Red Wing Shoes

Got these RW 9042 oxfords recently. Couple pics:

Nice pick-up. Looks like they need a touch of polish and a good buffing and then they're good to go.

They look great!

Whoa!! Never seen those 4561's before. I really like that colour contrast. Its subtle but such an integral part of the look at the same time.

Totally agree. I'm split between the 1907 and the 877 as the defining boot of the brand.

Must agree about the 1907s, lovin' mine now they've softened up a bit!

[Takeshi]

do you use any Mink Oil or product on them ? ^

I'll probably use some Obenaufs on them when required, they're still pretty new at the moment, only a couple of weeks old, straight out of the box in the pic.

I just prefer the smell of Obenaufs to Mink Oil to be honest!

I've had my 1907's for over a year now and I don't use any oil on them at all. Great boots.

Any tips how to clean the sides of the white soles? My 875's are starting to look a bit scruffy…

…though they make a lot of mess imo!

[Seul]

Real messy indeed… Take heed...

[Sugar Mountain]

And don't use them on your jeans, right Sal? 

[Dirty Denim]

Lol that's right…no more dry erasers or simulated anything.

[SpaceGnome]

Yea, they basically disintegrate, leaving soapy crumbs all over the place, but they work so…
