23 of my Favorite Boots for the Winter

[@goostav8235]

Got a pair of timbs today. You can't walk in them, you can only stomp. I feel powerful.

[@malthetjagvad398]

Yeah same

[@jdfoster23]

How are they in snow and ice?

[@m3lvin449]

Yeah its sick If your outdoors

[@kookvszn]

lmaoo same

[@LukeJahromi]

I got my timbs for my birthday and they are incredible

[@jeffdur1330]

I didn't realize how much i would enjoy falling down the winter boots rabbit hole. Thank you

[@mz.7934]

Drew, you give me kinda a eastern European grandma vibe with that hat. I love it.

[@DrewJoiner]

lol I love it

[@daseapickleofjustice7231]

Bro thats a mans hat 💀 babusjka will wear a regular scarf around the head. Imagine your grandma in a yankee thats like a babusjka in an usjanka lol

[@pprosio]

nike lahar lows are a good shout, they’re only in women’s sizing i think but very stylish for both men and women

[@fabianradloffsantos3337]

I’ve been wearing my blundstones throughout the entire year and I cannot be more happy with them! They are really comfy and so fast to put on

[@pt257]

I was expecting the Orée Combat boots! I do get the Blundstone hype, because they have that Birk level of comfort and last a long time.

[@knee-mah]

Yaa, interesting why he didn't mention those.

[@Dylan28969]

From here in Australia, there is a love for the brand RM Williams that I don't believe the rest of the world has noticed. All the leather is Australian and it is fully made in Australia.

[@Jackson.W.Rose1138]

came to comment this, RM Williams are everywhere in Australia, from your local footy club to high fashion events, and for good reason, their silhouette is gorgeous, they're extremely well made and durable too.

[@acuteangel1442]

i think australian boots generally are slept on. i mean we generally demand durability and high quality materials otherwise what’s the point of fucking around with them.

[@gneissschisty]

600$?? 👀

[@arko9151]

I’m from Sweden but lived in Australia for a year, definitely noticed the amount of RMs everywhere. They’re really nice, but usually here we only wear boots during the colder months (and some even wear sneakers in -20° and snow?!)

[@Leo-ri6qg]

I have owned a pair of Oakley vertex boots for about a month and I am very happy with them. You're right about the fact that they are very light but I wouldn't call them cheap feeling. They are incredibly comfortable while keeping my feet warm and dry in Germany's snowy season. These are only the second pair of outdoor-type boots I've ever owned though, so please take my review with a grain of salt.

[@mains8913]

Whats sizing like?

[@brittanystorey9460]

I will say the blundstone boots are the boots most people get when they can only afford one pair of boots and need something that can do it all. Hiking check, waterproof check, night out check, daywear check, slide on check. Do they do anything excellently? no but they work well for versatility. It's like the Ikea of boot imo.

[@nathang2085]

Got myself a pair of the oakley vertex boots last year and they are absolutely amazing. Water proof, suuuuper comfy, and light but not in a cheap feeling kind of way. The quality is definitely there and as i’ve worn them thru the year they are most def worth a look

[@snipezben1235]

How is the sizing

[@Eliashotboi]

Roa’s been going crazy, the CVO boot is 🤌🏽

[@coolatta1]

i think its wicked, like “wick-ed” like the broadway musical for those LL Bean boots. Saying something is “really good”Like someone from Boston would say.

[@the_33rd]

I was looking for this comment. In Australia people also can refer to things as wicked good.

[@ScottJohnson-d9s]

I’ve working in construction since I was 13 and I live and die by the moc toes. Redwings are nice but I prefer the colors and patina of Thorogood more, also they were they OG’s before Redwings

[@freemoney9769]

I would say most popular pair would be docs in my area. Watching this video made me realize I need pair of boots, my journey begins now to find the perfect pair. Just wanted to add your videos are amazing and I’m always looking forward to your input.

[@TrintleJr64]

Love your style! NYC fashion tends to get kind of boring, but you're one of the one's who keeps things genuine, interesting and exciting! Stay true to your style!

[@たかちゃん-j3q]

theres two things u said and I would have to heavily disagree one of them and heavily agree on the other. nyc fashion does not tend to get boring lmao but drew for sure keeps it unique with his style

[@freemoney9769]

NYC fashion being boring might be the first time I’ve heard someone say that, disagree heavily but I’ll respect your opinion.

[@dash_rabbit]

I've been wearing my Danner's on repeat this year. Somehow, they fit with this year's aesthetic. And, the great thing about them (and any quality hiking boot) is there's no break in period.

[@willt.9654]

I live in Chicago’s north side and blundstones are everywhere, but I work on the south side where ofc timbs reign supreme

[@tre_tha_beast6848]

I got some blundies last year (i felt silly saying last year) around November as my first pair of boots and i couldn’t be more happy with them! They are very very very comfortable and easy to put on. The boots are literally meant for any time of the year and any activity. You can dress em up or even dress em down. whether its yard work or a trip to the city they are great

[@lavonnealexander6936]

I just got some last year too, your right they can wear be worn with any thing and at any place.

[@astral_plane_crash]

Those Eddie Bauer k6's are a killer deal at $110 right now, better quality than lots of other boots on this list. I'm also surprised at the lack of LL. Bean boots, both the Cresta and the classic Bean boots are great winter kicks, although they might not go with many fits.

[@hnguyen218]

The most popular boots in my hood are Air Jordan 1 highs.

In Montréal, we all wear Blundstone. Perfect for 4 seasons and snow.

[@humbertoramirez358]

Salomon Quest 4D Advanced are also great boots that weren’t listed. Not the sleekest but the materials are great. They’re often on sale on many sites.

[@jackgrimes3566]

Dope to meet you yesterday sir 😁 the fist bumps for the 1 and 2 times were elite

[@ASVPDeVaughn420]

diemme roccia vet man, diemme makes some amazing boots. the retail is steep, but really no need since they're in abundant in the secondhand/new-used space.

[@Parkrcole]

That Bare Knuckles knit is beautiful 👏

[@hengistbury2136]

Shocked that Diemme were not mentioned!

[@christiancooper1923]

Great video. Love how you also give alternatives!

[@patrickmcadams7996]

note on blundstone sizing, from what ive heard, the size (length) of the boot is reflected as the whole number aka size 9, size 11, etc. and the middle sizes or the .5, is width. So a 9.5 is the same length as a 9, but wider,

[@aqniuo]

Surprised you didn’t mention the Reese Cooper Wilson Boot. Price point is up there for sure ($350-$500 depending where you can find them online), but they’re probably one of the most versatile and high quality boots I’ve owned. And I’ve owned boots like Red Wing Iron Rangers and Alden Indy boots. Man…these RC Wilson Boots take the cake for sure. You can dress them up, dress them down, and even go on hikes with them. Additionally, they come with a nice dust bag and 3 different colored laces (if you cop the OG beige colorway).

[@Javi_rmz12]

The most used boot where im at, and one i think you missed is the cowboy boot. There’s a lot of variation of the cowboy boot, and even influencers like Miles Baguette and rocking them!

[@snakebat8669]

It can be -20 in my town and the most popular shoe to trudge through snow in will still be cowboy boots

[@rpromero78]

You missed the Red Wing Iron Ranger, also look at boots made in the Pacific Northwest like Nicks, Whites or JK. As a final, but very important, suggestion look at Roll Club boots. These are handmade by one guy in Los Angeles.

[@Obinnto]

Know this is an old video, but for an alternative to the jungle boots, you can find Vietnam era milatary boots that look identical to those at any military surplus store for sub $100

[@Bordsteinpanzer]

Diemme and Roa have great boots, bit similiar to danner but I think they are more popular in europe than in the US

[@acuteangel1442]

if you’re looking for uggs shop from australia. the word ugg is untrademarkable here due to the word ugg being australian slang. generally they’re wool and sheepskin too so they’ll keep you really warm.

[@jonross9962]

Great video, love the hat! PVV: I mostly see Doc Martens here in Mannheim, Germany ;)

[@ddtvhenderson3285]

I’ve been going true to size in Timberlands for years

[@annaleona6518]

All the way from the Twin Cities metro area, I would say any kind of UGG mini. Whether or not it's the mini or the ultra mini, platform or standard, UGG is the boot

[@pace7029]

If you are going for quality go for Solovair over Docs 100% and the best price-quality ratio boot here are the Jim Green Razorbacks.

[@seeingeveryobject]

You’re forgetting Asolos or vasque boots these were on a lot of ppls feet in NY early 2000s I bought a pair of Asolo TPS 520s last year for nostalgia purposes

[@josephcharlessow2833]

i'm from Rome and here the Blundstone are the only pair of boots you see walking around

[@dubssalamander]

I’ve had my blundstones for 4 years now and I love them bout to get another pair soon

[@aleckubs6933]

Try a pair of redwings! My dad and I have a pair of Iron Rangers. They are expensive but definitely worth the price point.

[@a.ustin.kasten]

Definitely on Vancouver island blundstones are always on feet

[@marlenakauer5262]

FYI, Danner usually has a sale around Black Friday and I would agree with going true to size or half a size up if you have a wide foot

[@Gunpla2]

Just a a quick comment on the doc martins. Instead of getting the 1460s, you should instead look for solofairs 8 eye derby boots, they use better leather, are made in the UK and to top it off are the orignal factory before docs took their manufacturing overseas and made the end product a shell of what they once were. Solofairs also retail around the same price aswell. If you do want the doc martin yellow stitching i'd consider looking for a pair that was made before the 2000's as that's when they where still produced in the UK.

[@dubgaxD]

In Poland it would be timberlands or something similar (knockoff ones).

[@luit5224]

Would’ve expected to see Diemme in this list

[@TPOBPanda]

Missed Timberland World Hiker these boots have a lot of history in hip hop!

[@weiyuan20]

The Morjas boots are so beautiful!!!

[@connorjackson3215]

Roa boots and diemme boots are popular at the moment

[@NicClaure]

The Diemme boot line is pretty great, check em out

[@devinaf7879]

Grant stone diesels have got to be the best boot to buck ration I’ve ever seen But as for boots I see the most it would probably be thorogoods being that I’m a plumber usually doing in house work

[@miquelcrespo7515]

Im in love with Paraboots😊

[@ramseslee8382]

I have to say, that I didn't expect to enjoy a boot video considering that I am not a fashion guy, congrats man very professional.

[@rickyrubio7934]

PVV -UGGs and/or Nike Goadomes. I live in Louisville, KY by the way. 😂

[@ecolbe]

My Blundstones have outlasted any other boot I've purchased there top notch and not as heavy as other boots.

[@ThinMak]

thanks for you vid and +1 for Paraboot Yosemite boot, only miss is the ROA Andreas (sure you already know, they had a jjjjound collab) ;-)

[@xLastHopeForWorld]

Dr Martens Winchester II is the best beginner boot imo

[@machupikachu8349]

I still have and wear my UGG minis since 2008 and my Timberland hiking boots since 1997. 😊

[@jjjiant]

I have definitely come to this point, but its rough as a size 15 as 95% of options don't come in my size!

[@PeterBeier-v3j]

From the First are the best boots ever

[@LouleyK]

End of vid crew for Drew! Just got a pair of Fitflop hiking boots, - who knew they were a thing? I have foot pain but love love love boots, these are cool AND lifesaving. Popular boots in South London? Uggs definitely & doc martens 😊

[@dardo23]

its really usefull that you mention Sizing with every boot or shoe you are talking about. No more research needed :)

[@sourbythehour4204]

As a New York Nigga that was taught if it ain’t Timberland it ain’t right I can say the best boot I bought in a minute has to be the Merrell MOAB 3. I got some Yeezy boots. But I’m tryna get som Suicoke bowers. Danners are tough too. Just mad expensive. Honorable Mention: Vasquez, and New Balance Rainier.

[@Hetiskaas]

At this point there are way better hiking boots then the danner boots, the biggest problem is that there is no dedicated counter cover, so before you even get to a resole, the inside is already worn through

[@helderstompff808]

I feel like timbs are becoming the next big trend, taking the crown from the samba’s

[@jcheungtv]

23 is crazy, putting in that work! 😤

[@tiagomoreira9871]

You should check out the rm Williams boots. It’s an Australian brand, high quality boot. Very nice

[@jessejohns5624]

The Nike Manoa boots are amazing! I’ve had a pair for like 3+ years and they are tanks. So so comfortable and durable.

[@Rad69Lee]

Red Wing Iron Ranger!

[@stotheg7126]

Those Eddie Bauer K6 boots are actually on deeper discount on their site right now, black and brown and in a full size run for half off at $110. I don't own a pair but was looking and noticed yesterday.

[@lauralarson4714]

I live in Minnesota and see a lot of blundstones, Tim’s, and Ugg’s

[@mrparks212]

Here in OKC Langston's Western cowboy boots are the most popular, not my style though. As far as the 2024 outro, " I implore you to do what you adore, nothing but sincerity and prosperity in all of 2024" I can come up with a better one given time, but that's off the dome.

[@lingsong2321]

Take a look on Diemme and Roa😊

[@thechancellor842]

Wallabe are my jam

[@undeuxtrois2885]

Arizona Love has very cool ‘Colorado boots’ handmade in Portugal. Lmk what do you think if you see it

[@daseapickleofjustice7231]

From Sweden, idk what regular people wear but if ur trappin u and everyone got on Canada Snow boots

[@coolintheshade]

Living in the desert, my favorite pair of winter boots are flip flops

[@ryanmhines]

I’ve got a pair of the Danner mountain Lights that I use for hiking, but they’re still good looking enough to wear around town

[@Mover333]

Loving the The North Face X Undercover SOUKUU Glenclyffe Boots in Brown/Grey :)

[@StefanMcMillan-fb5uv]

ROA notes as a honourable mention

[@Ray03595]

I've found its better to not cheap out on boots. Yes, some of these can run $300-$400, but they tend to always be worth that money and usually can be re-soled so you can keep them for most of your life if you want to. That said, Jim Green is affordable and good quality out of the cheaper alternatives named. Also as an American, I try to have some of my clothes made in America, which is close to impossible to find these days (nice knowing at least a few things you own weren't made by underpaid workers/children in bad conditions). But Red Wing is made in America, so is their tannery, so if you want to support an American brand that has a lot of pedigree, always has high quality products, Red Wing is that brand.

[@Edc_tj]

Gonna throw in an honorable mention, New Balance Rainier Boot! Very affordable and dope colorways.

[@manonthemoon3961]

Was looking for a pair of boots, & this graciously landed on my home page, looking forward to keeping up Monsieur Drew ✌️🌙

[@bakkerjan]

Anyone know what kind of hat the drew is wearing?

[@Jpgmxmi]

Drew you missed a grail.. western boots specifically some tecovas 🙇🏽‍♂️

[@mictecacihuat665]

I got oxblood solovairs recently and have been wearing them everywhere

[@ReflexArc530]

I've been looking at getting a pair of whites boots. It's one only the only handmade boots left plus they look amazing

[@jasonc.3685]

They are indeed beautiful and comfy, but in the 2 pairs I currently own there have been some quality control issues. In my soft lace-to-toe boots, (Frontiersman model) there is a minor stitching defect in the toe area that leads to water seeping inside the boot regardless of my waterproofing efforts, I contacted them for a warranty, which they said they would honor, they stated that is a common issue in lace to toe boots and a new boot may not solve that issue. This irked me and I just now never where that pair when its lightly wet outside. The second boot, Sawyer steel toe, the left boot came pre-creased in the area just before the steel toe starts, and I didn't bother to contact customer service for this issue as they are my work boots so looks don't matter much for working boots. I'd suggest checking out other pacific northwest brands like Nick's, Frank's, or JK's, but whites isn't the worst idea as they have cheaper entry level boots that may not have any lead times

[@Garcia347]

Bro that’s hilarious cause I was really gonna say something about red wings not being mentioned

[@DrinkingHatorade]

What are those pink wallabee looking boots in the thumbnail?

[@Broimjosh]

Reese cooper boots are fire 🔥

[@alittlelozzy6994]

Blundstones ruined me because nothing else will ever compare to them 😂 the comfiest hardiest boots of all time

[@aaahouais7446]

how do you style chelsea boots properly ? new in fashion here 😢

[@LeanEnthusiast]

the new yeezy boot 500 highs are amazing i love mine.

[@elisecccccccc]

The SSENSE sale is on and they have a ton of Dr. Martens listed! Might be a good thing to check out if they’re still a bit pricey for you (which I think they are given the recent decline in quality, they don’t last like they used to)

[@wills-ol3so]

😭 you show some guidi at 0:14 but never mention them in the video! my disappointment is immeasurable

[@imlhm]

Hey Drew, was wondering if you’ve ever checked out Brain Dead or afield out? Both brands that I really like. Maybe not your vibe but figured I’d throw it out there

[@salamance2]

i was just looking for boots, youre clutching foreal Drew.

[@NARAKA]

I would really suggest also Salewa Mid trainer Gtx, they have lots of colorways and to me honestly they look fire 🔥
