Channel: Bootlosophy
Date: 2022-06-16

What's This Video About?
The Chippewa 6" Original Service Boot is an American classic boot. This model is in Crazy Horse leather, a soft but tough leather imbued with waxes that show scuffs and marks with distinction. Now hard to find because Chippewa appears to have cancelled production, some items are still available in the secondary markets.

Who Am I?
I am a Management Consultant in real life but in my Bootlosophy channel, I make videos about boots and all things boot related. This channel posts reviews of boots, unboxing of new boots, and follow up reviews, and in doing so, may explore the philosophy of the brands from time to time!

I have owned boots for decades, but to be honest I have owned them as functional pieces of footwear. It wasn't until early 2020 when COVID struck that I started online shopping boots to an obsessive degree. I love the aesthetic of boots and I love finding out more about how they are made. I now own an insane number of boots, and one day I may sell some of them (just not right now).
