Hello I recently started reenacting the wild west and I'm looking for a boot I could use would you recommend the Thursday boots for this purpose? I can't seem to find other affordable boots that look the way I want accept the Thursday boots

[@ddutton0]

I am excited for this one. Yes cut all of them up! I would love to see the leather soled boots Sass as well. I am in the market for boots and the Cowboy boots series has been super helpful in seeing what is worth it in that area.

[@TheDragonGamerTV]

I would say for a good beginner Boot, go with Ariat. They aren't the best, but they are good. You can find a lot of decent pairs for 200 and below. I've been wearing a pair for a few years now as my dailys' and I've encountered no problems. But it all depends on what you think is valuable or greatly made. These Thursdays look good, but also not the greatest. Hope this helps in some way.

Great idea!

[@dr.simmons3839]

I purchased a pair just recently and it felt great. I agree with a lot of your points on styling and quality. My biggest problem was that it was just too narrow. I wish Thursday came out with wide boots in more styles.

[@josecortes6485]

Yea ditto, I really like all the models they keep thinking up but they aren't expanding their widths on more models.

[@chrismadison6555]

It’s funny, in Nov 8, 2021 I messaged Thursday asking if they were getting into the Cowboy boot game. They said they were playing with the idea. As soon as they were released I ordered my pair. Desperados in Old Town color. Fit is great, ordered my normal Thursday size (I own captains). These boots were a little snug in the camp area but should stretch over time and fit amazingly. I highly suggest the boots! Love them and I’m a boot enthusiast and beginning collector.

[@MeToo-py1tq]

What's the camp area you talk about?

[@spudzooka]

Thank you so much for the quality of videos you put out. Because of your videos I haven’t been disappointed in a boot purchase in a couple of years, now that you have provided info previously unavailable to the consumer

[@mariopena7793]

As someone who wears cowboy boots on a daily basis I can say that there are other options available around the price range with equal or better quality, I like the fact that the heel-stack and the upper are made of good quality leather but I’m still missing that slab of leather in the midsole and I’d prefer something a little more rugged and slip resistant for an outsole. To me they feel like a casual dress shoe. A personal favorite brand of mine is Horsepower boots which are also made in Mexico, they feature a full leather heel stack but although the midsole and outsole are made of leather they are relatively thin. Either way they make a comfortable and good looking cowboy boot. I don’t mean to sound like a hater and ultimately it comes to personal preference but if he’s trying to explore options for his viewers there are a lot more brands out there he could look into, not just big names and brands that sponsor videos.

[@shredmaster2000]

Those horsepower boots look really nice. I also agree that some more brand variety would be nice but ultimately i've accepted that youtubers have to pay the bills and sponsors are a part of that

[@jonathannavarro9048]

[@potatokaiyote]

Im interested in getting my first pair of cowboy boots, not trying spend anything past 300$, what would you recommend?

[@TheDragonGamerTV]

@zaku08 OK. So I hope I can help. If you're a first-time boot owner, I would find something comfortable instead of something you like the look of. Of course, find something you like but prioritize comfort over style. Personally, I've owned the Thursday Desperados for a month now. I can say that these have been the best boots for this price range. Most of the time, I would worry about buying anything you aren't sure about. The Desperados tend to run a bit narrow, so order a size up if you have wide feet. I wear size 10.5 EE, so ordering an 11 worked great. And with thursday, their sizes are a 1/2 size bigger than they say they are(10 is actually 10.5, 10.5 = 11, ect.) I would recommend thursday as a great starter boot, and just a great boot all round. I hope this helps.

[@potatokaiyote]

@@TheDragonGamerTV I appreciate the tip, I actually just ordered some Ariats on Amazon Prime "Try before you buy" to see how they would turn out.

[@JestRLee]

YES ! ! ! Please do a deeper dive into the construction of multiple cowboy boots... the older I get the harder it is to bend down to lace up my boots(bad back), so I am interested in moving to cowboy boots that I can just slip on and off without throwing my back out... Thanks Wes... love the show

[@not-a-raccoon]

My first pair of Thursdays will be here today. I've seen consistently positive comments about their products all over here and Reddit, with a few outliers who need to temper their expectations. So, yeah I'd trust Thursday to make fairly priced boots that are good quality

[@jamesharbourt4787]

I got a pair of mavericks a few weeks ago, and I must say they are byfar the most comfortable boots ive had in a while

[@sotohc96]

Have you tried the boots in slim jeans? If so do they work well?

[@jfruser]

Love these boot analysis videos. That Thursday boot does look like a low bar to entry cowboy boot. I do like seeing quality & quality for the money boots and shoes out there. I appreciate quality foot gear, having had jobs where I was standing or tromping about all day.

[@JohnPaulHare]

I bought the Mavericks back in October. They've been great so far. Easy break-in period, comfortable, and stylish for everything from jeans and T-shirts to khakis to sport jackets. I have other Thursdays, so it was an easy leap to buy a pair of their cowboy boots. They've become my go-to boot with jeans for most situations, and they're exactly the style I've been looking for in a cowboy boot.

[@isvacsolano]

I own several pairs of the Captain Thursday boots and recently got one pair the Desperado Arizona adobe cowboy boots, these is the very first pair of cowboy boots I've ever gotten and so far the experience has been great; I ordered the same size as the Captain, these fit perfectly no break in period at all, it's a very good boot and very comfortable

[@seantbr2019]

Made in Mexico Mexicans know boots !!! I wear cowboy boots everyday and I've worn the same boots for the last 12 years and they were made in Mexico

[@toddhoover8914]

Yes, yes, yes. Please do a Rose Anvil 2 video cutting all of the boots in half. I really enjoy the more in-depth videos on the 2nd channel.

[@jennypaxton8159]

I had no idea they made cowboy boots! I’d love to see a comparison of all three.

[@guitarguymi]

Thursday seems like the perfect intro to cowboy boots company. A comparison between the lineup could be a helpful tool for Thursday as well. I never got into cowboy boots because of the coast and knowing the reputation cowboy boots have for comfort and fit. What we saw here was a boot I would really consider as an introduction but I'd like to know if I pay a bit more can a get some more leather underfoot for example. A test for wide feet would be greatly appreciated as well. Hard to find a cowboy boot where I don't stand on the welt.

[@corbin1177]

The sizing is really consistent. I also own the President Thursday boots, and the boots feel almost identical on my feet. The only exception is that the Desperados have a slight heel slip like all cowboy boots. They felt too tight when I first got them, but mine fit perfectly now that I've broken them in. Great boots.

[@richardgatling4663]

The Desperado are my first pair of western boots I’ve purchased. They somehow managed to make a good looking and affordable boot. I did run into an issue with the inseam coming apart on the inside of one of the boots. Luckily Thursday exchanged them for a different pair. I purchased the Desperado and captain in a size 11.5. The desperado is more comfortable. This could be due to the square toe design.

[@sotohc96]

Have you tried the Desperado boots with slim jeans? If so, do they work well?

[@richardgatling4663]

I honestly bought these Thursday cowboy boots as soon as they came out. 1 bc I needed and wanted some. I do not regret the purchase.

[@lincolnwalburn]

I would be interested in the cut of the other two Thursday cowboy boots as well. I think it'd be interesting to see the makes of each of the boots and the components. Thanks for doing this!

[@Gam1ngGor1lla]

Currently looking for a first Cowboy boot so I'd kill to see you make a sequel to this video soon.

[@robotsmash0077]

A cowboy boot that would be cool to cut apart would be an Anderson Bean S3000. Seems like they use leather for the sole and counter and then use, for this model, a large rubber sole with a pattern on it. Could add it to your made in USA videos since they are made in Mercedes Texas

[@gustavofranco4336]

I bought a pair of the desperado in that same color way. So far they been great they look and feel amazing I have only had the for 6 days and I worn them 4 day straight. I gotten a lot of complements. And they are braking it well. I bought a full size down to a 12that is what I wear on dress boots and shoes on sneakers I can wear a 13. Great product for the price. Am glad you cut them in half for me now I know what they really gave me and so far am super happy with all the materials they have. Thanks

I purchased a pair in my normal Thursday size and wound up having to exchange them for a half size up. The boots feel great - broke in quickly and are wearing well. I work in an office so I'm not really needing a "work" boot. As long as they hold up like my other Thursdays they'll be great!

I had some desperados, they were very comfortable but the heel on my right boot kept separating from the boot. I took it into a cobbler and she said she fixed them but possibly made it worse. Best looking pair of shoes I’ve ever owned though.

[@Baldybrew]

I just bought this boot and I'm pretty pleased with the quality for what I paid. Similar to the other Thursday boots I have. They are one of the few boot companies that come in my size (16 US). When I saw they made western boots, I world I've only recently dipped my large toes into, I had to try them. I also have a pair of Tecovas, and what a boot! I'm going to have to look through and see if you have reviewed them, but I love them. They are a size 15, so a little tight, and I was looking for something I could wear more casually. I have run my other Thursday's ragged and I'm happy to have supplemented them with these. We will see if they can hold up to my everyday abuse.

[@groovygannon]

I have already bought Redbacks for work, Solovair for not work because of this channel, and now I gonna convince myself I need a pair of cowboy boots from Thursday.

Oh, and I like the deeper dives on RA2 channel. So an All-Thursday Cowboy roundup is of interest to me.

Bought his particular boot and I am happy with it. Great price $250 for a pair of quality boots , you can’t beat it.

[@DanKacey]

I have 3 pair of captains. 2 without the lugged bottoms and one with. The sizing is different on the two without lugged bottoms. One is a size 10.5 fits perfect. The second pair was far to big and I needed a size 10. Regardless returns and exchanges are free so that was easy and the boots are very comfortable right out the box. Minimal break in required

[@Spectt84]

Thursday is one of the "best bang for the buck" quality footwear manufacturers on the planet, if not THE very best. I hope someday they offer [wide] and even [2X wide] widths someday. I want to get a pair of their sneakers SOOO bad but I have really wide feet and I know it would be a disaster. For some reason, I can get by with some styles of boots without the wide width, I still would prefer wider options.

[@TheResaleWorkshop]

Just noticed theyre offering wide options in some styles. The captain and a few others. On their website, Right above the color of leather you'll see width tabs. Pretty neat

[@Spectt84]

@@TheResaleWorkshop Awesome thanks, I'll check it out. Last time I looked I didn't see any. 👍

[@zacweggeland9912]

The Matte Black rugged and resilient lowtop sneakers for some reason are plenty wide for me (I wear EE width boots), the white sneaker and black w/ white sole are super narrow and hurt like hell. Their Diplomats are also wide enough for me, but in Captains I need the wide version. Their sizing is a little all over the place but their return/exchange process is very quick and easy

I own these boots in black with the rubber bottom. I work as a police officer and wear these on duty for 12 hour shifts. These work great! Scuffed them in a fight, doctored them up and you can hardly notice. I hope they continue to make this boot just like this!! For i will be buying a pair yearly. 7 months on the pair I’m wearing now. The rubber bottom, flat black and square nose makes me love this boot! P.s. i have US size 12s. Fit great.

I love Thursday boots for "regular" boots but ifk about the cowboy boot. I'm sticking to my Tecovas Cartwright boot.

[@XXXENOWRAITHXX]

The middle portion of the boot is called the waist. Really high dollar dress shoes usually like to have a nice fiddle waist.

[@SnaggleX]

Where's Toaster? I just realized I have not seen him inspecting your work for quite a while.

[@MissingLinkMTB]

One year later.... I had an issue with a corner of the rubber sole coming loose about a month in. Thursday promptly sent me a replacement pair of boots. At this point I've worn them every day, all day. The sole is showing slight signs of wear, the leather has held up great, and I'm sitting here wearing them as I'm typing this, before going outside and blowing leaves. Even having arthritis in my right foot, these are the most comfortable footwear I own, even compared to my Brooks running shoes.

[@Sergio-uy4ew]

I was waiting for this video as soon as they announced the boots. Knew you wouldn’t disappoint.

[@DukeDevil56]

I purchased the Thursday Maverick in Anejo, and love the boot. It’s my everyday walking cowboy boot and very comfortable - breaks in very quickly. I find the fit equal to my other Thursday boots in 11.5D - I also own the Captain and Wingtip boots in 11.5D. By comparison, I also own a Tecovas Dillon pecan caiman belly boot but sized in a 12D - the 11.5 was too tight in the instep on the Tecovas.

I am fairly impressed by the Thursday cowboy boots. Enough that I will have to try a pair. I want to compare them with the comfort of others in my collection. Tony Lama became an inferior boot when they were bought out by Justin. Luckily, I still have a few older pairs of Tony Lama's when they were built right.

[@jerrypomroy2375]

Yes! Thanks, Wes! You’re the man! I asked a few weeks ago if you could get the Desperado & cut it apart. I think I’m getting them. That exact pair to be my “everyday” western style boot. I’m also interested in the other 2 models as well. Particularly the Frontier in their shiny Brown color for more “dressy” occasions. I like the other model but my experience with that round point toe is hit or miss. Edit: So, I have had this exact boot for a little over a year now along with the Thursday Maverick in Anejo. I absolutely love them. The desperado has become the boot I reach for most. It is literally that comfortable & versatile. My Mavericks are very comfortable as well, but I wear those as a more dressy boot. They’re also super light. These two were my first Thursday boots. I received a pair of President’s in the Mocha Suede this past Christmas & to be perfectly honest, they hurt my right heel. Not sure why. They also have a sloppy fit & I need to tie the laces really tight to help keep them somewhat sturdy on my feet. It’s almost as if I got a wide boot even though they aren’t labeled as wide. I won’t be ordering anymore President’s or even Captains. So I’ve literally only wore them about 3-4 times because of this. But I absolutely LOVE my Thursday western boots. Even more than my Tecovas Dean which the foam has seemed to bottom out & they feel a bit hard underfoot but a cushioned sock helps. I tried a thin insole but it crunches up my toes in the toe box.

[@hawjfamily321]

I don't have their cowboy boots but I have bought a few other models. They are really well built with the exception of their cavalier Chelsea boot. The leather on the bottom tore within a few months of wearing it and started folding over the rubbber studs on the bottom. They're probably better off just sticking to either full leather bottom or full rubber.

[@F_K3NT_D]

I’m very interested in these and glad you did this. I got the email from Thursday a few weeks ago about these boots and figured they were decent quality, now I know. I own several pairs of Thursday shoes and boots and really like them all.

Why have we not seen a double H Jase boot? Both a high quality cowboy boot and mtusa.

[@walterrojas1075]

I feel like there are plenty of western boots for around the same price, Double H, Ariat, Tony Llama, Twisted X, Justin. I’ve personally gone through two Double H and three Ariats. The Double H are durable and made for work, but they aren’t very comfortable for my foot. My first pair I wore for 2.5 years, I slipped once in them. That’s due to a dark room and puddle of oil I didn’t see. Ariats aren’t as great for work in my experience, but boy are they comfortable. Barely any break in period, but they also don’t last as long. Not sure what brand to try for my next work boots.

It's got a nice hung liner like the tecovas and chisos. That also makes them easier to slip on and off but having no leather in the footbed/sole is a big deal breaker

[@amadeiusc657]

They were painful to brake in but i went through it and than noticed after all that that insole was actually not wide enough so i sold them... Oh well When i got new ones in half size down they were great fit but toe cup was too low and i wasn't in a mood to go through it again like with first pair so i returned them and got true to size that bother me less with toecup.
