Very weird request but if you arent doing anything with the metal attachments from the sole is there any chance I could buy them off you? I need replacements for one of my pairs!

The face paint alone deserves a like and subscribe.

Halloween Dad joke What do you find inside of goth boots? They have dark soles.

Laces through the heels is more than likely to keep the sole on.

Have a few pairs of new rocks and they are incredibly comfy! Never had any issues with the quality but i would recommend only buying them in the sale. New rock has sales pretty often and I’ve bought a pair 70% off.

There’s an entire world of goth/ industrial boots out there; it’d be awesome to see you review them, actually, since as you can see, they get pricy FAST. I know fluevogs have already been requested, but I’m sure I’m not the only person who’d be happy to give you a longer list of spooky brands to review. (I imagine these are primarily made for clubbing and general wear, so it’s also interesting to consider what would be “good” construction there—do you want a shank in shoes used for dancing? I know some styles of professional dance shoes don’t have shanks, so maybe that’s a consideration? What kind of sole is good for the abuse the shoes take, especially when it comes to the ability to fix them, either DIY or paying for it? Etc etc etc. )

I'd love to see how a pair from the 90s were made. Mine were indestructible I wore them all the time but they were so much heavier than the ones you get now.

To finally see my request come true was amazing. Thank you so much. I have to say I am hugely disappointed to see that the sole was glued on but otherwise everything else looked awesome. I had the exact same pair when I was 16 and finally threw them out when I was 31. They were my going out boots, work boots (I was a mechanic), walking boots, they were my everything boot for 15 years and never did the sole split or come away. Again, thanks for letting me see inside these boots. Top job, keep up the good work.

I went to highschool with a girl who wore these kinds of boots. Very goth, all the dark shit. She sang opera, it was really cool.

Please please please do a video cutting open rick Owens geobaskets. You would make the entire fashion community so mad. Plus I would love to see what is inside my pair without having to cut them in half myself

"Stomp on things until the sole comes off." That's why I buy boots.

So glad to see you finally did some New Rock boots! The entire spooky community thanks you! I have had new rocks for years, as well as other brands of extreme platform and 'goth' boots, and the number one problem is the soles coming away from the shoe. This occurs most often on cheaply made, synthetic boots which are only ever glued onto the sole, but i have never had that problem with New Rocks. I'm disappointed to see the hollow sole and the gluing on this pair, but i have to say i have had New Rocks that have lasted 10+ years with basically constant everyday wear, and I've only stopped wearing them because I get gifted another pair by my amazing mum! There's this whole library of knowledge, certainly in the goth community, where we all know the best extreme shoes and what brands to buy and which to avoid, and New Rocks have always been well received by everyone I've come across. They are kind of like your modern goth boot bread and butter i suppose! I know people who have had New Rocks for 20+ years and still going strong, and although they don't offer this anymore sadly, the company used to offer lifetime guarantees on all their boots so if they broke or you lost a bit of hardware they would replace free of charge which was great. Not to mention a big sign of confidence in the boots. I'd be curious to see you cut apart some other spooky brands of boots, especially Demonia boots, Buffalo boots, maybe some amazing old Swear boots (though I will cry when you cut them up because they are so rare now!) and I'm very curious to see what kind of flimsy cardboard those Killstar ones are made of lol! Demonias come in some incredible and outlandish styles - even more so than New Rock - but they are all synthetic and do not last nearly as long. However I must say from experience they hold up pretty well in the sole-peeling-off department which is great, and they don't cost the earth either so I suppose its an even trade. Either way, love your videos- they are so satisfying! And I would love to see you cut apart a bunch of stuff on the stranger side of things.

Your face caught me off guard 😂😂

Buy them used! If they are your style and you can deal with the heaviness they feel pretty solid and comfortable, they aren't worth the retail price but at least here in Europe you can get decent condition pairs starting at the equivalent of 80$ or so, and for about 100-150$ you can get them in basically new condition :)

I've got a pair of the womens equivilent of this style that are 15 years old, were worn almost daily for 5 of those years and have survived countless nights out and rowdy rock gigs and mosh pits. I have also got a more recent pair in a more standard style that have done thousands of miles with me on my motorcycle and apart from some fading of the colour, are still going strong. However, when I went to the New Rock store earlier this year, I was saddened that the quality of the boots no longer matches what it used to be, just trying them on in the store you could tell the materials were not as good as the older models and the construction was flimsier. If i wasn't so attached to my pair I'd send them to you for a comparison of the older models, maybe you can pick up a pair on ebay though?

i have a pair of their boots (but without flamings). they're about 15 years old now and very comfortable. i definitely paid less than 200 euros for them back then.

i have had my new rocks for more than21 years and they look great the sole has not fall on off

I've got probably 6 pairs of NewRocks. They changed with time quite a bit. My first pair is about 20yo (short ankle boots), still going strong though I abused them badly and a lot. Even the nubuck uppers held up nicely and the sole is still solidly on. A newer pair of almost kneehigh boots has not been so good - had to reglue the sole twice already, but other then that - really comfortable. The rest I don't wear so often, so can't say anything about durability.

Thank you for finally doing these! I'm so hyped
