I love watching this channel, i learn a lot. For instance, Whites company. WOW, they gave the whole crew their boots. That alone tells me that company is serious about their product and take pride in their work. That makes me want to go get a pair now. Way to go Whites! its nice to know you are seeing reviews and making adjustments. Im sold! Thanks Rose Anvil for the update and keep it going, i think companies need to know that people care about what they buy.
White select definitely looks like #1 to me. Better shank and WAY prettier tongue than the JKs, better sole attachment. Easily worth 30$ to me but only 11 dollars extra. Beautiful and tempting! Btw, any thunderdome update on your Aldens? Are they still intact?
It's now my favorite Moc Toe. My Danner's Bull Run where my favorites. Still in good shape after 3 plus years of wear. I am getting them resoled. But the Perry's are working out just fine. Perfect for my job as a truck driver. I am ordering a pair of 6 inch Perry's in Tobacco Stampede as well. I use my Thursdays for weekends only. You are right about them for not being a true work boot..Thanks for another good video. I guess I am your most Moc Toe enthusiasts out here...
Thanks for all your info on these bad mofos. Just got them because of you and your homies review of them and the interview you did with the Seidels. Oh yeah, this vid too. Thanks for doing what you do man
"the whole team"... You mean a buncha hipster teenagers whos only use is sewing a buncha ridiculously overpriced wallets so they have a job. Since I'm sure they're too lazy and spoiled to get a job where they are actually utilized.
I have the regular perry's. That counter is stupid and made me wish I went with something else. Now that they broke in, they are fine and I enjoy wearing them.
I've had my Perry's for 4 months or so and honestly I can't wear any of my other shoes anymore. I was going to get a pair of 300s to bounce between buuuuuuuut, I love my Perry's so maybe an upgrade is in order. I wear them for work in a factory. Not super dirty but hard on my feet use.
Just received my pair and I love them. I have wore red wings 877 for years but never like the little arch support and thinner leather. Whites Perry fixed all that and the select is an even better choice but the one complaint I would still have is that the tongue isn’t gusseted higher up. That is one thing red wing has done better in my opinion especially if using for work in the northwest like where I’m from in Seattle and water is always a concern.
I went to redwing to get the 8inch classic Moc. Did my foot profile on their machine. Foot too narrow. I needed an 11 in a B width. So. I tried to get the 10877 8inch Moc since they said they offered a B width. Well it turns out they aren’t making the 8inch in a B width. No way I could’ve worn a regular D because it swallowed my foot whole. So I emailed redwing. Been 2 weeks now and still haven’t gotten a response. I was gonna see if they would make me an 11 in a B width. It does say they offer it on their website. I haven’t gotten a response. So I emailed White’s. They responded in less than 2 hours. Sent me everything I needed to get all the measurements of my foot and said they would be MORE THAN HAPPY to make me a custom pair of boots based off my measurements. That’s customer service if you asked me. I’ll never look redwings way again. And it’s weird because in Thorogood I can wear the D width no problem. They almost too narrow. Almost. I don’t get these boots lol. They’re all so different. But can’t say enough good things about Whites. They’re number 1 in my book. I really like my Thorogoods. I have 2 pairs of their 8inch Mocs, but I wanted one of the higher end pairs. Redwing let me down so I’m going with whites.
I think Weston is wrong when he says the Red Wing 875 is uncomfortable or is not a good work boot. For me it is the perfect work boot for landscaping. No boot in my 57 years has performed better.
I think the Perry select is more for the money compared to the JKs for the $100+ dollar difference. I may have to get a pair of the Select so I can use my Perrys for work. They're too nice at this point but that nice leather may supplant the standard Perry.
Can you guys redo the CAT vs timberland pro video? In the past you compared the second shift 110 dollars boot to the timberland pro which is around 165 dollars. Would make more sense to compare CAT boots that are in the 165 dollars price range like the alaska 2.0 or superlite
I had to return mine twice because the sole kept separating, got them back with the vibram sole, better but I still have a separating on the front toe area. Now they want more money? Lol not worth it
For the money you can't beat Red Wing moc toes. Best construction for the price, plus the history. For other boots you can branch out, but for moc toes it's only Red Wing.
I like Red Wing the best, hands down. Best price to performance, plus the history of being the original moc toe, and they are the ones most people will recognize.
Yesterday, I received my first pair of White's Boots. I ordered a pair of Millwood, Hybrid Wedge, Brown Distress Leather, with a Black outsole. They arrived exactly as I ordered them and they were stunningly beautiful! Even better, they felt tremendous on my feet right-out-of-the box! So what if they take 1,2, or 3 months to arrive, that ONLY means that they are being made with exact instruction & care as the buyer ordered. Be patient, because when you get your White's Boots in the mail, You are going to be tremendously pleased and crazy proud that you now own perhaps the greatest American Made Boot! Stop thinking about it, Go Out and Buy Yourself a pair of White's Boots, You will NOT be disappointed!
I’ve had the original Perry for about 18 months. The brown leather has aged and patinaed magnificently. I’m sure the Doubleshot is great, but not sure it would look any better than my boots do now. I wear custom orthotics, so the leather shank wouldn’t do much for me. I’ve had no problems at all with the cardboard counter, which is sandwiched between thick thunks of leather anyway. The new Perry Select looks great, but the “problems” it fixed aren’t really problems, IMHO.
I just ordered these in British Tan, my sizing was between the D&EE, so Whites recommended I send in a tracing and measurements of my feet. They are going to send me try on pair in the size they recommended. Customer service it excellent!
Ordered my Perry Select's the second they dropped! I got the Tobacco Stampede because I couldn't take my eyes off how beautiful that color was! As far as MITUSA goes, I'd move it to 1 because the Double Shot leather is better then the JK'S. I have a pair of JK 300 and love them but I am just a sucker for a killer Moc Toe.
I have the second iteration of the regular Perry's with the vibram sole and they're fantastic. My only gripe was the insole. I took it out and bought some 7oz veg tan and made my own leather insoles and now they feel like a true heritage boot.
@@NogGonnaMakeIt not at all. I've been wearing them 8hr/day 4-5 days a week for over a year and the counters are in the same condition as when I bought them.
Love your vids but man you guys need to go back to having more blues/ grass banjo music when you guys do the reveal on when you cut these boots open! The hip hop vibe just ain’t it man and don’t represent the average boot Wearing workin man! Lol
If you're thinking of getting a pair, I've done everything from spike camp backcountry trail work to landscaping to factory work on a concrete floor in them, done 12 mile days in the mountains in them with a 40 lb pack and a chainsaw, etc. Used one, and only one, pair to the end of their lifespan. I also served two seasons of trail crew in a pair of White's, so I can compare and contrast. I second your suggestion, I would LOVE to see them cut in half. Preferably the 2233, the most iconic.
I’m surprised nobody is complaining about the toe cap! It is collapsing like it’s made out of cardboard!! No structure whatsoever! I have two pairs of these boots and on both of them the entire front end of the boot it’s way too soft! I have red wings, Thorogood, and Carolina boots, and none of them have this problem. I’m curious to see if anyone else has this problem.
The biggest thing holding me back from getting these (or other similar moc toes) is that I just don't like the white wedge sole. If they put this on the different colored versions of the Vibram 2060 sole (like on the Rambler) I'd definitely be throwing down some money. Those burgundy ones look really good.
Isn't it hilarious how a company "listens" to what people want, yet this dumb boot is not offered with different color vibram soles which we know exist, and no safety toe option. Also you mentioned the rambler, they don't offer roughout option for these boots either, which is superior for work. When you look at the leather choices, you know they will get sliced up like crazy. All 4 of these major boot brands refuse to give people what they want, and if they do - it will take 4-7 months to build it and cost $700+.
@@mad0uche sorry I don't agree with you. JK customs boots, about roughly 8-12 weeks give or take, whatever options you want, around $600. Pretty much solves your problem I think
I have the Perry and also the Redwing 1907. Redwing is a much better boot. I want a pair of Nick's but can't justify the almost double cost for $50 more boot.
My premiums came with a big, stained blotch right in the middle of the toe box. They look horrendous. Quality control is garbage. Waiting 10 weeks for disappointment is guaranteed. They don't even bother entering a tracking number so hope for the best.
if you get the original perry on the yearly sale, you are looking at a 260.00 pair of boots, if they don't match the discount with the selects, than the original is the clear winner, just buy them at the right time of year. My Perry's are great, but I still prefer my Chippewa Edge Walkers. PLEASE REVIEW THE "Edge Walker", I would love to know how they stack up with the competition because they feel awesome on the foot.
I just received a pair of these, and I have some toe jam with the insole inserted. I understand if I wear them without the insole they will be very stiff to start. Will they eventually break in and be comfortable? Also, will I feel the clinch nails that are exposed? Or should I return them for a larger size? Thank you for any advice you can share.
I love your videos man, you do a wonderful job. There is just one thing that drives me nuts I wish you would change, you always cut the laces right down the middle, and then almost immediately take them off the boot. Why not save them for spares, or send them to subscribers, something anything. It’s just such a waste since you take them off, after cutting them.
