Haha I’ll do a separate video in the future talking about the fit!

I enjoy the ten inch height, I think it makes them feel very substantial. If the size were to shrink I think I’d want a slightly smaller heel to compensate. I actually have the opposite impulse where I find it easier to wear black boots so these are perfect for me. Now I just need a pair of brown boots😂

Yeah I think they are going to be slow faders!

Haha no way!

Thanks I hope I turns out well

A vintage buckle and a herman oak veg tan blank for the belt

Yeah that’s fair, to each their own. If you don’t care about the special details it isn’t worth spending the extra money for sure.

Awesome I hope you enjoy!

Dang I would have love to get my hands on that!

@@calebgascaI have one, what is your size?

Yeah these seem to be a difficult fit if you are a wider foot

@@calebgasca it has widened with wear so it fits mostly now but when i need a resole i might pay the extra to get it rebuilt a size wider. they are definitely worth that investment to me.

@@fistofice you could also look at having it rebuilt on their Munson last which I might do

@@calebgasca I do like the idea of having a munson lasted boot but I do like the look of the 4911 on the Drifter. if you do get a munson based boot id like to see how it works out as far as fit.

@@fistofice yeah if that happens I’ll make a video on it for sure. I’m trying not to buy anything big for the rest of the year so it likely won’t be very soon. But keep an eye out just in case!😂

10.5 EEE

Bro what the heck I had no clue, that would be nice to know in the future😂

@@calebgasca Yeah I guess they don’t push it because it’s not as aesthetically pleasing as the other lasts but I just got a pair and they are amazing.

@@righturnclyde thanks for letting me know! I’ll have to check them out in the future 100% Anatomical lasts are only getting more popular based on what I can tell. Especially as the barefoot movement continues I think people will have less tolerance for messing up their feet for fashion

I don’t think I could ever wear boat shoes 🤮 Haha, but in all seriousness I think that’s a fair thought. Personally I don’t really care I love wearing a pearl snap with a cowboy hat and my packer boots. Makes me feel like a cool guy in a movie.

Yeah at this point I’m well over it, I’ve learned my lesson and the goal is to not repeat the same mistake!

I’m pretty sure it’s more narrow, at least that’s now Weston made it seem when explaining the design

@@calebgasca its not! it curves more

Those are a little too hardcore for me personally but they are pretty cool

Idk I can’t see what you look like😂 I’d measure your best fitting tshirt and buy the same shoulder size

Yeah that Thurman last seems like it solves the problems that a lot of guys have with the pnw lasts. If they were anatomical it wouldn’t be necessary to get so wide of a size often times I think. That first pair is great too, honestly I wish I had bought them at the time. I’ve thought about trying my best to recreate them but using the Thurman last at nicks. I wish that had a similar color red leather.

Yeah, I have no real use for the pocket kit whatsoever.

Mine came quick, too, but then they wouldn't prioritize any rebuilds or whatever.

Allen Edmonds shoe trees fit unbelievably well when my other usual ones wouldn't go down the narrow toes at all. Happy accident there, mostly. I guess if you WANT the toe to collapse, this will be useless info.

Nick's is a little less expensive for packer boots and they have tan color that I might like to get someday, but the stock model the quick ship or something is maybe the safer bet when curious about sizing issues, etc. Not sure if their wait times are better overall, but maybe. I like brown more than black, tho, so...

The square-toe cowboy boots might be more comfortable for all day work, but they are not stylish at all. I can't seem to find many that I like the look lately, and I don't like wearing them much in hot weather, either. These maybe people would also find a bit warm BUT at least they could be worn with shorts and not look as dorky as taller riding boots AND as much as I don't like walking in riding boots, walking in these is a smidge more natural or something. But they DO bite in that foreleg pinch area.

Umm I don’t remember but not egregiously long

Yes! I totally agree, even if I bought a pair of boots with a toe cap, I would still want them to be unstructured. With the exception of boots like the Viberg 310s and the kreosote boots which are all intended to have large chiseled structured toes, I think it’s almost always better to have unstructured because it’s more natural and ages much better.

Anything for you

Thanks jitliang

Thanks! Will do!

Haha, I’m glad you enjoyed!

Thank you! I’m glad you think so!

I think it’s the 9 oz t shirt

Yea I tried this again recently with the kettle method instead and it was much better

By the time I noticed the flaw they were already worn

The shel cordovan model is much more expensive

If I had kept these I wouldn’t have re-dyed them I personally really like when the brown undertones show through

I saw that recently, I am for sure interested in trying them out!

Alden are made in USA represent high cost on labor for sure in another country you can have cheap labor and also better leather quality no doubt about it

Yeah it’s just unfortunate that quality per Dollar Alden still has a hard time competing with other American boot company’s as well

Different from what? Other boots or the individual panels?

Wrangler 13mwz

What is?

@@calebgasca your outfit, dude. It’s absolutely ridiculous. Kinda trying too hard.

@@bloatedsodium7301 what about it is trying too hard? Boots jeans and a shirt with a hat is pretty lowkey

I had my first pair hemmed by a local tailor no problem. A professional tailor though not a dry cleaner type tailor. It wasn’t a chain stitch hem but it worked

Pretty sure I explain all the fits and colors which is all there is to say

36 100%

@@calebgasca Thank you.

You could do that, I haven’t machine washed them so I can’t give any insight as far as that goes

@calebgasca Thanks for getting back to me! I dont suppose that throwing it in the washer will damage the denim in any way, right? Did the inseam come right for you out of the package? Or have you got them hemmed?

@@MrMrFUZZYEYEBROWS for me the hem was perfect so I haven’t needed to get any work done on them. The dye does wash out over time so I’ve preferred not to wash them in the machine

You can special order any of their catalogue from standard and strange. Or you can buy what they stock

I’ve been thinking about a deck jacket but I’ve heard they tend to be cut pretty long. Plus there’s not much need for a jacket that warm in SoCal

I do have a couple larger belt buckles but I go back and forth

Wow that’s crazy, I don’t think I’d be willing to pay that much for them personally.

@@calebgasca Thank you!

Real McCoys and black sign do buy with some much more expensive products. Buzz rickson also does with a focus on militaria in a more middle of the road price range

I have to say that honestly among the other impractical items I wear during the summer I can’t notice a huge difference between black boots and lighter colored boots. Throughout most of the summer I’m wearing long sleeves pants and boots anyways. When I need freedom from the hot sun I usually end up just breaking down and wearing shorts and sandals to give my nervous system a break from the heat.

Thanks!

Hope you enjoy it!

Thank you! It’s much better for my lifestyle as well

I agree that the issues are so bad to inhibit the enjoyment of the boots. Although I’d at least prefer them to be symmetrical. If they both had toe stiffeners that were a bit too tall then at least when I looked down at my feet, each one would look the same. The asymmetry is probably the part that bothers me, the most to be honest.
