    Nice video. Ive had many boots for many manufacturers... Red Wing, Caterpillar, Justin’s, and Carolina. It was not this boot though. To speak to what you brought up about the scuba liner. I have also never had an issue with Carolina boots or the Scuba Liner. I a union Ironworker in Michigan. Believe when I say, I see every type of weather and element. Rain, sleet, snow, ice, mud water, concrete, rebar, steel, metal spark, chemicals to name a few. What I have found is most guys buy a boot that has to much insulation and there foot is sweating giving the feeling the boot is wet and or cold. Guys need to stop buying what they think looks cool. The need to buy the boot for the particular kind of work they are performing. If you have to right “tools for the job” so to speak, you’ll love your boot. Like a landscaper probably is going to need waterproof, flexibility, and comfort where as an Ironworker needs waterproof, safety toe, heavier duty leather, comfort. Also the type of socks you wear is a huge part of it. Cotton, wool, blended fabrics all handle and transfer warmth differently. I could keep going but don’t want to ramble on. Love your videos. Love your channel.

    I bought my first Carolina boot and this exact model a few months ago and I absolutely love it. It's by far the best boot I've ever had.

    I got a pair of pitstop five months ago and I have to say they were comfortable right out the box and they keep getting more comfortable every day. They run a little big though. I used to have a pair of Timberland pit boss and not even a month after wearing them the toe was destroyed. Every time i kicked something a piece of leather will come out. The leather is to soft. But the carolinas look great after 5 months of abuse. The leather is a lot tougher. And with the carbon fiber toe my toes never get cold as they do with steal toes during cold days. Highly recommended. I also own a pair of Carolina loggers but I like the pitstop better.

    I just bought the 6inch version of these this afternoon. The insoles are very comfortable so hopefully they'll feel great after my 12hr shift tomorrow.

    Very interesting concept for a boot, it’s got a lot of tech, and potential for a wintertime work boot. Goodyear is starting to pop up as boot sole choices, I know you did the Goodyear brand work boots a while back, with good year rubber outsoles. It kinda starts to make sense to have a tire company make a rubber outsole for a boot, they can use tire technologies on the outsole, like they did here. Tires have to get traction on a lot of different surfaces, in a lot of different conditions. The Goodyear outsoles will have to make its way in time to be proven, like Vibram has, and most other current existing quality boot outsoles. I’m primarily a Vibram outsole fan myself my custom made Whites and Nicks both use Vibram, and a lot of other brands have models with Vibram soles on them.

    • @dougs3909
      @dougs3909 4 роки тому

      Vibrams are by far the industry standard, much like Marshall guitar amps, or *gasp* Goodyear rubber. I'm interested to see how this sole performs, though I live in a warmer climate and really have no need to add this boot to my rotation. Perhaps BFG should get into the outsole game!

    • @mad0uche
      @mad0uche 4 роки тому

      @@dougs3909 Vibram is by far the industry standard, they are also the industry standard on the shortest lifespan of soles. If you didn't have a rotation - most of us do, you would burn through any vibram sole, it's like driving in new york on slick tires you don't even have to do anything crazy they just wear down super fast. I can't tell you how many bad redwing reviews I have read JUST because of the vibram sole wearing down too fast, and I agree with them because it happened to me. I however unlike a lot of those stupid people, don't except a sole to last forever and I love how good vibram soles are in practical use.

    My carolina CA8028 look like a much worse version of this boot, I fear they are both super heavy though. I enjoy and love my Carolina boots still even though the weight, but I find my rotation right now mostly thorogood 814-4550, Red Wing 4217, and Red Wing burnsides. I think these Carolina boots are very specific to certain situations like you mentioned in the video, the average person really doesn't need beefy carolina boots. I can't say anything bad about carolina however, everything is on point like you mentioned in the logger video. From insole to eyelets, to the quality of leather and laces, carolina does everything right.

    It comes with an insole which is already a step up over my Carolina loggers which did not.

    When the work surface gets slick you can definitely see who grew up playing hockey (Chicago for me) and those that haven't. Lol

    I was gifted a pair of Carolina logger style boots in a size 9. My boot size is 9 but I found these to be too small. Do Carolina boots run smaller than usual?
