We're comparing the most popular moc toe boots against each other to see who's the winner. Which is best? The Red Wing Classic Moc, Thursday Boots Diplomat, Thorogood Moc Toe, or the Danner Bull Run? Only one way to find out...

In this video, I compare the style, leather quality, sole quality, fit & sizing, and in the end give you my final verdict on which of these boots I would get again.
I'm doing some new tests, too, like checking how much weight it takes to make these boots slip on oily concrete---something you definitely need to know if you're working in your moc toe boots.
Stick around until the end because the winner might not be what you expect.

Probably others have made similar observations... The Thursday and Red Wings are fashion boots while the Thorogood and Danner are more real world work boots. Both the Thorogood and Danner are offered with a steel toe option. I wear the steel toe Danner Bull Runs because I liked the fit and look better than the Thorogood boots. I work at a mixed construction / tech site with thousands of people, where some, but not all, workers are required to wear safety toe boots/shoes and the Thorogood boots are by far the most common. I do see lots of Danner Bull Runs plus a lot of boots from Keen (They make a lot of safety toe offerings) and some others including Red Wing. Nobody wears Thursday or Classic/ Heritage Red Wings on a large site. Just an observation.
I have both the Thursday and Redwing boots and completely agree with your sentiments regarding those boots. Both are great in their own ways and have slightly different use cases.

Been wearing danner bull run 8" wedge soles. I've been suffering with plantar fasciitis for a year since I gave up on my thorogood moc toe wedge which destroyed my feet. No thorogood used to make fantastic work boots years ago before they went to their max wear soles now they feel like 2x4's strapped to your feet, now I've tried at least 8 pairs of boots and work shoes this year and nothing made my feet feel right, 3 different timberlands, redwing, merrell, and solovair. I bought these danners 2 months ago and my planter fasciitis is almost gone and I walk on 4 feet of concrete for a good amount of the day. They are very comfortable and mold perfectly to your foot, lightweight, and perfect for indoor factory work. I suggest danner over thorogood, if they went back to the old viabram soles then I would go back, redwings are to narrow in the toe, and i cannot vouch for thursday, my go to go out boots are some good old dr.martens 1490 English made and you cant beat the look and comfort of dms

Great review! I'm a Union Carpenter and I own a pair of Thursday diplomat boots. I've worn them 5 days a week for about a year and six months. They've held up great, and I have even had them resoled once six months ago. I used to wear Redwing boots exclusively but tried Thursday boots and I was pleasantly surprised. I don't think these boots would be good for anyone with a thick or wide foot imo.
I would have to rate the Danner's first. I own 2 pair of Bull Runs in Black. I use one for work and one for weekends. It's a very good boot for the price. Fit is right on. No break in at all. And build and quality id good as well. When I get the work boots resoled, I will go with the Vibram Logger sole.. Thursday will be my net boot to get cause I already own other Thursday boots and shoes. Red Wings are a good boot as well, but their sizes are not made for us guys with wide feet.. Thanks for another nice video though..

I am in construction and have been wearing moc toe boots for 10+ years. I have worn red wings, thorogoods, carolinas and dr marten non moc toes style on the job. Thorogood was my go to until they changed their price, but I got 3 years out of each pair, and am on year 2 with red wings. My thorogood welt cracked and damaged after 2.5 years. Red wings in my opinion were more easily worn in the sole and the upper. The carolinas didn't last and werent near as comfortable after 1 year, but to be expected at that price point. I will stick with the red wings and thorogoods depending on my chosen leather color at the time. I also like the sole options thorogood has. 1 complaint was when i resoled my red wings was they sanded some of the welt almost to the point of touching the stitches. I brought this up to them when picking them up and they said it was fine. Time will tell if that is true.
My local boot shop sells the Thorogoods for $183...I also own the White Perry's, paid $269 but twice a year (including now) they can be had for 20% off ......IMO the Thorogoods are a great looking boot to wear w jeans and the Perry is def. a higher quality boot

Thank you for mentioning the weight of the boot. No other reviewer talks about that at all and that is one of the more important aspects. As a tradesman when you wear these boots for 10-12 hours a day those ounces feel like pounds. I absolutely hated the Thorogood because of the weight and my feet felt it at the end of the day. I love the Danners because of the lightweight and also Redwing 411. The durability is a non issue with any of these I have had all of them. Comfort is everything. Id rather have a boot wear out than have it be so heavy and durable that its my feet that wear out instead. Isn't that the point of boots anyway? To be the wear item instead of your own body. Doesn't work too well when boots are bricks.

If I may suggest Thorogood makes a a different edition named “crazy horse” that has more natural leather and is built more like that Thursday boot you have. Thinner and more narrow with better leather than the classic Thorogood you have. It’s worth about $260ish but trust me the quality is definitely a step higher. I have those and redwings and I choose the Crazy horse Thorogood over my 2 pairs of red wings.

I don't know anything about boot, nor do I care. However that is a beautiful black Chevrolet C10 you have.
I have bought 2 pairs of Danner Bull Run and 3 pairs of Red Wing 18(whatever). None of them fit comfortably or fit my foot correctly. I wear a size 9 in sneakers and I bought a 9, & 8.5 danner. Both gave me heel blisters every time I wore them. So I was like fuck these boots and bought and 8.5, 8, and 7.5 of the Red Wings all in the span of about 4 months to try to get a boot that was comfortable and didn’t give me blisters. All of them feel like I’m wearing a 2x4 nailed to my foot. The 7.5 doesn’t slip in the heel so I guess that is the correct size but the sole also doesn’t fucking bend at all so it’s extremely uncomfortable for me. I wanted a good boot that would last a while but I literally can’t wear any of them without getting crazy blisters or just feeling super constrictive, even for for wearing them for a couple of hours walking around. And I don’t have feet problems or any issues with any other shoes. I’m about to give up. I’ve spent over $1200 in the last 9 months trying to find a boot that just fits and haven’t accomplished that yet.
Ecco has just now began selling a mock toe boot of their own, and they are known for durability and longevity! Definitely going to have to consider doing a review of them also!

Sorry but I work on my feet 12 hours a day 7 days a week and to compare red wing boots to Wal-Mart boots WALMART WINS. RED Wings are the most uncomfortable boots I've ever worn and the most expensive. Thorogood is the most comfortable boots I've ever worn even over Timberland Pro's. But that might just be my feet. The 2 pair of Red Wing boots I bought 1st pair took a month to somewhat break in but still hurt my feet. The 2nd pair took over a month and I cleaned them up and returned them.

I can only rate the Danner and redwing. Thursday boot is in the mail. Danner leather is holding up better but the boot is clunky and annoying to walk in. Never has broken in to feel like the wings. Red wing is on second RE sole and is like wearing sneakers but it’s too narrow which is what is driving me to the Thursday. I wore them primarily trucking for lumber mills with a flat bed. Lots of miles around a truck strapping things down, walking on gravel the trailer deck and pavement. Cleaned up for date night etc. Very versatile boots. Not trucking anymore, so the Thursdays will have an easy life. Not a moc but my present favorite is the grant stone diesel (unreal quality for the $). Second fave is redwing blacksmith.

Try the golden fox boots. Trust me.
Thorogoods mold to your feet. The classic tobacco moc toe is a work boot that is actually comfortable to wear all day, unlike the Redwing moc toe.
Why do you say bull run like that
I’ll save everyone their time. Winner is Thorogood
I tried the thorogoods cause of the hype, don't get me wrong feel like a quality boot really wanted to keep it but had to swap em cause they're not wide enough. Danners have more room for wide foot mfs like me
Redwing 1907 is the best of these.
Looks better with skinny jeans... 😂😂
I have a pair of Danner Bull Run for 5 going on 6 years now. I wear them almost every day. The leather has held up great, extremely comfortable boot. Lots of toe room. The only downside was the tread has worn out. I recently bought a pair of Thorogood, did not like them at all, very small tow box. A rather ugly boot in person. Thank goodness for amazon return policy.
lbs is a unit of force not pressure

Bro I like your choices of shoes and other item but your style of delivery isn’t entertaining. Show more stairs than taking !
Redwing 1907 ......
Danner is not a inexpensive boot
Title is a bit much, massacre? It’s like click bait. Just my opinion.
Danner and Thorogood source their soles from the same manufacturer. Your "slip resistance test" is highly amusing.

@@ddbrock9675 i mean...I literally tested both of them under the same conditions. You can watch me do it in the video. My test wasn't perfect for sure, so I could be wrong. But my research was actually testing the boots. Not just looking up stuff on the internet. Even if it's the same manufacturer, it doesn't mean the product is exactly the same. For instance, Vibram has dozens of different rubber compounds they use for their soles, which can lead to minor differences in performance. Again, I'm not saying I'm correct---my test was imperfect. But to say that I didn't do research is silly.

ACTUALLY the best is the one you can afford that gives you best bang for buck including comfort and comfort is WAY more important that name brand or personal preference of the style. So, if Thoro's last you 1.5 years before breaking down and RW last 2. Which one is really BEST? Considering the price you paid and how much better the break-in period was and how comfortable the boot was. I'm pretty sure you would agree the Thoro's ARE better than RW. OF COURSE we're talking about an everyday work environment experience. Believe it or not I can easily afford a really nice pair of White's perry or Nick's Moc. But, I choose Thoro's due to reasons above and #1 for me IS comfort. So, for that specific reason I choose Thoro's. Thursday or Danner don't even come close as for what I consider a "WORKING" MANS boot.
The Thursday boots look like terrible. They look like something you get from The Shoe Dept at the mall. That thin toe box would only be good for taking your girlfriend out to a martini bar. You could never do real work in those things.
