LL Bean Boot Review - Everyone makes fun of pumpkin spice lattes until you try them and LL Bean Boots are the same way. They are mostly known for being a fashionable winter/fall boots but that's far from what they were designed for. The LL Bean "Bean boot" was originally designed as a hunting boot after LL Bean himself got sick of coming home from hunting trips with wet socks. So he asked a local cobbler to combine a rubber boot with a leather boot and BOOM the bean boots were born.

Can you cut up some rick Owens geobaskets they're not necessarily boots but I would like to see how they're constructed for the price
Its winter now and im wearing a pair of Muck Arctic Outpost for the first time, incredibly comfortable, waterpoofes, and warm! They are made by "The Original Muck Boot Company", and would love to know how these bad boys are constructed and whats inside them, I cant afford to kill these boots check myself!
Can you do a series on boots for wide feet people? I'm one of them and its a nightmare to find boots or techniques to stretch out a boot for wide feed.
I have the solid brown ones. I love them. Perfect boot! I’m stoked that they can be resoled!
Thanks for your review! We're proud to have been making Bean Boots here in Maine for the last 108 years! ^rz
Nice of you to comment!
Maybe you can add a lining to the basic version.
Love Bean. Support American ingenuity!
@@TheLarz1013 I do. Unfortunately they started having things produced in China (not Bean Boots yet) and are still charging Made In USA prices.
Don't ever stop making them here . It will be a mistake
I build fences mow the lawn and rake leaves in my bean boots. It's accurate you call them pumpkin spice because all the neighborhood moms want to drink me up.
Bruh
vile 😂😂😂
C Miller In your fevered imagination, young man.
LOL
Love it
Former Bean Boot factory worker, back again!
Your knowledge of industrial processes paid off here. Indeed, that knit liner is a non-chemical mold release, that has the bonus of adding structural integrity to the rubber.
You're also quite correct on the sizing: There aren't different bottom molds for lined and non-lined boots. And as anyone who's used photoshop knows, adding a uniform thickness liner to the inside of the boot doesn't result in the same shape, just smaller. It results in a slightly different interior shape, meaning a different fit. The unlined boots are made with the assumption of very thick socks, and if you wear thin socks, you may find the shaft much less supportive. I actually find mine amazing for hiking, worn with the correct sock ecosystem, a very old fashioned approach most consumers won't be aware of, or even have on hand.
A word on the rubber: Soft as that rubber is, the Bean Boot rubber you have there is the harder version, meant for city streets and sidewalks. My preferred version is the softer and more flexible Maine Hunting Shoe, meant for feeling the ground while stalking. The heel and shank mean rocks won't poke your arch (Maine is very rocky), but I find the softer rubber MUCH more comfortable on my toes, and the leather tends to be a little nicer on those, also. Everything I said about a more old-fashioned approach to a sock ecosystem applies to those.
Finally, if you do need waterproof, they make a gore tex version. Watching the gore tex booties get sewn up in the factory is adorable. Otherwise, yes, unless you snowseal the crap out of the stitching, they will eventually leak in standing water. But they do great in puddles and streams.
Wish I had you next to me when I was in Freeport last year picking out the hunting boot :)
@@AvoidingChores Did you end up digging the one you got?
@@matthewsbernier nah, I was too rushed last time, but gained some valuable knowledge so either next time I get down I’ll grab a pair :)
Can you share more specifics re: socks?
I work there too and you bring good accurate info. Currently working in Lewiston where the molds for the rubber bottoms are.
In Maine, it's either muddy or snowy 90% of the year. It's hard to find somebody without these. They're versatile and reliable, and like all the things Maine people love, a little stuck in the past.
Sometimes being a little stuck in the past isn’t a bad thing.
Yup, went to school in Maine, there are about 4 good months of the year out of the six seasons - the extra two seasons are mud season & when the ground is frozen before snow....
Can you elaborate on what you mean by people from Maine liking things from the past? I've never been to Maine, but it sounds like somewhere I'd like to visit based on what you said
here in Buffalo our winters are harsh or wet most of the time, most people here own a pair as well, including me!
Mainer here, can confirm. I know it's kind of the thing to drag on Bean boots a little lately because of all the hipsters wearing them, but these are the boots of my childhood- my mom and dad each had a pair they wore for years and years, and I got my own as soon as my feet stopped growing. I live in the UK now, and they're great for going on walks in the country after it's been raining (which is always, in these parts).
Literally never heard of these being an "instagram boot". Growing up in New England, they're just what everybody wears from November-February. I love mine
Amen to that.
Also from New England. These are certainly in the starter pack for women along with North Face fleece's.
Only till February? That’s not even mud season yet. Late April to early may is when you can switch back to shoes.
@@paladin252 I think it might depend on where you live in New England. Here in MA I usually only need to wear mine til late February.
Nah only yuppies and their kids wear them in the Northeast. They aren't good boots besides the marketing.
Ernest Hemingway used to wear them. They actually still have his original pair of LL Bean duck boots.
He used them as what they were originally made for which was hunting I would presume. Here in New England it’s what girls where to school when it’s cold and slushy out
@@matthewyates6877 I still wear mine in the woods. Guess I'm the minority nowadays tho.
@@matthewyates6877 I hunt but also wear my hunting boots when there's snow. They're good for both purposes.
@J B because his boots became white-girl trendy.
@J B Epstein didn't kill himself
You know who should sponsor you? Some good knife company. Like "look, our knives can cut boots in half!" lol
I worked for a company that would advertise saw blades by cutting things like cars or, at one time, a plane in half.
I’d love to see Benchmade sponsor a video!
@@wntrwhte I sawed this boat in half!
I love the fact you can get them re-soled for $50. Basically means after 1 re-sole, you've got a new, good set of boots, that cost the same as an average pair. Plus I think they look great. Win, win.
L.L Bean also used to have a lifetime replacement policy for the Bean boot. Was a great policy, but I think many people took advantage. For example, a friend of mine returned a 25-year-old pair and did get a brand new pair for free. They no longer do that but the next best thing is an affordable re-sole of the boot.
@@erikc3057 isn't that the purpose of life policy?
@@TheNecromancer077 Hey, im not here to justify L.L Bean's policies or policy changes. Just replying with what I know. If you don't like the fact that L.L.Bean changed their policy, take it up with them. Or dont shop there. Good day.
@@erikc3057 idk why but this was really funny for me. Thanks
Better than new, since the leather is broken in and formed to your foot
Don't worry about what the hipsters are wearing today. In a year from now, they will have moved on to something else trendy. These are a timeless design.
Right! Wear what works.
Hipsters have been buying these for a long time, they aren’t going to stop buying them.
They're wearing these.
WGAF what the fashionistas and hipsters wear. They wear jeans too. These are great boots for sh*t weather.
It's not hipsters that wear but college kids and the parents in New England.
LL Bean is a brand that I can't help but respect. They have not tried to up their prices while lowering their quality as their products became something they could have easily done that with. My grandpa will literally only wear LL Bean to this day
I have worn LLBean boots since 1971...50 years this coming Fall. Periodically, like any good outdoor boot you use waterproofing on the seems, and oil the leather tops. They last and last. 2 resoles on my 1971 boots, still have them to this day, as well as 3 more different pairs of LLBean boots. They are fantastic for what they are and do!
I live about a half hour from the flagship store, they have a bunch of old production boots sitting around the store in little glass display cases along with some other antique hunting gear. Really cool store, even has a pond in it!
their flagship store is awesome, its like a whole town. it had been open 24/7 365 days a year since 1951, until corona virus happened..
@@lonespartan31289 oh it’s awesome, damn store has its own zip code because it’s so damn big🤣
@@pgids5886 i take a drive up every year on my birthday, go to Augusta house of pancakes for breakfast and stop at LL Bean haha.
@@lonespartan31289 IRC, they don't even have locks on the doors....
7th generation Masshole here - everyone in my family has these boots! When worn with warm thick socks, they’re perfect for day to day activities in New England in the winter. They’re NOT for hiking or long walks through extremely high snow though.
I would love to see a vintage pair (maybe an old worn out pair) cut in half to see the changes over time. It rare a boot has this history where this comparison is possible.
Yes! Find a donor!
I had a pair back in the 70s or 80s that had no steel shank. Luckily, they stopped that nonsense but looks like synthetic now, which is fine. Just bought some new 6” ones and can’t wait for the uppers to look lived in.
The proper wear to wear the boots is with a thicker wool sock. That helps with perspiration issues, you can also layer with a thin synthetic inner sock and wool outers. In addition, for the uninsulated edition, LL Bean offers a shearling insole you can slip into the boot which adds comfort and insulation to the bottom of the sole.
I just returned my wife’s L.L. Bean Boots because the flesh-out heel cover came unglued and started moving around in there. I’ll add their customer service and guarantee are excellent.
Their customer service is amazing. I don't know if it's still the case, but you used to be able to return ANY product at any time if you were ever unhappy with it. This led to teenagers & college students scouring yard sales for old, high-value LL Bean stuff (inflatable boats were a favorite) and returning them for a new version, then selling the new version for some pocket money...
Oh they have the best customer service I've ever experienced.
@@ckm-mkc I feel like it's a year now, but if it's not capped, I'm returning that orange fisherman cable knit that was always too big
@@BeckBeckGo it's a year now, but if you have proof of purchase of something bought before they changed the policy, you still have the lifetime :)
My dad’s family is from Maine and I’ve been waiting on this lol. He still has a pair of them from like 40 years ago, and still uses them to shovel snow in
🥾🥾
I grew up and still live in LL Bean. It's not just their clothing, their equipment is amazing. And their customer service and returns policy are absolutely wonderful.
i actually wear a pair that my grandma wore-she resoled them like 3 times, i started wearing them in high school! i wore them through college (at penn state) aaaaand i’m still wearing them! i know some friends that have their boots that have been handed down from their great great grandparents to great grandparents to grandparents to their parents and now to them! the only reason why i would buy a new pair is if i had kids and wanted to have some for them -or if i wanted to get a nice pair of the furry lined ones.
Peace! Wow 😯 “the sistahood of the traveling pair of Boots!” Nice 👍 Angela..
I had no idea they are actually that good. Now I’m interested in a pair. Seems like a great boot for walking along riverbanks or in snow with mud.
My mom wears these all winter for yard work and any snow-trompy things - we actually shared them for my teenage years, where I would take them for outside chores or any kind of wading-based activity and then she'd take them for her chores and so on. Hers have been going strong for I think 40+ years at this point, so it's pretty hard to argue with that!
Growing up in Massachusetts I’ve always had a pair of them. I even now I have a pair in my closet and I don’t even wear them. I wear redwing work boots 6/7 days a week 365 days. My uncle has a 45/50yr old pair of bean boots that he still wears.
A few years ago I was in Maine and did their factory tour. If you’re ever in the area I suggest you go. I’ve been wearing their duck boots for the last 30+ years. Thanks again for another great video.
Bought my Bean boots when I started college in Orono 34 years ago. Wear them through all seasons. Resoled after 30 years. As good as the day I bought them. Might get buried in 'em.
Had a slightly higher pair for over 35 years. Walked for miles in the snow. Fine around ranch/farm in mucky weather. Never really thought of them other than as utilitarian. Great investment that will likely outlast me.
Here in Northern New England, they're not as 'instagram' and basically everyone has a pair. Incredibly versatile. I wear mine all winter long, practically every day! (But yes, they can get smelly)
They might be “basic” but mine from 7 years ago still look and function like brand new. You cannot find a better boot for ~$200 that will handle rain and snow as well as these do, while still maintaining some semblance of style.
I keep mine in my car year around, they’re the perfect pair of shoes to throw on when the weather gets nasty... way better than rain boots, and significantly better looking than my goretex hiking boots.
I grew up in Maine and have had a ton of these boots over the years and I like them. The biggest issue was mentioned in the video and thats sizing between styles; insulated and non insulated. I have hot feet so the last pair I had was not insulated (PSL's with no liners.) because of that I wear a 9 instead of a 10.5. Also they dont fit well. I recommend the hunting boot with thinsulate (The ones without the removable liners.) those should fit normally and be reasonably comfortable. These boots have a use timer of about 2 years before the heals goes flat and the sole is hard. So its easy to know when to re-sole them.
I've had mine for nearly 20 years. I moved away from the slushy northeast a few years ago but they were my go-to winter boots for a LONG time. Great boot from a great company.
The leather uppers will look less pumpkin spice once they've been lived in.
That one time when I actually want to buy the featured boot, there's isn't a Rose Anvil discount. ;)
They get discounted regularly by L.L. Bean.
I had a pair with the felt liners when I lived in Vermont. Kept toes toasty and dry at forty below when working and hiking outside. Do wear wool socks for best results.
I’m on my second pair. As of 6-8 years ago, I didn’t realize they could be sent for a resole, or I might still be on my first pair. I exclusively use them for rainy conditions here in Texas, which helps to extend the life and overall condition of my other boots and shoes. I love them!
I’ve loved bean boots for the past 10 years or so. They’re my go to rainy day shoe choice. They do get a little sweaty by the end of the day, especially if you’re actually working in them. But they’ve been darn near indestructible. Love them.
Great Boot , We grew up wearing LL Bean boots and shamie shirts.
I’ve been using these as a work boot and they are great, very comfortable and durable. As long as you take care of the leather they still look new.
I live in Maine (10 minutes from the flagship store of LLBean) and practically everybody and their mother have these boots! They are great for all year round, wearable in summer and winter (not to mention mudseason lol)
Have had mine for over 30 years. Thin sock when warm, thick wool when cold. Can’t beat them. Great for snow, hunting, or just trekking through the woods.
I actually do yard work in mine as well, year round. They make a great fishing boot as well. Bought them second hand over 10 years ago and they still look the same. Fantastic quality.
For the wear you get out of these, they're a great value. I have 3 pair of different styles, 2 of which are 10 years old. The slip on version is my favorite.
I've always wondered about the insole in this boot. I don't know why but, it is so satisfying to watch and hear a boot get cut in half. Thanks!
Also, My dad had a pair of LL bean main hunters when I was growing up that were about 16 inches tall. He loved them. The aren't for every day wearing or hunting use. He used them when the weather in Mississippi called for it. I think he still has them.
I've had my boots since 1982.
I got a set of these for when I worked at a summer camp. The sight was in a marsh that had you walk through a quagmire that never ever dried out. The mud was always trying to destroy my boots. I got tired of cleaning the leather boots and grabbed these. The boots are practically maintenance free! Love ‘em. Will be getting mine resoled
I’ve used these exact boots for bowhunting for over 20 years. Excellent boot, doesn’t cake up with mud, and has much less drag resistance when walking through grass/brush compared to other more bulky boots with aggressive treads.
"Less drag resistance".. you mean slippery?
I am always find myself using these boots for so many different things. Hunting in winter and fall, yard work, rain, snow muddy etc. I have had mine about 5 years. I have the thinsulate in mine. Very comfortable. They do hold moisture so when I am finished wearing them I pull out the liner inside out and let them dry. Otherwise they will smell like hockey epuipment
I watch the Walmart boots so I’m here for the real deal.
I have had the same pair of LL Bean Duck boots for at least 10 years and they are still in pretty much perfect condition.
Have owned a pair for about 5 years now. My everydays in fall/winter. Also, their classic anorak jacket is my favorite jacket. Loose enough to bundle up with and the pros of a hoodie and rain jacket.
Good review. LL Bean manufactures two types of these boots: Maine Hunting Shoe and Bean Boots. The Maine Hunting Shoe is the original style and has less support for walking on hard surfaces, but is preferred by those who wish to walk in woods, such as hunters. Bean Boots are made for walking on firm surfaces such as pavement and as you note, has a firm arch support. I’ve owned several pairs for almost 30 years, and can attest that LLBean offers resole service which can be described as nothing short of superb. When boots are returned for resole, they attempt to sew into the original stitch holes to avoid water leakage.
Bought mine 25 years ago...still perfect even with 25 northeastern winters of constant wear
I love my Bean Boots, I wore them fishing a few weekends ago and fully submerged them past the rubber bottom and up to the laces while I got the boat onto the trailer, and my feet were completely dry! I was a bit surprised to be honest. I wear them outdoors to play a round of disc golf or wear them to work and be comfortable and warm all day. Worth every penny to me.
Love bean boots. Great for kicking around in the slush and snow. And they last for years
Yeah I've owned these for about 10 yrs and rode my bike throughout all winter in downtown Chicago. With wool socks inside regulars, you'll stay warm and dry. Heel still has lots of life and only have had to replace laces
These are my favorite shoes to just wear with thick socks in the winter! Yeah they’re “trendy” but at least it’s a quality, made in America trend.
I bought the Maine hunting boots earlier this year, went a whole size down, perfect fit and they are very comfortable.
My pair of LL Bean Maine Hunting shoes are around 15 years old. Lots of memories. They live by my door from fall thru spring. Could maybe use a resole... but still useable. They really do get better after a few years of use.
So happy to see you finally review these shoes! They are my favorite boots in my closet, I wanted to say that I have never had an issue with my pair when it comes to water getting in, I’ve trekked through streams where the rubber was submerged and didn’t have any problems. I do make sure to add extra boot wax on the stitching areas when maintaining them just in case, but the above information took place before I ever started caring for the leather or rubber as that was shortly after purchasing them. Little tip when it comes to maintenance, the rubber parts need Armourall Protectant on them to prevent cracking and restore shine, that comes recommended from L.L. Bean themselves and is a common question new purchasers run into.
These boots saved my feet, my job, and made me a lifelong LL Bean customer. As a teenager working 45 hours a week on golf course in New Hampshire, I got a nasty case of athletes foot. So itchy it made me cry! A friend and I took a road trip to Freeport, Maine to get some good waterproof shoes. Problem solved. I spent 3 more summers mowing wet grass and never had a foot problem again with these duck boots.
Why do I like these cut in half videos? Glad I found you Mr. Kay
Here in NH, water proofing the top leather portion keeps them dry. I had mine for 30 yrs./winters, wearing to Farm everyday and in the "muck". Hence, we referred to them as "muck boots".
👏😊👏
I have the uninsulated Maine Hunting Shoe in 16 inch uppers. Awesome boots. I live and hunt in Florida, so a flexible, tall, waterproof boot is just what I need. I'm never in the woods without them on. Great review!
Brings back fond memories of my families hunting camp in northern Maine. There were several pairs of bean boots that were left there for then purpose of being worn while hiring deer. Haven’t been there in several years but they are probably still there hanging by the wood stove.
Absolutely durable classics. I've had the same pair for 31 years. No joke.
I think they're fantastic. My feet are always warm and dry. You are right that they don't provide as much support as other boots would. However, they are extremely utilitarian and fit my personal style so I love them during the colder months.
Worked at the factory that cut the uppers for these. Still have a pair just like this in my closet well after leaving Maine. Love them.
I’ve has mine for a couple years now and really like them. I also wanted to avoid the “the trendy bean boot” look so splurged for a flannel lined thinsulate pair with a dark colored upper. They look great. I wear mine mainly in snow and slush and they are comfortable walking a few miles in those conditions.
I have a pair of the 12” Maine Hunters and a pair of 8” Bison leather. Their both pretty amazing. I wish the 12” boots were 10”, but they are both great. The bison leather gets better every time I wear them. Having two pairs allows me to ship one back to Bean for resole without missing out.
I've had an all black, sherpa lined pair for several years. They come out of the basement sometime in the fall and don't go back until late April. they are great to slip on to go to the mail box, store or whatever. I have gortex lined boots if its really sloppy out.
I admit that I originally bought these because they were on trend. But I have major respect for these boots now. I wear them for upland hunting in Oregon. My feet are always dry, even after crossing creeks (and wading in rivers, because I know I can, not because I have to!). My husband wears Danners, and his feet do not stay as dry as mine. When the weather and conditions are dry, I use a more technical boot for the support and breathability, but nothing beats my Bean boots in wet and soggy conditions.
I love my LL Bean boots... in snow or just hiking in all types of weather
Loved these boots for years. I did have an issue with the heel counter thing though, but only after replacing the insole.
These definitely gave your blade some good resistance while you were cutting through them! I could hear the quality of the leather as it gave way to the blade. Same goes for the sole and heel... those Walmart boots you did the other day couldn't compare to these. Fantastic demonstration and analysis!
If you lived here in the northeast I think you would love them.
I live in a western state now, looks very similar to where he lives, and its hilarious how useless my bean boots are to me after moving here. My girl still wears hers because it does snow and does get cold, but even in winter it's mostly dry ground or sharp rocks and steep gravel where I want to go. I'm amazed at how something so good for New England could be literally terrible out here, but oh well. You are right.
I have had my pair for about 6 years. I use them daily for multiple short trips out in my large grass yard. Being in the pacific northwest the grass is wet about 90% of the time. They keep my feet dry which is expected. They do not pickup mud and grass like vibram soles, you cannot believe the time saving not cleaning these soles every time I step outside. The laces slide easily in the eyelets so it is a snap to open up and put on. The laces when tied do not slip so no double tying required.
On the down side the stitching came loose on the heal strap after the first year. After five years the triple stitching pulled apart between the rubber and leather. I have return them twice to have them fixed, first time was less then $10.00, with new laces and inserts. Second time less than $40.00 new rubber bottoms, laces and inserts. So very happy with the boots, very happy with the service. They Just need a better stitching thread. The person that fixes you boots gives you a call personally to let you know they are fixed, what they did and let you know they going in the mail today. So cool.
I have never tied any of my Bean Boots in 40 years. Just knot near the end of the laces so I can just slip my foot in and out.
I rock an olive green pair of these. I don’t care if hipsters and PSL moms wear them, because they’re simply fantastic for bad weather.
I didn't know there was any sort of stigma associated with these boots. Hipsters aside, I've never much liked the looks of these boots, but his description of the functionality of the boots combined with made in Maine and the ease of getting them resoled has me interested.
It’s like leaving the house and saying, “My feet will not get wet today.”
Got my first pair more than 50 years ago. Still have my second and third pair.
I wear the Maine Hunting Shoe, great for duck hunting. Handles the Australian winters very well
Wow heres a trip from memory lane. Had a pair as a kid in upstate NY. Did get a lot of hunting use out of them.
Great stuff. I love the cut centered score!
I've been wearing these for 40+ years. Mostly hunting. My first pair I snagged from my grand dad . He was throwing them out because of the bottoms being worn out,he had others. At that time LL Bean replaced the bottoms free. They ended up a bit small so a few years later bought a pair of 16" hunting boots that lasted 20 + years with 3 sets of bottoms. The last time I had the bottoms replaced the company said they didn't make 16" tops and laughed when I told him how old they were. The leather was getting pretty bad so got a new pair of 14" hunting boots ,tallest they made a few years ago. They are legit. Not a good boot if your setting in a tree in freezing temps but with a good pair of wool socks and a sandwich you can hunt all day still hunting. They have been with me all over Ohio,Pa and Canada. Great review. I've always wondered how they were put together. Oh. I've always used a wax sealer on the leather. Melted in with a hair dryer. Thanks
Great video, always wondered if these were good boots. I used to thumb through the LL Bean catalog when I was a kid. Still breaking in my Frank's Commander 1 boots and Jim greens. Thanks for the video
These boots were perfect in Rhode island where most snow turned into icy puddles pretty quickly, but they don't work for me now that I'm in Minnesota - not warm or grippy enough.
perfect timing for the review!
Have worn these for many years, still have my first pair from 30+ years ago. One resole at the factory (as said, excellent customer service). At one time they made them with a cleated sole (Vibram possibly?). Destroyed them working on a golf course in my teens, unfortunately.
Still my favorite foul weather boots, snow blowing in particular. Not great grip on ice, but a set of Yaktrax and you're set. Great that the hipsters are wearing them, boosts LL Bean's sales (for now).
I'm from Maine and I got my first pair of these about ten years ago. While they have some drawbacks compared to the Danner hikers I wear daily they are amazing for their original purpose. Keeping you pretty comfortable while moving light and quietly through disgusting environments. They are slippery (great for balance building), that heel is very hard, and you have to accept some cold so you don't sweat, and they're unusable in the sharp, rocky environment I live in now. But they are great for what they are supposed to do.
I’ve really enjoyed my Cabela’s duck boots. I’m not an expert on leather quality etc. but they’ve been great for the past few years. Plus they were a good price at 60 bucks.
Love my LL Bean Boots, I have two pairs, mt first pair is over 25 years old and they are still in good shape. I've never had wet feet!
i've had my Bean boots for about 25 years now..love them..i knew L L Bean had a great warranty, but never thought about it on the boots?..i mean, it's a boot?..i'll be looking into getting new bottoms on these now..great video
I had been watching your videos to decide which boot to get, especially since black friday is going on lol. and was hoping to see LL Bean. I guess miracles do happen , ll bean is here.
I'm a traditional bow hunter and I have the 10" version, uninsulated and these are my go-to boot. They have the best feel of any boot I've worn and allow you to detect and move your foot off a stick or something else that is noisy and about to bust you. I can walk through muskeg, water, whatever and they work just great. When it gets cold, I double up my socks and all good. The only weakness they have is side hilling but otherwise, great boot.
Maine Hunting boot also has a slightly different rubber compound I thought too, softer.
Love my three pairs of Bean boots - low, high insulated and high shearling lined…
Those king of boots were off my radar... now I want a pair!
I have always seen Uggs as the pumpkin spice boot along with brand-name covered sweaters.
I've been waiting for this for sooo long!
I have the interior shearling tumbled leather version and it’s 😍😍😍
Glad to see you getting sponsored. Collect that bag... And great videos as always
