How Its Made - American Bison Leather - Forefront Start to Finish | JK Boots
Get the JK Bison Forefront → www.jkboots.com/products/the-...
The complete mesmerizing process of hand-building one of our favorite boots around the workshop!
The effortless comfort of the Bison Forefront comes from long hrs in the workshop carefully sewing, glueing, and nailing together the highest quality materials together. The magnificent Bison leather moves easily with our felxi-design, and quickly molds to your feet, eliminating any sense of a break-in process. Couple this with the cloud-like wedge sole, and you won't want to take them off.

Those boots look like they will last forever. Beautifully done.
I ordered a pair from Germany, waited for a week, and boy! they are awesome! light and very comfortable. I decided to call up this video to see how they are made..worth the price I paid for them! highly recommended!👌

I find this strangely satisfying to watch. During a time where it seems to be more about how cheap you can make something, it's nice to see there's still craftsman out there making things like a great pair of boots. I've skimped on some things in my life but never what I put on my feet. I have a pair of L.L. Bean boots that I bought around 1989 and I still wear them today. LL Bean resoled them for me a couple times for free but I've heard they don't do that any longer. I'm guessing it's because they don't make them like they used to. Last year I bought a new pair of work boots and I went with Thorogood boots. I think they're great American Made boots but man this Bison Leather really looks great. I may have to have a pair of these in the near future.
Nothing beats hand crafted leatherwork
I'm grateful for showing me how much work and workmanship takes time, dedication and skill. I think it's worth every dollar 💰 maybe hundreds, I'm just guessing.
Looks like a great boot . I always liked the soft rubber soles for working on roofs and carpenter work. The bison leather should hold up for many years.
I have only bought Red Wing boots heritage, but today I ordered my first pair of these JK, I’m excited to get them, I even paid for the 9 week built, can’t wait to have them!!!
This is fascinating. So many wonderful tools & gadgets for making a shoe. Watching them using the edge trimming knife is so satisfying. I'm also surprised at how long the nails holding the sole on are.
I absolutely love the look of the bison when it's stretched!

this makes me appreciate those craftsmen who make handmade shoes. my respect
These workers building these boots are impressive. One slip of the knife or sander, or even the needle... And the boot could be done for. They're very skilled!
Amazing craftsmanship, really beautiful.
This was so satisfying to watch, craftsmanship on a very high level 👌 👏 One day, I shall be privileged to own a pair like that.
Brilliant. What an art of making a shoe.
I just ordered myself a custom pair of Forefronts. Bison leather with the rough lower and smooth upper. Cant wait to get them and enjoy the luxury of 4mm thick bison leather boots! Thanks JK!

Perfect material for boots, another perfect craftsmanship for boots 👢
The attention and care that goes into making these boots is awesome. I really want a pair now. I've been wearing Thorogoods for a long time now and I love them but they don't look as good as these Forefronts do. I see myself buying some JK boots in the future. Nice craftsmanship.
Outstanding craftsmanship! Semper Fi
Excellent work honestly this is called pure true business 👍 with costumers satisfaction
Can’t wait to get a pair of bison climbing boots from you all!
Hello Tim, after several weeks staring at my new double steel shank bison boots I finally laced them up. They’re incredibly nice literally have molded to my foot in just a couple of hours. This is my second pair and will be ordering more in the future once again thank you and your team.

Great skills Lots a time and effort Good job guy's
Having worn Redwing most of my working life … I can honestly say they look real good boots a pleasure to watch great craftsmanship 🇬🇧
Excellent artist, beautiful and wonderful shoe, well done
This is a very unique construction. Most boot makers (with the exception of Danner who uses a 360 degree stitch down method), use a combination of front stich down and heel nail down. With the use of the rear half mid-sole nailed down and a full mid-sole that is 360 degree stitched, JK finishes with a double 270 degree front stich down. The cut-a-way, or side view of the finished sole edge at the arch is cool looking. Impressive construction method.

Thanks for your explanation. Do you know why they don't stitch the top with the midsole before they glue and stitch finish sole? It looks like when you need to replace the finish sole (I'm sure it will happen) take it out the boot won't stay solid, especially in front part.
سلمت أيديكم ماهذه الفخامة والمهارة ؟
Man, that pair of boots would outlive anybody.
Man we should be able to give a few thumbs up 👍🏽 on this video,the craftsmanship is top notch !
I'm drooling on the sheer amount of leather it has on it. On my bucket list...$$$$. Best of all, its also have my initials on it :)
Just ordered a pair of the bison shadows in person!! What a beautiful boot. Can't wait to receive them! Good luck with the relocation. I'll have to make a visit to the new place when it's up and running, cheers!
I have one similar type from Clark's but this one is mouthwatering 😂 amazing job guys..
Bison rough/smooth forefronts are my absolute dream boot. I'll have to make that order soon!
Que trabalho magnífico.
Wonderful video making.... The boots look fantastic, what a craftsmanship.
very nice .thank you and your team.
Great job. Amazing
Awesome build
True skills and workmanship 👍🏽🇺🇸
Ever heard of the phrase "Die with your boots on"? These are the boots you want at that moment...
what amazing craftsmanship
What a talent absolutely beautiful boots.
good video. being a craftsman is all about patience.
I really admire JK Boots, i think the craftsmanship is above and beyond. Haven't tried a pair yet but im excited to save up and order a pair of the 10" superduty bison. Keep up the good work!
That man knows what he doing..indeed. Nice boots.
So long process, but borned the good result...wow amazing...

I am also a mature leather crafting not all i had basic tools i have but those skills with machines it took look easy but not? I'm right? That's why I wish I could also be a shoe maker ...
I really like the lower profile loop to prevent your pants from getting caught behind it when you stand up.
Ive never wanted a pair of boots soo bad in my life.... off to order me a pair!
I will never be able to buy them but i am able to dream about them forever 😊

I've been on the fence about ordering a pair of these Bison Forefront boots for a while now. This video was hypnotizing to watch... love the craftsmanship. I guess now is the time to order me a pair so I can have them by the Summer/Fall.

received my Bison Forefronts last week. It's been too hot to really wear them around, but they look and smell fantastic! They appear that break-in will be a breeze and should be a comfy boot to wear. Time will tell... if they are all that, I'll be ordering another pair to keep in the rotation.
Шикарная работа 👍
Wow! That’s an impressive process. Makes me want a pair.
so beautiful.dreaming to have one
Those boots are beautiful. I may have to order a pair...
Это и на современном оборудовании и с современными материалами очень сложно. Даже с учётом отработанной технологии. Я не понимаю, как это могли сделать впервые, без этих средств?! Круто!
Can't wait until my super duty JK bison arrive!
تحية احترام وتقدير إلى كل يد تعمل ب إتقان ❤🇩🇿
Im curious, when stitching the outsole to the stitchdown component of the uppers, why not create a channel for the stitching to sit inside? With them so exposed are the stitches not likely to wear out quicker?
Here because of Rose Anvil. Amazing work.

Very nice 👌 👍 👏 😊🎉
Love the boots. Great work. Just wondering though, is there a reason for not pre staining the top of the midsole before nailing it on
That leather has a beautiful pattern. When i was a kid, this is how i imagined dinosaur leather would look like if we could get it xD
FANTASTIC!!!!!
That precision, it's surgical.
