WHITE'S FIRST BOOT UNDER $300! But is it any GOOD? - White’s Perry Boot Review 

Don't forget to get a Rose Anvil leather wallet or belt or MORE here - bit.ly/44jXLNu

I really appreciate the company sending you a boot with a small flaw to cut in half rather than waste a whole good pair by cutting in half, It would be nice to see this from more companies you work with in the future

Quick Clarification - Whites doesn’t use the cardboard counter in the majority of their boots but they have the cardboard counter in the past in some of their more affordable boots with great success. As far as I know their regular $500+ boots use solid leather counters.

I’m really loving the addition of the centre cut score

Honestly, I watched your review and I decided to pick these up, had no idea it was going to change my life in the most positive way! Thank you 🙏 hands down the Best boots I have ever purchased! Thank you man! Keep doing you!

I work as a footwear salesperson at Cabela's. I really appreciated the video you made cutting open the carhartt boots. I will try to steer customers away from them. Do you think you can cut a pair of muck boots in half? Specifically the Arctic Ice series, they feature 'vibram arctic grip' which is made out of some glass nylon or something. I'm not sure what it is, but the traction is incredible and I would love to see what's inside them. (They are also insulated to be suitable for use in -60 degree weather, it would be cool to see what that looks like, too.) I know muck boots aren't leather, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask. Thanks! Keep up the awesome content

Wearing White's right now and I love them. Never had a pair of boots feel so good on day number one.

These we're the first moc toes that I think look nice, and the quality looks real good too! Also *squee* Toaster! I miss my kitties, they couldn't come to university with me.

It’s between these and the redwings, for me. Whites has teased an eight inch Moc toe coming soon, I think I’m going to get that or the redwing eight inch, we’ll see the price tag when it comes out. We’ll only know how good the counter is when someone wears it for more months than it’s even been around. An amazing boot for the price point, from a renowned company.

Wow ... I like them! :) ... Now we need to see the Chippewa and Carolina's cut in half!

I live in Spokane, and Whites has been a legendary main stay in the work and stylish casual footwear for ever it seams. At 66, i worked construction and building powerlines alongside side coworkers wearing Whites daily. Such high quality and craftsmanship goes into to each boot. Biggest issue is always wet conditions. Galoshes took care of that problem. I also have a pair of the Perry mock toes and really like them. Such a qualit product.

While I was placing an order for these boots this morning, the White's site updated with a new color for these Perrys. It's called Red Dog. Snatched up a pair immediately! Looking forward to receiving them in a few days.

The boot scores 95% in my book. Practical, comfortable, aesthetically pleasing, affordable, and good quality. On a lighter note though, X marks the spot at 13:10 😂😂😂

Really fun to watch your channel. Family friendly, informative, and interesting.

A White’s boot under $300 is very exciting. Great video, thanks!

Well just found this video today and ordered a pair, there’s a 4 week back order on them but your video sold me on them!

How awesome of White‘s to send a boot with a cosmetic defect for cutting! Thoughtful, kind and sustainable. Warms my heart, makes me think they’re good people and I’m honestly going to look into them first now when my current boots bite the dust (I’m on my last resole)

If these came in a safety toe, I'd be all over them for work. These would pair nicely in my workboot rotation alongside my Thorogood Moc Toes but according to White's Customer Service, this boot is too new and they haven't had time to test a safety toe on it yet. Hopefully in the future.

I just purchased these as a work boot based on this video. Break in was a little tough with the biggest pressure point being the top of my feet but are starting to get really comfortable. I conditioned these boots immediately upon getting them and they definitely drank in the conditioner which I think helped with break in. Thanks for the great review and looking forward to getting them resoled with a leather mid sole.

I worked Oil Field Services in the Austin Chalk for 20+ years, and Red Wing slip-ons got the nod with almost every crew. Most saturated the boots, dumped them out, wore Thick socks on day one. Next day they were left to relax and dry completely. After that, the new ones were worn alternate days till broken in, then worn regularly unless wet through on a very wet location, as we did some board locations where swampy. My experiences were in a smaller company with around 100 hands. We set, knocked down, stacked and moved drilling rigs - Plumbed tank batteries - set pump jacks - all with pole trucks or cranes. Also, we supplied tooling - drill stem - and downhole equipment while standing, working in any weather we encountered. I hope this helps.

I own a size 10D Perry in the distressed brown. I chose the Perry over all other Mac Toe boots because I like the look of the Perry. I wear my boots casually and at work in the office but not in the field. The leather is thick and the break-in has been difficult. I don't wear them daily which is why they are close to comfortable after about about 40-50 wears. The boot is quality through and through. Get yourself a pair when the are on sale in June and Black Friday.

Looks like amazing value for money.

Just ordered a pair of 8” Perry’s in brown. I have had their Smokejumpers for years and have switched careers. I love their products, will keep you posted on how they do out in the work force of Construction Inspection.

My personal favorite of the series, and the best deal at that price! Thanks!

I hope Halloween is some crazy goth boots!

Meramec Group is the supplier of the polyurethane outsole. Made in Sullivan, Missouri.

Really enjoyed moctober, sad to see it end but can’t wait for the halloween special!

White's getting into this price point is game changing. I've always wanted a pair of their $500-$600 dollar boots but could never justify paying that much for a single pair of shoes. Defiantly looking forward to what else they release in this price point in the future.

I bought the black pair. The quality by far seem better than most moc toes. Thick leather is a plus and quality products. Very well built. Leather seems 2 times better than redwing boots. Only thing is the style seems too wide from the front. Feels great but looks are a little off because of the width of the front. Other than that these would beat any boot out there.

That cut center score always makes me laugh. Good to see you have fun with it.

Love my pair of Perry's.....high quality inside and out.....due to the "last" that they use, def. Size "down" one full size of you decide to order.

They looks amazing

Ok, I got a pair of the 8 inch Perry's. First pair of White's boots. Wore them for 11 hours today, 11,125 steps and this is the first time EVER wearing any brand new boots without getting a blister somewhere on one of my feet. I've been wearing boots for about 39 years for every work day. Until now, I always got blisters for the first couple of days. I normally wear 9EE and ordered 8.5EE per their website suggestion and they are the perfect size for me. I also have a pair of 4 year old Thorogood moc-toe boots, and I am not sure I want to get them refurbished (re-soled). These Perry's are spoiling me and I know they will last longer than the Thorogoods. I would say that thye are just as comfortable and just as easy to break in so far.

Quite possibly the cutest cat I have ever seen. And i'm not normally a cat person. I flinched every time he came around and didn't get a scritch lol. Lord I'm turning in to a softy.

My top 3 from this series is Thursday, redwing and whites. Can’t wait to see the finale. I love Trenton and Heath!!

What a great site. Much more in depth and informative than others. Your channel is a “one stop shop” for any prospective buyer of moc toe work boots.

Best center back stay cut yet?? Keep putting in the practice, maybe one day you will achieve 10/10. Loved the video! I’ve been waiting on this one all week!

$380 on their website today, June 27, 2024, plus $35 shipping to Canada. Did not look at import duties.

I keep getting Dr. Martens ads delivered to me as pre-roll for Rose Anvil. I guess the algorithm doesn’t know about some of the earlier videos... 😂

Very interesting and entertaining. I have Whites and Nicks living one hour from Spokane. Just bought a pair of Zamberlans. Cant wait to see you review that style boot.

5th, Also, if the shank is in the outsole, when they wear down and you replace it, won't that process throw away the shank ? Maybe I am overlooking something I don’t know. Anyways, I have been looking forward to this video all month long and now I can't wait for the finale, especially since I love both Nick and Trenton & Heath. Can't wait to see how you compare these two the red wings in depth. My only complaint on these is the color, the Red Wings Oro Legacy leather is too damn beautiful.

Fast forward three years and they’re not under 300 anymore, but they’re still great and have an even better (but more expensive) model. I wound up with 1907’s because of the thicker foot bed and the fact I don’t buy things I can’t try on.

I really like Trenton & Heath, excited for the crossover.

Just bought a pair in the black and I’m impressed!

After watching this video and the Moctober videos probably a dozen times I bought the Perry's boot. Here's my 2 cents. I almost bought the Red Wings but after all the horror stories about the break in period I decided it just wasn't worth the pain and trouble; it appears the sole will wear out right about the time they feel comfortable and broke in. I felt confident buying this boot after watching this video series. I wear a size 13 in all my shoes so I called Whites and they confirmed to order a size 12D. I've been wearing the boots 2 -3 hours a day inside for the past 3 days and will say these boots do run quite large and the 12D even feels almost too big in part because my width is between a B & C. Had I been in the store I would have liked to try on an 11.5 for comparison. I changed out the insole with a thicker insole and it fits better, hopefully it won't stretch out and be too big. The quality and workmanship of this boot is very good, they are heavier than I thought they'd be. Appear to be very tough with the exception of the Vibram sole.

I just found out about Whites boots. Glad I did.

Just got this boot two days ago. Damn that leather is thick! Soo comfortable to wear and the soft soles are like waling on clouds.

I contacted White's customer service rep and they are cleaned out of the Perry because of this video. Amazing how tubers can move the meter and sell products.

Hey, I really enjoy your videos and this series was very interesting. Why do Moc-Toe boots all seem to have the wedge sole? I'm in Ireland and Its not something you would see on boots over here in Europe - unless it is someone actually wearing American boots. And thats very rare. Also, it would be cool if you could try some European brands, Loakes or William Lennon. Anyway. Good channel, well done.

Danner Bull Run is a really moc toe as well. They run under $200, and made in Oregon.

So mad I wasn't watching when this video came out. I'd be working 7-12s out of town and would have bought 2 pairs when they went down to $215.

I’d love to see you review Jim Green boots!

I'm a Wolverine Gal, but I've been noticing their quality is slowly waning as they keep changing where they're manufafactured. Now made in China. But those look really nice and I'd try them. I'm going to check out more Moc-Toe Series Videos. New and happy subscriber here!!

I hear cardboard and I'm immediately worried about water damage. you should've tried spraying water on them.

Just grabbed these for Black Friday

Fantastic perspect and comments.

Now that White's has changed to Vibram Cristy soles in the Perry, I would think that the shank is now on top of the sole like the Thursday and not inside the sole.

Overall, I think I’m still liking the red wings 👍 looking forward to the finale !!

Been waiting for this all month!!! I see it's hard for you not to have an ear-to-ear grin.

Maaaan, now I REALLY want a pair of these...

Enjoyed this series, I have the Redwing 1907 copper rough and tough for about 3 years now and they were a bear to get broken in but they are my favorite boot, I also have the Danner Bull Run Moc Toe and they are ok and I do wear them occasionally but the fabric in the toe where they sewn the fabric to the tongue together would always fold up when I put the boots on and I had to trim that down. I am really thinking about purchasing a pair of the Whites I like the look a lot. I really enjoy these videos keep them coming.

Thanks for all the work you do. Moctober has seriously made me reconsider my low opinion of moc toe boots. I also have some Mark Albert boots made of similar leather to these White's also from Seidel tannery and I really like it. Might have to try a pair of the Whites now.

Awesome review! Thanks for bringing the Whites into the mix at the last minute! Will you ever do a service boot series?

these are making me wish i didnt buy new boots this summer... :(

Absolutely the best boot review channel! I could not stop laughing when the red X showed up at the end of the video……, Great humor!

Being from a country where most shoes range from $25 to $100 and are for the most part just glued, seeing this brand's "cheapest" boot being $300 felt kinda funny. Also just checked their page and the layout is so good, love them separating the boots by uses instead of models. Shipping here is terrible and returns are basically non-existent so wouldn't get them, but if I ever visit the US I would totally get a pair.

That's cool they sent you a flawed one to cut!

Looks like a really well made boot. I'm not big on that style, but those are nice looking boots.

I was literally thinking during this video that I love my Danner Bull Runs but have some issues with them and thought these White's fixed all my complaints, and then you said it out loud! Can't wait to try a pair

Maybe a review of the Hillyard boot from Whites too?

I’m from Spokane?? Why didn’t I know all these companies are based in Spokane, versus just have shops there?? Haha! This has been so rad to learn!

If Whites is in the "Top 3 American boot brands" who are the other two? Alden, Nicks, Wesco ... Thursday? lol

Really enjoy your breakdowns. Would love to see some Keen boots on your channel. They make work boots and hikers. Recently came out with a mock toe/wedge work boot. They also have some interestingly designed styles.

I love my moc toes and thats a good looking moc toe.

Super excited to see the finale! Quality content as always

Will you do a classic brands series, such as Alden, Crockett & Jones, Carmina, Allen Edmonds, etc. ?

Here for Toaster. I sort of like these boots. My big downcheck is the sole. But that could be replaced. Just have to add a shank to the process.

-High quality boots? Check! -High quality videos? Check! And now you're saying that even your sponsors are making high quality stuff? Man, this channel is dishing out more value than a money printer!

This is close to what im looking for. A budget boot with cork in it to shape to my foot. I think the toe box is a lot more attractive on both this one and the round toe they also sell over the redwings. but idk how i feel about the external counter with the cardboard support. It makes it look a little big in the back too. I might like that though because i have really large ankles and any room i can get in that area is important. Lots of good info in this video

Those. Whites. Moc toe. R. Awesome. Looking. I. Want. A. Pair nice

you have the best assistent

Looking at that compressed cardboard counter: It’s on the “outside” of and can potentially be exposed to water. How will it respond to getting wet or saturated?

I have been thinking about the Red Wing classic mock toe to wear when I ride my motorcycle. After watching this video, I think I`ll give this boot a try. Thanks

Pet your cat!

I'm curious to see how the longevity of these boots compare to Thorogoods. I use to be a huge fan of Georia's but prefer my boots to be made in the USA.

White's. Is there anyone else? My friends, colleagues, and I have been wearing their boots since before 1970. I'd be a fool to go with any other brand.

"...the best in THE WORLD! - ehm... in America" 😄

$335 now at boot barn here in Ca.

Damn it all!! I bought a new pair of Redwing 1907s today. I would have preferred these. Two year edit: After wearing my 1907s for 2 years. Even though break-in was a nightmare. I’d be hard pressed to spend my money anywhere else. I am a Redwing fanboy now.

You need to do a series on the most popular US Army approved combat boots. From Nikes, to Oakleys, to Danner and Belleville.

White's and Danner are both owned by the same Japanese shoe company. that may explain the similarities in the boots or why it seems like the white's are an upgraded version of the danners like you said.

Just want to put out a white’s boots warning out there for November 2022. I ordered a pair of boots during their Black Friday sale. They charged me. I got an email telling me the boots I ordered were discontinued even though they are advertised on their site. More significantly they said it will take 14 days to get my money back. I’m sure they’re lovely boots. BUT I’ll never know cause I’ll never buy one of their products with that kind of customer service.

Please do the Hillyard as well.

I've heard some pretty mixed reviews about the Perry and White's customer service. If I was going to drop $350 on a boot, Nick's is the gold standard and you're only $200 away from a pair of Nick's... I would wait patiently for another couple months to save up more cash and go for Nick's Traveler Moc. Buy nice or buy twice.

Listed as lifestyle boot. Will they hold up as work boots on a construction site?

I wear Danner's Bull Run Lux Vintage Sterling with the dark brown soles. They are extremely comfortable and been through 2 resoles already and the uppers are still very good. I would love to try these White's as well as Nicks Moc Toes but just hate the white soles. To me wearing white sole boots is like owning a car with white sidewall tires. Must be a fashion thing because all the Moc Toes come exclusively in the creamy white sole. Nicks as well as all others are the same, and the odd pair of Danner's Bull Run Lux Vintage Sterling is the only exception in the market. Just to illustrate a point that not everybody likes white sidewall tires as in boots with creamy white soles.

Thank you so much for Moctober!

Bought these this year I think these are some of the nicest looking moc toes out there I get a lot of asks about them and for me there was no break in period very comfortable to a smile as soon as I put them on and all the way through the end of my day honestly one of the most comfortable boots I’ve worn BUT THAT DAMN POLYURETHANE OUTSOLE I HATE WITH A PASSION the outsole wears just as fast as all the other poly ones do which makes a smooth boot practically useless 🙄 -union construction worker

Definitely buying these in 2024
