[@edwardhoops6197]

Alden shoes are phenomenal. I spent thousands of dollars on high quality shoes working in car sales until I found Alden shoes. I bought two pairs, one black and one brown. I got them in the nick of time because my feet were in bad shape. I'm a polio survivor and one foot was a few sizes smaller than the other. Alden accommodated me by selling me mismatched shoes for a little more than the normal cost. We took careful measurements of both feet and sent them to Alden. When they arrived they were a perfect fit, something I had never experienced in my life. They wore like iron and looked and felt perfect.

[@Stridewise]

I LOVE this story for so many reasons. That white glove support that higher end companies offer make it all worth it. Well, to a lot of guys anyway. Glad they're still lasting you and glad we put them at the top of the list!

Allen Edmonds far better shoe.

[@fossil-bit8439]

@@DavidP793 than Alden??! No sir. I do love Allen Edmonds and own a few pairs. I have one pair of Alden’s that I got at a thrift store used and the quality of materials, attention to detail, and craftsmanship is better. Allen Edmonds has slipped in quality over the years and their products aren’t fully made in the US anymore but with “globally sourced” supplies…

[@DavidP793]

@@fossil-bit8439 I didn't know that. I have 4 or 5 pairs from AE but they were all purchased at least 10 yrs ago. I send them in every 2-3 years to be restored and they come back in great shape. Too bad the quality has slipped.

As a power lineman for over 4 decades, I’ve climbed in Knapps, Lehighs, Chipewas, Red Wings, White’s and IMHO the best climbing boots are Wesco Highliner. Wesco will send a ruler and instructions to measure and trace your feet to build a custom shoe and if they wear out, they’ll rebuild them for you. Best boot I ever climbed in.

[@Rlinn78]

Wow I haven’t heard Knapp boots in a while.

[@carlcarlamos9055]

I have a pair of those I’ve worn less than 15 minutes in the house. They fit well, but because of the way they are constructed, they are painful to wear. I have a pair each of White’s and Nick’s that feel fine because they are constructed differently. Sometime I’ll take them to Trenton & Heath and see if they can straighten them out.

[@Stridewise]

Can attest to Thorogood boots, particularly the Moc Toe Wedge being great. Worn it for 3 years, day in and day out in wet, rough conditions and they've held up well. My tan Thorogoods formed a dark patina and are now a fairly dark brown color. They still clean up okay, but I recently bought a second pair to have the originals sent out to be redyed and resoled. For comparison, a pair of Red Wing blacksmith boots worn for a year in roughly the same conditions were letting water in through the stitching and eventually wore a hole in the leather where my pinky toe was. The Thorogoods are also way more comfortable. I don't think I'd work in a heeled boot ever again unless I was up on a latter all day.

[@ericochoa4271]

All I ever wear are heeled boots you just gotta find comfortable ones. I need the heel because I do line work so the heel makes me feel safer when I climb. I have waterproof red wings with the supersole 2.0 and comfortable are as hell. I'm on my feet all day and I'll wear them over my sneakers on weekends since they feel more comfortable.

I bought a pair of the Thorogood Moc Toe boot for my work, and they are probably my MOST comfortable boot. I work in a glass shop, on hard concrete floors all day long, I used to have hip and knee pain on my left side from wearing cheap, improper footwear. Decided to spend some money and get these Thorogoods, and I love them. I almost want a second pair that I can wear casually around town but its a want, not a need. Definitely recommend these if you're working on hard floors for long periods and need support for your feet.

The crossover we all deserve

[@elderhiker7787]

I started wearing Danner's hiking boots in 1975 and I've never looked back. They are extremely well made with top quality leather and other materials. But, the most important attribute is they fit well. I have wide feet and high arches and Danner just seems to get it right. The reason I don't try other boot makers is fit and comfort. I've never been disappointed with Danner's and I don't want to spend $300+ dollars for a "fashion" boot. I want comfort, support, and durability in the terrain that I use them. I'm 77 and I just got a new pair of Danner 650's for my birthday and they are super.

Being from the Pacific Northwest, I am always gratified to hear mention of WESCOS's, White's and Nick's boots. But I am always baffled that Danners get left off of that list as well! They build some high quality boots, but they have become a big company making shoes for Cabellas, Eddie Bauer, REI and other outdoor stores, at a price point where the retail shop can make a profit and still offer a decent boot. I used to be mostly interested in hiking boot brands growing up in the 60's and 70's, like Vasque, Asolo and Danners. Now, there are just so many good brands out there that to make up an exclusive list tends to leave off several brands of high quality, rebuildable, long lasting boots.

I bought 2 pair of Axel 1000 Mile boots. I returned 4 pairs, before I felt I received pairs that were acceptable for a $400 pair of boots (I wanted the Vibram lug soles on the Axels, wish I did more research or saw this video to open my eyes to some real boots) There were quality control issues with straight stitching, blemished leather and crookedness of the leather.

The leather is better than in the wolverine boots and with my work I don't have to worry about it falling apart.

I’ve worn Whites work boots for work work, their packer boots for farm work. I’ve worn Red Wing iron rangers for daily wear and their super sole 606’s for work (still US made) these are the most comfortable work boot by far. Danner Quarry USA for work and their Bull Run for daily wear. Danner are great too but, I tend to lean toward the whites and Redwing because I don’t like lined boots and they have a larger selection of unlined actual work boots. They’re all great though. I also have a pair of Allen Edmonds shell cordovans that I love but their a bit dressy for me and a bit too casual for dress up if you know what I mean.

Surprised Danner didn't come up given their Military quality. Good video regardless

[@user-qm9oo2fd2o]

Have you read the reviews on Danners own website? I was shocked as I’ve worn Danners for years. Their work and hunting boots are great!

I just bought a new pair of *Chippewa Ellison* 6" lace-up boots about 2 or 3 weeks ago. So far I love them, they're breaking in well. :)

[@paulellsworth4007]

I was turned on to Chippewas and now I don’t buy anything else

Your all forgot to mention Wolverine boots, some good ones still made in USA !

[@zack9912000]

what is sold at the local stores are made in China, have to order from their website for usa made

[@marksayers3721]

Very informative video I would love to see a video on the best western boots I know there’s many brands and some brands are made by the same company but I would love to see that one

Would appreciate a similar comparison for women’s boots. Thx!

While I love my red wing weekender chelseas, I feel like they got away with selling us a $150 boot for $250 because it is in the heritage lineup. Again, love them, but do feel they are overpriced, especially when considering the type of stitch out construction

[@edyue1]

Yeah don’t forget the cardboard insole layer 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@antoniorafaeltoneperna6368]

I wish you guys reviewed that origin boot
