks cheaper on top of it all.

The upper circumference is way too big. I know you mention having small ankles, but the eyestays are touching together. I tried the rowdy 8 inch, and the upper was ridiculously large. Mine were more than an inch larger in circumference than White's. The overall construction was great for the price. However there were many big QC issues. One note on construction that I did not care for was that they used a stitch to hold down the bottom of the eyestays to the vamp. If you try to open up the eyestays to clean along where it meets the tongue, it pulls that stitch, which can be easily broken.

I ordered a pair of Drew’s loggers in Oct 2023 - they were happy to take my money. By Feb 2024 I hadn’t heard anything from them and had to call 4 times before I could get a straight answer which ended up being that the boots were still a month away (3 months longer than their advertised lead time) I said I wanted to cancel my order and suddenly the boots were only a week away! I still canceled my order to free up money to buy a pair of custom Jim Greens which came in a month. Drew’s could be the best boots in the world but if you can’t get your hands on them they might as well be an NFT.

Let's see more from them!

Iv been waiting on you to cut a pair of drews

The 10" loggers are killer

Pls do the logger really considering buying some

PLEASE cut them in half! Totally agree with their being lots of good arguments for/against foreign-made boots. I own boots made everywhere - I see them as just another flavor of boot to experience. If I was in the market for a boot like this, I'd consider them for sure.

Please do an onsite video with Baker Drews for how small their shop is in Oregon they are making some fantastic made in America stuff also...

They're cool but the leather blemish would drive me nuts until they got scuffed and beat up

Please do the loggers too!

I would love to see these cut in half. Their price with the build quality looks incredible! My only concern would be the quality of the leather. I don’t know anything about the Seidel leather corp.

These look great, I would really like a pair with a toe cap like iron rangers. I really like the way they changed the last I have wide feet and I really don’t like my toes being squished together they look great

The video starts at 5:00

Please make a logger unboxing as well as a cut in half for these guys!

Please do the loggers and review both I’ve been really interested but hesitant ( you posted this right after I went with the redwing moctoe bc of no info on these Drew’s )

Probably the best looking 55. I actually maybe get a pair, shame they don't have narrow versions of it. Linecutter seems the only one coming in c width. I hope you update us on the fit in the main video. With sizing down I always get that space between arch and ball of my foot that makes all kinds of pain so I'm curious to hear your experience

Yeah man, would love to see logger onboxing.

Guys, a few weeks ago i bought a pair of these same Drew's contractor boots from Bakers Boots. These are the best built boots i have besides my Chisos #2s. They were listed in their "final few" section. They were factory seconds for 295 bucks! They show the pic of the exact boot youll buy so you can see the blem. Mine just had a stitch or 2 that was long around the arch and IDGAF. Weston had noticed right away the pronounced arch - just like i did, lol. It was just right the second time i wore them, plus i got flat feet anyway so its probably good for me. For your reference i bought size 10.5D, im a true size 11D (11 inch / 28 cm). i wear 10.5D in Redwings and grant stone. Also, since they are in Oregon you won't get shanked for tax. For 300 bucks OTD, what more could you want?

This boots are next level, last 4 ever 🏆

Look Nice, take the 1/2” rubber heel block off and use a thin one theyd look less lady/lifting effect, pretty heavy tho

Maybe have a "Made in Mexico" series? There's Duradero, Dievier, Wilcox, Cordobes, and probably others I haven't heard of.

Those look good will buy if ready to ship is available , i dont buy if have to wait months .

In the video you went a full size down from Brannock. How did the boots fit? Were they to small or right on the money? Love the channel!

John Doe shoes, they make a specific to motorcycles with reinforcements for added protection.

The boots at 2:44 look polished. Maybe just new, but they look good.

Franks patriots anyone? $370 and made in spokane with everyone else to the same standards. Still shocked how few people know about them and even more shocked this channel hasn’t covered anything from Frank’s yet, and especially the patriot.

Would love to see both these boots cut in half but especially a review of the logger (rough out specifically for me) and how they stack up against the American boots, and particularly against Franks Patriot. Be cool to see 2 "budget" PNW boots go head to head. I live in the UK so shipping and tax is going to cost a fortune, these more affordable boots are probably the only way I could ever afford a pair of PNW boots Thanks again

Truman Boots!! When? 😊

Would love to see a cut-in-half!

Great looking boots! I’ve been eyeing up Drew’s boots for a while… I’m very interested in what’s on the inside. All thick leather I’m sure.

That 6" Rogue Smooth looks NICE. Definitely want to see the innards of this boot. Fire up the band saw!

I’m so excited that you’re looking at these. They’re dominating my Facebook feed lately alongside Craft & Glory ads. Thankfully Portland Leather and others similar to it have died down for me after you and Stridewise’s reviews came out. I’ve been intrigued by the Drew’s logger and Frank’s Patriot at that price point. Having a more approachable boot for us office working wannabes with the logger heal without a $600-800 price tag is exciting.

I love Mexico!!!!!!!!!

YES to Logger unboxing and cut in half! I am on the verge of buying a pair or will it be JK's? Or Drews? Man I can't decide!

I have slender ankle and shin too. The only boot that fit me is from Nick's , because they can size down the upper for me.

I don't care where my boots come from I pay for quality and price.

I am very interested in their Trevor cowboy boot as well. I would like to see how it stacks up against Chisos for almost half the price...

I want a wide dress shoe that’s made out of badass take-a-beating boot leather.

Please cut some Drews... they are on the blist of possible buy. I have Wesco, Nick's and Whites, looking to pick up Viberg, Truman and Drews to round out ... Drews seem to be a great value but I'd love to see the detail on construction that you can kind of only get with a cut in half video.

I would like to hear your opinion on the loggers.

The sides of the upper are touching over the tongue when you laced them up. That's only gonna get worse as they get broken in.

I want in 8” 😉

I received these exact boots last week. They are heavy duty construction. Will take some time to break in. Go 1/2 size down from brannock size. I have slightly wider feet at an E size. Ordered EE and they are too wide. The D size on this boot is more like an E with plenty of width and height so your feet don't get squished. Leather is not perfect and you will find some imperfections. Combination of a dressier work boot. They do have a heel so you will stand about 2" taller. Good boot for slightly wider feet with mid to higher arches. Pretty indestructible and 1/2 the price of other PNW boots.

Have the 8in logger. Yes get a pair and cut them

They look great. Sure, get the loggers.

I like those a lot. Very good looking boots.

I support boots from all countries

Would love to see the mini logger

Would love to see these compared to JK 300’s- which is the better $380 boot?

Woo Hoo!
