11:22 Which Work Boots are best for you?
Reviews of high quality workwear, boots, and clothing for men to help you own better and own less. I've been working with my hands for my entire life as a mechanic, tow truck driver, and eventually a licensed electrician. Being a blue collar guy, I look for certain elements in a product: is it durable? Is it high-quality? Will it perform well over its service life? Whether boots, pants, jackets, or tools I believe it's best to buy once and cry once by getting the best you can afford. With so many options these days, choosing the best product can become a difficult decision, but that's where I come in. Helping you stay stylish, rugged, and handsome.
I don't care where it's made as long as it's made well and allows you to own less and own better.

Love the "just buy jim greens instead"

[@user-pe8pq9yl8i]

That much wear in 30 days is crazy. It really put the boots to the test. Good job Nick's.

[@CAzAReY3XD]

Great job Carl and Tyler! This was probably the best rendition of your "Good, Better, Best" series. I love hearing from guys that actually work and beat up their clothing and equipment and give their honest, no BS feedback. Keep up the great content!

[@CarlMurawski]

Thank you dude!

[@NDB469]

As someone who’s worn just about every level, make, and model of boots, there’s something to be said about having a very high quality boot on your feet and not having to think about your feet while on the job site. It’s a sense of security and provides a safer personal environment. You don’t have to go $500+ but I’d suggest considering it or atleast going mid range and steering clear of the epically cheap boots. When you’re new and starting out by all means going cheap in the most desirable option but once you advance in your trade go for the higher USA made options, you’ll have a tougher break in but it’s worthwhile. I will say with Nick’s the break in hasn’t been that bad in my experience.

[@freedomvan2970]

Been waiting for this and you delivered perfectly. Thank you Tyler for your service to our country.

[@bolandjd]

Great review! Three cheers for Tyler! As a former Army tanker myself it’s always great to see 19K’s out doing great things in the world. Now get that man into some Nick’s Tanker Pros!

That’s what we’ve been waiting for. This is great Carl, I hope you’re doing well.

Great video! Interestingly, I really appreciate how you captured Tyler in a high contrast environment (1:35) without totally blowing out the highlights on his bald head! 🤣 Thank you! Keep up your wonderful work!

[@perennials_one]

Super cool video concept. Would love more of these kind of videos with different types of clothing

[@banbaji]

Great vid Carl! This kind of real world experience is fantastic

[@df540148]

Great video. I work in a warehouse and hear folks complain on the daily about foot pain. Most are wearing cheap sneakers or light duty ST shoes. I rotate through too many pairs of boots, but it makes a big difference in comfort. I prefer stability, support and firmness of a boot and would never want a lightweight, cushy sneaker for this purpose. Your point about the safety aspect of being sharper and focused when you're not thinking about foot pain is spot on though. When you're operating forklifts and other heavy duty equipment, it's super important.

[@disoldsoul]

Such a great project! Very honest presentation. Tyler is a solid dude 👊🏼💪🏼

[@reesespieces3379]

This video was absolutely well done! Please do these more, maybe different flannel, work jackets, jeans…absolutely loved this

[@CarlMurawski]

Thank you! Will do!

[@striderwolf687]

Awesome vid and examples Carl! Super helpful to see the wear and opinion. Is a how to brush and care for boots up next for your documentary star?!?! 😉 I’d imagine a light brush every few days and routine care would really make the boots last!

Whoa, never been this early to the comments. Love the video man, hopefully gonna use to the sway a few more co-workers to the quality side of the boot world. Thanks for putting in all the work for this, really appreciate it.

[@CarlMurawski]

Right on man! Hopefully more guys will embrace the idea of investing in their feet!

[@SeniorSupreme]

Nice video. It would be cool if you’d do a follow up where the boots were cleaned up, conditioned and eventually resoled. Especially the Redwind and Nicks. Also do you have any recommendations for steel toe boots as my job requires them?

[@StAustin101]

This is one of your best videos. I appreciate that you did show the boots after being worn. Hopefully, Tyler is cleaning them every so often. Once the Nicks and Redwings are ready for a resole you should do a video with Trenton and Heath. Next project maybe Tyler should test work pants or work jeans. It is great to see these boots in the real world.

[@CarlMurawski]

I hope so too!

[@jessemcnutt7852]

Great video Carl. How I wish this kind of information was available twenty years ago.

[@CarlMurawski]

Thank you so much!

[@thunderusnight]

Great video! I love the look of Nick's. Would you consider doing a good better best on crew neck work sweatshirts? I'm having trouble finding ones built for work.

[@ThaRealRizzo]

Definitely not going overboard. That’s actually a great point. As someone who often works next to live traffic, I can tell you from experience that focusing on painful boots, or even an injury caused by your boots can make you less safe. Just as much as complacency. That’s actually a good thing to consider when thinking about boot comfort. Hard to imagine a good or bad pair of boots can make the difference between you going home at night or not. But they can.

[@jeremyl.7563]

I liked that you brought Tyler back in that was pretty cool of you. It was nice to really get a good look at those particular Nicks. What it really is vs what you see online isn't always the same to me anyway. I do wish you would have swapped out those Redwings for Thorogood's. I don't think any boot is better then Nicks, however I do think Thorogood are a better boot then Redwings.

[@jonfetzek3053]

Love your channel sir.

[@scottulrich2725]

I have two pairs of Nicks (Rangers and Hotshots), but turn to my Redwing 10877s this time of year because of the change between snow and mud every other day.

[@jesseslaton9800]

You deserve the best Tyler! I wish Thorogood was in the mix too

[@christopherdavisson617]

Awesome video! Thanks Carl. One thing I would say about the Red Wings is that you can get the 10875 (same exact boot as the 875 but with oro original leather instead of oro legacy) for around $285 U.S. It's a great price for a really solid boot. The oro original is a more tan instead of orange leather. But I've found on the job site it deals better with scuffs and stains. Just wanted to throw that out there.

[@CarlMurawski]

Thanks for the info!

[@blainebarringer2356]

Really like the real world test. Good video

[@CarlMurawski]

Thank you!

[@jonuiuc]

I had good luck with thorogoods, the upper starts out more broken in feeling than red wings, they last long enough for me, and come in my wider size.

[@CarlMurawski]

Thorogood is fantastic

[@Dnte-qg3mb]

Great video!!

[@va6gkthaskey311]

Great video, coming from my background Canadian, honestly "narrow" experience. I was lucky enough to stay in one job for most of my career. Im surprised at the amount of "work boots" that dont have safety toe steel / composite. Heck just for a site visit everyone has to have safety toes as a minimum, where ive been. For my personal use boots i custom ordered Steel toe Jim Green AR8's. They are not technically "certified" but im not actually on job sites anymore. 🤷‍♂️ When polished up you would never know they are steel toe. Anyways thanks again for the videos!! Cheers,beers and whiskey 🤠 🥃

[@holladay67]

Great video though I will say Id be super interested in getting his feed back between the RW 875 and the RW 2440 Traction Tred Lite which is through and through more of a work boot than the 875. good stuff!

[@joshuaricks7882]

I got my very first pair of Nicks a few weeks ago and man the break in was brutal, but afterwards they feel phenomenal, the comfort is definitely unmatched, I still have my old pair of Carolinas that I’ve had for 1 year before they fell apart and my feet started hurting so bad I had to bite the bullet and pay over $600 for a custom pair of MTO boots, best $600 I ever spent, am actually looking to get another pair so I can rotate them, thanks for your great videos, your the reason I got a pair of Nicks 🙏

[@browsinmusic]

I work in construction paving asphalt specifically and I’ve now seen a few people with brunts at work and I’m curious to see how long they actually last. I stepped up from the typical mid level redwing $150-$200 ish to thorogoods 1957 moc toe and it’s the first boot that my feet haven’t been sore in I’m going in to my second season with them and will probably re sole next winter.

[@davidgold5961]

Limmer Boots are awesome and made in New Hampshire (yes, that’s in the USA). They take 7 measurements of each foot and the uppers are 1 piece of leather with a 5-row stitch on the inner side. They are primarily for hiking but many men wear them for YEARS as work boots, and they can be re-soled. They also offer ready-to-wear “stock sizing” if you don’t want to wait for custom-fit boots. Those also save you some money. I have (2) pairs and I love them. When you buy them you can also have them apply TUFF TOE (a coating) to the tow area.

[@michaeledwardlenzi]

Although I have no use for work boots, this was an interesting real world study.

[@nathanwhite5602]

Great job on the video

[@CarlMurawski]

Thank you very much!

[@gabe2483]

Im about to start a new job been loving wedges but Im needing something for ladders. Timberland Boondocks are what im pretty set on style. The toe, shank, defined heel, water proof capabilitys. Im looking around $200. Anything I should look at Timberland Pro, Wolverine, Ariat Work, Keen, or maybe Danners. I just got burned on some Thorgoods soles lasted 6 months and luckily got them 50% off. I had Skechers last longer.

[@repaircollc]

Yep no surprises here! You the man Carl!

[@kentdavis4446]

For the $300 category i always go with danner. Ive had 2 pairs of their quarry boots and love them. The first pair got left on the truck box and i lost then somewhere on a highway

[@louissancio8904]

This is a great video, and the perspective of a really good apprentice is a terrific idea. I represent Laborers. The problem we have as a trade is that we get a lot of lome, mortar, concrete, and asphalt on our boots. This destroys the upper faster than the sole. Any suggestions on the type of boots that can hold up to that type of work? I have trouble recommending $500 boots to Laborers only for them to find the premium leather has been eaten through by lime and sand.

[@kevindope8807]

Wish I watched this before buying the Marin boots. I think I will return them and go back to redwings. I have the burner xp and they have lasted me for a decent time 1 year so far. And man they still got some life left in them. I think I’m going to be getting them resoled after all. Thanks guys for opening my eyes.

[@kingofthekludge]

Carl, it would be great to see a review of the Russell Moccasin's boots!

I have a pair of Thorogood round toes im retiring because of a tear after 13 years 3 resoles. They last ok as an IBEW Wiremen unless your doing lots of deck work or working on your knees blowing out the toebox. The Whites Perry premium is a sweet spot for normal construction.

[@blpitts11]

I love my thorogood moc toe, really comfortable, they can last a long time with being able to be re soled, and for me personally it can have a safety too which is a requirement for my company

[@RickN13]

I'm not in the trades industry and just wear high quality boots because soft and squishy shoes tend to give me plantar fasciitis. I struggled with this a couple of years ago and once I started wearing boots just about every day I found my feet feeling better and better. For someone like me who works in a lab on tile floors all day, I stick to around $300 to $400 and I'm happy...stuff like Red Wing, Grant Stone, Wolverine 1k, etc. They're good enough for me and my purpose. However, if I needed a well built and more durable boot for a more physically demanding job then I'd have no issue spending around $500 for something that will offer the protection and longevity that comes along with it. Admittedly, I've never tried any of the PNW boots. They're probably way too much boot for me. But I can completely understand the need for them in certain types of jobs...just not for a lab geek like myself haha.

[@scottulrich2725]

The PNW brands make a lot more than just hardcore work boots. They make a lot of beautiful boots that can be worn casually or in an office setting -- but, with the high quality and workmanship of the work boots. Yes, the entry price is high, but they will last forever and be incredibly comfortable after break in.

[@danichicago9140]

Whites Perry premium moc toe falls right in your price range and is PNW built and its been a great boot at home or at work

[@matthewcaughey8898]

Where I work I have a steel toe and metatarsal guard requirement unfortunately I can’t wear the internal met guard without it pressing on a nerve in my foot causing all kinds of problems. I bought a cheap pair of wedge sole steel toes and fitted an external metatarsal to them. 10 days in and minimal pain, having seen success here I’ll wear them out and most likely purchase a good quality pair sbd do the same

[@christianarita9744]

Could you make a review on nicks newer boot the hardwear pro I've been really interested in buying, but it seems like no one has given a detailed review on it. It's basically a more flexible builder pro.

Great video! I wish you would have cleaned the boots before showing the final because they all looked worse than they probably are. Also, the false tongues not being tight in place bothered me as well.

[@kosta2177]

I used to work three years on construction, where we were doing all kind of work. Concrete, digging, masonry, demolition and drywall. I was always wearing German military BW2000 boots that I bought used on ebay in “like new” condition, and they survived all three years. They were comfortable, water resistant, and protected my feet from sparks and all issues. On weekends I used to wear them on hikes and backpacking trips. I seriously don’t understand the desire to pretend that you really need 500+ dollars just for work. Now I have a decent boot collection, from Iron Rangers to White’s. But it is just like a hobby

I bought some Brunt boots about a year and a half ago. I do have to say they were comfortable right out of the box. But they did get worn down pretty easily, especially the heel. I work in a warehouse so I don't need a boot that's super tough or for harsh work conditions. I am looking for a new pair now. Something for hot conditions.

[@davidpalmer9014]

No mention of the painful break-in period with higher end boots? Also, surprised you didn't feature Thorogood. Aren't they really popular on job sites?

[@jeremyt2212]

Exactly. I have a few pairs of higher-end boots that are just too nice to wear to work, no matter how well built they may be. On the job, I swear by my trusty Thorogoods. Tough as nails, comfortable as a pair of sneakers, and after my first pair was finally ready to be retired after three years of hard daily wear and abuse, I replaced them with another pair of the same 6" steel-toe moc toes from the American Heritage line without hesitation.

[@CarlMurawski]

Thorogood is definitely popular, and these particular Nicks are built to be a little more flexible, cutting down on the break in period.

[@curtshelp6170]

I haven't tried Nicks yet but I have to different varieties of Whites Perry boots and the Perry's are so good thatI don't feel the need to pay more. I don't care for the fake Mac toe. I might try the JK 300 or forefront next, they don't offer a mic toe but then neither does Nicks, they just punch unnecessary holes and fake stitches into the top of the boot so if I were to buy Nicks I would avoid the "moc" moc toe.

[@MadRhetorik.]

I usually just end up going with Ariats. I dumpster boots within a year just due to the nature of my work. Nothing survives. So for me there’s no reason to buy a $500-800 pair of custom boots for them to be totally unrepairable within a years my boots LIVE in oil, hydraulic fluid, water, greases, chemicals, high heat from welding amongst many other horrible conditions. No matter how you try to take care of your stuff nothing lasts long. Pants, work boots and shirts are disposable in my line of work so for me this is what I end up having to do.

[@Marfoir0303]

Like you our boots where exposed to everything. I had to have safety toes, electrically safe, and be able to hold up in Nav Gas, hydraulic fluid, oil, grease, & a myriad of chemicals & paint. Once a year I would buy Redwings with the extra wide toe box or top of the line Keen’s those boots performed well I have no complaints. I never heard of Nick’s not in aviation ever. I did 47 years total walking flight lines & hangars I was in The Military for 27 years & they gave us good boots; when I retired I went to work for Cal-Fire Aviation fighting wild fires for 21 years I had to buy my own then of course. Thanks for sharing your experience 😎

[@dennisclanton5342]

Ya I found the same thing when I went from $200 boots to franks boots. I'd waist a set of boots every yr at 200 250 each vs before then I used cheap sub $100 boots that lasted maybe 3 months.

I'll get a pair of comfortable cat boots for £70 they'll last 5-6 months but my foot is the exact measurements that the boot was designed for which is size 9 were if someone is size 11 or 7 for example the measurements become warped and are probably better off getting a custom boot.

Cool blue hoodie, who makes it?

[@jesiachord3179]

I really want some high quality steel toe boots, but all the best brands make stripper boots for some reason. I don’t need a 3” heel. I need something tough, with very good traction. Working in the oil field these nicks and whites boots are a no-go. Hope they make. Better model soon. Wedge sole don’t work either.

[@paulverstraete9157]

cool that you 2 are in the same job as i.....getting my 25 year pin next month and 15 more before i joined......nicks were the first i bought but my soles fell apart i thing someone did not build them right....despite this they outlasted the thorogoods from before that and the jks i have now are far superior i think because they use better stitching than nicks.....unfortunetaly i feel i wasted my money on the nicks and they will not do anything.....the leather on the nicks is very nice though maybe when i get a big rabbit haul ill have jk rebuild them the uppers are still good.....

[@PerspectivePossibilities]

How can you tell if theyre goodyear welted?

[@CarlMurawski]

It can be tricky, but look for the small strip of leather (sometimes PVC) where the sole meets the upper. That is the actual welt, but some brands will put a fake on there like BRUNT. So it gives the impression that the boot is made with a much higher quality construction technique, though I find that deceptive...

I have to have the absolute hardest sole boots out cuz of the surface I’m on everyday. Highway diamond grinder operator here so ground sharp concrete roadways. If you don’t know what that is, google it. But it’s sharp and unforgiving, rips any wedge boot apart in a few weeks, and if you drag a heel, they’re junk sooner. Best two boots by far in the thousands of dollars work of boots I’ve tested for this job are….Ariat overdrive xtr round toes and timberland pro endurance. Of course u replace the insole with timberlands orange thick famous insole for both boot brands and you’re set. But if u can’t send a staple into the sole you’re good to go. I’ve tried nicks boots and they were sole less in 5 weeks. Sold them. Red wing many types, sold them too. Danner, etc…no wedge boot ever will last. So it’s only a heel boot type of job, Georgia boots makes some really tough industrial soled boots too, but they’re really heavy. A good test I’ve found is if u can u wear them down with a 60 grit flap disc in a few seconds, they’re junk. U can’t with the two I picked and mentioned and I’m in them 12-17 hrs each day as there are never any less than 10hr days in my industry. Nothing stops our work unless it’s machine issues.
