      I picked these up a while back.  LL Bean/Chippewa.  Found them at the ll outlet for $50.  I bought them because it was too good a deal to pass up.    I didn't really wear them much but I pulled them out a few weeks ago and I've been wearing them every day.  They're great boots.  The only real difference between these and the normal Chippewa service boot is they aren't stamped with the logo on the ankle.  The tongue is stamped with ll bean instead.  These also have a removable insole (which makes the boot for me, bad knees).  I'm not sure if the normal ones do or if they don't.  Maybe someone else can shed some light on that.    Great boot.  I lucked out on these but now having owned a pair I would buy another at full price.

        Here's my appaches after about 2yrs of wear. The heel needs replacing, I walk hard on the outside corner of my heels so at this point they're pretty worn. Have treated them once or twice with red wing boot oil.

          I needed a reasonable price winter boot and tried Chippewa. They're really well made, better looking than RW so far. Of course Wesco, Whites and Viberg have nicer & heavier leather, but for the price they're a great deal. I'll keep the black LTTs, they're super comfy from the start. 10 E fits me perfectly (10,5 in RW and Whites, 10 in Viberg).

            So, you bought 16 pairs?

                    How roomy are those boots in the toes area compare to redwing?
                    Because I have very wide feet…

                      They're E width…so should be wider than most RWs. But I haven't worn them outside. They feel super comfy from the start and I have wide feet too. I can handle most D widths, but E feels better. I'm pretty sure they also come in EE.

                        E width will be to small for me .. Hopefully they come in EE sometime.. It is nearly impossible for me to found a boot who fits me well.. Therefore I send the Wesco  custom fit form today to Gosport for a pair of  Custom Foot Patrols…

                              Chippewa x Jcrew roughouts, I bought them second hand in the summer just really starting to wear them now.

                                Just kopped these Chippewa Originals and thought I'd post them because I hadn't seen this style before. It's the 8" Tan Renegade leather version of the service boot with a somewhat different pattern (applied kiltie, backstay, and pulltab).

                                        The only 'lining', which I can see is in the heel section (pic 6) … mediocre

                                          I sold my Red Wing Chukkas because I don't like the half textile lining in the front and hope the Chippewas will be fully leather lined. How's the sizing of yours, Finkster?

                                            I bought them a half / 1 size too big (my regular size was sold out)  :-\ … but it works with thick socks.
