The fact that there are still people working like this in American—for some reason—gives me hope for the future. That’s surprising too because I work in the trades and see guys busting it everyday. But seeing craftsmen and craftswomen making high quality products does my heart good.
-
To All you Quality Boot makers out there. THANK YOU From the bottom of my Heart.
-
Very few companies operate like this nowadays using handcrafted talent and quality materials. Never heard of this company before but I'm a fan now. Good stuff!
-
These are such fantastically well made boots. The extent of craftsmanship is mind boggling.
-
I was introduced to these boots when I began Wildland Fire Fighting. Nick's and Whites were the only boots to survive the job. Incredible craftsmanship and customization.
-
Honestly what really impressed me was seeing younger craftsman making these boots. I know these are great boots and I’m glad this craft is being handled by these obviously well trained people.
-
I'm stunned at the amount of work that goes into making these boots. Truly shocking!
-
After watching this video, I will never complain about paying over $100 for a pair of work boots. For some reason I thought these boots were made mostly by machines, I am glad that we still have skilled people who are making products like this. Thank you 👍👍
-
I ended up here looking for 100% American made work boots. What I have found is just that. I saved your website in my notepad for if and when I can save enough money for a pair. Thanks for conserving and maintaining true American craftsmanship that has all but disappeared. Love the boots brother.

This is some awesome vids, I myself had worked in a shoe repair shop and I believe these are some good well-made though boots, I had repaired some soles, heels, welts, did some foxing, and did a lot of restitching restoring work boots and other shoes. I loved that job but now I found a new trade as being a lumber jack. I don't mind wearing one of these work boots for my type of work now. keep up the good work and keep them new vids coming, I love it!!!
-
Awesome. I appreciate the intricacies, the precision, speed and attention to detail we mortals can only imagine. Bravo!!
-
Love seeing the tooling and the jigs, the techniques, the close tolerances repeated mostly by eye at speed, NOW that is skill resulting form hundreds of years of experience and MUST be preserved. Robot's cant do this, they can't put love and soul into anything they do or feel pride and love for their work and contribution to the world, but these great craftsmen can.
-
Repetition leads to efficiency, But the skill and dedication your employee's demonstrate in the building of your product offering is incredible and is nothing short of an art form. They represent what is great in the true American craftsmen's that are left in this country!
-
Fantastic craftsmanship. No other words are needed.
-
Fantastic work from start to finish, appreciate all the hard work to everyone
-

You are very good. Don't know how to use good words, good ideas to give you to express your talent, ingenuity, thoroughness, too small details that you have done so easily....Very admirable.. .!!! GREAT.
