White's Boots Review - White's are among the best boots in the world, they are handmade in Spokane Washington by a team of skilled craftsmen. Whites boots super expensive and usually cost $500-$600 like their famous Smokejumper boots. So when they were released with a moc toe boot that was cheaper that Red Wing's Classic Moc, and half the price of their other boots a lot of people were excited and a lot of people were suspicious. So I got a pair to cut in half to see what’s inside and if they live up to the White’s name.

I really appreciate the company sending you a boot with a small flaw to cut in half rather than waste a whole good pair by cutting in half, It would be nice to see this from more companies you work with in the future
Could not agree more. Wasting good points is hard to take.
Exactly
We dont have nothing to spare here in spokane Washington.
He has said in the past that he wants to keep distance between himself and the companies he reviews for bias mitigation.
Thats the first thing I thought. Now thats something that deserves recognition for, I'm in the market for work boots right now and they just sold me on that. Great job
You can't hold your smile when your talking about being the first to cut this boot! 🤣
A year and a half later, my Whites Perry boots are still holding up great! Strictly for casual wear. The carboard heel thingy's still holding their shape. I like the boots, nice and roomy! Went down a half size and wider width from my normal size 10-1/2. If I buy again, may go down a full size and stay with the wide width. Entering my senior years and need wider shoes for my big feet!! As always, thanks for sharing! Ken
If these came in a safety toe, I'd be all over them for work. These would pair nicely in my workboot rotation alongside my Thorogood Moc Toes but according to White's Customer Service, this boot is too new and they haven't had time to test a safety toe on it yet. Hopefully in the future.
I really like the look and shape of these more than the others, personally.
Their construction visually looks more work boot while still being attractive.
They are sexy, don't much like the looks of the price tag compared to everyone else but Redwings.
@@gwsmith4872 I like the fit and comfort of the Perry way more than my Redwing 1907 Copper. Both are a size 9D, the Perry has a wider, and looser feel. My Red Wings are hard in the sole and more narrow in the toe. I like the look of both, but I can wear the Perry all day, not a work boot for me though. If it had a steel toe, I would love to get a pair for work.
The toe isn't annoying like the Redwing. And they still have the casual rugged look. But they're also tough as hell if they live up to whites name. I might pick up a pair for work myself
It looks roomy. Too roomy. Like it will have a lot of sag points once it gets worn in
I like how White's switched back to their vintage stamp on the upper
Quick Clarification - Whites doesn’t use the cardboard counter in the majority of their boots but they have the cardboard counter in the past in some of their more affordable boots with great success. As far as I know their regular $500+ boots use solid leather counters.
Got my Whites yesterday. I had ordered my normal size and they fit and feel fine. I'll see how my extended wear goes on them but so far standing in line to vote outside and then walking around on dirt, grass and concrete they are meeting all my expectations.
Hey I have a pair of thorogoods that I wore to work for a year that I want to send to you to cut in half. Hit me back.
These are currently on sale for $215on their website
can those carboard parts get wet or what?
I got a pair of Whites Perry boots, during the Black Friday sale, for my first boots and I really like them. Thank you so much for the informative review.
this series has been amazing. you really knocked it out of the park. and to know you plan on doing long term content in the form of year-long on-foot reviews only gets me excited and shows how committed you are to what you do. my commendations
I’m really loving the addition of the centre cut score
I think I would buy these over the other moc toes. Looking forward to the finale!
I've watched almost all of these RoseAnvil videos. I never cease to be amazed at how sharp that cutting tool, whatever its called, must be. Hopefully Weston never slips and loses a fingertip. And this is the closest that a video has gotten me to immediately run out and buy.
Quite frankly, I have the nicks travellers with wedge sole and I don't like it as it's slippery on slopes and mud. Not a fan of the thin sole neither. The top is nice. I would prefer different soles, all of them.
@@thewizardsofthezoo5376 what the hell does your comment have to do with the one you replied to
Really fun to watch your channel. Family friendly, informative, and interesting.
These we're the first moc toes that I think look nice, and the quality looks real good too!
Also *squee* Toaster! I miss my kitties, they couldn't come to university with me.
My personal favorite of the series, and the best deal at that price! Thanks!
Another great video! Thanks for doing this one and for the entire Moctober series! Hearing you are going to do a long-term review in order to provide wear and longevity insight has me reconsidering an immediate purchase! Now I'm thinking I should hold off and see what your thoughts are in a few months! Be safe with that cutting and keep up the great work!
I am having my 35 year old White's PACKERS rebuilt now. Same price as these new boots ! Years ago I used to wear Moc Toe Red Wings until I decided they were more money than warranted given their previous quality. I am considering a pair of these Perry boots as result of your usual excellent review. Thanks.
That cut center score always makes me laugh. Good to see you have fun with it.
Wearing White's right now and I love them. Never had a pair of boots feel so good on day number one.
On a scale of 1-10, how tough are these during the break-in period?
@@bryangarcia2429 I have the Main Streets and they felt broken in on day one. I also have a couple pair of Helm Boots which I also like and it’s night and day difference. The Helm took a while to break in.
Are they true to size ?
@@818Vallero I’m a 12 and ordered a 12. Fit me great.
@@818Vallero I got the Perry in 9D, I have Redwing 1907 in 9D as well. I have Danner Bull Run, steel toe, in 9.5D.
The perry fit looser than the other two. But, the Redwing is forming to my foot well. The Danner are too narrow.
The Perry fit well, and were comfortable on day one. A month later they are still great. I wear a thicker sock, and use a Spenco arch support in all three of these boots.
After watching your review of the Lems boots I ordered a pair. Just got them today and the difference is amazing. My toes feel better already and I've only been wearing them for about an hour. I've been looking for a pair of work boots or shoes with a wide toe box forever. Im glad I saw that video. I thank you and my feet thank you
What a great site. Much more in depth and informative than others. Your channel is a “one stop shop” for any prospective buyer of moc toe work boots.
Well just found this video today and ordered a pair, there’s a 4 week back order on them but your video sold me on them!
I wouldn’t be surprised if this video has something to do with the back order status.
Wow ... I like them! :) ... Now we need to see the Chippewa and Carolina's cut in half!
I really like the kook of these other than all the contrasting stitching. Really looking forward to more colors though! Thanks for doing the whole Moctober series!
Super excited to see the finale! Quality content as always
Honestly, I watched your review and I decided to pick these up, had no idea it was going to change my life in the most positive way! Thank you 🙏 hands down the Best boots I have ever purchased! Thank you man! Keep doing you!
I want to order these but the White's site has me confused on sizing. How did you select the right size? I wear an 8D in Red Wings. White's is suggesting a 7.5D and I am hesitant. Did you drop a full size from your normal shoe size (1/2 size smaller than your RW size). Thanks for any help!
I went half size down and should have gone a full size. I just have to make sure I either wear thick socks or double up.
They looks amazing
Awesome review! Thanks for bringing the Whites into the mix at the last minute! Will you ever do a service boot series?
Awesome to know these are made in the same city I live in! Great reviews as always!
I’m looking forward to your long term review. I wear the RedWings and want to hear how these compare.
A White’s boot under $300 is very exciting. Great video, thanks!
I was looking at the Whites but was unsure with the price point but now I’m going to give them a try . Thanks for the review .
Very interesting and entertaining. I have Whites and Nicks living one hour from Spokane. Just bought a pair of Zamberlans. Cant wait to see you review that style boot.
This moctober series has been awesome, sad to see it finish up but looking forward to the finale.
Also perfect timing as I’m buying a pair of Mocs very soon, I was locked in on redwing’s but the break in had me thinking, then the thorogoods, now these added to the mix.
Which did you go with? I hope you went with whites!
@@nismo_zrz3321 I went with two pairs of redwings. Love them.
@@Thepurolife good to know! I have some whites and love them, definitely going to get a pair of red wing moc toes asap. I’ve got a pair of 8111 iron rangers coming in tomorrow and I’m pumped! Glad to hear you’re enjoying the red wings!
Looks like amazing value for money.
Just ordered a pair of 8” Perry’s in brown. I have had their Smokejumpers for years and have switched careers. I love their products, will keep you posted on how they do out in the work force of Construction Inspection.
Amazing series. Loved every bit of it.
The boot scores 95% in my book. Practical, comfortable, aesthetically pleasing, affordable, and good quality.
On a lighter note though, X marks the spot at 13:10 😂😂😂
I work as a footwear salesperson at Cabela's. I really appreciated the video you made cutting open the carhartt boots. I will try to steer customers away from them.
Do you think you can cut a pair of muck boots in half? Specifically the Arctic Ice series, they feature 'vibram arctic grip' which is made out of some glass nylon or something. I'm not sure what it is, but the traction is incredible and I would love to see what's inside them. (They are also insulated to be suitable for use in -60 degree weather, it would be cool to see what that looks like, too.)
I know muck boots aren't leather, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.
Thanks! Keep up the awesome content
Hope you don't mind me asking you a question. Is the white's perry boot's outsole non-slip on oily restaurant kitchen floors?
@@thesheepthemightythecrazy they do not appear to be
@@sundaydriver206 damn, wish they were. thanks for the reply.
Thank you so much for Moctober!
I will be buying these boots! Thank you for the review!
13:10 -Toaster says ; "this is what people want to see, now I'll sit on this box cause I'm the champion."
I hope Halloween is some crazy goth boots!
Dude! I am loving this series format! Cannot wait for the collaboration on the final installment. I know it is too late for a cut apart video, but do us all a favor and grab a pair of RW mocs on the 45 last (8883 or 1907 perhaps) for your year long wear review next October. This way we can hear your thoughts on them compared to the original 23 last of the 875. You know you want another pair of RW anyway. Come on!!! Do it!!! :)
It’s been a great moctober thanks to all the work you’ve done with these reviews 💪💪
Can you do an update on these boots? How are the forming to your feet, patina, aging, comfort etc. Thanks
Thanks for all the work you do. Moctober has seriously made me reconsider my low opinion of moc toe boots. I also have some Mark Albert boots made of similar leather to these White's also from Seidel tannery and I really like it. Might have to try a pair of the Whites now.
How awesome of White‘s to send a boot with a cosmetic defect for cutting! Thoughtful, kind and sustainable. Warms my heart, makes me think they’re good people and I’m honestly going to look into them first now when my current boots bite the dust (I’m on my last resole)
I am a machinist. Work in oily conditions and coolant and a lot of hot metal chips. I have been using the thorogood mic toe with steel toe for over 2 years!! Excellent boots and really comfortable. I am going to try these whites boots and see if they compare. Time will tell
It’s between these and the redwings, for me. Whites has teased an eight inch Moc toe coming soon, I think I’m going to get that or the redwing eight inch, we’ll see the price tag when it comes out. We’ll only know how good the counter is when someone wears it for more months than it’s even been around. An amazing boot for the price point, from a renowned company.
I've passed on so many options for a new wedge sole simply because there is no 8" option.
MrDarthbader id get the redwing if they had the heritage 877s in wide sizes but that seems to be too hard for them
@@MrDarthbader Thorogood and Carolina make 8" moc toe.
@@northeastwanderer I own the Perry's and the RW 1907 Copper, both in 9D. The Perry fit is wider overall, and in the toe. The Redwing is hard on the bottom of my foot, the Perry is the one I can wear all day. As a reference, I use a Spenco arch support in each.
The heel cup/counter in the Perry is locked in to my heel, better than any boot I've owned. My heel tries to raise up in the Redwing, and I have to get the lacing just right.
Really enjoyed moctober, sad to see it end but can’t wait for the halloween special!
literally, when you cutting the shoe in half, I feel like my heart is cutting with it as well Maaaaaaan 😂😂. But your channel is very informative, many thanks man .. Greetings from Egypt
I have been thinking about the Red Wing classic mock toe to wear when I ride my motorcycle. After watching this video, I think I`ll give this boot a try. Thanks
i'd really like to see the new patagonia bison boots when moctober ends. their workwear is apparently well respected but this is their first boot so id love to see a teardown of it. please and thanks in advance. keep up the great work you do here
Me too.. I really like those boots!
While I was placing an order for these boots this morning, the White's site updated with a new color for these Perrys. It's called Red Dog. Snatched up a pair immediately! Looking forward to receiving them in a few days.
How long did it take to get your boots? Disclaimer is saying a 4-6 week wait!
In my hands a week after placing my order. Defective. Went back. Next pair in my hands a week later. Shipping was great. Quality was not so great. IMO, Whites treat the Perry as it's bargain basement boot. Vibrim sole is wearing like marshmallows. I won't be buying anymore White's.
@Fred S. They are great boots if you get a pair that's built correctly. They broke in quickly and easily. The leather is great. The sole is wearing faster than I expected. You just need to be prepared to send them back for exchange if they aren't built to your satisfaction. If they are for work only, and the looks aren't as important, they're great. My feet would have been very happy with the initial pair. My eyes were not happy. That said, I am happy with this second pair. I hope this helps.
Wearing them for 2 months so far they are wearing well, not too bad to break in the company is very good at helping and addressing issues for customers
I like these better than the other ones. Might be a Christmas gift to myself
I keep getting Dr. Martens ads delivered to me as pre-roll for Rose Anvil. I guess the algorithm doesn’t know about some of the earlier videos... 😂
Got one at the end. Lol
Saaaame 😆
Meramec Group is the supplier of the polyurethane outsole. Made in Sullivan, Missouri.
I been waiting all month for this!!!!
these are awesome, thanks for the great review! I hope they introduce a couple other colors, this one is kinda boring for me but I'm still really interested in getting a pair in the future
Will you do a Carolina boot review soon. Like a logger or linesman. I have always found them to be a good boot. But a lot cheaper.
I just ordered this boot based on your review, and having watched your other moc-toe reviews. Handmade in the USA of USA materials means a lot to me. I have been through several pairs of Timberland over recent years which are comfortable but not re-soleable. Have a pair of 1000 Mile that I love, and a pair of Red Wing which run narrow and kill my pinky toes. Apparently 10D in Red Wing is actually a 10 C/D. Looking forward to putting these White boots on the job-site.
Any update on how it held up?
I love those boots. Good work man. Keep up thanks
Appreciate your channel sir, keep up the good work.
Wish Moctober wasn't over, would've loved for you to take apart the Sears DieHard boots. Myself and many other guys in the field prefer these over our thorogoods/redwings and they're only $80
Can you still buy the Diehards?
@@djswany85 I hadn't thought of this until after I posted this comment... Seems like production of the boots has ended along with Sears going out of business. I'm only seeing them for sale from resellers or in very limited sizing options from Sears directly
@@kev2523 Caterpillars are in the same price range for workboots and they have no issues on distribution...
I've mentioned those on a couple of videos. It's hard to get a UA-camrs attention. Lol
Are they discontinued though? I've noticed a lack of restocking sizes during Sears financial troubles.
Just the other day I was looking at the thorogoods guys at work had on and the ball of the foot was so far worn down. It was really thin in that area. The wear on mine is hardly noticable.
I even had my left boot completely covered in a 2 part epoxy you mix out of paint buckets. Wiped what I could off before it set up and it's been soldiering on since. I have treated them with Obenauf's heavy duty LP.
Diehards are very popular in the trades around here and in the working man's, with family, price point. Would love to see how they compare.
Maaaan, now I REALLY want a pair of these...
Been waiting for this all month!!! I see it's hard for you not to have an ear-to-ear grin.
Just discovered your channel. Good work on the breakdowns of the different moc boots. I always wanted a pair of mocs past 15 yrs. As a kid in the 60's & 70's we always wore moc style or as we called them, "boondockers". About three months ago I bought RW 10875's and yes, very difficult to break in. Still not there yet. I like those White's you evaluate. Wishing I had discovered your channel few months ago. But I have always wore RW's safety boots for work and never regretted any of them. Great job! Where you located?
I want a moc to but have been so stuck on what mac toe. Moctober has been great and I think I'm getting whites now.
I’d love to see you review Jim Green boots!
Watched video. Because of video I bought the White's Perry boot for work in a facility with a mix of short carpet and concrete floor. After a week in these boots it seems I have made a good decision. No regrets so far. This is my first pair of higher end quality boots. Thank you for your video.
Update: Its now Nov 2021...9 months since my purchase. Still love my Whites Perry mocs. Plan to send them back to White's for a resole in February. Have used Saphir Renovatuer exclusively and the leather has become a deep dark brown which I love.)
I live in Spokane, and Whites has been a legendary main stay in the work and stylish casual footwear for ever it seams. At 66, i worked construction and building powerlines alongside side coworkers wearing Whites daily. Such high quality and craftsmanship goes into to each boot. Biggest issue is always wet conditions. Galoshes took care of that problem. I also have a pair of the Perry mock toes and really like them. Such a qualit product.
My top 3 from this series is Thursday, redwing and whites. Can’t wait to see the finale. I love Trenton and Heath!!
I worked Oil Field Services in the Austin Chalk for 20+ years, and Red Wing slip-ons got the nod with almost every crew. Most saturated the boots, dumped them out, wore Thick socks on day one. Next day they were left to relax and dry completely. After that, the new ones were worn alternate days till broken in, then worn regularly unless wet through on a very wet location, as we did some board locations where swampy. My experiences were in a smaller company with around 100 hands. We set, knocked down, stacked and moved drilling rigs - Plumbed tank batteries - set pump jacks - all with pole trucks or cranes. Also, we supplied tooling - drill stem - and downhole equipment while standing, working in any weather we encountered. I hope this helps.
I’m with you on those, I love the way they look! And I’ve been into thurogoods
Fantastic perspect and comments.
I’ve got some input on the compressed cardboard counter… I’ve owned two pairs of redwing 914 boots and they had cardboard counters. After years of wear and sweat, the cardboard softened and the top edge curled in causing them to push against my feet just underneath my ankles. These counters were internal and the only thing between them and my feet was the waterproof liner so since the perry is externally countered, I don’t see that being an issue. Long story short, I had to make a small cut at the top of the waterproof liner and remove the cardboard counters. Not a good thing to do but the boots became painful and borderline unwearable with the counters curled in.
Best center back stay cut yet?? Keep putting in the practice, maybe one day you will achieve 10/10.
Loved the video! I’ve been waiting on this one all week!
Enjoyed this series, I have the Redwing 1907 copper rough and tough for about 3 years now and they were a bear to get broken in but they are my favorite boot, I also have the Danner Bull Run Moc Toe and they are ok and I do wear them occasionally but the fabric in the toe where they sewn the fabric to the tongue together would always fold up when I put the boots on and I had to trim that down. I am really thinking about purchasing a pair of the Whites I like the look a lot. I really enjoy these videos keep them coming.
I own all three, the Whites Perry are my favorite, of all time. I got a 9D in the Perry and 1907, a 9.5D in the Bull Run. To me, the Perry fits right, the others are more narrow.
Absolutely the best boot review channel! I could not stop laughing when the red X showed up at the end of the video……, Great humor!
Just ordered the Millwood boots! They are the same style and price range as the Perry's but not moc toe. Would love to see a review of them. They were just released. My plan was to buy the Perry's on the Black Friday sale, and I saw the Millwood's and had to get them.
@Kalidog101 still happy with them. I don’t wear them daily or anything but I haven’t had any of the issues I’ve seen floating around. They feel plenty solid still. The leather is great. Thick but supple.
Are you going to make mock toe crocks?
How could you ask this and not say "croc-toe"?
@@craigstep888 i just set up the punchline...
Can’t wait for the reviews this Moctober!
I still own a functional pair of “Whites” Rough Out Elk hide 10” high boots purchased in 1979 😮❤ them
White's getting into this price point is game changing. I've always wanted a pair of their $500-$600 dollar boots but could never justify paying that much for a single pair of shoes. Defiantly looking forward to what else they release in this price point in the future.
Hey, I really enjoy your videos and this series was very interesting. Why do Moc-Toe boots all seem to have the wedge sole? I'm in Ireland and Its not something you would see on boots over here in Europe - unless it is someone actually wearing American boots. And thats very rare.
Also, it would be cool if you could try some European brands, Loakes or William Lennon. Anyway. Good channel, well done.
That's a good question, since I'm going to assume most of the hard working surface style jobs (where this type of outsole excels) are present in Ireland and the rest of Europe. Maybe the manufacturing process to make the soles themselves is more expensive there? Or maybe it's availability and the fact that the wedge soles wear out faster? Wedges are also not ideal for climbing ladders, maybe there's a reason related to that?
@@thechief043 I assume that basically the working environments here are much the same as North America. So I cannot see any reason other than style. I haven't noticed them being particularly prevelent elsewhere in Europe so assume they are an American thing. They seem impractical!
I have a pair of Chippewa moc toes that have a normal logger heal with a vibram sole.
@@paddyhickey1135 Yeah, it might be down to style and preference more than anything else. If I were working on concrete and the like, I'd personally prefer the wedge. Indy 403/405 are a moc toe that don't have a wedge either, but they're a very different type of boot to nearly all the moc toes shown here during Moctober.
I subscribed, though it was crazy to cut up boots, But I learned a lot.. keep up the work.
Great review... I am with you on the breakin period with the Redwing Moc... going to do my 1 yr review soon on my hertiage 1907.
It took me a year to break my 1907's in, but I didn't wear them very often, nor for very long. Although better now, the Perry were more comfortable the first day.
I really like Trenton & Heath, excited for the crossover.
Just got this boot two days ago. Damn that leather is thick! Soo comfortable to wear and the soft soles are like waling on clouds.
How's the counter? Can you feel it?
What size did you get, I am 11 d in most boots, how about you?
@@geoff2k I can't squeeze the counter, it's very stiff. But, my heel is locked in, in the best way. I've never had a counter fit so well. If the cardboard were to fall apart, it's got two layers of leather surrounding it.
@@salsa83 I got the 9D, and they are wider than a 9D Redwing 1907.
Really enjoy your breakdowns. Would love to see some Keen boots on your channel. They make work boots and hikers. Recently came out with a mock toe/wedge work boot. They also have some interestingly designed styles.
I got the Cincinnati moc toe 6" boots from Keen. The outsole rubber started separating within 3 weeks and now I sometimes trip on that loose rubber. Keen gave me a $215 warranty claim voucher to replace them.
Really love the way these look. Gonna get these and the black Thorogoods.
5th, Also, if the shank is in the outsole, when they wear down and you replace it, won't that process throw away the shank ? Maybe I am overlooking something I don’t know. Anyways, I have been looking forward to this video all month long and now I can't wait for the finale, especially since I love both Nick and Trenton & Heath. Can't wait to see how you compare these two the red wings in depth. My only complaint on these is the color, the Red Wings Oro Legacy leather is too damn beautiful.
good point on the counter ... perhaps they will sell those soles with the counter option... design wise ... too much going on. RW is clean. goes with everything.
I agree with everything. Also half the point of a resole is to take it apart and put new cork in. Mind you I've never owned moc toes so I don't know how fast a human would chew through these soles, probably faster than vibram or even just leather. So maybe a full rework every couple of soles is all that is needed.
Yeah either use the same sole, or if the resole goes deeper to replace the cork layer, a shank can be put between the cork layer and a different outsole that doesnt have a shank built in. Or use no shank like the redwings. The shank in the outsole is interesting though, I never knew they did that. I don't think I've seen that in all the resole videos I've watched from Trenton and Heath or Brian the Bootmaker or Bedo's. The shank is usually separate and in between the outsole and midsole.
Nice Toaster censor. The poor guy just wanted to show off :)
Toaster is trying to start a fansonly page.
I just purchased these as a work boot based on this video. Break in was a little tough with the biggest pressure point being the top of my feet but are starting to get really comfortable. I conditioned these boots immediately upon getting them and they definitely drank in the conditioner which I think helped with break in. Thanks for the great review and looking forward to getting them resoled with a leather mid sole.
Hey there,
Mine just arrived today. So the vamp and instep were the tightest parts for you? Is that right? Those seem like the areas of concern for my pair, too.
Cheers,
Rob
@@robvega533 yes they were. Took about a week to 10 days and they started to wear in. They are really comfortable now better than expected for sure. I wear them usually 5 to 6 days a week depending on my work. I was putting shoe trees in them after wearing them during the break in process also.
@@DesertRox Thank you, Chris! I think I’m going to return mine. The instep and vamp just seem too tight to hope for enough loosening. I appreciate your response!
Cheers,
Rob
That's a damn good looking boot. Those may be my next boot purchase.
After watching this video and the Moctober videos probably a dozen times I bought the Perry's boot. Here's my 2 cents. I almost bought the Red Wings but after all the horror stories about the break in period I decided it just wasn't worth the pain and trouble; it appears the sole will wear out right about the time they feel comfortable and broke in. I felt confident buying this boot after watching this video series. I wear a size 13 in all my shoes so I called Whites and they confirmed to order a size 12D. I've been wearing the boots 2 -3 hours a day inside for the past 3 days and will say these boots do run quite large and the 12D even feels almost too big in part because my width is between a B & C. Had I been in the store I would have liked to try on an 11.5 for comparison. I changed out the insole with a thicker insole and it fits better, hopefully it won't stretch out and be too big. The quality and workmanship of this boot is very good, they are heavier than I thought they'd be. Appear to be very tough with the exception of the Vibram sole.
I would have liked to see Chippewas and the Carolinas, and Danner quarry
I agree, me too, I am interested in all 3.
@@jims1942 me also. Thorogood, Danner, and Chippewa all have a waterproof wedge sole. I guess the Danner quarry isn’t a moc toe but still a wedge since they’ve all been wedges
Love my pair of Perry's.....high quality inside and out.....due to the "last" that they use, def. Size "down" one full size of you decide to order.
