[@jimmylarge1148]

I dig in old dumps for antique bottles. The only things u can count on finding from over 100 years ago is THICK metal stuff (axe heads, cars etc) glass stuff and…..leather shoes. I’ve dug some boots that looked like u could throw a sole on them oil them up and wear them. The sole was completely gone but the leather upper was 👍🏿👍🏿

[@EvilSSP]

Man this leather is so badass, I hope by some miracle Jim Green can get some of this for customs, I'd be willing to pay the premium for them to source it.

[@JoeyLevenson]

I’m in Japan, so I’ve ran into Whites quite often. They are gorgeous and their soles are insanity. I just stick to my RW because the break in must be crazy. Hey, Rose, my advice: wanna make money? Get that blood leather into Japan on exclusive products. Guaranteed sellers. That’s exactly what their leather heads want!

[@ShadeSlayer1911]

Break in is definitely killer. People say that Iron Rangers are a bitch to break in, but after wearing my JK boots for 3 plus months and STILL not being fully broken in, the Iron Rangers are a breeze by comparison.

Actually, I have a pair of the Drifters 2. No major issues. Only thing is the White’s bite in your ankle area. The leather was soft. I dunno about the blood core leather though.

Fr that's always the most nerve-wracking part

[@TheRealLOLExpress]

Have you brannocked your foot? If so, then you should be good. I brannocked my foot, got a half size down for a roomier fit on redwings (which customer service said fits almost the same), and it's been amazing. I could even go another half size down (full size down from brannock), and be good. But I'm hoping I did the same too xD I went full size down since the last is an anatomically correct last, and don't want my foot sliding down. I also don't want to have to tie my boots super tight to prevent that.

[@TeensierPython]

That’s why I hate buying boots and hats online.

I bought the same size as I did with red wing and they fit perfectly. Hope that helps.

[@stevecrawford7814]

Red and Black! Great colors.

[@Why_It]

These are the first pair of boots that I immediately clicked the link to buy but had to hold myself back. The leather and styling is beautiful. But I honestly can't bring myself to pay a premium for a 10-inch boot. My calves are built and will definitely be constricted with the height. If I suffered from LADS I'd have a harder time resisting. But if this was in a form factor that encouraged everyday wear (not saying sneakers, but also NOT not saying sneakers), actually showing my life style, then I think it'd be perfect. White's lifestyle Perry and Millwood 6" boots are kind of the perfect vibe I'd look for in this material. That's just my opinion, but a 10-incher feels like a commitment of style over my comfort. But how they are now, I think it's gorgeous for most outfits. I could see these as the new hipster theater-kid cliche. Doc Martin's were iconic for the yellow stitching, but the blood-core is like a classy-brutal vibe.

[@Sturnburn772]

the chart at 3:30 isnt accurate. Theres no way leather gets "stronger" over time. Comfortable sure but don't gaslight your audience who dont know better

[@johnerickson470]

Have you reviewed the Kenetrek?

[@klausbecker4745]

2:39 what do you mean by "strong"? like you say the grain is tighter and holds everything together. so its actually the stronger part. if you split a leather down the middle and make one boot from the flesh and one from the grain side, the latter will most definitely last longer. the reason why a roughout boot is durable is that the flesh side "absorbes" the cuts and scratches while the stronger grain side is not damaged and thus stays strong

[@JsoN-_-]

Why does he open boots with a brown insides then the hero shot shows a black inside leather? Odd inconstancy. Maybe it's pre production vs what's actually shipped?

[@JsoN-_-]

Watching again, he def isn't reviewing the actual product in the second half of the video.

[@pcarrierorange]

@@JsoN-_- The boot he's broken in (which takes weeks) is a preproduction test model. You can tell because the production models haven't been released yet! (and he does this with all his collabs)

I love leather but genuinely i do want more ethical leather because a lot of faux leather is also very carbon heavy same as the mass farming for leather and i do hope that moving onwards leather is more ethical similar to the jim green boots. As much as i love leather i think a mixed lining like a thick linen and hemp twill on the toe area and leather can be really great since in history it was mainstream for a while, and was really good. This is just a preference for any shoe which i think should bring back and its not really related to this lol. This looks awesome i love the red, also the cutting hurt my heart cuz uve already broken it in omg.

3:56 While you don't replace parts that aren't broken or worn through, you do not forego relaquering and repainting ships. Failing to do so drastically reduces their lifetimes as they become far more prone to rot and shipworm.

[@crispychimkin4090]

Using leather in quality boots to make them last longer is also likely better for the environment because you would buy less boots, using up less produced materials, ultimately taking less from the environment overall.

[@crispychimkin4090]

underconsumption, taking care of what you already own, is better for the environment. It also teaches you to take care of your things, including the environment around you.

[@namenloserflo]

It depends on where the materials come from and what you want to achieve. If you want the best for the animal choose leather from a farm where the animals live in comparably humane conditions. If you want the best for the world climate choose the most efficient farm where the animals live in the worst conditions and get slaughtered as soon as possible. It's probably still better for the envirronment to use organic, plant based materials though...

[@Jake-bt3fc]

Lmao, maybe you should work at a construction site and see how much waste they make in a single day. That's what's actually killing the environment. My last Columbia synthetic boots lasted like 4 years and they're only a few ounces of trash.

I love to do long walks after work and also it often happens i have to walk when its very rainy. So i went for dr Martens 1460 crazy horse. Awesome looking. Problem is that 1) they are not waterproof as they claimed 2) they are hurting my feet a lot 3) they feel unconfortable even after 2 weeks of conditioning. Now im sad because i never spent so much into a pair of boots and never been so disappointed at same time. I was thinking to give them back and hope for a refund (i feel frauded tbh), and go for a timberland. Any opinion in this?
