Those fashion brands tend to vary in quality randomly between models, Gucci for example sells anything from nice Italian all-leather shoes to dressed up plastic crap. They might work with different OEMs wich would explain that, I‘m pretty sure they don‘t have their own factories.

Chukkas are my favorite boot. I like ankle protection and more ruggedness than sneakers. But I don’t need construction boots and certainly not cowboy boots. Chelsea boots are ok, but I find that chukkas are a bit more secure while not being a pain in the ass to put on. I think more people should try chukkas.

I thought the chukka series would be more popular. It’s an under-appreciated boot format. More than a shoe but without the heft, weight and hassle of a taller boot. BTW, I have similar complaints about the Clarks Desert chukka. I end up buying version called Clarks Desert Welt. Same boot but with good year welt construction and think double leather sole.

Great video, and I know you can't include all the boots that can fall into the "Chukka Boot" range, but I ordered and received my custom-made Truman Boots, made on the 79 last... they are phenomenal. They are Goodyear welted, cap-toe, and not a terribly high shaft, and I think they actually can qualify in the Chukka category. They are impeccably made, and as for the "custom", well, they sell regular and wide widths, and my feet are narrow, so, I asked them if they could make me a pair in a "B" width, and they are the closest thing to custom boots, and they fit perfectly, right out of the box, with minimal break in time. The ROUGH-OUT leather is again... phenomenal.

Ikr? I never had boots because I live in really hot and humid climate. I'm planning to buy one and I think chukka boots look clean and minimal. Chelsea boots do too but I personally find them a bit feminine. Moreover, their slim profile makes it difficult to wear with my broad feet. But I hear Chukka boots have a wider toe box.

I've enjoyed what I've seen of this series. I found an unissued pair of US Navy soft-toe "boondockers" (black chukka-style deck boots issued to recruits) dated 30 April 1974 earlier this month. Not a single crease in the leather or a hint of wear or dirt on the soles. I paid $30 for them but the materials and construction would likely cost north of $200 today, with leather insoles, leather vamp and tongue lining, a huge steel shank, and fully through-stitched Goodyear-welted soles. Even a mass-produced military contract boot had craftsmanship in 1974. They shined up nicely and the leather is as supple as if they were made last month. They look as splendid with a suit or even a kilt as they do with jeans. Your videos have really helped me understand what goes into a quality pair of boots, and to appreciate it when it can be had. Keep it up. Looking forward to the WW2 series!

I got a pair of Jim Green vellies a year ago, after seeing his review on the Razorbacks. I do manual labor on concrete floors, and the vellies have held up to be both super durable (only scuffs on the top grain, can buff out/re-oil) and most important, super comfortable - I put a superfeet Insole in them, and out of several different types of boots I've worn, they are just about the most comfortable on hardtop surfaces (you really notice poor support/comfort after a few hours of work, night and day difference). I'm considering getting a pair of their roughout leather chelsea boots (outbacks) just cause I like their vellie and razorback so much.

Had some of the Vibram lugged gumlite soles put on and they are delightful now.

Exactly! I almost never wore shoes after finishing school. (It was mandatory back then.) Everything is too narrow for my broad feet. Only very few brands offer specially a wider toe box. (Like Asics but it's athleisure wear.) Recently, I came across a KZbinr who says the reason for narrow shoes/boots is because the leisure/elite class wanted to differentiate themselves from the working class. Because the working folks couldn't work in those shoes even if they could afford it.

I've got 7 or 8 pairs of chukkas in my closet. All but one pair are Red Wings, the other is a pair of Mason Postman Chukkas. Chukkas are comfy, quick on and off, and can be dressy, casual, or rugged. Over the last five or so years before I retired, I bought boots to last the next 30 years, before my income would be cut back in retirement. I can't imagine spending 300 bucks or more on work boots now, glad I don't have to, but also don't have to wear crappy shoes that hurt my feet.

You're channel has inspired me to condition my Red Wing boots for the 2nd time ever since owning them for 4 or 5 years of moderate wear. I'm just curious if you've ever done a video on maintaining your boots and what tools etc you use. I know you've mentioned Mink Oil and a couple of the conditioners you use but I'm looking for how often I should be conditioning, how much or how little to apply, what kind of brushes you use, if there's any specific pattern or techniques you go for a good shine vs a matte buffed look, etc. Also thanks for getting me looking at buying boots that are way more money than I should be spending at the moment. I mean I can certainly afford them from a fiscally responsible point, just that they're higher up my priority list than they should be cause of you. Keep up the awesome videos.

I like them for what I wanted them for. They’re squishy and so casual looking they don’t look weird when I’m in shorts and a tshirt kicking rocks and throwing sticks for the dogs at the river.

For walking purposes I switched to New Balance 624s, and they are much better to walk around in. So I think that at least when it comes to sneakers, Skechers are more about the looks than the quality. I also have a pair of Skecher sandals that I use at work, and I have had better sandals as well...

The vellies with an insole is by far the most comfortable and had only a 1 day break in and is my go too for a workshop slipper. I wear them 3 days a week in a woodshop.

@@BenMelluish The Red Wing Weekender is Sitch down construction and not Goodyear welted. Most of the time a resole might cost more than the boot itself.

Next year you can do a chukka update and include 4 or 5 boots that viewers request to fill in the gaps. This review provides a thoughtful overview over a wide price range. Yes, it is missing a few $500 and $1000 boots, but it is also missing some $30 outlet boots. Perhaps make rack to hold the half shoes and slot in the new contenders--Top Gear style. Also consider an "Anvil" score, each boot rated on durability of its components. A "Rose" score would be its overall value.

I have been wearing "Bata" vellies from Rhodesia since the days it was still called Rhodesia. Crepe outsole, suede upper. On duty & off duty. I have never had the sole crumble or fall apart in chunks. And when the stitchdown is a problem, we add stitches right through the crepe sole. Lekker shoes and only about $20 & they last about 3-4 years of continuous use.

I'd like to see a review on the Veldskoen chukka boots. Originally only available in South Africa, you can buy them in the US now. They claim they originated the chukka design and everyone else copied it. I've been wearing the heritage model for five years now. I'll reserve comments and wait to see if those are reviewed later.

I love all the series you do, just wonder why you don't choose some more famous brands to cut? I think all brands like Alden, Allend Edmonds has Chukka, new brand like Beckkett Simonon has Chukka, even Common projects also has Chukka and we all wanna know what's inside them. Jim Green and Clarks as starting points I think not so triggering. Anw, love all you do, the chart format is super helpful, keep up good work!

I go through em like butter and they're a crucial part of kit. Would be nice to see whats holding me up all day and where I should be spending my money! Cheers.

This episode sort of threw me. I have been wearing Clark's Desert Boots since the 80's, and I love them. Chukka's are different from the Desert Boot, in usually having a harder sole and a heel. Desert Boots have a crepe sole, without a prominent heel. In my opinion, the Clark's original Desert Boot is the best; tan suede, comfortable, and go great with a pair of jeans, shorts, khaki's, and when you're driving your Land Rover. I have a pair of Beeswax Clark's too, but the suede are still my fave's.
