Shoe sizing really is a nightmare. These companies need to improve the standardization of their products. Not only does it vary within the same brand, it also varies within the same make and model (especially if variants of that model are made in different factories). There can sometimes be a full size difference in the same make/model shoe that are made in different factories.

Maybe a good way to get interest in boots and shoes during the summer would be to do some videos on hiking boots and shoes- you could start with super lightweight trail runners, move on to Merrells or Oboz, Lowas, Salomon’s, and finish with Limmer Boots (made in US or Germany heavy leather hiking boots).

Regarding sizing, I am from England and have a reasonable collection of shoes and boots, mainly made in Northampton. I take a 10f and all my English boots and shoe's are the same size to within two mm. The boots are bigger than shoes obviously but rolled from heel to toe all boots match so do shoe's. Brands include, Loak, Cheaney, John white, Grenson, Alfred Sargent, church. The only exception is a couple of pair with a pointed toe box which need to be a little longer, still 10f though. I have just brought some iron rangers and have gone down half a size, they are however slightly narrow. So it would seem it has allready been done here in England, perhaps American companies need a couple of hundred years more to catch up. Just pulling your leg, love watching both your channels All the best mate John.

I'd settle for companies posting a downloadable sizing guide. Print it out, step on it, and that's your size. Like what comes with some of those "trim to fit" insoles.

I am a ski instructor with oddly shaped feet so I spend a lot of time working with the boot fitter. I wish I could do that with shoes/boots. It's so nice to sit down and have somebody look at my foot and pick out a boot that fits. Part of that I realize is that we're not interested in the look of the ski boot, like we are with a shoe. But I'm here for comfort and performance, so let's get a good performance fit on my daily wear.

There is a couple of problems with sizing footwear. First is that feet aren't standard & a Brannock device doesn't measure every difference. A perfect example is that a Brannock device doesn't measure if you have a narrow heel. Or a high arch vs a flat feet. Second, every shoe or boot has a different last. And how every different foot fits that last is going to vary. So how do you standardize all of those combinations? I think a Brannock device gets you close, but if your foot isn't completely ordinary you might need some fitting advice to get a good fit for that particular last.

We live in the age of technological marvels. Surely with a little bit of effort some savvy developer could create a phone app that -- using a few photos of your feet taken from proscribed angles and including a printed sizing reference -- could accurately estimate the necessary measurements.

Some brands do brannock accurate sizing. Viberg and Sagara come to mind.. And yes those are 2 brands you should feature. A 310 would be a good example and interesting to people. The construction will be the same as a 2030 with a few extra features. Then a Sagara boondocker or Cordmaster would suffice, I know Bagus too and he’s a good guy. He may even provide you one. I think what that guy was talking about was brands like that and more fancy Edward Greene stuff.. meh. People who have an interest in those obscure brands aren’t watching KZfaq like that. Viberg, Sagara, Truman like someone said in the comments, Oak Street is long overdue. JULIAN BOOTS is a brand overbooked constantly.. curious about their design along with everyone else. You would be the only source of info on them lol. Their designs are a lot like the RRL boots (also cool). OMG i almost forgot, those WW2 REPLICA BOOTS!!! From “At the Front” or “SMwholesale”. They look so cool, 270 welt and leather everything.. but you can’t get any REAL construction information. I as well as other boot enthusiasts have discussed it, it seems like they get overlooked. Though in reality it may be competition for say a Thursday🤷🏻‍♂️ it’s a WW2 roughout service boot, 270 gyw, leather midsoles/insoles.. makes you wonder Wes.. Boondocker Sleeper🤔

Pants (think Levis) have vanity sizing, especially around the waist. they do this so that if you are a true size, for example, 38-inch waist, they market Levis as a 36 or 35 so you get flushed with endorphins in the fitting room so that you can feel that you can finally squeeze into a smaller size. You then believe that "fantasy size" is what you are....until, that day when you have to shop a formal/ tailored pant and the tailor suggests a 38 or 40?! REALITY CHECK!

Two points - firstly social media companies are probably cautious about anything involving firearms because of their international reach. In countries like mine, the UK, there are strict firearms laws and restrictions on any form of advertising or other promotion. Secondly, with regard to footwear sizing, I know of at least four different systems - American, British, European and Japanese (doubtless there are others). The Brannock Device doesn’t seem to be an international standard since there is no agreed international standard. It’s the same for clothing sizes. It does help when shoemakers provide guidance on their sizing. I don’t know how far US shoemakers go in doing this but on this side of the Pond I’ve noticed that Crockett and Jones and Trickers give detailed advice on sizing. Crockett even go so far as telling customers how to trace their foot and take a measurement and they’re happy for customers to send them measurements for additional advice. The other difficulty, of course, is that last shapes sometimes mean that a shoe of a certain size will fit some but not others.

Hi, love what ya'll do. I'd love if you covered running shoes and I hope you break into the running review segment because there are so many new shoes coming out and iterations and foam and foam and foam. I bought a pair of New Balance Rebel V3s because they had wide sizing and they're good for the kind of running I do. I think approaching running shoes kind of requires a runner's criticism because otherwise all the shoes seem kind of the same and minute differences might be missed. I understand that minute differences might mean less than runners think they do but I also think viewership is dependent on these minute differences, like the headphone review world. Good luck and have fun :^)

Mr. Brannock should have gotten a Nobel prize. The problem isn’t really what you call your size if every manufacturer can use the Brannock and likewise every buyer knows their real Brannock too. I recently visited Spokane and each time I was measured the given associate completely ignored my “arch length”. One even looked at me sideways when I brought “arch length” up and he did their sizing videos on KZfaq. Arch length, i.e. heel to ball is the most critical measurement. I spent decades in shoes too small until I ordered a pair of Wesco’s from a guy who knew how to use the Brannock device and how Wesco sizing translates. Your foot bends in a particular place because you have bones. Boots bend in a particular spot, because they are designed to. If your boot doesn’t want to bend where your foot bends you got problems. You have to consider this anatomical fact and work too find a boot that bends where your foot bends. Sock strategies and inserts can solve volume and assist with width fit but there is nothing you can do if your heel to ball is off more than say 1/2 size +- and the result will be difficult break in at best and damaging your feet at worst. That’s my two sense, anyway.

can you please just say collaboration, for some of us older people. for me acronyms are a slap in the face, the ones that know what they mean i guess feel good about it. but for all the rest of us who don't , well let's just say we don't. as a older guy who had followed your channel since the beginning i would like to keep following. i am a part time leathercrafter who like learning and you do a good job with spreading the word.

Would definitely like to see a running shoe series, I would love to see you cut apart the Diadora ATOMO V7000, Diadora advertises it and a few of its brethren as the only athletic shoes made in Italy. Its cool from a labour ethics standpoint because most athletic shoes are made in Vietnam/China etc but I'm curious if that "made in Italy" tag confers any actual difference in construction quality.

They say buy the Brannock, but what does Redwing use to make their sizes? I take 8.5, Redwing said try a 6.5ee? So how do they size feet?

Run your pro 2A stuff under a different LLC. To protect your primary brand. But keep the 2 completely separate, and use media options that are already pro 2A.(not legal advice 😂)

id like you to make videos of you and your team making boots and resoling (re-sole-ing?) boots and maybe open up mail in resoles or repairs, maybe going above and beyond by colabbing with nicks getting some thick leather doin some leather shanks doing the double thick vibram soles with the screws n whatnot yknow, that would be cool

While shoe/boot sizing is a huge pain in the ass, I can somewhat understand as well. It's so much more complicated than just length and width. Do you have a high instep or low, do you have flat feet or need more of an arch, do you have bunyons or some other thing going on, do you have one foot longer or wider than the other, is your foot more or less flexible, do you prefer a looser or more snug fit in the forefoot or midfoot or heel or ankle, do you have thicker or skinnier ankles, long or short toes, more or less ankle mobility? So many factors.

Great video, Weston. I watched the first IR video you posted on your new channel, but now it's gone. What happened to the video?

My idea about screwed up, nothing the same in shoe / boot sizing is they do not give a crap. So much of the industry really does not care. They make what they make, chuck it at us, then say take it or leave it. I and everyone else needs footwear, so we will muddle through and after many years of messing around, find a company, a size they make that sort of fits, then they drop the model and all bets are off. I mainly wear boots. If I cannot try them on, it is pointless. I have to be able to try them on. Only my foot knows. I did that with cowboy boots a while back at Cavender's in San Antonio. I was there for over an hour. Finally got a pair I could feel OK with. Turns out it was a 9E, not D, not EE, which are always the most widely offered. So aggravating.
