I’ve commented re: Trickers boots on previous Chap’s Guide videos, so all I’ll add here is that these are superlative country boots. If you buy them, you will almost certainly love them. I love mine. They are worth the cost.

The Stow actually comes in the greatest variety of leather types and colours. The standard ones are Acorn antique, espresso, marron antique, and C-shade. Then there are lots of variants, for example on a single sole (no midsole, which makes them more lightweight and suited to warmer weather) or on the flexi leather sole. They also make the Stow in Kudu and Olivvia leather (tanned with byproducts of the olive oil industry instead of chromium). Espresso is probably the most formal look, but at the other end of the spectrum there is bright red and green with a light Barbour welt. They even used to have colourful soles by Itshide, but now they switched entirely to soles by Dainite. While the colourful soles were not to everyone’s taste, they did wear less quickly than the Dainite does. Where the Malton differs from the Stow is the width: the former has a 6, the latter the standard 5 that you will find across most of their footwear. Otherwise fantastic quality and proportions, nothing comes close in this segment. I wouldn’t buy anything else.

I own Stow in C shade tan, brilliant boots, took a bit of breaking in, but now so comfortable. The only thing wrong with commando is stones tend to settle between the groves. Trickers are worth the investment, my Burford boots are 40 years old now and still beautiful.

@Blueguci 3 месяца назад

Congratulations on your new Trickers, the enjoyment of owning and wearing those boots will last for decades after the pain of paying for them has passed. I look forward to a review in the future.

I have the stows and they are absolute tanks. One of the prized pairs of my collection .picked them up at 275 GBP a couple of years back and I can't help but think that was a killer deal.

Trickers runs holiday sales as well. As a wearer I would say that it is well worth saving for it. Better than Locke et c. without reservations.

@josephteifer9714 3 месяца назад

These boots at the factory store prices are probably are a value that has no rivals. I own that same boot and it is a prized possession. I love the company tradition, but more importantly the quality.

I followed your advice and while in UK for few days i paid a visit to 4 factory stores and left with a pair of Isley boots from Crockett & Jones. They were worn by James Bond in SKYFALL they sure are good for me, too :-) All good advices, Ash! Thanks a lot and keep going!

@UnknownUser-rb9pd 2 месяца назад

Tricker's boots are frequently discounted from retailers as well, particularly in the summer (winter boot sales time) . In the last three years I've purchased four pairs of new Tricker's boots at UK prices ranging from £200 to around £350. Obviously you need to find the size and model you want and the most common sizes are usually sold quickly (luckily I'm a UK 12). This is different from (for example) Crockett and Jones which are rarely discounted more than 10% to 15%. I've also found Tricker's leather quality is a step up from the other brands you've reviewed such as Cheaney but I own many more Cheaneys simply because overall I prefer their styles and lasts. However, I do enjoy my Trickers and like the fact that they have a different aesthetic from the other brands I own with their wide welts and broad heel base.

I have a pair of C shade Bourton shoes. They are about 7-8 years old they are simply incredible value for money. I must drive down from Co Durham to visit the factory shop as your boots are a bargain. Buy once, buy the best!

I discovered your excellent channel a few days ago and have binge watched since. Excellent advice and information. Just imagine what a difference it would make if your advice was taught in schools. We may have a generation of young men that took pride in themselves. I especially enjoyed your advice on shaving and razors etc. Your diction is excellent too. 🙂

@jbcarseiii 3 месяца назад

I have acorn boots. They definitely age away from Bart Simpson yellow. But, they balance well with Navy blue. Not the best color for my skin tone, but I am a navy veteran so, I have a lot of it in my wardrobe.

@SilkStorm_101 3 месяца назад

Trickers and C&J's are my favourite British boots, very well made although for the zombie apocalypse I would reach for a Nicks boot which are really built like tanks. The only boots I have that come close to Trickers quality are Viberg and Iron Boots, although they are more expensive, looking at Indonesian boots next 😀

@darrellclaunch1518 3 месяца назад

In his DiscWorld book series, Terry Gilliam had the 'boot theory of socioeconomics' that you speaking of the cost per wear immediately reminded me of. Basically, being poor can be expensive. "The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money. Take boots, for example. ... A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. ... But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while a poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet."

@05Rudey 3 месяца назад

A very nice pair of boots, retail price is very near the pair of C&J Islay £510 I got nearly 7 years ago, I think they have gone up a bit since. Still look new. When the time comes I will opt for a factory refurb. Boots for life pretty much. Hope you have many adventures with them.

@ronaldpoppe3774 3 месяца назад

Great looking boots Ash. Funny a Trickers commercial came up right after your video. It was narrated by the first woman bespoke shoemaker. I have two pairs of Allen Edmond boots one is very similar to the one you just purchased and the other are an Oxford laced dress boots. Those commando soles will come in quite handy. I like them on my longbranch Allen Edmonds. Cheers Ron

@MarkmanOTW 3 месяца назад

Good to hear why you chose the Malton over the Stowe boot. Great point about considering the other footwear you have and not making other pairs redundant before buying - sustainable and complementing what you already wear (instead of unecessary duplication).

Handsome boots, Ash. I own a few pairs of Trickers and those are on my wish list. As far as cost, Loake has increased their prices that almost match Trickers. I own a few pairs of the Bedales and they are over 500.00 now. Yes, one can find them less expensive elsewhere. I feel lucky to have paid 300.00 a pair the past few years. All the best!

After I've purchased Stow in espresso, I've decided to let go of my barker bailey, 2 Allen Edmonds oxfords, and C&J Coniston,(don't like the shape of the last too pointy for rugged use) Realized that my lifestyle leans more to casual activities And decided to own only 1 shoes 2 boot, for I will enjoy more if I own less (thinking of only 2 Pairs) Stow boot espresso Ramsey Alfred Sargent Havant suede AS (thinking of disposing) Good bye Rabbit hole

I see that factory tours can be deceptively expensive! You might want to wait for a few months before going for a factory tour at Crockett and Jones, just in case there's a pair of dark brown Islays calling your name at the factory store. 😂 But they're incredibly nice boots to wear outdoors. Enjoy!

@philw4053 3 месяца назад

Thanks. Great video. I'd be interested to know how long you think they will take to break in - given the thicker leather.

@TheChapsGuide 3 месяца назад

The break in has been very minimal. I’ve put in a few miles on these now and they are very comfortable - undoubtedly this is down to the roomy last.

@petereastwood7868 3 месяца назад

I hope that you will do a follow up telling us about the break in. Looks like that’s going to be quite a long process, requiring things like soaking in a horse trough to wet mould the leather to your feet, and so on.

@TheChapsGuide 3 месяца назад

Quick update - I've put about 20 miles on the boots in the last week and there was actually no break-in period required. The more generous last of these boots made them immediately comfortable and discomfort free!

@neiljones8832 3 месяца назад

Stunning boots you’ve scored there Ash, absolutely perfect for the country environment. As a matter of interest how do they compare fit wise against your Burford’s? I have a couple of pairs of Loake Chester which I think is based in the same last as the Burford and would be interested in hearing if you’ve had to size down as Trickers are generally regarded as being quite roomy.

@TheChapsGuide 3 месяца назад

The Maltons are certainly a bit more roomy and perfect for wear with a thicker sock. In contrast, my Loake Burfords are a less generous last and I prefer wearing them with a dress sock opposed to a thicker hose.

@John_in_da_UP 3 месяца назад

Can you address the fit on a future follow up video? I have found that the boots I own are typically 1/2 size down from my size when measured on a Brannock device. Since most of us live nowhere near a Tricker's retail outlet (Crockett and Jones has a US presence limited solely to NYC) our usual option is eBay or the manufacturer's website. A little insight would be appreciated.

@TheChapsGuide 3 месяца назад

I don’t think I’ve owned C &J, but I’m struggling to remember, having owned so many shoes over the years.

@johnbunton9177 3 месяца назад

Shoes definitely are the foundation of any well-dressed man's outfit on any given day, whether working in an office or walking through the countryside. These Trickers boots look wonderful, but at over a thousand dollars in Canadian funds, plus shipping fees and import duties, they have a price tag I am not prepared to pay. As far as these boots lasting thirty or forty years is concerned, the odds aren't great that I will be around in thirty years, much less forty.

@marcusscrafton535 3 месяца назад

I don’t follow your logic re the cost Ash. I’d happily pay for a pair of Trickers, admittedly at sale/discount price, but I couldn’t countenance spending £5k on a watch.

@TheChapsGuide 3 месяца назад

It is a solid question sir and one which I aim to discuss in a future Q & A video soon.

@velviaman3206 3 месяца назад

The soles of these country boots have a turned up sole at the front, important on rough uneven ground. I cannot see this on your dress boots which I would describe as “ town and country “ boots. This feature used to be very popular in an exaggerated form with hill shepherds. I wish you good health to wear them.

Could you please make a video on clive christian perfumes....

@TheProco2020 3 месяца назад

You are pronouncing the model as Mal-tun, I presume they are named after the Yorkshire town which is pronounced Maul-tun. Nice boots.

@Bigwave2003 3 месяца назад

Did you purchase these in your usual size and width? I've seen comments online that Tricker's sizing can be tricky, since it differs from other brands.

@TheChapsGuide 3 месяца назад

I did buy true to size as I was seeking a proper country boot and intend to wear a thick sock with the boots, but the country last in quite generous and the Malton is a 6 width fitting (wider than the standard 5, but less so than the 7 extra wide).
