I'm a landscaper, going on 4 years of it now, I absolutely love what I do. I love all ur videos and no joke I wanna work for u if I ever move to Minnesota haha

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks Ryan and happy you love what you are doing !

[@YourSavant]

WTF is up with the blurred square?

[@justinx5932]

Mid April will be 2 years with my first pair of keen work boots. Best boots I've ever had. I also wore red wings prior to keen . The boots in the video are actually men's Davenport, not Mt.Vernon. Davenports are insulated and have the traction mentioned. I highly enjoy appreciate your videos. Keep up the great work!

[@mlemmon9232]

5:50 “what is that? Is that a dog?” “No” had me dying lol

[@mikemalone6862]

Lmao he even skip edited their conversation😂😂😂💀

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

😅 maybe he didn't want the authorities called 🤔 hmmm....

[@yohnivillarodriguez1]

He edited because we all know it's illegal to have a wild animal lol.

[@michaelmactavish1728]

not here few here in canada adopts them as pets and protects them from dangerous hunters wich there friendly and playful little things :)

[@Fosh51]

That would be like a new "Here's Your Sign" joke for Bill Engvall.

[@jasonaikens9735]

I wear workbooks 12+hrs a day 7 days a week...in all terrains in oil and grease on concrete etc.have tried EVERY boot that I have come across...so far the most durable and comfortable are "timberland pro logger" (and have zero use for every other timberland) they really stepped up their game with that specific boot! Found ur channel on accident and absolutley love it! U seem like really good ppl! Enjoy life and have a good Christmas to u and your family!

[@richardbrauer5950]

Keen Detroit 8" saved my foot from being cut off...or at least saved the tendons on the top of my foot from damage. I've worn keen Targhee IIs through Africa, Afghanistan, The Teatons, The Long Trail in Vermont, and countless other ventures and job sites. They are my favorite band of boot.

[@ChunkyMonkaayyy]

Haha that intro was great! Good catch.

[@budwoodman1716]

Nice pet. Her face looks like that werewolf in that kids cartoon, 'Hotel Transylvania".. LOL

[@jeffmoore2351]

So Stan what's the upshot of the boot situation ,still wearing the keans or gone back to Redwings. I use A/T Olivers but I am replacing every 12 months. Thanks again. Aussie Jeff

[@billthompson5644]

Most definitely one of your better videos, that was pretty cool with the fox. I was a floor installer for 17 years, the company went out. After that I ran tire shops. I've always used Wolverine or Red Wing,because they're so durable, I sprayed them with Camp spray it waterproofs them. Working on cement floors all day my whole life my feet feel great when I get off work. They really take a pounding, and they last and, they're made here in OUR COUNTRY!!

[@YourSavant]

Red Wings are made all over the world now. They do have a plant in China

[@XsnipxrmainX]

I found you after searching cool tools And now im here after searching about boots. I also watch the work you do. Got me hooked.

[@jamesvandyke7318]

I've tried dozens of brands of workboots. The only boot I will wear now is Keen Coburg. They are the only boots that last a season in my line of work. They keep my feet warm in negative temps and are very durable. Would recommend Keen boots to anyone. Love them

[@JMonty2012]

Keen is an amazing brand. They are the only boots that last me. The different styles they have for different conditions are great too. Plus they give veterans 50% off on their site. Cant go wrong with that.

[@vjmaslow000]

Love my keen boots. I used to only wear Red Wings too and my dad's boss let him try a pair of his keens and he never gave them back so I had to try them and now it's all we own. Many of the models are made in Oregon but many are also made over seas. I really like the Milwaukee model and the Tacoma model.

[@mrrobvs]

This is painful. Does he ever show the boots?

[@kyletaylor5452]

🤣🤣🤣 yes he does. They're the Keen Mt Vernon's. And believe it or not, he seems to actually be a fan of them. I kept waiting for him to slam them.

[@krystianwenc9289]

What a beautiful fox, Stan!

[@zako9667]

5:50 “what... what.... what is that?” Lmaooo

[@benhamilton8027]

How are the boots holding up? I'm in the market and I've had a pair of redwings last for 10 years hard work and I'm wondering if these have the durability. Thanks

[@bwtupper]

Stanley . . . Do you recommend these boots for summer? Great videos! I love your passion!

[@Volcomej1]

It’s funny every time I watch reviews I usually tune the people talking out and just watch the product cause I feel like most of them are paid actually ors basicly so they give good reviews but on this channel I always take his word lol he just seems like an honest dude

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thank you Shawn

[@killerar15]

The guys at my work love them, but I'm a redwing guy myself. My question to you is have you tried the Irish setter line from redwing? My feet stay dry, warm and in a 12-16hr day still comfy. I currently have their side zip composite toe safety boot with memory foam inserts ( that's how they come) they aren't insulated but it's my go to Summer boot.

[@billzygmunt4163]

I love my Kevlar Redwings for when im working construction and on the ground, when Im roofing my kevlar redwings are no good, which is a given, they are not intended for this, now I wear a pair of Keens for roofing and they are amazing, I have used them doing ground work and they are amazing too.. thanks for the video, now everytime we ladder up the crew now all wear Keens..

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thank you Bill and thanks for watching !

[@j.inlighten4020]

I bought my first pair of Keen hikers this year, and for a guy that has wide feet what a great fit. They are very light weight and comfortable, very impressed.

[@dougfrench4274]

What size do you wear and how well do they hold up

[@j.inlighten4020]

@@dougfrench4274 size 12, hikers, they hold great, got covered in mud. Just wiped them off, and they look brand new..

[@Comiefornia]

Red wing 606 with superfeet soles are one of the most comfortable boot on the market.

[@brianmaher1701]

I have been wearing the Keen Milwaukee (waterproof, steel toe) for 5-6 years. I get about a year out of each pair, but I usually have 2 pairs and switch them up so they don't get too stinky. I do mostly landscaping and a little carpentry

[@607703]

I love keen work boots!! When I worked for cintas we used them and I use keen boots for my job as a window cleaner. They grab very very nice on roofs and ladders

[@chadhall2593]

ive work keens for years. i cant wear another boot or shoe. you're right about knocking the snow off the bottom. i've found if i kick the sides together its a little easier. great review.

[@bella5241]

chad hall sub to me I sub to you

[@kylebrandes3018]

how would you think those boots would do in a heated shop all day? would they get too warm on you? just looking for a good pair of work boots for the winter. work in a body shop where most the day is inside but when you gotta go out to get a car or just look at a job my feet get wet right away then i got wet feet the rest of the day which is LAME!

[@PaulPeck]

Crazy like a fox! 🦊 Now I know where that term comes from. Haha... Great review too man! -Paul

[@doitrightcmrs3373]

[@fordinpossession]

Ive had the best luck with my Thorogood boots over the years and ironically I haven’t had a Red Wing that has fit my feet well enough to continuously use them. I might give the Keen’s a try as long as they make a wide platform. Their standard hiking boots feel good but fit small over all.

[@PortDixieandTheJourneyDogs]

One of the biggest things Keen is known and popular for in the outdoor hiking world is being a nice wide broad boot!! Many run super small and tight! But Keen and Merrell run wide esp Keen! Both r known for extreme comfort! I'd kill to have a pair!! Or another pair of Merrells! But no money don't buy shoes of any kind....

[@grominwithrob1339]

Redwings kill my feet because I have wide feet. Keens have nice wide boots. I’ve never found such a comfortable boot as my Keen Pittsburg. I really want to try the Philadelphias but my Pittsburgs are indestructible so I’m going to just buy them because I want them, not because I need to. 😂

[@jeffmcclure4995]

It's now nearly August of 2021 and wanted you to know I was a printer for 20 years so on my feet most of the day. The best shoes I have found after trying Red Wing for several years is the Keen sparta style targhee. I tie em up to where I like them and then slip my feet in and out whenever. Funny video, thanks for sharing and love the fox.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@gastongarre590]

Totally different style of boot but my preference is the Chippewa super logger

[@MrWhoevr]

Chippewa is the affordable, quality boot maker.

[@thomsen59]

You had me at "Pet Fox". Awesome.

[@goreeb1]

I'm from MN too and I wear the Keen Flint mid steel toes, almost all year round. they are comfortable and help keep my feet dry from sweaty feet.

[@bjgarbacz1]

Love all the videos are how often u upload now

[@loganbaker4992]

so would you buy the boots and wear them daily or just for in the snow and mud and such?

[@renegranados7436]

I just bought a pair of. Baltimore Keen boots and they felt like sneakers ..best boots I ever had and the odor and sweat system that these boots have is amazing.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Cool stuff, thanks for sharing Rene!

[@chrisl2090]

See that's the reason I wear boots because I hate sneakers.

[@dougfrench4274]

What size do you wear, lace up or slip on

[@jameskingston9427]

What is your final verdict please on the Keen Philadelphia work boot you were testing in another video I can't seem to find?

[@jarikoltuniak1181]

My boots started to unglue on the front toe cap portions and in the end they took care of me! Keen is a seriously great company!

[@Daynaleo1]

Great video. Living in Central Texas, ice is not an issue unless you knock your sweet tea over. It’s the heat that will get to your feet. My favorite boot as a remodeler is the- Red Wing Heritage Chukka, short boot with a crepe wedge sole.

[@gabemalcolm4429]

You do the best reviews Stan!

[@Rotisseriechicken1200]

This guy is an amazing salesman. The way this video is setup and structured. Perfect sales pitch.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks fir viewing Bryan !

[@qcn_cummins4146]

I love my Keens they are the best boot I have found! I am so surprised by how light they are for a steel toe boots!

[@trevorm7013]

“Is that a dog?” “No” lmao

[@buffaloaf8205]

Idk what was better that or the intro when he caught the box

[@EnigmaticPeanut]

i had a keen winter boots that i loved, very durable, to a point i overestimated their toughness and ended up abusing them. they broke as any boot would. overall, i think it was one of the best small winter boot i had, and i tried many high quality ones.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Cool! Thanks for sharing that Rene

[@shiftedproductions1629]

Thank you for the advice

[@Dirtmonkey]

Hope it helps!

[@kennydean2595]

Only shoe I've found that is actually waterproof is the keen targhee. Tried several name brands and they all don't keep out water. Keen is the only way to go.

[@flightographist]

Tried them all in heavy work, forestry, landscape and solar construction and utility distribution audits ( ditch humping mostly). Using Thermics now; although a bit heavy they are a serious "all wheel drive" boot, comfortable shock absorption, armoured shins, and form fitting which means your feet and ankles have all-around support and not as hot as you would think.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks for sharing 👍

[@ezekielwillmott9735]

I’ve had my keen boots for a couple of years now, fantastic boots

[@EricRoy85]

Red Wings "Irish Setter". Best boots I've owned and no break in time whatsoever. Comfortable right out of the box. Beautiful fox man. Thanks for the video

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks Eric !

[@rememberussliberty1822]

Ive had bad luck with irish setter

[@40lostyears]

Mighty Moe Excavating likes the flooring in your house and figures u need a longer leash for the 🦊 fox! Excellent review on the boots that are made CHINUSA??? Ty for the entertainment

hillarious :D the weather may be frozen but the attitudes still sunny :)

[@ramonmunoz513]

What is a good boot for running on asphalt work boots steel toes

[@calebjewell3173]

I have a pair of the keen hiker type composite toe boot. Three years and still going. Great boot. Up and down a truck ramp as well

[@kiwdwks]

I went from Redwings to Keen. I found them more comfortable. I'm on my second pair of Keen's and I do have a complaint about the soles...both pairs have split across the width of the sole. Both splits happened somewhere around the first and second year of use. Mind you that I'm wearing the boots almost everyday. Never had a pair of Redwings soles split...just worn the soles out. Come to the conclusion that comfort might be the determining factor vs. how long they last...

[@Dirtmonkey]

Yes, the comfort is really important. Thank you for watching Mark !

[@bjgarbacz1]

So the link you have isn't to the ones you are wearing on the video I ordered them and they don't have the same fiberglass stiff on the bottom of the boots.

[@ironranger1]

Good percentage of us Rail Roaders up north wear Timberland boats. I use them for work then out for a hike. Very nice boots.

[@GETmessedUPP]

ironranger1 ever try the baffins?

[@zephyr1408]

Hey I am a custom carpenter (finish ) and I wore nothing but Red Wings and occasionally a lace to toe Danner (I wore out in 5 months). Then I seen a pair of Keens ; their “San Jose” boot! It’s warmer here in Northern California gets to maybe 25-30 degrees winter and 100 plus summer? I love these boots and I hv a new pair of Red Wings? I won’t take off my Keens! Hey what’s up with the square I hv a headache? Might hv to take legal action here?

[@elky4x4]

After going though several pairs of redwing, ba mason, a variety of military boots and other boots I came across a company called Russel Moccasin who hand makes their boots custom fit. After spending about $600 I got a pair of boots that are hands down the best I have ever had. So far they have outlasted 2 pairs of any of the previous boots mentioned with much more service in front of them.

[@joelrussell1662]

As a Russell I approve this comment

[@sharonsivertsen9354]

Whoa, what a beautiful animal! Thanks for the boot review, too!

[@Dirtmonkey]

You're welcome Sharon and thanks for watching !

[@paultomasetti5164]

Chippewa super logger since late 80’s. I’m only on my fifth pair and one pair is clean for stepping out only. Machinists 15yrs truck driving 16yrs. First pair went through landscaping and dirt bikes.

[@twgmem]

I use Keens for sandals & trail shoes, they hold up very well. It's also one of the few brands that makes decent shoe in my size. I don't deal with snow & ice very often where I live, just mud.

[@sirweezing8286]

I accidentally bought a pair of Keen boots, well it was really my only choice due to the size of my feet. Needed them for a Landscape Management program I enrolled in. Every other boot I tried tore my feet up. They really are bless. That was a good intro haha.

[@charlietuna5962]

No way man.... was just talking about you to my local tool guys, and now you stopped by and showed him your new backdrag plow! Awe man, wished I'd have known, I'd have loved to take you to lunch as a thank you for all the info you provide.

[@scootincoop]

I knew I liked you for some reason sir. Not only are you a down-to-earth hard-working individual you use the best boots out there. I do construction and my dad has always worn Red Wings. When I got my first pair the first week was miserable but after they broke in they are amazing. I've had these boots for 9 years now they've been resold twice. As far as work boots go I will never buy any other brand.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks!

How the hell dis u get him

[@henryjack9870]

i wear Chippewa boots. Im looking for a good winter boot. I've had the Cabelas trans alaskan pac boot for the past 5 years and are now getting worn out. I walked thru calf high water in -30 saving stranded people that fell thru ice. i swore i would never get a different pair of boots after that. here i am looking for a new boot because the boots i love so much are not offered anymore. i have a pair of thorogood 12" endeavor extreme boots 2400g *on the way in the mail somewhere*. someone please tell me i didnt waist my money on them!

[@brentsmith4394]

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks Brent, I appreciate that!

[@johnkeene6519]

Was looking at video reviews of electric chain saws for my wife, so she didn't have to use the 22 inch Stihl, when I saw this video. Absolutely luv your fox. I have been wearing Keen boots every day for the last 2 years and have yet to have a complaint. Waterproof, comfortable from day 1, work very well in the summer heat or winter cold (at least KY cold). Looking at their web site, or in the stores, you will find that some are made in China and some made in America, sometimes it's hard to find the country of origin though. Ran into the same thing years ago when I bought a pair of Justin boots. Both times I ran into features I liked better in the foreign boot, but always bought American.

[@GravelBackMechanic]

Switched to Keen boots in 2010. 8" insulated waterproof steel toe version. I liked them so much that I bought another pair before the first pair wore out. Super comfortable from day 1. These boots are so comfortable, I would wear them in the summer even thought they are insulated. Now that they are worn out, I will have to find a new model from Keen because they no longer make this particular kind anymore. Love my Keens.

[@kokopuffs5789]

you gotta get the Keen Braddock is made in the U.S and they are very well built and super comfortable. Just make sure to get a 1/2 size bigger because they ran a little snug

[@remcovanvliet3018]

Jalatte Swedish welders/offshore boots for me all the way. Comfy like your favorite pair of old slippers, good traction, durable, and saves you from tracking mud through the house because you can easily kick em off at the door (no laces)

[@ChunkyMonkaayyy]

I have a pair of Sperrys for off-work winter wear. And a pair of Irish Setter hunting boots for deep snow and water. Most comfortable of all, my HiTeks but they didn’t last long. Man I miss those.

[@5StarLC]

Love my Wolverine Steel Toe work boots for the summer. But just bought a pair of insulated Sorel Winter boots at Cabelas! For the first time ever I'm enjoying warm dry feet no matter what the Temp is!

[@iowamatt2519]

I've been wearing Keens only for years, used to wear Red Wings. I wear out a pair of Red Wings in 1 concrete season, and I get a full year out of Keens.

[@Grassology-vs1hn]

I've been wearing Keen sandals,shoes and boots for years.I get so much compliments on them.Where I live always has buy one get one no other place in the world has a better deal.

[@waylon7371]

Keens are really comfy and durable boots! Ive got 4 pairs of them and have no complaints

[@Dirtmonkey]

Awesome stuff 👊

[@solraccccc]

I'm a landscaper and I use Redhead boots. They are comfortable for walking all day and they keep my feet warm during the winter and cool during the summer. And also waterproof.

[@tomstoughton]

so wearing a boot that has a taller shaft on it to prevent being filled with water isnt an option?

[@kylesonsalla7620]

Tom Stoughton These were given to him, yes you can wear taller boots to help prevent that

[@recovery116]

I live in Minnesota and I just started working with my friends putting up Christmas lights for very expensive houses. What's the best boot for walking/crawling rooflines? Any response would make my day, as I've scooted down to a 75ft edge to string lights and I honestly felt my life on the line.

[@BIGPIPES74]

[@ATA-wi2lh]

what jacket are you wearing?

[@mcanelli35]

How much do mini skid steers cost

[@donnybedell]

I am a mail carrier and i have a set of boots for every kind of weather, thorogood for hardsnow/ice and keen hiking boots for rain (the driest boot ive worn for 8 hours in complete downpour) adidas ultra boost for summer days. the best accessory for anyone for boots/shoes is a boot drier, it actually bakes the boots the dry, slow heat drys and kill all the germs in the boot so in the am you have a nice dry warm boot to put on.

[@mikepici5553]

I've been wearing keen Pittsburgh style and I'll never switch there awesome

[@jasonbaker3257]

I'm an ironworker outside. It's December. Are you saying Thorogoods are not a good idea. I bought a pair of Mt Vernon 6 inch keen utility boots at 185 dollars on black Friday. Here I am 3 weeks later . Their boots outlets ripped so I got all confused so I ordered a pair of Thorogood 8 inch waterproof composite toe at 244.99. Did I like a bad decision with thorogoods? Please clarify and let me know. Sorry to bother you. Love the channel.

[@backhoeman99]

I had Chippewa boots for 4 years then I put a pair of thorough good loggers on and they feel like walking in a shoe. Hands down my favorite boot

[@hustlehumbly6169]

Redwing 2414 supersole, i put on tuff toe, I laced up my metatarsal guards, and put in Superfeet merinogrey, had them for 2 years. By far most comfortable and durable boot I’ve ever wore. Still waterproof. I’m a gas construction laborer.

[@SirApesALot]

Was a Red Wing guy for life, but after watching this I am gonna go order a pair of these and give them a shot

[@fp715]

One second pair of keen Pittsburgh boots. Love my first pair, this pair seems to be a little more slippery on snow and ice. But for being on concrete for 10hr a day, I like them.

[@jaycheek254]

I wear Keens; steel toed, non-skid boots. Not only do I wear Keens, I wear Keens all day long 6 days a week Monday through Saturday and half the day on Sunday. I work on heavy construction sites and Keens easily last me 15 months. I love them. They're light weight, warm, waterproof (even though they're not officially waterproof), and comfortable!

[@gabemalcolm4429]

LOL The beginning was hilarious LOL

[@DesertHomesteader]

I know lots of people that love their Keens and they do make sturdy footwear, but...I haven't had good experiences with them. I replaced a pair of Tevas with some Keens and that is when I first started developing plantar fasciitis (fallen arches). The Keens had zero arch support and I guess I've always had high arches. I never even knew because no shoe I have ever worn has had so little arch support. Even with orthotics, I could still barely walk in my Keens at the end of a workday. I finally went back to some new Tevas and my plantar fasciitis immediately started getting better. It is now a few years later and it is pretty much gone. Take from that what you will.

[@dsmayo]

I wear Keen Pittsburgh steel toe boots everyday. They are hands down the most comfortable steel toe boot I've worn, hold up great, and are extremely water proof.

[@dustinstanaitis1960]

Hey Stan. I’m wicked hard on boots I killed a pair of rocky boots in 6months my KEENS lasted 2years “GO KEEN” I love these boots

[@timj8405]

If you get another pair make sure you get a pair with the metal rings the cloth ones tear

[@davecampbell1452]

What kind of keen boots are they the name

[@SledgeHammer43]

I have been wearing Bates G8 Ultralites for probably 15 years they were made in the USA originally, they do not get wet unless they get over topped. The first set lasted 2 years. I was a Volunteer Fire Fighter and construction worker. I wore them 6 days a week. As a truck driver I only wore them in the winter. Then as a waste company commercial trucks driver I wore them 6 days a week all year round. Then the third set lasted about 4 years after about 2 years I gave them a shot of seal waterproofing just for added protection. I tried other boots but they just wouldn't stand up most only lasting 6 months. Feet get wet and stay wet boots stink they do not breath. Bates has a carbon fiber toe and shank they do not get cold like steel, then they are made for Police and Fire fighters as a duty boot. They are extremely light weight not weighting much more than a average pair of tennis shoes. I love them.
