If you're going to do a British boot off, please include William Lennon Boots. Established in 1897, manufacturing in the same premises since 1904. Very unique made to order boots.
Man I would fucking love to see you cover more British brands... cutting them open etc. That would be so so useful. My personal British favourites (in no particular order): Loake Crockett & Jones Trickers Cheaney Barker
All the boots are named after villages in the ribble valley too, i think they’re based out of Whaley so they’ve named all their products after local places. Also fun fact about the ribble valley it’s where Tolkien lived whist his son was in school and where he wrote the lord of the rings.
I’d love to see some William Lennon boots reviewed. Made in the UK in the same factory for over 120 years by a team of just 8 craftspeople. It’s still run by the same family which has to be a rare thing these days.
I've actually got a pair of their jump boots being made up for me ATM. They're fantastic in terms of how much customisation is available. Definitely would love to see a review!
@smartugs1 @coff33guy34 after a tour of the factory I'd love to see Weston's take on William Lennon boots. Have the 78TC workboot and they are great value with brilliant service.
I confess my heart sank a little when I saw this video was about Lanx. Hitherto I’ve regarded them as a brand with clever marketing but without the products to match. When I first looked at them their products seemed to be cemented and Blake Stitched only. I’m glad to see they’ve graduated to Goodyear Welting and have some Stead leathers, but they still appear a bit flashy. If you want to look at the best of British shoemaking within reasonable budgets I’d suggest Crocket and Jones, Joseph Cheaney and Tricker’s. The Tricker’s Stow boot in acorn leather is probably among the best brogue country boots available. There are some cheaper brands like Barkers, Grenson and Loake, but some of their manufacturing is contracted out to India. There are also pricier options like Church’s, Edward Green, Gaziano and Girling, John Lobb, etc, but I don’t think most people’s budgets would run to them. If you do a series on British shoes I’d be particularly interested in seeing you tackle one of Grenson’s triple welt shoes. I’m baffled about what advantage they might offer.
I thought exactly the same when I saw these Lanx boots, just a clever marketing company. They certainly know how to charge, but if the quality is actually there then…. I wold second that RA should look at the Cheaney products
Talking of British boot makers you should check out William Lennon & Co. They make a work boot I really like, also some cool looking replica ww1 and ww2 boots. Wish you could get them to make a barefoot style boot!
I see Lanx more like a marketting company than a boot making company. The founder has a background in marketting. As far as I am aware the manufacturing is done by other UK and Europe based companies. You’ll notice that the Grindleton is thr exact same boot as Sanders Kelso/Cheltenham, but with a different leather and branding.
I get TONS of marketing from them. They're well priced so it'll be good to know what they're like - obviously confident if they sent Rose Anvil some shoes though.
@@bowendesign i owned a pair of their Bambers in distressed brown. Made in europe somewhere in believe. Quality was just ok- a stitch came loose on the toe cap and started to unravel- big stuck-in foam insole made my feet hot and the red paint rubbed off - orange stitch on the outsole was just for show, not functional - fibreboard underneath the insole instead of leather - leather had pull up but didnt seem or look that good quality after a while - Made in India Ive also owned their sneakers which were fine, but the heel didnt suit my feet very well and it felt like they were going to fall off constantly. If i were to buy anything from them, it would be the Grindleton as they are made by a reputable british manyfacturer- Sanders & Sanders
I tho k that’s correct as well. Their “warehouse” makes very small numbers. Everything else is made overseas (which they’re very quiet about) and a few things like their sneakers are made in Yorkshire and a few of their other shoes are made at other factories in Lancashire. They’re definitely making some good stuff but “Lanx” started off as some guy who did a gap year abroad and got some cheap shoes made overseas, they’ve come on a little since then but they have a long way to go before I drop nearly £400 on their boots.
British work boots developed very differently from the typical US PNW style. You should take a look at William Lennon. Especially their 78TC traditional work boot and their 268 Hill boot. Both of these are classic British work boots. The first would be exactly the sort worn by generations of miners, steel workers and industrial workers. The Hill boot is the sort worn by shepherds, hill farmers and foresters. Even more traditional would be their X10 fell boot - very unusual lace to toe with a sprung toe last which curves from heel to toe to give a "rocking" movement as you walk. Especially interesting walking up or down steep paths.
@@fishbiscuit2000 would also love to see Weston's opinion on William Lennon boots. I don't think there are any other British boots that are better value.
@@fishbiscuit2000 I have a pair of William Lennon field boots to a custom spec. I find the semi sprung last great for uphill, a little disconcerting going down steep slopes, especially before I got more used to them. Fantastic quality boots though.
Id love to see you compare some British made boots and cut them apart. Definitely Goral, grenson, william lennon, dog leap, trickers, cheaney and Lanx would be good to do an in depth comparison of
9:30 I'd love to see you look at Altberg. Given you ride a Harley, you ought to check out their Hogg All Weather Motorcycle Touring Boot but they are known for their military and hiking boots too.
I got a pair of shoes for my wife from Lanx - they looked good on the website, and also looked good on, but on closer inspection and after a little bit of wear the quality wasn't great - loose stitching, and they were slightly misshapen. Their customer services were very good and they replaced the first pair, but the replacements weren't a lot better. The refund was made with no issues. They are local to me and I genuinely wish them well, but I think I'll give the company a while to 'settle in'. The Grindleton looks good, though. Maybe they should stick to boots.
A British brand that would be interesting to see on the channel is Alt-Berg. They are a hiking boot company, so probably not a candidate for the great British boot-off as they don't make any dress boots at all. However their hiking boots are hand made in the UK.
Been with your channel since the old DM videos, really surprised you haven’t covered Trickers yet. They’re basically THE quintessential English country boot. I own a pair and they are HEAVY duty, more so than my red wings
@@pbmc_ I followed their size guide and ended up going TTS. With thick socks they work very well, thin socks size down half a size and you should be good 👍
As someone who lives in the UK, thank you so much for doing this! I want to support local companies, but sometimes "Made in England" should be read as a warning label! I am interested in what you think about the companies Dogleap Boots and William Lennon in particular. They seem nice, but I'll never pull the trigger on something with so few reviews.
I can also vouch for William Lennon. I have a pair of custom field boots. They are superb and worth every penny. What put me off Lanx was that they only make a selection of their range in the UK, some are made abroad, I think Portugal but not 100% sure of that.
I’ve recently bought the LANX Ancoats sneakers. Compared to Thursday, I think Lanx are way better made and don’t cost much more. They’re also made about 20 miles away from my house which is awesome!!
Loake make some of their boots in England and some in India. The Loake Bedale is a lively brogue boot made in England. That should be on a British boot off if you do endvup doing one.
One I haven't seen mentioned at all is dog leap boots. Another made in the UK small scale boot maker. Honestly as someone into UK made boots, I'm not sold on LANX
Great to see some Lanx boots! I’d certainly love to see a British boot comparison video. 😁👍 Tricker’s Stow and the Crockett and Jones Islay are just two of many great British boots I’d recommend.
A double action OTF knife can't really hurt you much because once there is enough for it will clutch. You would need a single action to puncture a hand.
I'm a big cheaney fan, i've got brogues that are 20 years old and still going. Bought some grenson recently and they seem nice so far. I don't think the leather is as good as Cheaney. Be interesting to see differences between a Cheaney v Churches as Churches own Cheaney. Love the channel.
awesome vid! living in England I have been getting advertisements for Lanx quite a bit but was waiting for a video like this. In the meantime I came across the og, Tricker's Stow boot who I believe pioneered or at least popularized the brogued boot style. I 100% would love to see a "Great British Boot Off" just like the MITUSAs- also eventually an olympic style thing- mostly just to see PNW boots excel in terms of toughness, but it would be an interesting showdown. and yeah I am sure no one boot "fits all" as they say.
Nice video and beautiful boots! This number of boots could have used 30+ minutes though. I liked when this channel had almost exclusively looong nerdy videos. ❤
Also I'd love to see an evaluation of the CF Stead Leathers- I know Grant Stone does the Chelsea's with the waxy commander leather in an amazing red brown
Love to see your take on crocket and jones and trickers. After my aldens fell apart i went to solid pnw boots but still need a wuaility dressier boot. Biught sone crockett and jones islay boots and so far they seem better than the aldens. Will see how they work long term.
William Lennon, Trickers, Crockett and Jones, Cheaneys, Edward Green ect. so many bootmakers. Now alot of these are just like Alden, they are dress or country boots which have a very different criteria than work boots. Please be fair as well.
Id really love to hear your opinion on Crockett & Jones. Specifically the coniston in the black roughout suede. Very similar appearance to the Thursday captain boot in the matte black... But over the 3x times the price. Love to see a comparison between the two.
I have the ct9cket and jones islay boot and it's far better than Thursday boots (at least what they were making years ago). I'd say you are paying a bit for the name but if you search around you can get them for about 650 us. Bodileys is where I hot mine and I'm going yo get a coniston fron them as well. I think if quality is all you're after you can get sone grant stone or Parkhurst boots or tlb mallorca boots and save a few hundred bucks. Quality construction and workmanship probably close enough. Crocket and jones does have access to sone premium leather but those others make some damn fine boots. I'm sure there are others but I can't try all the boots. Least not yet :)
Ok I really love the patina that their Taskers come in. Shame some are cemented (but advertised as restorable). That also looks like a rugby shirt style. Also brogued, not broguen :)
You laced them wrong bro! You gotta learn how to lace like the brits do! There's an interesting reason for why they lace their boots different too. I just got some trickers when I was there a couple months ago. Trickers are amazing!!!! I've been waiting for your review on the stow boots from them. Thanks for the good content!
I think you should, not necessarily “tear apart” but look at the technology that goes into, for example “Dr Sholles” type insoles. Yeah I can buy them at CVS or Walgreens for like $20 -$25…. I want a state of the art insole. Literally I’d pay like $150-$200? Something like that. I can’t be alone. Someone needs to create an insole that’s like maybe what, like 5 millimeters more roomy? You’d need to first research the whole “gel” insole. Understand the chemical make up of it… are they skimping out on chemicals or materials? How much you wanna bet that if you went throughout the insole, reversed engineered it…. But used higher quality things like the better gel and leather and all the materials… people pay like, at most, $20 for insoles at like CVS. You and your team came out with an insole that literally destroys all comers with materials and function. I’d HAPPILY pay like $200+ bucks for it. Not joking. I know you have your insoles.. and they seem cool….. but I want something extreme I am willing to pay for it.
Hmmm, I don't really get what you're trying to imply with the title of this video - there are many English boot companies that are 'actually' made in England, most of them of a much higher quality that these blake stitched & rather ugly examples.

I think you're going to get a lot of comments like this from us Brits but I would also love to see some reviews of British, made in England brands.

I love mine.
How about William Lenon of Derbyshire.
I'd like to see a teardown of British made Loakes😊

'Crockett and Jones' and Trickers are my favourite english made boots
Yea these are the brands I think of when I think of British shoe/boot makers.
I like my crocket and jones so far. Will be trying trickers in the future. Far better than my aldens
Loake makes a great boot too. All the northampton brands (generally) are great.
@@claytonberg721 Shoutout to Grenson.
Loake has the same quality for half the price!

William Lennon are 100% worth the money. Second pair in production for me.

Pretty sure that Sanders makes the Grindleton
Do more British brands. Grenson, loake, herring. It seems some are partially made in India but quality seems fairly top notch.
Man…the kershaw ad sport and the insole commercial. This dude is a dyed-in-the-wool born capitalist
Have a look at Grensons. They make some lovely boots. Made in England. They would be great for your great british boot off.

I don't necessarily want you to destroy boots. That's just the price to know what's inside...
Bin lookin at these for while now some nice stuff they doin
I would say it’s an English Company… as would peeps from Scotland, Wales and Ireland… hope the boots are comfy!
Trickers boots. The king's boot supplier
you should try the Crockett & Jones Coniston In Scotchgrain, amazing boots in my opinion
Would love to see review of a Heaney boots!
Wow he actually said Lancashire properly
The company is based in the county of Lancashire which is often abbreviated to Lancs. The company's name seems to be a play on this.
For British boot off, of course Tricker's should be there
That tasker looks like a rambler leather on one of the grain side. It’s a shrunken leather, so you see all those veins.
Those Chelsea boots look pretty nice with that outsole ❤
That Brogue would be $485. Nice looking boot.
The white one is the rugby shirt BTW
Nice video and beautiful boots! This number of boots could have used 30+ minutes though. I liked when this channel had almost exclusively looong nerdy videos. ❤
I’ve been waiting so long for this 😊
I Like these Styles the Grindleton Especially & the prices Compared to But NW, Nicks is Closer to me the Shipping must be like $50
Do an English boot off please 🙏🙏
If you do a big british boot off, look into K shoes which have a great history!
I like my Grant Stones brass boots but my Loakes Hebdens fit and feel are joy inducing 😀
Just bought a pair of Lanx then i came across this video.
Also I'd love to see an evaluation of the CF Stead Leathers- I know Grant Stone does the Chelsea's with the waxy commander leather in an amazing red brown
Ow man I would love a England or Europe boot off. Loake 1880 makes some beautiful boots
Eventually a Boot World Cup would be a really dope idea 👀
Some handsome boots from Lanx, if I had a job or place to wear them, they would be high on my list.
I'm definitely planning on trying the boot breakers. And dude. You should come to Mondegreen.
Would love to see a UK boot off
Yes! Get some Trickers brogue Country boots! 💙
Will you ever review the Trickers Stow ?
Chelsea boots are a very British boot style too. I like those.
The second boot I mean. I’m not as crazy about the fourth boot.
Yes please!! Do English boot shoe-off!
Ads within an ad. Great work.
Love to see your take on crocket and jones and trickers. After my aldens fell apart i went to solid pnw boots but still need a wuaility dressier boot. Biught sone crockett and jones islay boots and so far they seem better than the aldens. Will see how they work long term.
Lanx are OK but, better when on sale. I'd be loathe to pay full price for their stuff. I have one pair, would consider others at the right price
Those brogues are beautiful.
My coworker put my live wire against his leg and pushed the switch. It went around a quarter inch into his leg and he bled a lot.
William Lennon, Trickers, Crockett and Jones, Cheaneys, Edward Green ect. so many bootmakers. Now alot of these are just like Alden, they are dress or country boots which have a very different criteria than work boots. Please be fair as well.
finally you did the lanx :)
and yeah do the british boots comparison
I've been wanting to get some Chelsea boots just so I can have a more dress boot that I can slip on.
Please do a TRICKERS video and if you can wait for them get some WILLIAM LENNON

No comparison, C and J and Trickers are in a different league quality wise

These definitely look like $200 boots. Over-finished leather, leatherboard heel stack, etc. Don't particularly need to see them cut in half

Got a pair of their Indian boots and just as good quality and re solable too .
But does it shape to the shape of your shape?
By “they’re spacey” I don’t mean Kevin right? 😂
These seem pretty bad for over $200 if you’re comparing to other brands in that price range. Thursday dominates that price range.
