Red Wing Shoes

Appreciate you sharing the info t! Thanks

Just wanted to post that my RW 2991 engineers are officially broken in – after only 2 wears! I wore them for 10+ hours the first day and it wasn’t bad at all; just a bit tight around the vamp, as most new shoes are, but no noticeable heel slip or any other quirks. The only complaint I had at that time was how tight the shafts were (I’m a big dude with big calves…) and that there is no pull loop to aid in getting them on. My initial try-on was a total struggle and I was really concerned about having to fight with them every time I wore them in the future. In fact, I was planning on sewing in some sturdy pull loops to aid in getting the boots on!
Anyway, I wore them again the other day totally expecting to have to fight to get them on but that wasn’t the case! They slipped on easily, which I can only attribute to the leather having had time to “learn” my feet/calves. I wore them again for around 10+ hours (office environment – not really “working” in them), and they loosened up a bit more, as I’m sure they will do again the next time I wear them. But the cool thing this time was that they were super-easy to get off – didn’t even have to ask the wife for her assistance! In short, these get the official Moonshine seal of approval!

Can anyone give me some sizing advice regarding Red Wing 1907's?
I'm an 8D in the 8890's, another RW moc toe, so was going to go for the 8D in these too but heard that the 1907's fit a little smaller. Apparently the 1907's have an insole in them which takes up some room. Can these insoles be removed or do I need to size up to a 8.5D?
Any advice greatly appreciated as I'm probably not going to have a chance to try before I buy.
I'd go with 8.5D. I had a pair of 1907s but found them to run larger than other heritage RW boots.

Interesting. Looks like the heritage 875 and 877's are about to get a little more heritage-y.

I'm spying some brand new additions to the Red Wing Heritage line for Fall. Some new leather options too. These will be must kops – especially the "Ice Cutters" -- looks like they may be wool lined? Nice.

My understanding is that all Heritage boots are made in the States.

Snagged a pair of vintage pecos on eBay last night for $100 bucks in virtually NOS condition

hi everyone.
please help me about sizing RW ::)
if i use 8.5D in 1907, what i should use size down or same in 9014?I usually get the same size in all RW heritage boots, but you can also get away with an 8D for the Beckman boots. The last is roomier than the 1907. I just measured both of mine with an insole….

Hi! i recently bought a Iron Ranger us9.5 but its hugging my feet pretty tight, no allowance at all, was thinking on getting another in sz10 or should i get a sz9.5E instead?
I'm fine how long the us9.5 feels it's just the width that is bothering me, idk if these will stretch (width) more as i wear them, tho but afraid it might get bulky or not proportion to its sole
I'm also on the look out on getting another pair, Round Toe 8196 or the 875, how are these compared (sizing) to Iron Rangers?
Thanks!
