I’ve watched a million of these videos, and I just have to say that guy doing the lasting, is a true master of his trade. I can’t even say why, but you just know it when you see it.

[@davidfreeman4569]

If youre welding checkout their ironhide. Leather on these boots is much thicker and tougher than what youre thinking. I love my jks... wearing for over a year... nothing else comes close to the durability

[@frostywelder1220]

I’m a welder/fabricator and over the last 30 yrs the one part that wears out the quickest on boots for me is the leather over the steel toe. I’ve worked jobs where I have to crawl around on units or concrete and the toes take a lot of abuse. How does the leather on your boot stand up to that abuse versus a Carolina boot or some other mid level brand?

[@jimthomas1989]

Leather is Leather Either from Cow , Horse or Buffalo Thickness is what matters . I got a pair of Army Surplus boots for under $50 bucks , they are dated 2009 That's 15 years ago and they still perform like new , I got them in 2015 just 8 years ago , I certainly wouldn't take a pair of $600 dollar boots in a Welding shop but you ain't me , and if you want to , go ahead . I been a Welder / Fabricator for 40 years

[@frostywelder1220]

I wouldn’t take these boots in a weld shop either. Too expensive. I was just curious how they would hold up. It does say making best work boot tougher. The toe is the place that I destroy the most.

[@mad0uche]

@@frostywelder1220these types of boots are weird because the outsole sticks out a lot which tends to protect the toe. If you are kneeling and wear the toe down that way, doesn’t matter what kind of shoe you wear it will wear through eventually. One thing they have is rough out which helps a lot with the toe getting cut and worn, it’s more resistant.

[@mad0uche]

Also nobody cares that you were a welder fabricator stripper machine operator for 30 40 80 90 years, I don’t know why you guys need to state that like you’re departing at an airport

[@Whats-A-Clutch]

@@mad0ucheit speaks volumes on his experience. He’s asking what they’re doing to prevent shoe’s prematurely wearing out. It’s a simple good question.

[@user-xz1zs3vc9g]

Я тоже очень хочу такие ботинки, хотя хорошо понимаю что никогда не буду иметь этот ШЕДЕВР, стар я, да и не по средствам, преклоняюсь перед мастерством, храни вас создатель ....

[@piratexs1021]

И зря можно самому сшить это не космических денег стоит

[@johnnyshell2839]

Id have to ask how long does it take to break those things in

[@enlamadrepatria]

hey sr and the pins what??? is there in the shoe?

[@conradguy4690]

When they mold the shoe around the foot model the nails they put in look like they would go into the model because they are long enough but the bottom of the model is metal so just curious how that works?

[@12345.......]

The nails curve around and clinch the material together

Whitcher No. 3, wide?

[@ChrisHarding-lk3jj]

I desperately need work boots and I haven't been able to find anything off the shelf that will work. Is it possible to get anything bigger than a size 14? I wear a size 15 wide and I have other orthopedic issues. When I was a teenager my orthopedic surgeon recommended that I get custom shoes made but I never have. Throughout the years I found a couple off the shelf shoes I can wear. My right leg is 1/2" to 3/4" shorter than my left which is the result of shattering my hip as a teenager. The other issue I have is with my left foot and ankle, in my mid 20s I was diagnosed with synovial sarcoma in my left foot and ankle and I received surgery and radiation and parts of my ankle joint has been cut out and fused with hardware so the outside of my ankle is wider. I was probably 17 the last time I had a pair of boot I could wear. I own a hot rod and performance automotive business along with a machine shop and metal fabrication business. I am always welding and plasma cutting and can't count how many times I have had spatter or dross go down in my shoes and burn into my feet. What I really need is a pair of size 15 wide boots with a taller right side boot to compensate for leg length and a the left boot needs extra room for the outside of ankle. A couple of years ago I experimented with making my right shoe taller, I cut up a tire and traced the outline of my shoe on a piece of tread and glued it to the bottom of my right shoe and sanded the sides flush using my belt grinder. I was able to walk so much better and even my back and posture was much improved, the only problem was the added weight of the tire tread felt strange.

[@jkbootsusa]

Love these boots BUT you need to cut stitching grooves in the soles. Have seen many photos with popped stitches on new boot soles. I'd build a hand grinder with a guide on it...could make grooves in 2 minutes. I'd be pissed if my stitches popped loose. Just sayin.

[@jackpot9954]

[@KenyaModo]

Too many issues here. Boot looks good but, Stiches will be stepped on at the bottom of the shoe. They wont last. Are those nails coming out of his mouth😂. Polishing rubber with no mask🥲. What happened to work safety/
