Curating the Collection Continues. Another boot goes on the sale pile, but why? Is Ego the Enemy?

Описание: In this video, I’m continuing my boot collection curation series—breaking down why certain pairs stay and why others get voted off the island.

On the table today:
Grant Stone Brass Boot (Natural Waxed Flesh, Commando Sole) vs. Truman 79 Last Java Waxed Flesh Boot.

This isn’t a specs video. No charts. No measurements. Just real-world wear, long-term ownership thoughts, and how these boots actually fit into my rotation.

I talk about:
Fit and comfort of Grant Stone’s Floyd last
Waxed flesh durability and winter performance
Build quality, lining, and finishing differences
Why lug/commando soles matter in snow and ice
Overbuying the same boot in different leathers (we’ve all done it)
Why one boot earns its place—and the other gets listed for sale
I also get into the uncomfortable but necessary conversations around:
Fit & finish vs. country of origin
Ego, customer service, and brand behavior
Why “Made in USA” alone isn’t enough
What actually keeps a boot in long-term rotation
At the end of the day, this is about fit, finish, quality, and how a boot works with the way I dress and live—not hype, not flags, not fanboyism.
One pair stays. One pair goes.
The Truman is heading to Depop, and the Grant Stone Brass Boot earns its spot.
Boots come in. Boots go out.
That’s how collection reduction actually works.
Stay warm. Stay blessed. 👢
