I recently ordered The Stormking in Tobacco since I found the studded Captains were trash for CO weather. I went a half size down this time and have yet to try them on and past the return period. I'm happy to hear that sizing down is the way to go! Does the toe box get more roomy from your experience wearing for a while and stretch? Does it stretch overall and break in? I have a feeling they're gonna fit quite snug. I wonder how they have broken in for you now compared to 1st trying them on. Thanks man great video.

Thursday Boots are excellent boots. They took a big bite out of the market. Wolverine responded with their BLVD collection, which easily beats Thursday Boots. BLVD boots look and fit much better. They have genuine Vibram soles. The BLVD collection sells for $199. Thursday responded with the “StormKing” sole, which bears a strong resemblance to Wolverine BLVD boots.

Are Thursday boots waterproof?
@GentlemansJourney4 жыл бұрын
No but you could purchase some waterproofing chemicals to add to them. However, if I recommend that then I'll get a ton of pushback online as how it will ruin the leather.... lol

What color were your original Thursdays?
@GentlemansJourney4 жыл бұрын
I got the Brown, they give off a red color on camera and in person. If I wanted the traditional outsole again I'd go for the Arizona Adobe, Burnt Copper or Terracotta. I like the Rugged and Resilient line so the Terracotta would be my third choice.

I've seen folks come up with similar things like this. Maybe it varies by season or supply. Still, hard to depend on the color at times.

I just could not do this companies boots. They are good budget boots. I ordered a couple pair when they first started up and did try to like them. They just made my feet sweat and the foot bed did not work for me. I did order another pair a few months ago as their product line had greatly expanded. Gave them to charity after a couple wears. These boots are good for a budget boot and a starting point to see if you like the ankle boot style.

@@GentlemansJourney I have a pretty healthy collection of boots. Most are Alden, Red Wings, White's, Lucchese and Nick's. I do try out other boots from time-to-time just to check them out. Not on a large scale but most of these usually do not make it into the keepers category. Thursday, Helm, Allen Edmonds and a few others brands did not make the cut. Nothing wrong with the boots I did not keep. Most are decent when factoring in price point, and other criteria. Some boots just did not look good on me as well. Not a boot snob but like anything, you like what you like and you normally get what you pay for. Any clothing I buy regardless of price that does not stay goes to a veterans charity. I could sell them but would rather help other folks in need.

Not a bad video, man. I appreciate the time and effort you're putting into them and hope you're able to grow your channel. But you may want to check that link on the Thursday Boot Co "Caring for Your Leather" page that you included in your video because you may be giving people advice that could damage their excellent boots. Scroll to minute marker 7:53 of your video (kzbin.info/www/bejne/rp67fWV-qJKVjqc) and you'll see the link in the "Note:" section of the webpage from Thursday's website that you included. Specifically the Note states "Note: If you are looking to clean or treat Grizzly Wheat, Terracotta, or any "Rugged & Resilient" leathers (Arizona Adobe, Tobacco, Black Matte, Canyon, Burnt Copper, Sandstone, and Colorado), click here for instructions. Do not follow the instructions below." It's inadvisable to use a smooth leather conditioner on Thursday's Rugged & Resilient leather. It's not a smooth leather. Thursday doesn't advertise it's tannage but it's likely a nubuck leather that's been weather treated and that means you really need to treat it like suede/nubuck when it comes to cleaning, which means NO smooth leather conditioners, creams, or waxes. Can you use those products? Sure, it's still full grain leather after all. Can it negatively affect the leather? Yes. Is it guaranteed to negatively affect the leather? I'm not going to say that but it will definitely change the texture of the Rugged & Resilient leather over time after repeated applications and can also affect the weather proofing. You don't need take my word for it, but you could take Trenton & Heath's word for it - kzbin.info/www/bejne/eqiUl5Vme92shqc.
