Need these in Buffalo with a darker sole. White is a good contrast, but dirt shows so easy it and it takes away from the overall aesthetic appearance. I get it, it’s a work boot. This feels more that an all-day wear in a variety of applications.
I’m also not a fan of the white outsole; wish there was a tan or honey-colored Vibram wedge option. Nevertheless, this video is an excellent explanation of how the Forefront is made and I’m sold! Can’t wait to get them.
Just got my forefronts a week ago and have had no trouble breaking them in at work. I never expected them to be this comfy right out the box. This is my first pair of boots made to this level of quality and I'm hooked. I'll be ordering some OT's as soon as the wife let's me lol.
Great job on the boots guys! I’m a few weeks into mine and I am loving them. I can’t believe how flexible and strong they are. Love that you cut them in half too. I guess rose anvil doesn’t have to now.
Ordered mine last week, can't wait to get them! Debated for a long time between these and the 300's, think I'll be pretty happy I settled on these. Love all the content you guys put out, it's the reason I chose you guys over some others. So much information made it an easier decision.
I’m a month and a half into my Bison Forefronts. I love them, in fact I’ve basically left all my other boots in the closet. Every time I have them on somebody says something. Given I’m in So Cal it’s not a common boot. Love it.
I'm watching this while wearing my forefronts, great boot. I'm in a factory on concrete 10-12 hrs a day and they do great. Now that the thick insole has my foot worn into it the feel great. With other boots I was in a hurry to get home and get them off, but with these I've not felt the need. Next is a pair of the 300 so I can swap them in and out. Thanks for what you do and making quality boots.
Just ordered a pair of these, the brown leather with a black sole. Can’t wait to get them but I did select the 26 week lead time to help pay for the $100 custom black sole. Love all your videos Tim and is probably why I purchased your boot over the others.
Just got mine a few days ago and I am extremely happy they fit perfectly and super comfy ,honestly I wasn't expecting them to be this comfy ,yea they are bad ass
Just wondering when JK is going to make a moc toe? I own 2 pairs of JKs now the ot and the forefront and i assure you i will buy a moc toe if JK ever makes one!
Great boot. Tough but supple, three weeks in and they feel like a well fit slipper knowing it can handle whatever you throw at it while in the garage, yard or just banging around. Nice work JK.
I own a pair of forefront and I love them, was wondering if you have a video of the ot boots cut in half, also I tgink I can use a little more arch support in my forefront what can I do? I have 2 different feet so I struggle to find perfection.
Seeing the cross section is so helpful! Thank you! This boot would be darn near perfect for me, but the thing that has me concerned is the half tongue. If the tongue was sewn in all the way up, then it would be perfect for me. Maybe that build would exist in the OT but with the wedge sole instead? Thanks again so much!
What about those christu soles though? The only thing I'm skeptical about when trying to convince myself to pick some of these up is it just seems that sole tread will wear down smooth in literally no time I feel.
The thing that keeping me from picking up a pair of these is that currently my wedge boot is the redwings and when the sole wears abit i feel like there isnt enough material between my toes and the ground. And ive seen cut downs of this and the redwings and they are very similar in that area. Hard to chose these over nicks or whites which have 2 layers of leather in that area.
Thanks for personally taking my call!! I measured everything and am confident that the sizing will be good. Something that would really, truly help, would be if you actually put some ends measurements on for the width as well. Especially for larger feet. I had to search the internet for 20 or 30 minutes to try to find what narrow average and why it actually meant as far as inches.
I really want to learn how to make boots, do you have classes? If not can you start selling boot making sessions? I feel like I missed my calling in life, I’m absolutely addicted to boot making content
I really want a pair of these boots; my only concern is with the outsole, specifically how slip resistant it is, or isn't. I'm a mechanic and I'm on my feet 12 hours a day, on concrete that's usually at least a little slippery. Any information regarding the outsole would be helpful. Thanks.
Why dont you add a giveaway into you yt channel. It'll make it much bigger, almost instantly. It'll make more people engage. Even if you did, omce in a while, for my youtube viewers you have to use this link for x amount off, good for 48 hours. Stuff like that, will really build the yt platform into something much more than simply 1 avenue to advertise. I would like to know more about the guys actually working there. Yt isn't ever only about solely your name and the boot, we wanna see the skilled men/women working there. Once a month interview 1 of the workers and give us a 10 minute quick interview of basically how they got there. Maybe even, base it on a performance type thing. If ur getting interviewed its because you performed the best this month, or made the most improvements, or that could be a once a year thing idk.
Today this boot is MSRP $499.00 + tax. This boot should fully leather lined at this price point. Your boots aren’t ground breaking and unique. They’re just grossly overpriced.
