your flame panda pair is insane, flame panda right now is what 2-3 years waiting time, plus xbxs boots and iron boots that I know, high end chinese boot is really taking control of the scene.

I believe bakers boots has a connection with flame panda if you want to look there. They also have a great “final few” section where you can get some good discounts on boots that were sent back or didn’t sell.

Great video as always Manny. I've heard great stuff about flame panda and Grantstone and I think we can agree that there really isn't any correction between quality and geographic location. Love to see some of these companies give Redwing and Wolverine a run for their money and the urgent need for them to upgrade their products to meet international standards today.

My brother!!! Excellent words. Hope domestic brands to catch up and upgrade their products. I agree that wolverine, redwing, thorogood, Carolina ,etc ... Not only by "made in usa" are at the level of international brands. Time's over

Your are talking about Wolverine, Red Wing but those are $300 entry level boots. These flame panda are build like Whites, Nicks boots, Wesco etc. They are also priced higher more like high end US brands. Do these Flame panda /Grantstone compare in quality to Whites, Nicks etc? I see they are nice looking and neatly stitched but the leather doesn’t look so good. A bit dry and stiff, creases a lot and the thickness?

@@willempasman827 hey Williem !! Thanks for passing by and I this boots are different construction. The stiffness is due to horserump leather, not a common leather in the USA. Is firm but no imposible to wear. I use thosr black boots 8-10 hrs no problem. In regards the construction those are different from PNW, more elegants and with better precision on execution. Nicks have flat welt and those are handwelt, different stiles, at the end is what you like more. I can say that those Chinese boots will last a lot of years due to quality materials and construction skills. Same with PNW. Price? GS is cheaper than PNW and have superior execution quality, different construction. Pandas are higher price than PNW, different leathers and construction too. PNW is a very different animal than those more casual boots

Like those dunes's. I picked up a pair of "B grade" brass boots in black cxl. ($225) I see nothing on these that I haven't seen on 1st's of other boots. They are very roomy. Due to the limited sizing they are a bit on the big side for me. Put in an insert and wear a med-thicker sock. Can see wearing these a lot during the winter months.

I love wedge soles too, so comfortable and they look great. I have these Grand Stone Brass Boots too but in the black chromexcel and the saddle tan leather for casual use with the wedge soles and they are super comfortable. Highly recommended them. Not a big fan of the lug style sole anymore. They look great but too hard and uncomfortable.

Let me tell you that I agree with you 100%. Had to sell my brass dume due to sizing, man the front is quite long! I just bought a pair in bronze RO and downsize 1.5 from my brannock! I had never done that ! I'm 9EE and the Dune were 8EE still a bit large, so I'm hoping the 7.5 will work for me this time. Incredible good quality and price

not sure what happens, I blame the EEE sizing that makes the length feels large, hope the 7.5 EEE fits me well, actually the wide portion in 8 EEE fits perfect is the length the problem. Who knows! @@jdsvtx
