Is it ok to wear shoes or boots that have white bottoms in the fall and Winter?

[@Tea-Spin]

anyone know what shoes is that on 5:23?

[@rpow6861]

who i their right mind would want personalised help from that thinks boots with a zip up the side are some how cool lookin?

[@AshlleyRollo]

​@@branhamphotos5354bro that would look absolutely cool in fall but not in winter 👍 in winter i think you should buy dark grey suede Chelsea boots that would look absolutely beast 👌

[@emmanuelrodriguez848]

For the casual work boot category try Nicks Handmade Boots. They are pricey upon first look. Once you have then in hand, you realize that they are a bargain. Once you break them in, you have an heirloom. Mind you, these boots can do real work. My favorite boot is the Officer, in brown chromexel, toe cap, and a 430 minilug sole. As a person that always purchased "budget" footwear as part of a frugal living lifestyle, my pair of Nicks converted me to a person that will splurge/invest in high quality (material, fit, and craftsmanship) footwear going forward when needed.

[@drewbranch7700]

I align with Ashley’s perspective on seeing shoes as an investment . I absolutely love shoes,but my cash flow is limited,so some of us are slowly building our wardrobe. I recommend brands like the following: meermin,Paul Evans,carmina etc. I just got some red wings and loving them,but breaking them it’s taking a minute😢😂

[@mickeytran1936]

500 bucks carmina is budget to you?

[@AdzPower]

I mean I appreciate the advice BUT I have had a pair of Timberland boots for over 5 years and they cost me $80 and they're still going strong and look great, I use them very often on hikes.

[@makalu877]

I would like to echo your thoughts; I have many Timberland boots that cost me well under $200, some I've worn for 10 plus years. Some I've even worn while working on cars, getting on the ground and grinding the heels and scuffing the sides of the boot........still going strong. So no, you do not have to spend $200 for longevity.

[@lexdiamond20]

I dont think shes been to Nordstrom Rack.

[@davedixon2167]

Don't know if you've seen the guy's video that recommends dark olive green over black and brown, but the way that color looks with all the paired colors of clothing he shows is VERY convincing of his logic. Not limiting at all! Dark for sure, though, as normal olive falls into where Ashley was saying.

[@r.vazquez7880]

Chelsea, chukka, and hiking boots are a hit with the right outfits. Always go with good year welted. Costs more but worth it in the long run.

[@minibando3660]

i would say hiking boots go with a hiking outfit... while hiking. Please don't wear them regularly

[@chiquita683]

Chukkas are yuckkas. Prefer work or fashion boots without the designs

[@edwardshepherd5275]

True!

[@Bayou987]

I feel like dark olive is a great starter color for boots as it’s extremely versatile

[@StealthFX9]

I agree with that! 👍🏼

[@Josh-us6so]

I usually rock mine doing fall/autumn season.

[@jeffrendered3564]

cheap boots are NOT worth it! She's absolutely correct. $200 is the minimum. Thursday boots has an amazing selection.

[@DepecheModeDaddy]

Hi love the content ! I am a fan of zip up boots myself… very clean and sleek look . I feel every Instagram mens fashion influencer owns a pair of Chelsea boots in every color to match their skinny jeans …that look is done to death!

[@dougday2288]

Thanks for stepping up with more stellar content, Ashley.

[@claytonmarkin7863]

My wife likes my boots and how long I've had them. I've had my Iron Rangers longer than I've known her, and there is something cool and masculine about having something that long that still performs well.

[@josezerpa8177]

great video Ashley! thanks for taking the time to create this life-saving content for all of men out here.

[@Kinosec-10]

As a woman, I definitely agree that women will notice your shoes, especially if they are dirty or unpolished

[@PacoElMapache]

I have been wearing combat boots almost exclusively for the last 5 to 6 years. Some of the best boots ive seen are the vintage army surplus leather boots. You can get them for like 50 bucks. They usually have good year welt. They are as good as my 400 $ pair of cowboy boots. Some European combat boots look rugged and sleek. They work well with almost every outfit For suede boots in the slush and cold i snoseal them. Yuu loose the fuzzyness but get the waxed flesh look. It looks really sharp

[@thullraven1]

I don't own any of the boots mentioned here. I own tactical boots which I USED to wear for work and still do when doing chores. Other than that, the only boots I own are Western boots. I'm not a cowboy, but I am a Texan. All my boots are excellent quality and aren't meant for work, except for one pair. Every pair is black, so they will go with everything I own. They are of a variety of styles, but are all snip and round toe types. I hate square toed anything, so they won't be in my closet. I was surprised to see that Western boots weren't on the list. When I'm dressed nice and wearing my boots, I often get compliments on them.

[@marlonalatiit1609]

thank you ashley! been a sneaker guy for over 2 yrs. but i got inspired to wear boots again! excited to wear chukkas, chelsea, and would love to wear DMs!

[@apelincoln8427]

I've got a cheap $50-ish pair of faux leather moc toe boots from Kohl's that have held up for well over 6 years at this point with very little wear. I rock them every fall and winter, casually, but still holding up just fine. I'm going to upgrade to real leather at some point, but in my opinion there is no need to start there if you are on a budget and just plan to wear them casually.

[@clupow7735]

i like your videos and the way you describe outfits and style, but i have a request; you seem to make tips for tall skinny & big guys . yet you never had anything for the smallest dudes out there so maybe in the next videos you can make something for us 5' - 5'4 guys ? it would be awesome.

[@rockygabriel7096]

Pro tips, not all boots over 200 worth , not all boots under 200 bad, just look for discounts, make sure the upper is leather, if its cemented/glued just take it to local cobbler to stitch it, for cheap, if thr sole cheap go to cobbler change the aole with others(vibram, crepes, commando)......

[@brandinogibson1273]

I've had my Timberland suede Chelsea boot that cost $75 for 12 years. And I wear them for everything.

[@NuttyCuts_]

I remember having timberland Chelsea boots as a kid and I wore those everywhere too, I really want some now lol

[@kevinjamessanchez8299]

The only video where I agree with Ashley. lol but gotta admire what you do, keep it up!

[@manuel_winde]

I have 1 pair of full price boots (red wings) but have got lots in the sale for under £100- Blundstones, Timberlands, Russell & Bromley, DM chelsea boots and Richard James Mayfair Chukkas that are all fine. The advice to not get ‘cheap’ boots (meaning poor quality disposable fashion) is good but it’s not as simple as price.

[@agentzero8988]

Why are light brown / beige / sand boots not recommended and rather dark brown? In one video you said they are trickier to pair with clothing, could you explain the difference in versatility between beige boots and darker brown? Thank you!

[@ShadyGFella]

I have great boots well under $200 that I’ve had for years, this channel is always hilarious.

[@bryanguest2807]

Yep. Full or Top grain leather and goodyear welt or blake stitch. Saying you should spend $XXX.XX on anything clothing related is completely useless. Just look at the crap fashion houses are gluing together in China and charging ridiculous amounts for.

[@myballsitchsomethingfierce6319]

What kind?

[@FranciscoHernandez-do3qz]

Good for you, I actually don't own a pair of boots under $300. Comments like yours are always hilarious.

[@ShadyGFella]

@@FranciscoHernandez-do3qz you look like you don’t own weight under 300 either.

[@NuttyCuts_]

@@FranciscoHernandez-do3qzhigh price doesn’t mean high quality, sounds like you’re just paying for the label

[@_FLAK_]

Timberland makes a very stylish and under $200 REAL leather boot called the Earthkeepers Original 6inch. The leather is sourced from a tannery rated Gold or Silver by the Leather Working Group. Glued soles can be resoled, there is no such thing as repairing either sole, they are replaced.

[@alekseymikhaylov461]

1:39 LOL, these are motorcycle boots with all the protection, not for walking or everyday use. Moreover, many of the boots with rubber and even cemented sole can last for many years.

[@kartikchary]

Nothing beats a pair of Nick's boots or White's or any of the PNW boot manufacturers for me, especially since I'm addicted to flannel shirts.

[@philoki]

What do you think about the trend towards wider fitting pants, which in turn will not pair well with Chelseas? Will the Chukka boot become the go-to?

[@Ray03595]

Great vid. For green boots I think a green/grey tone can work. Specifically Loden suede. If you have a lot of earth tones in your closet i've been able to create lots of outfits with them.

[@bryanguest2807]

Chukas and Chelseas are often cheaper offerings because of their simple design, thats why I like to get them in suede and colors like olive or oxblood. My default lace up boots are horween flesh cacao leather good year welted boots I got for under 200 as seconds

[@donovancarter6198]

My 180 dollar Justin’s lasted 2 and a half years. Still more life just need resoled. Been wearing my current pair for about 2 years and there’s practically zero compromising wear

[@MegaStonik]

I have Redwings, Wolverines and Chippewas… and I never let them go… never

[@bjornironside8890]

She knows her stuff ❤

[@nerigarcia7116]

I was on an airport shuttle and a lady complimented my boots. So yeah, they notice. I have a coworker whom I'm not sure if she's aware of this, but she usually scans me when we encounter each other and she always starts at my feet.

[@mihailonikolic1231]

What do you think is the best option for guys buying their first pair of boots? Also, love your vids keep up the good work!

[@tnetroP]

01:39 "Stay away from leather blends" I see what you did there... that is a pair of leather TCX X-*Blend* motorcycle boots. (excellent motorcycle boots by the way)

[@Eugenetra7]

I have a pair of winter boots made by Clarks that are 10 (!) years old and still look quite nice. Mid height, all black, real leather, Gore-Tex. I bought them with discount for about $100. Extremely comfortable, warm, waterproof, very good grip in winter. Never had any issues, no repairs as yet. This year I got another pair of Clarks (Clarks Durston Hi, olive) for winter for less than $100 (with discount)...

[@Tomas-ml9nv]

Doubt it. After one year the inside of my shoes are well worn away

[@tempestandacomputer6951]

Will disagree with the point against green boots. A dark olive green is the perfect middle ground between black and brown interestingly enough. I'd say this color is a fantastic way to subtly change up your daily wear.

[@arcticfoxvikingseaking2206]

Wait so much good i for but so many questions. Can I wear my cowboy boots if I'm not riding today? What about hiking boots? Do snow boots count as a new category?

[@sephxus9379]

First men's fashion video I've seen. Happened randomly, but you have so many good ideas. It might inspire me to put some thought into my outfits.

[@raymondmartens7803]

Can you do a video for larger guys? More on the heavy side not necessarily tall? I would appreciate some ideas thank you .

[@14bqdonk]

2:53 better words is "if you spent $200 on boots but still tear up faster, why don't try an error by spending less than $100 for a boots because there are many better quality boots with lower price" expensive don't always means better

[@Marelybbmarley]

At 11:11, the first picture of the guy on the left with the dark sports coat jacket. What shoes are those? They look really nice. The light Grey ones

[@michaelblazin4093]

Burgundy and chili let you cover black and brown situations. Black shoes unless casual like double monks are for really formal situations. Dark browns and reds cover a wider area.

[@erikstgeorge5473]

You said avoid greens... Some greens, sure, but wouldn't a dark olive green be even more versatile than brown? I feel like that would go with any color denim or chino.

[@ron74555]

Literally, the best style channel for men on all of youtube. Yeah, the three main guys are good but this girl is a step above.

type "Tim Dessaint" in your search bar and watch where it leads you (to just name one example of the infinite landscape of male fashion youtubers who know hell of a lot more than ashley)

[@chiquita683]

@@minibando3660 lol Tim Dessaint might be good if you are young, fluid and live on one of the coasts. Ashley is the only channel I've found that knows how a man in his mid 30s and up should dress. Yes if you're in your 20s go find someone telling you about the new Jordans. When you have a career, come back here

[@minibando3660]

@@chiquita683 First of all, the fact that you use the word Jordans in context with Tim tells me that you have not watched even one of his videos. Secondly, there are still better style channels for people 30 and up (for example The Modest Man or Mr. Porters "The style clinic" series)

Boots looks tidier, because the shaft height will hide the lace knot up high in the pants. For 8inch boot the knot won't show up even when you are sitting for kneeling down.

Thankyou. My opinions really needed a re-boot.

[@kimmelsadat8642]

I had a pair of boots I got on sale for $75 dollars and I just retired them after 7 years. I think retail was $180. I think you just have to know how to find quality at the lower price points and not just spend money and expect quality

I would agree with the $200. minimum, but there are quality boots to be found under that price range. Years back I bought two pairs of Clark desert boots when I noticed they were on sale. One pair of the stiff leather and the other is softer leather. I wear them all the time. They partner with almost everything.
