The ariet boots were my gateway into western boots. They are affordable I don't mind beating them up and they comfortable. Now I'm in the hunt for great traditional boots.
I am all traditional all of the time. the leather form fitting to your feet keeps the plantar fasciitis away. I wear em 15 hors a day every day. Unless it's snowing.
I have plantar faciitis and around 16 started having bad pains and problems. Around 18 started wearing cowboy/lineman boots only, I’m now 32 and don’t have any problems and even have a slight arch now
Nice video JC! Love the rundown! It would be nice if your reviews used this scale. I know you say it, but placing any given boot on this scale would be awesome! Lucchese has definitely made middle of the road and attempted modern.
I love this video! I think it helps people to think in terms of how to build a boot collection instead of thinking brand v. brand. You could make yourself a collection of three pairs… one from each of the three spots (modern, middle, and traditional) for starters.
Can you please do a video on the most traditional boots still being made? Brands in addition to hondo. I know Chisos is more traditional besides the removable insole. This would be so helpful because it is getting harder to find truly traditional boots
Very cool video, i like the style and discussion. I guess the Hondo 7875 would be somewhere in between full traditional and the middle. Prefer full traditional at this point, but there are definitely benefits of a rubber sole here in the Northeast during winter.
My one pair of western boots are Ariat Rigteks. I wanted to try a pair of work boots that weren't big and heavy, like the Chippewa logger boots I was wearing.
Hey could you do a review of the Boulet boot 9293. I have been looking at buying that boot but can't find any reviews of it and I love doing research before buying something. Please and thank you
I love your luseltoboots on the top left of you. I have a pair similar to them but they're more pointy, plus have silver toe caps and silver heel guards. I think mine are possibly cobras
How do I get into the Hondo boot giveaway? I’m new to channel here. Love your videos. Can’t watch enough of them. I’m in market for new pair of boots and I’m not sure what I want but your videos are helping me narrow it down.
As mentioned in the video description, this segment was part of a live stream back in November 2021. The Hondo give away was back then. As the channel keeps growing Hopefully there will be more coming. Glad you are loving the content and good luck on your boot hunt. If you haven't already feel free to join the Facebook group.
Hey Daniel! Sorry but this giveaway was back in November and this segment was from the love stream portion of that. I should've made that clearer in the video. Be sure to sub so you can get in on the next giveaway!
Always enjoy your informative videos. Assuming a traditional made boot like Black Jack fits well what are the advantages to spending the money for a custom boot that goes for a thousand dollars and up for a basic leather like bull hide. Some of the boot makers you interview talk about fit and and quality compared to the lesser quality boots but how do they compare to a Hondo for example.
More attention to detail in custom boots and plus custom boot makers will measure your foot in nearly a dozen different places and literally make the boots just for you. That's the real value in custom boots. It's all in the fit!
@@JeremiahCraig Agreed I'm actually on the waiting list for a pair from Steve of Perrincreek boots. Thought it might make for an interesting video. If a well made pair of boots that are broken in to your feet are any less comfortable.
Im a try to somehow send u some of my songs that ive recorded on my flat top on reaper. God bless brother. Keep picking and strummin and keep the boot videos coming .
Hundred years ago these boots were workwear and any other farmer boots were hobnailed the normal clod hopper plow chaser throughout the USA They were hobnailed did this hold true for what we call cowboy boots today just leather-soled alone would be lousy as a work boot?
I have a pair of Laredo Snakeskins that was made back in the 80s. That was back when they didn’t cut corners on their boots like they do now. All traditional
I've had a two pair of the modern Ariat bantam weight ventek. For comfort they are hard to beat however I tend to wear one edge of the heel off in a about a year rendering them junk as you can't easily fix it, also I don't care for the fact the paint comes off the sole. I feel like at about $200+ they probably aren't the best value for me as I wear them daily. I'm saving now for some Anderson Bean or some other more traditionally made boot.
I like and wear both. I prefer vintage traditionals. They look like cool with an aged petina. Suggestion/question: Have you ever done a video in boots and dress pants? One for those of us who wear boots to the office.
I think some modern boots are great for working in and just beating on but I love the tradition boots and how they fit around my feet just nothing beats traditional
You should do a review of the ariat sport ranger boots I recently purchased a pair and just broken them in they are a really comfy but for some reason I can't find anyone doing reviews about it
Cool video. I prefer traditional to “modern” (cheap) because traditionals like my Lucchese ropers will last 5 times more than a pair of cheap Ariats.... But I don't doubt Ariat boots are very comfortable!
I would like to get a pair of traditional boots like the Hondo but I need a 14EE and a lot of the traditional boots only go to a 13. The one thing that’s sucks about being a big guy.
Great video!!! I noticed a big difference with leather lined boots. Nicer feel and easier to pull on. I tried to get some Tecovas from their new CA store, but they don't seem to be ready to properly serve customers yet. Maybe I will give them another try in a few months. For now, I'm really liking the Lane boots...likely in the middle construction I imagine.
You would be surprised how much some hott water and 91%alcohol it help shrink leather. If a vamp is a little too lose I’ll spray it pretty god and let them sit, and it’s done the trick many times. I’ve also used the trick to shrink some parts on a leather jacket that were a hair to big.
If you add a foam insole to a traditional boot, would it become less traditional? My Justin Bent Rails were slightly loose so I had to put Ariat insoles in them. Also my preferred cobbler will NOT repair Ariats, so you got that right.
I have a pair of the 16in hondo boots I have 3 tecovas soon to be 4 I have a pair of old justin ropers justin camien boots and Tony Llama ostrich boots and I have to say my favorites are the tecovas can't wait for them to bring out them cowboy hats....but with that being said I like all my boots
I prefer traditionals because I trust them more that they don't go cheap at critical places. I was using a traditional (all-leather, wooden-nails etc...) pair for 8 years (continously) and the heel counter is still perfect. I have a pair of modern laced boot too and its plastic heel counter cracked in 4 years. @Jeremiah, have you ever thought of creating a video of the European (Spanish) brands like Sancho, Sendra, Mayura or do you just buy Americans? Have you ever tried these brands?
hey jeremiah, if you want you could review the nocona jackpot! It looks great for entry level but I dont have any stores nearby that carry nocona, because I am in germany, so a review with an extended test would be awsome they look traditional but have some things that are modern that make em better in my opinion
The only boots i wear are los altos and tecovas. The heel counter is infact leather just like a traditional made boot, so you were mistaken on that part. The only things not "traditional" about los altos is the leather topped slightly padded insole, and also like you said they don't have the channeled welt. Besides that they are completely traditional. Main point im getting at is los altos and tecovas are about as traditional as it gets without being 100%. So id have them between traditional and middle, definitely not completely inbetween
They use plastic or celastic heel counter. There's nothing wrong with any of these being where they are on the scale. They all have their purpose and pros and cons. Los Altos and Tecovas may look traditional but they are in the middle which is cool. Nothing wrong with that.
According to los altos the heel counters are leather. Thats what it says on the websites and the tag that comes with the boots. Im not gonna tear open a boot to check. But either they're lying or you are mistaken. Love your content.
I just got the Ariat Heritage Roppers in the Distressed Brown color. Should I be using a distressed leather conditioner, or something normal like Bick 4?
@@JeremiahCraig I just got them in and unfortunately, it looks like they came with the wrong outsole. This is like my third time having to return them for various reasons, lol. Do you ever have this much trouble getting a specific pair of boots?
@@JeremiahCraig Agreed. I just purchased their #2. Love them so far. Chisos can thank you for that sale, saw your video on them and had to get them. Thanks!
I wear a pair of peanut brittle lizard Justins I bought in 1993. They still look new. They are traditionally made and it shows. Would Ariats last as long and look the same? I doubt it.
I enjoy your videos on boots and play guitar. I see you’ve traveled to upstate ny a few times right near my area. I play guitar too so maybe we’ll jam sometime
Very interesting video, and I learned a lot. However, there is one aspect of traditional vs modern boots that you didn't mention, and that is what kind of last is used to form the boots. I have feet with a very high arch (ballerina feet), and I haven't been able to get my feet into any brand of cowboy boots except Ariat. And that has nothing to do with the materials or the construction techniques - it has only to do with the flatter last all those other brands use...
"Hello Jeremiah, this video presentation is very successful and for good reason... The ARIAT boots in terms of the seams, the shape of the boot, the breathing system etc. it's really good and so good that on ebay, these ARIAT boots went like hotcakes, very quickly sold! That is to say the quality... I just regret the plastic heel etc. but that quickly catches up with the authentic resolution of the ARIAT boot in this model. It's just Very good ! "
As mentioned in the video description, this segment was part of a live stream back in November 2021. The Hondo give away was back then. As the channel keeps growing, hopefully there will be more coming soon.
i love leather bottom boots used to wear them for work as well because that was just all i wore than my wife got me a pair of rubber bottom for work and now i will never wear leather bottom for work ever again.
This is very important. So many companies are racing to the bottom for quick money...Not to mention outsourcing to use slave labor. Just like Harris Tweed in Scotland has a legal license for Tweed of the Heberdies. American Western States need a legal license where only cowboy boots can be made in America at minimum and the west as much as possible... If not everyting is going to be made by slave labor...
I just bought some R. Watson boots. Traditional all around except for the Outsole which is not leather because I don't like them that way right now. But I originally liked the Ariat boot because of that nice breathable shaft. But the sole is usually ugly and why dobi want a cowboy boot made in China.
One difference I have see between Traditional and Modern is “Made in ___” Modern will probably be made in China or India whereas Traditional is made in America or Mexico or Spain The in the middle could be from anywhere
Brother i could party with u 😂. We need to have a drink and play some flat top together lol. You talk like i do. My wife and daughter love your videos .
good video on the differences but my thing is who cares, do y'all love your boots or not? I love mine...own 3 pairs and devote 1 pair to work in and the other 2 I wear everywhere. I live in the liberal shit hole IL and I think people just have come to realize it's who I am...I'm a boot man no doubt. I wear the "western style square toe" I guess you would call them...may not be considered a "cowboy" boot but Idgaf what people think ...they fit me just right! 😉
Hondo is traditional..?? Lemon pegs with solid brass, with that colours, with plastic and rubber details???)) Seriously?) I think, Lama and Nocona is most traditional... But brands is dead!( In your video was Dan Post from 1980+-, Bull Hide (made in USA or Spain) it was traditional!))

Right on, traditional snip toe all day for me.
I gotta get some new boots. any suggestions?
I have plantar faciitis and around 16 started having bad pains and problems. Around 18 started wearing cowboy/lineman boots only, I’m now 32 and don’t have any problems and even have a slight arch now

Got me some traditional boots in Leon Guanajuato and they are very good boots I bought a pair of ostrich and a pair of caiman

Where would you put Chisos on the spectrum of traditional to modern?
do all cowboyboots get water in them if in puddles
Ariats Heritage Roughstock has 100% leather upper inside and out. Also has a Goodyear welt. I would say they’re more traditional
Totally modern automated machine construction .

Great observation, noticed that as well
One day ill buy a traditionaly made boot!
Now i got it!
Talk too much, say to little got tired of listning at the beginning 😅
Traditional is the only way to fly I've yet to find a boot with tennis shoe insoles that fits my feet worth a god damn
I hear that!
Only advantage I can see for boots like Ariat are for shitkickers.
Brother i could party with u 😂. We need to have a drink and play some flat top together lol. You talk like i do. My wife and daughter love your videos .
I would say tecovas is totally modern shit build boot I would have put Chisos in the middle traditional build with removable insole
