Nice job! My White's Steven's plain toe boot in Natural Chromexcel have developed the most beautiful patina. Perfect solid boots! Built like a comfortable tank and worth every penny
I love that you are putting a little money and some time into the redwings to give them more life. My parents grew up in the depression and so they didn’t throw away or waste things that had more life. I am like them, I get rid of things after I’ve used up a lot of the wear of something. So saving those uppers, which clearly have a lot of wear left, and putting some new soles on them is something I appreciate. Your video gets a thumbs up just for that! And the Whites are beautiful. If your feet don’t grow, those will last you 50 years.
Thanks for the review on the White's! I always enjoy your videos, man. And also kudos to you on the Red Wings -- I bet those'll look great on the half soles.
I became obsessed with Nicks' boots after I saw Weston cut them in half. I ordered a pair and months later I ended up taking a trip to Spokane (from TX) just to get my feet measured properly because I had screwed up. Nicks' took great care of me and since I was up there I drove down the road to Whites and discovered the Stevens dress cap, they had just released them. I ordered them as soon as I got home and I love how they offer the same support but don't look as chunky. I work in an office environment and it's a lot easier to match my clothes to these boots. The outsole/welt on yours looks quite a bit wider than mine, I wonder if the sole choice had something to do with it.
Possibly! That’s interested, I would be interested to see a photo of yours with the skinnier welt. I agree too that these are a great alternative that can be used in an office setting but also offer a ton of support. Thanks for sharing that story about traveling to Nicks/White’s.
Hey man, as always, I love your reviews. I have mp Shermans in olive wf and now the Stevens in black CXL. Do you feel like the toe is sharper or more sharp regardless of what White's says? Do you get a lot of wear out of it? I'm not sure how well it goes with denim...I love them but it's hard to style for a guy who loves flannel in the cooler months
Hey Jim I would say yes they are 100% more of a sharp toe than the MP is despite what white’s says haha. I don’t wear them a ton as for me they are a “dress boot” or a “Sunday best” only type of boot. I agree they are a little elevated style wise to wear super casually if you are just a normal guy. However I knew this when I bought them and I bought them with the intention to only wear them when I want to look a little extra nice. MPs are rugged enough for me for daily wear. Here’s a picture comparing the two and it’s plain to see that they are different. imgur.com/a/S34MiMn
How much do they weigh? I wouldn't worry about CXL. I have a pair of bounty hunters in british tan cxl. Almost eight months old and they have aged beautifully
Right now I'm thinking about buying the Stevens or MPs so I have a question . If you had to stand on your feel all day and walk around witch boot do you prefer ?
They feel honestly the same! The last is nearly identical except in the shape of the toe box, if you size correctly you shouldn’t feel the toe box so therefore they feel the same
I would love to buy a few of your kilties, but I don't have instagram. Can I order them a different way? If I have to, I will create and instagram account.

Natural cxl is always a great choice!

Absolutely! So much life left, my kids will inherit my boots one day. Sorry kids, no money but you’ll have footwear for a lifetime -love dad.
Another great video! Always love your chill style and all the super super useful information
Thanks Dave!
Those are beauty!

Thanks brother!! I’m definitely having fun with the red wings. A fun learning experience for sure.
Thanks for sharing, the Stevens looks great. The Vibram 700 seems like a good choice, would like to try that myself
Thank you! It’s a great all around sole

Looks great! I would have asked for a double leather midsole --that would have been fantastic!
I'm looking for the finishedRed Wing video.
Good call! I was going for sleek though, more of a dress boot so double mid would have been too much for my purposes
Great review man. I just bought some plain toe ones in British Tan. Can't wait for them to get here.
I love British tan so much, that’s going to be a stellar boot congrats
The soft toe on the RW is a great idea!
That's a great looking boot
They are stunners! Totally agree
I’m excited to see how the red wings turn out!
Thanks Weston! Your OG dr martin re sole video is what started me down this path, so thank you!

Did you get the same size in both this boot and the mp?
Nice boots
Thanks!

Walking miles, MP. Standing static Stevens.
Thanks for your videos!! For the arch support, I normally wear sneakers, will the arch support be hard to get used to?
I would start with the MP last. 55 or 50/50 might be too much!
@@trinityhandmade3864 Thanks a lot for your advice.
Hey curious, how much taller is the Steven's heel in comparison to the MP ?
Just a hair over 1/4”
Do you find this more comfortable than the c350 cutters?
They feel honestly the same! The last is nearly identical except in the shape of the toe box, if you size correctly you shouldn’t feel the toe box so therefore they feel the same
Can you get pull loops
I don’t think you can get them on the stevens boots
I hate creasing inside the cap area, but unfortunately its happens sometimes....and its worse when it only happen to one foot and not the other....
This is true!
I have one foot that’s longer so that often only happens to the longer foot since the crease point is further down
@@trinityhandmade3864 would you blend the other one just to make it symmetrical? XD
I would love to buy a few of your kilties, but I don't have instagram. Can I order them a different way? If I have to, I will create and instagram account.
