I must be a real boot head / leather nerd because I thought that interview was terrific. I learned a lot and father/son were so nifty. I have gotten into repairing some of my own leather goods (shoulder holster harnesses, etc.) but I keep telling myself I do NOT need another hobby.
As a Wisconsinite and MKE resident, this is so awesome you came out to Milwaukee to interview them. I hope you had some New Glarus while you were here. Cheers to a great interview!
It's hard to believe but this channel just keeps getting better! Amazing interview and great job of using footage to illustrate the conversation.
Tiny bit of constructive feedback. A more dynamic camera use during the actual interview could have helped when discussing boots/ leather in the room.
All the best to both you and Seidel!
these guys bring alot of life to the leather, I had no idea. I'm glad I watched it, they care for the leather, as if it had never died (from slaughtering the critter)
Great show! Love to see the wear on those, Jr.
I like this frank discussion of boots and leather! Also, liked the way you put your two cents in by putting your boots up on the table! 🔥
You do bridge that gap and it’s great. Appreciate the work you do as someone who grew up in a City, I find it all very interesting and informative.
Cool informative video for me as a person who knows nothing about leather and a city boi lol I really appreciate how everything is made and makes me appreciate my boots even more I have pretty much not even used my sneakers anymore since i been watching your channels and now have became a boot head I've bought about 10 boots since watching your channel pretty crazy but way worth it. Btw the ND2s are breaking in nice now lol
I'm impressed. Went from sneakers straight to ND2s? You've gone ALL in...
@EssenceofPureFlavor yea man well my first pair of boots were red wing moc toes in the briar color which i been wanting since i got out of HS which was 2016 i didn't get into boots till like probably the beginning of last year and then finding rose anvil channel i just got way more into it; and it's true in my opinion these companies make a product that is worth your money I'm really glad i found this channel I'm never gonna have multiple sneakers ever again maybe 1 or 2 but not like before I use to be a sneakerhead but made a complete 180 lol
Great to peel back some of the mysticism behind Seidel leather and so nice to see the humanity behind the brand. I enjoyed getting to know the father and son behind the brand. I’m also very happy to hear that they make the leather in Thorogood boots. I own two pairs and I like them a lot. I am a professional camera assistant, and I hear the concerns about the audio and the camera focus but that didn’t distract me too much. Yes it’s good to improve and do thing better but I think it’s great that you’re making this content and getting the access to these people to hear their story and about their work and products. So cool to get access to people in the leather industry maybe we can get a Horween interview and I’d really love a White’s interview with the CEO but also maybe some of the bookmakers!
Absolutely loved this interview. You have come a long long way since that “Leather 101 video” years ago, thanks for being willing to go deep and add nuance.
Seidel makes solid stuff, but very few people have even heard of them.
I love these long form interviews with the manufacturers. It would be great to see more like this with Nicks, Whites, JK, Horween etc in the future. Maybe even one with Vibram.
That MoccaMaster behind them, just makes me like them more! If they are that serious about just coffee, imagine how serious they are about their craft!
Such a great conversation about the environmental impact of both meat and vegetable processing and how it relates to leather goods.
really appreciate this kind of content, would love to see these more often
I had no idea how much I needed this video!
Wow
Seidels double shot leather is just so rich and gorgeous. Love them on my Trumans -in oxblood double shot.
Agreed! I have the British tan double shot on my Perry selects. Awesome leather.
Great interview., love the part about the casual wearer appreciating the high quality., and the fashionable aspect taking on a new purpose for PNW brands
This was awesome, thanks for doing this!!
Love some long form content from Ms Rose!
*Also love the spacestation hoodie. Long live A for Adley
I enjoyed the insights this video revealed and never got bored. Loved the format. For me, the biggest surprise was seeing you wearing those $900 Shell Alden Indys you criticized on a video five months ago. 😮
I mean they are $900 dollars I would be getting my moneys worth out of them too. In fact before my discount my Whites Smoke Jumpers were over 1k nicely reduced to $800 ish
Amazing interview! Thank you for doing this.
I love this content ❤. Just getting into leather craft and this is gold.
very, very cool. have stuck to horween, but will look out for seidel leather in future.
My Thoroughgoods are so nice. Zero break in they’re perfect from the first wear. Worth every penny.
Love the Double Shot on my Parkhurst boots! Thanks Seidel!
Great interview. I was drawn to your channels because I can tell how passionate you are and that's so interesting to watch. I eat a plant based diet and am always torn on this topic. I believe eating plants is better for me, the environment, and certainly for the poor factory farmed animals, but I also am so worried about the plastic being used in everything. I get that leather is going to last so much longer which is why I'm still planning to buy leather work boots. I'm eyeing the White's Millwood currently as a good option under $400 that will probably last me forever working in my garage and around the house on the weekends. And it's made in the USA which I appreciate. Great video again.
Ps please compare the White's Millwood or Perry (I think they are basically the same boot with a different toe?) to the JK 300 if you can. Those seem like the two best options under $400. Thanks!
Loved this
Those paintings in the background are really subconsciously talking to me ! Lol 😂
1). The Bullseye & Cows ass ! 🎯🐄
2). Cow is staring right at you 🐮
Watching in my gray esmonda Truman boots made from Seidel leather!
I found this fascinating
please please make a series of videos on the leather production, having worked as an upholstery assistant id love to know more,
mill/tannery series will be god like
I’m curious as to what the most comfortable boot is. I’m a server and bartender, and I need black polishable non slip shoes/boots.
I use blundstone all terrain which are non slip, black, and polishable, but I need more comfort. Any suggestions?
I'm a leather freak, anything leather and specifically good quality in shoes and jackets , I love redwings and jackets Eastman, and American jackets schott company, Eastman jackets are unbelievably beautiful and the quality is supreme.
that light grey kind of denim color they keep showing looks nice. what product did that go into?
Would love to know where I could by a couch with a more natural leaver.
Weston is in Wisconsin! Welcome from Madison, friend.
When are you done with the aldans?
I still have an old leather pool case my grandfather got in the 60s and it's still going stronger
Interesting video. COOKIES!😊
I’d be really interested in getting an Apple Watch band made from leather from these guys
You could buy some of their leather and make a small batch of watch bands. Once you can measure the demand go to a leatherman shop and put in a bigger order. The adapters and buckle should be silver to match the price. You could make a good amount of profit off those because very rich people use Apple Watches. Remember there’s 62 million millionaires out there. If you cater to their needs and market it correctly you will find success.
Are there any particular furniture manufacturers that use your product.
Nice video, pretty interesting stuff
However, some constructive criticism, this kind of interview/borderline podcast content needs a higher standard of audio quality than normal videos, since for lots of people listening, the audio is literally the entire product.
Lots of popping in audio of this video, different mic, pop filters or mic stands are good solutions for this.
Room reflections too, even if they throw some sound blankets on the floor/off camera or wherever.
Also there are automixers (generally on higher end recorders but also some that can be used in post) that'll dip the non active mics to reduce the extra room reflections and noise while keeping the noise floor consistant.
Would you please, dissect, the difference between whites and whites Hathorns!? I have a pair of 10 inch smoke jumpers with Vibram V100 red x soles and so forth. but no one has ever delineated or quantified the difference between the Whites "regular" and Hatorns except the price!? which tannery does Whites use use (Seidel or Horween or commodity? what is constitutes the price difference? Please help.
Dunno but i have a pair of Hi-Line Hathorn that I rebuilt into a Franks Commander. The upper leather is still super stiff and rugged. I dont belive the arch support is the same but I didn’t dissect them before i sent them off. It was a Stitch Down or Clamp down vs Handwelted.
Just hire people who apply. I can't tell you how many places I've applied to and got no response. Literally skilled labor like this.
Mississippi Tantec tannery in Vicksberg is huge.
Wait 4 weeks to break in I wish 😂. My Jks took 7 months of daily wear in all weather conditions 12+ hour days.
@29:16 🤣 hit me header
Does anyone know what he meant by the "old" Tobacco Stampede vs the current one?
I'm guessing he's talking about the same leather that inspired Whites when they made the Perry Select.
Hey Weston! I love those pants, what are they??
Greasepaint workwear!
A boot I’d like to see is the Doc Martin Chelsea boots.
If you’re thinking about doing dressier type boots, you should definitely do it as a collaboration with a fashion channel that recommends boots from time to time, like Teddy Baldassare for example. I guarantee these guys watch your channel, but I do reckon a lot of them recommend stuff that is garbage, you can then show them what really goes into their boots. Although that may f*ck up a few sponsors 😂
What are they paying for techs?
Fritz is coming from Germany , Fritz = Friedrich my grandad his name was Friedrich Otto Kuhn or Fritz Kuhn .
yeah, I or a friend did run over a bunny rabbit while harvesting peas, that was unfortunate but the poor critter just didnt run away from the giant pea combine properly and got smooshed. poor thing, but it does happen.
It's natural selection. It is sad, but it is simply what was meant to be.
Fritz Jr sounds like he’s going to sell the company asap
Forgot Hermann Oak
Do Wickett & Craig next!
My thoughts exactly
💯❣
"Fritz" in Germany is just the short form for "Friedrich".
I watched a program were they made everything from carbon, which can be recycled 100%. Only thing is everything would be dark grey. And i mean everything! Anything you can think of it would be grey! People don't want that! They will pay hundreds of dollars for trainers ect. Then they throw away. I have leather shoes from when i was 17. And great leather jackets from 1980, which are still sold today! I am now 62. And they are still good! Resoled now and again, but ghe leather is still good! I have always looked after my foot wear. And all are leather! Great to hear common sense!
I like imperfections in leather.
Weston, please get some nicer dynamic mics with desk mic stands. It’ll make these videos so much better. I’m absolutely loving this video, but I had to stop around the 29 minute mark to write this. Love your videos, stay awesome!
yeah, natural materials are apparently more "dielectric" which is good for your aura/human energy field, I wonder how you guys might amplify the natural dielectric capacities of your goods, that might be a way to go, since you're already all natural.
Those plastic "nature" zero drop shoes are marketed to vegans.
It's ironic that certain people will revere indigenous cultures for living off the land and using the entire animal without wasting anything yet they condemn white men when they do the same thing but have used science and art to perfect these processes. Admittedly, the destruction of small, cottage businesses by big business and industrial manufacturers resulted in a focus on maximizing short-term profits; however, with the rise of decentralized, local artisans who focus on generational preservation, business methods again take into account sustainability, regeneration, and social responsibility.
You are making large assumptions about city folk.
Ouch, the audio on this hurts. Needs some production.
As a leather lover, the “facts” you use here are at least not correct.
1. Leather is a great material and a biodegradable one, much more then plastic, the problem is the tanning byproducts, usually at low end tanneries in the 3d world thats why you should buy from a company who is open about its sourcing.
2.raising cattle is a huge ecological problem in the scales that it is now, from the raising of food ( those corn fields you are speaking in, who eats it?) to the use of open areas. We should consume less. Never the less it is our responsibility to use every bit of the animal, including the hide! Its an obligation nothing else.
3. You should check Conker boots from the UK as a high end leather minimalist boot. Looking forward for that.
As usual, thanks for the content
2.
unfortunately, your camera is covered with petrolatum, my eyes started to hurt after 3 minutes of watching... I guess I'll have to just listen...
I wanted to Seidels to look like the elves from lord of the rings. It can only be done on a 8 year old cannon rebel
@@RoseAnvil unless the footage is out of focus couldn't that have been fixed in post?
bro why you making guests hold a mic, its annoying and you can hear how crappy the sound quality is, just get little shirt mics next time bro.
Boohoo
Shut up bro.
And the cameras are both totally out of focus. It's not hard.
Whining like hell
@@clintonleonard5187 it’s not hard?
Mistakes get made. He’s not a professional camera operator obviously.
Just because you’re a UA-camr, doesn’t mean you won’t make a mistake either.
You have to also consider how much time they would give him. How much equipment they wanted around, set up time, and ALSO just wanted to carry around for their trip.
How many interviews are on your channel? How many interviews have you shot?
How many multi camera setups and multi mic set ups have you done?
So annoying that you’re whining about the video quality when there’s a good informational interview.
It’s annoying when you also don’t have any content on your channel and call it easy like you have actually shot anything before.
The set up isn’t perfect. He should have the best camera on them. He can improve the mic set up but needs XLR lav mics for his recorder or additional stands for the mics, but stands for travel take up space and require set up time. Could use additional recorders, wireless recorders but that’s all additional storage, batteries, variables to worry about.
What cameras did he bring? What light is available? Did it look right when he started recording and then go out of focus? Or is it a little camera he couldn’t see the sharpness on easily? Where he could have easily forgotten to clean the lens if it was dirty. Was it simply a MISTAKE that’s not worth throwing away a whole interview for?
It’s not hard… I have my doubts you’ve ever shot anything or know anything.
So hes lacking workers that dont care for a work life balance.
leather vs Plastics? Lol? Imagine leather replacing every plastics and think again.
They just mean in leather shoes and other leather goods
Ok, as a devil's advocate I'll try to take the opposite direction. If whole world would eat the same amount of meat as average US citizen, it would have tremendous impact, on the planet as a whole. I agree leather goods are better more durable and recycable, but there are conflicted groups of interests. Global producers, that want to make cheap shit as 500$ shoe would only appeal to some enthusiasts it's more lucrative for companies to make you buy a new 100$ pair once in a quater.
You interrupt too much dude, let them speak freely.
You have to first learn how to sit properly showing respect.
not a fan of chrome tanning sorry
Then why even click on the video?
It's a bit disingenuous to criticize plastics for not being biodegradable when you literally only use chrome-tanned leather... which isn't biodegradable. Not to mention the environmental impact of the cattle industry and the chromium.
This fake
Wdym?
Have you heard of Santa Rosa Boots company? Had a pair for years, great boots.
