Why people buy $548 indigo dyed boots that do this?

Dont cut them apart. Better do a Timelapse how the color change over time.

You are correct that the leather is dipped into indigo as a boot after stitching and not dipped into indigo as a whole hide. I found a couple of blogs from 2014 to 2015 detailing the process used to make the original OSB indigo boot run. It's a really interesting read on the process they use to dip and rinse the leather until they get the wanted blue hue (it turned green during the first dip, which is hilarious to me).

As a fan of Japanese selvedge AND blue being my favorite color, I’d totally rock these! Something I’d do during the break in period would be to stick to jeans for the first few wears and get a whole pack of blue socks lol

Wondering how these are not being talked about in fashion circles rn! Can't decide if they look more awesome paired with denim jeans or orange pants 🤔 I think indigo boots with orange pants is a real statement. Love hearing and learning about the natural indigo dyeing process. Thank you!🙏

An interesting boot for sure. Would love to see more about the indigo process.

I have this same OSB leather, but in their Trench Oxford shoes. They are incredible! Almost immediately became my favorite shoes.

Looking good. Glad to see Oak Street finally getting covered...

I love this silhouette! I have a pair of their limited edition white field boots and they’re fading beautifully! Have considered the indigo pair on more than one occasion

These are sick! would love to see more videos about indigo products.

I have these in a natural leather. Absolutely love them. They're up there with Parkhurst and other mid to high end brands. Great video.

Pumped that you finally checked out OSB! Love my pair. Excited to see them cut for MITUSA series!

Love indigo dyed product and boots. Such a great combination! I understand the hesitancy to do an Indigo video but, you would make it worth it and insightful and a great viewing. You are one who goes above and beyond about product you like so, I am sure it would do well

Those are awesome boots!!! Finally a Oak Street Video...I have 2 pairs of em and love em....and I think it would be awesome if you did videos on raw denim and the selvedge world...I just ordered my first pair of selvedge from Brave Star and I can't wait to get em. Great video!!!

Amazing boots! Love everything about them, And yes, I’d be very interested in denim vids, maybe as a bit on the regular boot vids

Those are freaking gorgeous!

Wow, what a cool color. That is a really unique leather color.

How cool. I needed new boat shoes and it was between Oak Street and Rancourt. I was looking hard at Oak Street's navy Chromexcel at $215. I ended up going with Rancourt's Read Boat shoe in natural Chromexcel. First because they'll go with more color options for pants or shorts. But second because they were on sale for $150. Both companies make their shoes in Lewiston, Maine.

Those look a ton better than I would expect! I'd love that in a more durable indigo color.

I would enjoy videos on natural indigo jeans and especially the process of making them.

Please do a video on indigo Jeans!

❤ I would definitely like to see you do an indigo video!

I'd definitely watch a video on indigo denim. You know the boots are really good when he doesn't cut them in half straight away

I would love a raw denim short segment. Great work!

Cool boots. I like the Indigo.

It'd be amazing to see more raw denim goods on this channel--meshes so perfectly with boots anyways and this should be your channel to just chat without the pressure of needing to be as clickable as your main channel.

My Oak Street trench boots are one of my favorites. They do some cool stuff

I'd love to see more general garment related videos from you

I would love to see some videos of raw denim and garment construction from you. I have learned a lot about boot construction and leather from your channel while being supremely entertained at the same time. Clothing would be a great addition :)

I own a pair of the made in the USA Thursdays in Indigo dyed Horween leather and I love the colour. They aren't a rough out though, but I haven't had any socks turn blue at all.

Oak street makes a great boot. I have a pair of service boots from them and the quality of materials & craftsmanship is really very good. I have been looking for a blue pair. This may be it.

I would love more denim and indigo content ; ))

Loved the explanation on how people buy crap that's how I got into boots with the nicks colab

That Indigo is beautiful damn

I love Oak Street boots!

Good looking boots!

Im realy interested how the wear will turn out, so if you dont mind wearing theme please do y follow-up video! And yeah, I do enjoy this type of content!

I have 2 pairs of their boots and really love them! Their last is top notch

Look great with the Carhartts...

i've had these boots for a couple years and they have been a unique piece in my collection. i got them back when they used Japanese natural indigo and dainite soles. i never had the kind of transfer you were showing here in fact, i would say my previous iteration was much less saturated with a lighter starting point. they quickly developed a brown, neppy, speckled appearance. i guess i've always been somewhat hesitant to put together a wardrobe around blue boots.

I love those boots!

Big fan of your channel for a while now. Quick note on you comment on not as much interest in denim as boots…I’m into boots now because of you and the learning I gained from your content. I’m into Denim now after discovering Behzadt and learning from him. ‘Build it and they will come.’

Opie Way used to make a pair of sneakers with selvedge denim. If you ask they might still have enough material for another pair. I own a pair and I love them.

Very cool boots. And I love Japanese denim in addition to heritage boots.

Those are some good looking boots. I’m tempted

That’s a good looking boot. I’d love to see these after a long period of continuous wear.

Currently wearing my indigo boots from OSB. I got mine between 2015-2017. Not completely sure when in there though. My version has all eyelets and dainite soles. I really like them, though they are a unique boot that cant be worn for everything. The roughout leather tips you off to that idea though. I don't wear them hard or in instances they would get scuffed or teacored very much. So after 6-8 years of at least once a week wear they have started to have some of that natural leather peak through in the heels and toes. Getting a bit of a greenish tone. When it started I thought they just looked dirty where the dye was coming off but now that it is pushed through more they are looking much better. I definitely have some minor indigo dye left over on the inside of the boots. I dont however see any dye on the welt areas, though it could have been there at the start. I'm very excited to keep wearing these and seeing the bigger high's and low's of the indigo and natural leather. I want to try some other soles as well, the dainite have been hard wearing and fine for most things. Though I dont like them much in winter as they slip more than expected, and the circles trap ice and drop it around the house when I walk in. Debating between V-Bar and Dr. Sole like these, I also have some cats paw heels I might put on these boots, I want them to go on the "right" boots. I am a big fan of this last as well. I was very worried about them looking too bulbus before I got them, now they just seem great shaped. My outside toes stay straight for longer than normal and this last helps a lot for that. Sizing: I am a 12.5 on my left foot, 12 on the right. I got a 12D and it fits great to me.

would love to hear more ab denim!

They look really nice

As someone who’s dyed leather from the flesh side a lot it has that look. Such a beautiful boot though wow

I got these in their other pattern, the Field Boot. Definitely blued my white socks. They're probably still transferring indigo but I've only been wewring darl socks so I don't know for sure.

Really looking forward to updates

In the 80s I went through several pairs of indigo suede Vans. Blue feet when it rained or you got sweaty were part of the deal.

That’s hilarious how the overdye bleeds. I have seen their releases, seems really cool. Not sure I would but this, I think it would stain all my clothes lol. I definitely want to buy a boot from oakstreet boot makers. Looks like amazing build quality.

I have 3 pairs of their boots and love them!! Quality is good. Leather of course is Horween! What else can you say. I would definitely compare them to Truman of which I have around a dozen pair of! Solid , dependable boots! I have only good things to say about them! Glad to see you finally cover them!! Still waiting on you to cover Truman though!! Great work

I have four pairs of OSB Trench Boots. They are great! They are my go to casual boots. The last really is generous. They say go true to size on the website but I went down a half from Brannock-I have skinny ankles and slender feet, so I am always swimming in boots.

Indigo along with cotton and tobacco was one of the three major cash crops of the pre-Civil War south. There was big demand in Europe for its rich color and absorption capabilities with natural fabrics like wool, cotton, linen, and silk.

These boots look great, im really considering buying thanks for the vid. Also what are the blue pants you wore in the on-feet b role?

PLEASE!!! Review Hender Scheme MIP (maybe the AJ4 silhouette) or any visvim boots!!!

The denim episode would be great!

Interested in the natural indigo videos!

Would like to see what you think of Velasca boots.

I like those blue jeans with the pockets. What are they called and where did you get then? Great video.

i'd love to go through the process of learning about dying and raw denim with this channel. i've had my eyes on naked and famous for jeans for a while and they've got some really crazy indigo dyed jeans that look incredible.

Oak street boots look amazing. I love raw denim for one of the Sam reasons as leather. Watch them get better with age and putting the work in yrself. Satisfying

These look amazing! On a completely separate note, can you do a video on how to deal with heel slip? I recently bought a pair of Grant stone boots and the fit is snug on the sides but I'm experiencing a small degree of heel slip. Wanting to know the different options for fixing that.

I really appreciate these videos, thank you for making them. Sidenote, I've got my Oakstreet Trenchs in Waxy Wild Boar on as I type lol. I went true to size and they are a tiny bit roomy and at an 11D the wide last they use look like duck feet! Still super well built boot, I agree they're up there with Truman and GS on the quality level although the styling is a bit different.

I love my OSB Trench boots (in natural CXL). Would love to see a pair cut in half. I worry the insole is fiberboard

I like how you wore local slc sweater

I haven’t gotten into fancy jeans. I’d watch you cover them.

Will you do a video on the new line of nicks? The game breaker if I recall correctly

Love to see you try a lace to toe Monkey Boot one this or the main channel. Like the Unmarked Archie boot.

Do the raw denim! Interested.

Y’2 Leather from Japan also does an indigo dyed full-grain leather.

I have a pair of Grant Stone Ottawa's in midnight suede. It's a deep navy and the color does not rub off in my jeans or my dress slacks. It's the best navy blue suede boots. You should take a good look at them.

I’ve recently gotten into the raw denim kick. And just quality clothing in general. It might be expensive, but taken care of properly; these things will last.

Beautiful man! Please don’t cut them in half ever!

I personally would love to see content about denim products. It's super easy to find videos online about the fashion of raw selvede denim and all that, but no one talks about the construction quality of the jeans and if they are worth it in the lens of durability.

Fabulous 😊

This year is the second year that I knew about these and hesitated getting them until they were sold out. 😅 Probably the coolest OSB offering next to the USN-1 tribute replica that recently came out.

Also we need fade video down the line with these!

Weston, speaking of sock staining, inasmu h as you have many Red Wing Iron Ranger vids, I don't recall you saying that they also will stain socks just like many PNW logger boots do. I have the 8084 black IR and the socks will not come clean in the wash. What does get them clean is Dawn, hot water, and a scrub brush!

Oh yeah . Those are FIRE bruh.. ❤

Caramel Carhartt's and blue boots - dude you gotta start a band!

Would love to see more denim stuff if you're interested. Also, I'll echo what others have said, don't cut these! The patina will be super unique on these. I'm sure other trench boots are built the same and you could cut those. As a side note too, recently got my second pair of baabuk wool high tops, i love vans and these fit similar and the wool is real nice for comfort, even throughout the summer. Should check them out!

I want a pair of raw denim jeans so bad, they age so beautifully. I'm sure these boots will do the same. I would love to see more of the raw denim side of things.

I think I speak for a lot of your fans when I say that we would absolutely watch a series where you explore other products that are known to develop patinas over time. I mean, we all watch you cut apart sneakers even though most of them are just foam and glue, lol. You might not attract a new audience, but you could introduce your existing audience to a product class that had previously not known about

Never wanted a pair of blue sued shoes like Elvis but these i could get behind

I’d love to see the jeans video

Like my Pro Keds in blue suede. 💙💙💙

I thought they looked in oxblood you just needed another coat or either way great looking boots in black too.

Damn - now I want a pair of those!

Really wanted to try out OSB boots but sadly they dont make any wides...

FYI color transfer in leather ind. is called "crocking"

What are the blue sashiko looking trousers you're wearing in the B Roll?

Yes start covering raw denim. I don't understand the differences and how they should be worn with different types of boots today.

I would love to see you compare jim Green and Westley Richards Courteney boots . Both made in Africa, just different levels of quality/ materials .

It would be interesting to see how it looks and wears if you waxed them

i got a pair around year 2019. i haven’t worn them enough to comment on fading, but they are very comfortable, and look great. i own maybe 8+ of their boots. they have great customer service and all their shoes are repairable, by the maker and very comfy and unique.
