Love this video. A good friend from England gave me a pair of Crockett and Jones shoe’s recently and honestly they are truly great shoes they are a plain toe derby in chocolate suede and even though in the USA they are a lot of money the quality is well worth it I’d see myself wearing these for years as a go to shoe.

Being in the UK, I have exposure to many makers here and also have an interest in makers across Europe and Asia. I can honestly say the Islay boot is a proper boot at a relatively reasonable price. I feel 2 inches taller every time I wear them but yet you can walk miles in them. Dress them down in hemmed jeans or with flannels over them

I had the pleasure of visiting their factory shop in Northampton, and even their seconds are excellent quality, got a pair of Westfield burnished calf half-brogue oxfords for £230 when the normal price is £540, excellent deal and they're so well fitting, definitely worth the price and with some care will last me for years. A pair of Islay boots is absolutely on the list for future purchases.

This isn't a comment about this particular video. I was watching your channel and seeing the various collaboration videos you do. I am sure you are aware of Kirby Allison's You tube channel and how he started out making hangers for jackets, because he couldn't find good hangers for tailored jackets. Have you ever thought of making boot trees. I have a few pair of boots, and when I search for boot trees the options are quite limited. If you had a great boot tree design, I am sure with your brand and audience it would do well. Just an Idea. On the flip side, maybe you have found great boot trees. I would love to see a video about the best boot trees.

I own a couple of pairs of C&J boots and they are very high quality. However, it is a lot of money to gain only a little over less expensive brands and given footwear (and especially boots) has to put up with a lot of abuse having neater stitching or finer finishing rapidly becomes irrelevant unless you are babying them. Otherwise they are still going to be looking beaten up in a few years and they will not last any longer than cheaper footwear.

I'm gonna go ahead and say you don't know what you're talking about. American brand work boots in full leather also cost in the ranges of 600-800$. Whites, wescos, franks to name three. The difference between these 800$ English boots and those 800$ American boots is that in the English ones you'll have a pair that can be both worn to work and out on a date. No amount of polish and shining could make those PNW boots look as pretty as these. Just because they look fashionable does not mean that they are not highly functional for work and getting dirty. The islay boot as basically a boot for shit weather anyways. It just looks nice when sloshing around in the muddy puddles. Bonus.
