      I like those knok about boots.

      My only "beef" with Russell products is that some look like a 5 year old used grocery store scissors to cut the leather.  Im not picky about stitch counts and the like, but the finishing is just shit at times.  I have only seen examples of the extremes however, so they are either fantastic or  poorly done.  None of the issues seems to be a build quality issue though.  I dont know enough to form a solid opinion at this point, but I am at the very least, weary of the product at this point.

            I like the green suede paired with the brown leather.  I  really like the green suede itself.  Would like to see it paired with some khaki chinos and/or denim to see if I could pull it off.

                quoting from sufu…

                @fre-co:

                More new boots alert. Look away now if easily offended by new leather.

                Finally got my Russell Moccasin custom order.
                I'm extremely happy with these. The details are something like this:
                7 inch single vamp Birdshooter in tan chromexcel

                • Brown cape buffalo outer moulded sole
                • Treated oak leather midsole
                • Brass eyelets
                • Vibram #430 sole
                • Leather lining - tan
                  These are on the munson last which is immensely comfortable out of the box with bags more room in the toebox compared to the standard Russell last. I also rather like the wide toe profile.
                  The Russell construction is awesome, nothing to complain about on this pair. The CXL feels beefy, way more so than Alden's.

                  I'm trying to find info about it, but with no much luck. How do you compare Russell boots size wise with Red Wing of Indys?

                    This is another place where it is best to send in a tracing.  They will tell you what size you are.

                                    I love those!!! Does a lot more for me than a Viberg Engineer. Think I may need a pair of these.

                                      truth be told, i like that these haven't been embraced by "many" which is good for me, but bad for russie. so much quiet money to be made.

                                      will put up images of my one or two pairs tonight. . . .maybe, hahahahahaha

                                        Not bad for Russell (at least in their minds).  They are too busy as it is, that is why the Collab thing failed….

                                          okay, i love Iron Heart & most of the collabs, but I'm glad the collab didn't go through. not sure they really GET what Iron Heart is.

                                          imho Viberg is the best fit for Iron Heart, but that's for another thread . . .
