What does /fashion/ think of the guy’s channel and what he does? He talks a lot about growing up on a farm and wearing Carhartt stuff and bear hunting but he never seems to do anything at his hipster-looking workshop but sell some cheesy leather goods that a boy scout could stitch together. I like seeing the boots cut in half, but his entire persona is so cringe that it kinda ruins things for me.
I’ve always wanted his farmer cock inside me no cap
Only if you’re full-grain PNW leather will he fill you with his Snoseal, Anon.
just fast forward to the cut in half sections of the vid
dude got hecked by some random cp nerd and has no credibility now
nah he’s good and in the end he’s right. common cucks are overpriced
What happened?
Every point is his video was disproved, so naturally rose anvil dickriders are seething
where was it disproved? I was considering buying CPs but his video made them look like bad leather.
On reddit of all places.
Just look up Rose Anvil common projects reddit. Big thread about it. Rose Anvil says they (the redditor) were right.
Why dont you link it, wouldn’t want to get the wrong one thats totally not the one you are talking about you know.

This. Really highlights how the guy has no idea what the heck he’s talking about and just goes all-in regarding Saddleback’s "grains," too.

Newfag
how do you fit so much seethe in two sentences
What happened?
I don’t care one way or another about common project cringe. I only know that he supposedly shilled for their competitor who gave him sponsorship cash for his channel. That is a minor sin compared to the sum total of his insufferable persona.
Its not shilling if its the truth and he gives proof, he cut them both in half one was superior deal with it. Common projects have always been shit but loved by this board
I don’t own any leather sneakers and don’t give a heck about CP drama. I care about the fact that this gay somehow thinks he knows what leather is when he just reads what Danner and Nicks spoonfeed him about grain patterns.
You stupid piece of shit, he gets info straight from the hecking tanneries you dipshit he talks about it and has these little swatches they send him about the leathers they sell etc you dont know shit about heck you just mad stupid and lazy
Sounds like a sellout mouthpiece to me. No different than Carl Murawski and Carhartt.
This is so embarrassing, you should be ashamed of yourself for spewing such bullshit
>Weston literally does this with Saddleback
dicksux
If you knew anything you would know that that reddit stupid got blown out if the hecking water
Try again nerd, or are you too busy with rose anvil cock in your mouth?
go back
Rose anvil is as reddit as it gets kiddo
So are CPs, gay.
While true, this changes literally nothing about the gayry of RA.
Plebbit co-opted CPs from /fashion/
it means nothing tbh. many things are reddit tier and it originated in LULZ
the opposite is true.
he cut open a pair of overpriced sneakers and naturally sneakerheads are mad af
This can be taken multiple ways lmao
Lol he said while providing 0 proof.
Literally impossible. The thickness of the leather he measured on camera was wrong? Theyre harder to tear apart than the twink made it seem? Was he completley wrong about how the leather used is tanned? Lmfao get hecked losers
Destroying historical boots makes me rage inside.
Him cutting open the WW2 boots sucked. It also reminded me how terribly most shoes are made nowadays.

Ya mum was a bit of alright last night m8, if you think a greasy hipster with a paedo tache isn’t wrong you should have a word with yourself m8
>if you think a greasy hipster with a paedo tache isn’t wrong
destroying old boots isn’t wrong*, heck sake.
they were of no particular historical interest
think of it like steve.
now that people can easily see what’s in there – there will be less people cutting into them.
Don’t you hecking dare mention steve1989 (pbuh) in the same thread as Rose Anvil without putting respect on his name. Weston Kay wishes he could be Steve.
I wish I could be Steve too.
that last video with the nicks tactical boots was a obvious shill
This. What did you think of that shitty cut-in-half results, too?
The new tac boots from Nick’s are 500$+ despite being full of rubber and foam while the other boots are 100% leather.
Rose Anvil sucked off Nick’s so hard in that video the CEO is still feeling the post-nut tingle.
Yeh I actually kinda liked the look of them at first the 365 stitch looks odd though I thought they were gonna be like the next slim paramemes but that video turned me off them
They look like some of the Corcoran options but more than double the price. Same insides though. Imagine paying as much for the Nicks tac boot as a full-leather boot when it has less than half the leather of the PNW workwear lmao
It’s obvious they somehow got their hands on a bunch of cheap rubber and wanna rought people out of their money heck nicks
It’s even worse than that. It’s like a sneaker in there with the foam between the rubber! Over 500$ for it! What the heck, Nicks?
Nicks admits the tacs are rubber boots
Rose Anvil immediately goes into apologia mode for Nicks tac boot is the point, even thought they cost the same as an all-leather boot. Also, it’s worse than just rubber. It’s rubber and FOAM. Cheapest material cost possible for a boot, yet costs the same as an all-leather boot? Who the heck is paying over 500$ for that?
I see.
Hes just a fanboy.
At least hes giving hard facts instead of wearing them around for a bit like the other fa youtube dipshits who just spit their ignorant opinions feels so good yeah of feels feels, heck your feelings and what you think tell me objectively why this boot is better is it made of wish shit or solid.
>like the other fa youtube dipshits who just spit their ignorant opinions feels so good yeah of feels feels, heck your feelings and what you think tell me objectively why this boot is better is it made of wish shit or solid.
I didn’t know we were also bashing Carl Murawski in this thread.
Even if you hate him it’s good that he cuts shoes in half. It’s hard to fake that
Literally anyone can do that. Do you think it’s a skill to band saw a leather boot in two?
for some of the stupids on here, yes.
so what? Who else does it?
Have you even hecking looked? Lmao
who does it?
Hurrr anyone can do that, is what every talentless do nothing shit heck loser always says when they see a nice painting or a picture, a caricature design etc. You cut some shit in half and try to talk about it, you with your infinite ignorance.
A hipster gay who cuts hipster gay boots in half so hipster gays can spend 500 bucks from their office jobs to buy heck ugly boots for their workwear larp.
heck off with this cringe
>A hipster gay who cuts hipster gay boots in half so hipster gays can spend 500 bucks from their office jobs to buy heck ugly boots for their workwear larp.
Based
why do you seethe?
Because these people are despicable.
Have you ever talked to a hipster?
Especially with sneakers, being autistic about the quality is nothing but a huge larp in itself.
Trying to justify to yourself why it’s worth it buying boots for 500 to walk to the grocery store in a big city. Cmon fella.
It would be the more logical option to just buy something like cps or whatever based on how you like the look but these people are literally vain as heck but don’t want to come off as such and do mind boggling confirmation bias artistry to keep them sane.
>buying cps is totally capitalistic bro but me? I buy my moc toe boots handmade by xy OH NO don’t spill craft beer over them I just did seven wax coatings 🙁
>Trying to justify to yourself why it’s worth it buying boots for 500 to walk to the grocery store in a big city.
Feels like this is also calling out Stridewise.
>reaction formation
Information is information facts are facts no matter where they come from, deal with it pussy cry harder. I’ll be buying some shit thats worth it and not thinking twice due to some of these cut in half videos. heck you.
>a tranny cuts boots in half to show you the insides
I can appreciate the slice while still hating the gayry.
His videos could literally be 8 minutes shorter, i always skip to the bit where he cuts them in half.
Boots are uncomfortable as shit, don’t know why people venerate them so much.
cheap boots are uncomfortable as shit
This.
Most boots are not fun to wear. I had a pair of Nicks. They did a shit job fitting me.
>buying nigs instead of Whites
you get what you deserved
I have a serious worry about custom-fit boots because of how bad Nicks did. I don’t think I can afford to keep spending hecking half a grand for boots that still are too narrow in the toes and wide in the heel.
if it ain’t Whites it ain’t gonna fit right
What model do you have of whites?
2 semi dress, 2 bounty hunters 1 smokejumper
Nice. I have a bit of an issue with my feet. They are long and wide at the front because I wear those barefoot style flat shoes a lot. I have a strong natural arch, too. I don’t think I can fit inside of most boots because I have the natural foot shape. I currently use Jim Green boots (Razorbacks) because they have the most toe room I’ve ever experienced.
Do you have any suggestions about Whites if they could accommodate? I am thinking about using boots more and would like something better than my Jim Green boots if possible.
if you’re after toe room I don’t think you can beat the 4811, it’s snugger in the heel but generous in the toe box with a lot of vertical clearance.
One thing I would recommend is going with an unstructured toe cause having a plastic toe box is just a bad time for me and unstructured looks a lot better with less of the clown toe look
I am 5′ 10.5" without shoes (barefoot on floor) with a size 11.5 barefoot shoe. Keep in mind my forefoot is wide and my heel is normal because of my stride over the years.
What size do you think would work for me with Whites?
no clue bro, best if you contact them
FYI Baker’s is where I got all my Whites from. Kyle is a sizing expert, and you can even send in foot tracings
That sounds great. I think I’ll do that. Thanks for the recommendation.
I had a nightmare experience with Nicks. Fit me for a boot that looked like ass when it came, weird heel design, and didn’t fit at all. Took 18 months to get to me. I sent in a tracing of my foot and everything. Even gave me a tryon boot. The tryon fit BETTER than the custom! What the heck?!
IDK if you’re still around, but do you have more suggestions about the best last for hiking? I wonder if the NW last is really all it’s cracked up to be compared to some of the others.
sorry bud i only got experience with the 4811 and the 55 last. I would imagine if the 4811 is good enough for parachute firefighters it’s good enough for whatever hiking you got in mind
Hey, were you the guy I was talking with a few days ago about Bakers?
yes
Just wanted to let you know I put an order in for some shoes with them. Custom Whites. Hope they do better than Nicks.
different anon but i own 2 pairs of whites, 2 pairs of red wings and some aldens and the whites are in a whole different tier than the others. they really are incredible boots
you’ll be satisfied my dude, trust me
Nice what model and what leather?
Wesco is your solution, I think it’s odd the ironic moustache has not reviewed them
that moustache is regal
Yeezys are better than any of the meme leather shit he shills on his channel
His collab with Nicks sealed his fate as a shill for them forever. Now, as their boots go down in quality, he will be obliged to give them good reviews.
Nicks is really rubbing me the wrong way. Their Thursday Boots tier shill campaign is getting old. Everyone and their dog has done a Nicks """review""" where they "totally weren’t paid to say these things, trust me guise". Rose Anvil, Stridewise, Trenton and Heath, Cobbler and Son, there’s more I don’t care enough to remember.
And every single one seems fake and forced, but "we promise we aren’t getting paid, please believe us".
If it ain’t Whites it ain’t right
Stridewise barely even wears his shoes and boots around.
Walking around for a week in shoes on paved street in a bugman city? THAT’S your review process?
I have been following Stridewise since the very beginning of his channel. It was cool in the beginning when he didn’t have a huge rotation of boots so everything he reviewed he wore for a significant amount of time
As his channel grew and people started sending him free shit and stuff to review it got the point where he wears something for a week then reviews it to move to the next thing
his denim reviews were good too until the same thing happened. got too much to add to the rotation
Again though, what you say is correct, but all he does is walk about in them through the city on clean (well, for a city at least) roads. All of his PNW boots are used for hecking streetwalks. How is that a review???
yeah, he’s the quintessential reddit bugman in that regard. buying super expensive boots to baby them as he wears them to the office and back
Hence why he and Rose Anvil go hand-in-hand.
when i first watched the video they did together i swore they were gay for each other
Rose Anvil does have the face structure for it and has never once been seen with a woman or referencing one in any romantic or relationship light, so….
apparently stridewise has a "gf" but also, no one has ever seen or heard her
Rose does mechanic shit, rides a chopper, did wildland firefighting. He has better idea about boots and leather in general. Stride has never gotten a callous on his hands, he doesnt know heck all about leather but he can quote word for word online product descriptions.
Whites are made in the same chink factory as thursday. You get mad at people shilling and then shill your own trash
WRONG
>all those nails getting stored in his mouth
Nice boots and skill, but the dude’s a stupid. Surely there’s something magnetic or better than your hecking mouth. One hiccup or sneeze or wrong intake of air and it’s an emergency room visit to get the nails out of your stomach before they puncture your guts. I’ve seen too many carpenters do this shit and get hecking burned by it. Even tiny finishing nails are no joke.
If my son had a tendency to walk around in circles in the street rather than walk straight across, then yes. Hence why he’s stupid for filling his mouth with a bunch of little finishing nails.
>(You)
since that’s all you want, there, now heck off
How hecking stupid can you be for thinking Whites are made in Asia?
>Whites are made in the same chink factory as thursday
Posts like this are so tiresome
he’s just a larping hipster who makes sponsor-of-the-day clickbait videos
he has no credibility and he takes himself too seriously anyway
I was always saying CP was overpriced faux lux and I like him for proving it right.
Weston Kay is a hecking stupid name.
dumb facial hair
reviews yeezys too often as if ye sycophants care about quality
pretty based how he tarnishes the reputation of established brands
>pretty based how he tarnishes the reputation of established brands
I don’t think that the brand sycophants are going to care if RA cuts open another gay Carhartt boot to only find plastic and foam.
His channel is way too big for what he does. Kinda pathetic.
it’s a channel completely driven by making clickbait for reddit bugmen. not surprised it’s as big as it is tbh
I like him but cant help but feel like he is a huge sell out, hesitating to critique shoes sent to him by companies to review, and shilling hecking raid shadow legends. And he does have a "leather shop" but they only make the most basic shit like wallets and keychains made from scraps of leftover leather. His store is honestly incriminating
THANK YOU.
Came here just to say this, and then I saw this post. I can’t believe that people take him seriously. He makes little knickknacks that are clearly from scraps of leather that he bought just to play with and then realized that making shoes and boots is hard. So, his hipster brain just goes "uhhh, belts and keychains?" and he doesn’t even make those look interesting. Those "accessories" are featureless shapes with zero meaning. What the heck are those? Hundreds of dollars for strips of leather "camera holsters?" What the hell?
I can’t believe how much good will and "knowledge" cred is imparted to this guy just because he knows how to push a boot through a bandsaw.
Not everyone has talent and creativity.
Some people are just attractive on camera.
Doesn’t mean they’re smart.
Seethe, misrepresent, cope and dialate.
He makes leather clothing hangers or some shit? What the heck is this
Because he doesnt review video games dumbass, it has nothing to do with shit. He reviews shoes amd boots and thats where he needs to stay impartial
hi weston
Still not as bad as Carl Murawski who has an entire made up fake backstory of trade jobs he totally definitely worked at
His video where he cut open a pair of Whites and Nicks and then said all that "the Nicks has one more row of stitches, these are definitely the better workboot" nonsense was a big moment for me where I realized i was wasting all my time and money on boots and that boots were hecking boots, splitting hairs and measuring completely stupid things was stupid
It would be nice to have another Carl Murawski thread. Did you see his last video?
Dude minted hecking CHALLENGE COINS for his patreons. All 8 of them lmaoooooooo
i remember that thread and took part in it. god carl is such a raging gay
Link to an archive of it?
I don’t know who that is, but his beardstache is epic.
Seething zoomers who can’t grow good facial hair are mad he can heck a lot more women than them
Speaking of, is there a /fashion/ archive that can be recommended like tbharchive?
I see it more as entertaiment just cuz i actually dont care about shitty quality when i barely buy footwear in general, but his chanel at his best is actually with sneakers except he ruins it with his exfirefighter, hipster heritage boot fetish and wants mcdonalds looking sneakers to be fireproof
His most redeemind quality is just cutting stuff in half, something kinda easy that surprisingly noone is doing
i love watching things get made, and made properly. so seeing boots get cut in half and seeing the layers and everything is cool.
i don’t take is seriously and don’t buy into the reddit bugman shit, i just like seeing good craftsmanship
