Red Wing Shoes

[Dirty Denim]

Thanks guys I woke up today liking these all of a sudden.  I wore them out tied tighter than a cats ass

those will break in nicely.  I hate red wings fresh out of the box, but once they start to form and mold to your foot,  its game time

[Blackheart]

Agreed SG.

Both my pair of chukkas, but especially the brown ones (older model, with padded ancle stuff on the inside), were comfy from the get go… I was really very pleasantly surprised, seeing as I never was a Red Wing fan... They seem to love taking a beating...

your blue chukkas already soaking up the obenauf´s matey?

Yea they were a bit to crisp..but i can see how they are bending with my natural shape of my ankle and foot.

Not sure if these need any treatment or not.  They have this brushed feel to them and have pre distressed spots that are darker

Nah, not doing it. Just brushing, as injunjack said.

My Iron Ranges were good right out of the box but out of the three pairs I have they were the only pair that were.

Break in on my 9011 sucked. After a week they were incredibly comfortable.

My 1907's were the same way.

My 3141 chukkas were hell on earth for about a week.  Mostly in the heel area.  Now, they are like slippers

[Finn666]

[Blackheart]

[Dirty Denim]
