I got a pair of Chippewa Arctic 50 that I bought in 2004 ,
It's 2024 so they are 20 years old , they still look brand new .
oh, just clean them anyway...lol. I'm not a hard working man like you. I own two pairs of Franks. I completely agree that they're second to none but it's great to see a hard working guy use a pair of Franks and show them for what they are...very tough and durable.
Just put my first order for Franks Boots last week. I can’t wait for them to arrive! I hope they’ll serve me as well as your commanders have served you.
You’re the reason I now know what a good boot consists of. I bought a pair of Carolina loggers with a vibram sole. Loved those boots! Not quite the $650 tag and the 100 hour break in like the Nick’s. But still around 40-50 hours and $260. I loved those boots😢
Yeah, Frank's is the brand I want.
I still love my Nick’s and my Franks
those Frank's have gone through A LOT but they are keeping up!
I just got a pair of Fire Commanders and hope they will last a few fire seasons
Just got a set of the Frank's Ground Pounder Boots - 10", Lace-To-Toe, V100 and Logger Heels. Hope I get as long out of them.
Those Irish Setters look like a pair of Wolverines I had...fell apart in about 6 months.
Try a pair of Wesco's, then do a comparison with your others.
Sadly, wait time is 15 months+.
I guess I’m crazy, I work in a fabrication/machine shop and I brush my boots off every day after work
Excellent Mr. showers. Appreciate the update. I’ve been following you for a long time found you searching for boot videos excellent content thank you for helping others.
Honestly they look pretty good for 4 years of wear and practically no maintenance.
I remember your unboxing of these and it made me get mine!!! Pretty much the same boot. Thanks for your video and I have had mine 4 years now as well brother!!
Give these boots some love, please!
Cleanest name in the
Cleanest name with the dirtiest boots
Military engineer here. Clean your boots dude, even if you don’t care about the cost of a new set its a matter of hygiene. With a pair of tanks like these you could probably get away with not even washing or oiling them for a year at a time, but it only takes maybe 2-3 minutes to brush them out after a week at work.
Don't put super glue on them, the grain side of the leather is probably still intact, just needs cleaned and oiled.
nice vids
thx for sharing those boots conditions
with better care (especially wax or oiling) seems the boots can last 2x longer since most of the problem only cracks
seems Frank's commander is very tough :P
how long ur Nick's last before rebuild?
Forgive my ignorance, I’m just genuinely curious as to why you don’t bother to clean em. If even just once or twice a year you’d get a lot more use out of the leather before rebuilding. Awesome video either way, love Franks!
I'm just lazy 😄 ive cleaned them maybe 2 times since I bought them.
@@NomadicINK haha nothing wrong with that, you obviously do a lot of work in em so once they’re off you’re not touching em 😂
@@NomadicINKand that’s why they’re cracked and ruined 👍🏼🤠
120 likes. Clean them boots 👢 😅😅
Can't believe this video got that many likes 😂 ok I'll do a boot cleaning
Absolutely love both pairs of my Frank's. To give you credit, they don't look as torn up after 4 years, as I'd think absolutely 0 maintenance would do. Did you dry brush them every now and then?
Ive done maybe 2 cleanings over the 4 years. But it's been a solid year and a half since ive given them any love.
These boots just hold up well!
I'll be cleaning them soon and we will see if I can make them look a little better 😄
Wow this is yours too lol dang been a while
Rebooting the channel
GAME !
I'll be going to WA in June for a friend's wedding.
I contacted Franks, JK, Nicks and Whites for to size me up.
In your opinion which do you prefer?
Get the Frank's!
@@NomadicINK good to know
Frank's is best!
Nick's has stopped doing the McKay-Lockstitch (Blake stitch) to save money. They also don't go as far with MTO as they did when Frank owned Nick's.
JK are slimmy & sneaky. Cut corners, and try to make their mistakes the customers problem. White's have missed a step since being bought by a Japanese company.

So i see over 100 likes. Cleaning video?
You could have conditioned them once or twice.
You could also drop your boots off at a cobbler who would be happy to clean and condition them for $$$ lol maybe once a year for each pair. Make it easy
That's a great idea thanks
