Ice cutters are truly great shoes for the winter.

Red Wings 8138 after around 18months. In terms of construction no comparison to my new White`s - still like them a lot. They are due for a sole repair, does any of you guys know who does it Germany? I guess the retailers in Berlin/Hamburg and Frankfurt offer it only for their customers (bought mine in NY).
Currently talking to a Cologne based cobbler if he can get a Vibram Christy sole.

these moc toes are growing on me real hard.

which leather is that spec?

[specmvl]

Red Wing calls it Briar Oil slick leather. Oil tanned cow I think but not certain. Have treated them with Obenauf`s leather oil a couple of times.

put the ice cutters to the test today.  10 inches of snow,  3 vehicles plowed in,  ice dams on the roof…..  been out shoveling knee deep snow for the past 4 hours.  feet are warm and dry still.  these get a big thumbs up.  great boots.

I haven't posted pcitures of these for over a year I think…I own them for three years now, but they only get worn when I'm outdoors.

@riffblaster:

Just got a pair of icecutters through a trade.  Thumbs waaaaay up.  Super comfortable, wool lined,  waterproof, and come with a removable insole.  The price point is high for these so I can't say if I think they're worth the money yet,  I need to abuse them for a bit.

I like the look of these boots!
