My dad has had severe foot issues most of my life. Plantar faciatis and whatnot. He was a 6'6 trucker that lumped all of his own loads, and was often made to do things two or three men would usually do thanks to his size (I'm talking about moving 300-500lbs of rolled linoleum flooring, by hiself). Anyway due to the issues with his feet he broke down and bought a pair of Whites boots back when we lived maybe 45 mins from Spokane (also where he worked) in the early 90's. He's worn almost them every day ever since, except for the month or so that he had sent them back to be completely rebuilt. And boy did the rebuild them. Almost everything newly constructed except for the tongue. He said these were the only boots he'd ever had that would keep him out if immense pain. These boots are absolutely the real deal.

In the 1950s, when my dad was working in the woods as a forester in Oregon, he wore a pair of White caulk boots, every day. Later, in the early '70s, when I was working fire protection for the Oregon State Forestry, Whites were the boots everyone wanted to have. It's not a matter of style, it's performance that counts. When your life and livelihood depend on your equipment, generations have found that Whites are the best.

White's is truly the best made off the shelf boot you can buy. Everyone else uses plyrib (gemming) which is only glued to the insole and then stitched to the upper and welt. I have a lot of respect for these guys. At under $1,000 these boots are a steal. I do this every day. So I know what it takes to hand welt a boot. Great video and collaboration.

@sackman1886

From everything I've heard is that hand sewn is more of a philosophical preference, and not necessarily any additional quality or reliability. Nicks and JK probably have just as high of durability, but hand sewn is that little extra something that maybe only the person wearing that boot knows about, and appreciates. If you're crazy into boots, then maybe it's that little extra nod to craftsmanship and made in America that you are after. I think it's very cool, but not necessarily a huge differentiator.

I also just ordered a new pair of Russell Back country hikers to see if the modern Russels are as good as the 30 year old Russells. I think they are but we will see.

I think the most important about arch support is when to use it and when to use more flat or barefoot shoes. I like arch support and thick soles for when I'm hiking or on rough terrain but for walking on the city it kills my feet. I have high arches, I used orthopedic insoles as a child and I really love walking barefoot or with flat footwear and also love arch support.

White's absolutely makes a nice pair of boots, but coming from someone who owns them all and lives in the same city they all operate out of, They've more or less gone down the same path as Wesco and have fallen a bit in terms of quality ever since they sold to Japan, especially considering their price. Now there are always pro's and con's, but regardless, Nick's Boots is still king when considering all aspects of ownership. The quality remains consistent far, above and beyond that of White's, by large. Beyond Nick's? Though the catalogue is much more limited, Jk's is unmatched.

First off, I really enjoy your channel and I love your collaboration boots. That being said, I live on a mule ranch in Eastern Idaho and typically I can't wear boots without serious lugs and also typically waterproof which means I can't wear any (that I've seen) of your collaboration boots unfortunately. When I first saw this boot I thought, "Hey, that's essentially a riding heel and sole!" and sure enough, you mention it could be used for that but there's a critical flaw in the boot for that purpose. You cannot wear a boot with those type of tie rivets in a stirrup. There's a reason cowboy boots are smooth in the front and that's because the top of the stirrup will drive those rivets into your shin and joint right at the top of your foot. You CAN get away with normal laces ( I typically wear Ariat Terrain lace up endurance boots for riding) but you can't have an extended rivet like these boots and ride in a saddle with them. They'll get hung up in the top of the stirrup and be driven into your foot and shin, I'd bet my life on it. On that note, since I'm a huge fan I'll extend an open invitation for you to come ride a mule yourself whenever you like and see what you think about that. Heck, maybe it'll inspire you to make a real collaboration riding boot =)

I own a pair of whites. Phenomenal boot. Simply phenomenal. One thing though, I can’t keep my heel from slipping up the back of the boots when I’m walking. The rubbing on the back of my heel is driving me crazy. Maybe someone could give some advice. Length and width of the boot is perfect. I’ve tried different lacing techniques. Nothing seems to work.

Call support, they could probably help. Maybe try thicker socks or remove ortho-footbed. I’m sure that’s a bummer being they’re such nice boots.
if nothing else works try softening the upper edge of your heel stiffener with water or leather oil and some squeezing. push your foot very firmly against the back of the boot before lacing it. then lace very tight above the instep. this way you get the tightest fit around your heel. you can also try different thicknesses of heel covers to adjust the hight in the back

There are only two things I don't like about these boots: 1. The heel is too high 2. I have big toes and wide feet, so I find the toe box a little too cramped

White’s are top 3. JK, White’s and Nick’s but out of the 3 there’s no best option. If it’s made in Spokane you’re definitely good

Ordering myself a custom JK soon that actually resembles these boots a lot funny enough

Anyone have a good recommendation on a leather conditioner that darkens some but not too dark?

Obenhauf's leather oil will darken a little. Their Heavy Duty LP Leather Preservative will darken more.
