Red Wing Shoes

[zwer]

Good to know that they do stretch in width. I'm waiting for them to go back on sale and then I'll order them.

@Seul:

And someone bought them whilst my proxy had made an offer. Should've bought at full price…

So yeah: if anyone knows where I can still buy a pair of these (3142)... 

Thank you eBay. I know I said in the Recent Purchases thread that there set me back 35 €, but I lied… It was 35.5 €...

I read an article on how many Japanese buyers file down the sole of their Red Wings to give it much thinner subtle looking sole .. anyone else heard of this ?

[Takeshi]

this picture shows similar to what I mean , the back of the sole looks filed , and the sole itself looks much more slim-line ..

Worked in 'm all day - superb piglets… Love 'm to bits already... Brought a back-up pair of shoes just in case, didn't even consider them... No hassles at all...

Red Wing chukka 3142. Rough out #sand. 35 €. Really, really decent nick. Tossed in a new insole and a new lace for the right boot. Ready to go!..

I don't know how you can go back to Red Wing after wearing Yuketen. That being said, I respect what they do.

[Finn666]

cuz I still like the brand and what they do!…
my Yuketens and Vibergs are dope, no question, but tbh red wing is also more in my price range since I'm still a student and all!...
I saw these in person today, tried'em on and now they're on my list!...

If I had to choose between my Tricker's or my Red Wings, chances are I'd stick with my chukkas… Honest to God... That said, if I had the money to make an MTO Tricker's chukkas... 

[Finn666]

talking about chukkas…looking to sell my red wing 3143 chukka boot!
unfortunately i bought them a half size too big (US9.5) so if anyone is looking for a pair in mint condition, hit me up!

That RW looks badass Finn. Coupled with the M65 jacket I'm sure no one dare to bug you.
hehe..

Finn: have you tried an insole?.. My brown and blueberries are 7.5 (UK), but the lastest wo (grey and sand) are an 8… Works for me...

[rocket]

with Seul, try a insole…

[rocket]

here you go Seul RW 9014

I'm with Finn on the Loggers. But I'd got for the Briar Oil Slick leather.

Red Wing's Number 8 Last fits me pretty well, and I've got weird feet.

Aaah yes, they're the "Gentleman's Travellers" right?.. Beautiful stuff mate!..
