WTF?! Alfa Western Wear Boots REVIEW 

Me too I work in mine and they don’t care bout no pissy stalls

I love mine as well they might have bought a bad pair

Make may have been pissed off that day lol mine have all been good but I go to the store I live in mcallen they have store here

There now $79

Look at their Google reviews. 70% have size issues.

@@kulwickmore4919 then size up or down based on the reviews duhhhh

This was 2 years ago an boots are still in good condition

Thanks for your opinion! Clearance or not, this company is awful. The fact that these boots are even for sale is embarrassing for them. I hold nothing against anyone who wants to purchase boots from Alfa, that's their business and this video can be factored into that decision however they please.

@@JeremiahCraig I get it, but in order to keep your integrity of review, shouldn’t the playing field be level? That’s what I saying. I’m not here to argue if the company or product is good or not. The comparisons should be of a similar product so one can judge for themselves. (That’s why reviewers disclose at beginning if they are funded or not)

In order to produce as many videos as I do, I have to cut costs when I can. I bought these boots with my own money for the purposes of this video so even though Alfa is cheap to begin with clearance was necessary. Still, clearance boots doesn't inherently mean that they are bad, it means that they aren't selling well and the company needs to make room for other models that will sell so it is a fine way to judge. Since I am self funded most times I have to take advantage of clearance or buy used. Last year, I made what basically comes out to a minimum wage yearly salary doing this channel full time. If you still feel cutting my costs is still unfair, you can find links to purchase merch from my store in the video descriptions to support my channel so I can get the newest models before they get their clearance price tags. I can also say with confidence this video didn't hurt my integrity at all. I feel it strengthens it because I called out a crappy company in a buyer beware review. I'm very proud of this video and anyone who wants to still purchase from Alfa can do so at their own risk and know that there are better boots out in the world. Thanks for watching and I hope to see your comments on other videos of mine featuring better boots in the future!

@@JeremiahCraig Thanks for the explanation. I’m a Double H and R Watson fan, so no offense taken here.

@@JeremiahCraig ive had 2 pairs already over 2 years 1 pair is a dress boot and the other is a work boot. They have both held up great , my work boot goes through alot im in the oil and gas industry. Fixing to order a couple more pairs now!

If they send them in the size you order, I suppose it would be a good deal. I exchanged 2 pairs after my initial purchase and still don’t have boots that fit. I ordered 13EE they sent 13 and then told me that 13 & 13EE were they same! Then told me to get them stretched locally. Seriously don’t buy thier boots online, the risk is high.

I own two pairs and they don't compare to my Ariats or even some old Cabelas I have. With the second pair I purchased, the insole came out with the first wear. Spend extra and get good boots. If you're a true cowboy and spend anytime around agriculture, do yourself a favor and save these for neon cowboys.

@@SkinnyWaterVibes these are dressy boots not work boots ,and they are half the price of other brands. Thats the point Boot Queen!

How many did you read? This is not true at all

@@JeremiahCraigliterally all of them lol😂

Did you watch the video or just the beginning? I don't care about the box. They are objectively bad

😂🤣😂 💯% Facts

@@JeremiahCraig That dude clearly did not watch the video lol

Dont get me when I say this because I like the channel but with that said this video come off as snobby and elitist and not a real review and make me question to stay subscribed. Because its a review but nothing was done to review them. Honestly the ones he picked probably was picked because that seem like the worse one and those is representative of that brand but not the best candidate. If you going to condemn the brand actually do a testing. Though there was some fair points, nothing was done to warrant a review. Whether good or bad review both should have some type of testing.

I like doing that too haha! Expect more of that in the future! Thanks for watching 👍

That's not necessarily true. Defective is not the same as clearance. Boot companies and stores often put products on clearance to make room for new stock. There is no reason any company should be selling a boot with obvious issues like this (clearance or not) without stating it's a defect.

Glad you like them! Thanks for watching 👍

Alfa doesn’t sell real exotics they’re all print but they don’t put that in their description. You’ll never get real exotic leather boots for $70 not here or in MX

Can you please tell me if the size runs large or is the real size

Good luck getting the size you want

I agree

I had Justin’s as daily wear for over 10 years

True that. Getting boots second hand is a great way to go too

Boots are made the same. They just build them around different sizes. Are all their boots bad? Probably not but we had this one chance with them and they are some of the worst boots we've seen. We can only go off of what they deliver.

@@JeremiahCraig you can give your opinion on what you have. Just like me. That's about it. But to say that all of them are the same its not true. They are made in different factories in mexico..

I've looked at a lot of boots on this channel and I can tell the brands who care. This is not one of them

Jeremiah Craig those boots are not even Alfa brand you boomer😆 the actual Alfa brand has the alfa logo on the box, and you can tell you that you bought the cheapest boots on their website😆 if you are gonna make a review you better order a pair of 79.99, I bought my boot from Alfa and I wear them daily and to be honest they are very comfortable.

@@jesustorres5354 gotta agree with you, Alfa boots are nice and resilient.. wonder if this channel is getting paid to downgrade these nice cowboy boots

That's not always the case. Alfa is misleading and a scammy business. Believe what you want but if you get boots from them, they will be crap. Here's my receipt since you don't believe me jeremiahcraig.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Screen-Shot-2020-07-17-at-2.46.49-PM.png

@@JeremiahCraig that receipt just proves you bought the boots through alfa, it doesn't have a brand name. if you read my comment I stated that I don't believe those boots are alfa brand, and that receipt doesn't say they are alfa boots, just that you bought them through their store. I found these boots on their site and there are no markings, nor did I see any on the video. so how can you accurately review these as alfa brand boots if you can't verify they were actually produced by alfa? the boots you reviewed are crap no doubt but many shoe companies sell products of varying quality. still not convinced this is an alfa boot, but even if it was, why would you choose a misprint clearance boot to review instead of a more expensive made to order boots they offer?

It verifies there is no brand which would lead the consumer to the boots being in fact, Alfa brand since they were bought on the Alfa website. Make whatever excuses you want for yourself, as far as I'm concerned these are Alfa boots and all Alfa boots are junk

It's less about where the toes are located in the boot and more about where the ball of the foot is. Custom boot maker, Paul Krause, once said "If it doesn't fit in the ball, it doesn't fit at all." You want the boot to be snug at the ball of your foot and at the instep at your foot. Your toes should have no pressure or squeezing on them. I talk a little bit more about fit in this video. I already have it sync'd up at the time I discuss it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ESugSc6KROY.html Good luck!

Thanks

Because they make the comparison. They set the standard not me 👍 thanks for watching!

Gotta respect it man! Way to go!

Cool. I'll look into it and see what I can do! Thanks!

If you watched this video you'd realize that anyone wearing these boots for anything on the ranch or otherwise would be physically injured after an hour. They're crap. Anyone can see that

@@JeremiahCraig how can you come to that conclusion without actually wearing them and working in them?

I like the look!

We are usually very objective. This is by far the worst review we've ever given a pair of boots for good reason. It will cause injury and the business lies outright. Every industry has a company like Alfa. This is a company to stay away from 100%. Not trying to ruin anyone's livelihood, only protect consumers from con artists.

There's doctors out there that don't care about their patients. Should we not call them out? Ankle and knee problems are no joke.

To each their own! I look at boots regularly and I can say with confidence they are far less quality than almost everything else I've looked at on my channel. The boots in the video speak for themselves

My point exactly

I do know Sendra! Haven't got the chance to try them yet. Can't wait til I do!

how long did they take to arrive?

Did you buy them I was wanting the same pair

No I haven’t but they look amazing tho just wanna know about the quality first you know I haven’t see anyone doing a review on them

NEW ONES!? Nice!!

@@JeremiahCraig 😁👍🏼

They just opened a boot barn in my area as well and i was very excited, but they had a fairly limited brand selection. They had Durangos, Cody James (store brand?), Dan Post, Laredo, Ariat and 2 HH styles (not the Dylan) lol. Have had mixed results with Laredo and Dan Post, although Ariat seems to be a good budget brand. I would check out what HH boots they have and perhaps that will be the best for ya.

Hey Jim! They are made in Mexico!

It's the WORST!

I have two pair. Super light and comfortable. The toe wore through to the alloy pretty quick, about 4 months, but I was using them for general construction and didn't use tough toe or shoe goo.

She's nice like that

It is a real pity that you are having this experience, man. I take mine dancing and I clean/shine them once a week. They still look brand new. I think that you just need to take care of them. That’s all. 😊

What kind of boot are you looking for?

@@JeremiahCraig western square toes

@@JeremiahCraig smooth Ostrich.

Nope! Big brands will use the same designs they just use different sizes so often times there is no way for anyone to know the difference between boots marketed towards women and those marketed towards men

Nice! Just what I thought. But I've seen some nice boots that state "Women" but can't see any real difference other than sizing so I kept wondering if built was different or something like that.

I showed the exact webpage from Alfa where we bought the boots in the video. Did you miss that? Alfa doesn't have branded boxes. The cheap move is this brand misleading consumers. Be upset at me if you want but it won't change anything

I personally have some Alfa boots. Says in the box Alfa & also in the boots. Please review something that is made by them.

I did Gabriel. You not trusting that changes nothing. Have a good one

They are Alfa boots and they are bad. Here's my receipt... jeremiahcraig.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Screen-Shot-2020-07-17-at-2.46.49-PM.png

Jeremiah Craig Those are boots from Alfa but, they are not Alfa brand. Try to buy the Alfa brand and you will be more than satisfied with the quality. I personally have one pair and I wear them every day and indeed they are 100% cowhide leather.

Haha did you see the boots?

@@JeremiahCraig yes I see the boots.Thats why the boots are cheap.Ive been wearing top boots all my life.I rode bulls roped calves and steers.And still I'm a Rancher.Those top boot company's have problems also.I work with leather also.The point is.U can find a problem with anyone's boot.Just like ppl.Maybe one of these days they will get together down in Laredo.We all have to start somewhere.But that family that can't afford that top boot.Can at least be proud to have a pair.Long live Cowboys

@@grantray6119you missed the point. A person can buy preloved boots, from better brands, at a similar or even better price.

Not yet. I can't find any around me

I’ve wore boots for fifty years. ABs, are by far that best boots I’ve ever had, for comfort and style. Hope you get a chance to wear a pair. It will change your life for the better!

I agree. It's disappointing to me that people are steered away from boots because of one bad experience.

Very true

Thanks for watching 👍

Definitely not haha. I eat a hearty of breakfast of cherri-no's every day. It makes no difference to me. If you watch the video they are objectively bad, regardless of opinion.

@@JeremiahCraig they look cheap, I believe those are garbage boots, but like others pointed out, are they actually Alfa brand boots? Or just some generic bs they sold you? I don't own any alfa and never even seen a pair in person, so i don't have an opinion....but you do come off as biased. I'm genuinely interested in the quality since so many people say good things.

😂😂😂 it's always fun to make videos with Brynna

They are made in Mexico

@@JeremiahCraig mmmm what from Mexico.

I'm from Mexico 🇲🇽 and I think it's a little bit hard your review. Whit that I went to USA I bought a pair of nacona boots some expensive and can tell you is something similar.

@@saulrabiela4862 I'm not saying that boots made in Mexico are all bad I'm saying that Alfa boots are bad. They come nowhere close to a US made Nocona. If you watched the video, you can see the Alfa boots speak for themselves. Too many issues

@@JeremiahCraig And even the Mexican made Noconas are nice.

100% leather in the boot industry means all leather except the shank, stitching, heel cap, pegs and nails all of which is a small percentage of the boot. These had foam in them on the insole which is all that's necessary for the 100% leather statement to be 100% untrue

What brand of boots are they then? It doesn't say but they are purchased on Alfas site therefore they are Alfa boots... These are junk boots. Plain and simple. We were more than fair

@@JeremiahCraig just look at your order when purchased it should tell you the brand name, like stated before Alfa does have their own brand and they all say it on the bottom of the boot. They carry different brands of boots and those are not Alfa brand. Just because you bought them there that doesnt make them Alfa boots. They are a diffefent brand purchased at the Alfa website. Like stated before also it would be fair to review the actual Alfa brand if you are going to be claiming it on the title and in the whole video. If those are crap then they are crap but no Alfa

Alfa is the worst company you could buy boots from. You think you're the first person make this comment? There is no brand name. Alfa Boots are con artists and the worst western wear company you could buy from. I have been more than fair to them and their owner but his disrespect and snatchy business practices forced me to ban him from my FB group. Alfa boots and the boots they sell are a joke. Worst on the maket

@@JeremiahCraig whatever you say dude, i could care less about the owner. All i wanted was to watch an actual fair review of some Alfa boots, the actual name brand Alfa boots not some no name boots you bought from their website 😂 thats like saying everything at walmart sucks because you didnt like a pair of jeans you bought there. 🤣 not all boots sold at a store are the same, stores usually buy from different providers you should know that if you buy boots. Like stated before those are not Alfa boots thats all i was actually looking for, an Alfa boots review, dont get ur panties in a bunch i didnt ask your story with the owner of the place just wanted an actual Alfa boots review. I never write on any youtube video but this review was just crap just like the boots you did a review on and i had to say it. 🤷‍♂️ dont start a review talking crap about something when you havent even tested it yet. In a review you have to be neutral till the end, then you can talk your talk

They are the same. That's what I'm saying. Buy what you want but your money will go further on eBay buying a slightly used traditional pair of boots for the same or less money than crappy Alfa boots. If you don't believe me, ask my group on FB for their opinion. jeremiahcraig.com/bootgroup. They won't lie for me ✌️

I recently made a video about vegan boots which use PU leather. It's a different smell and feeling altogether. This boot is leather but a very low quality leather for sure.

They are made in mexico not China

Us too

This video is trash.. the boots are good

Thanks buddy!

No it's not

Exactly my opinion, me and my friends have recently bought several boots from Alfa in Laredo Texas and they are beautiful boots.. Mexican boots are the best hands down.
