Also felt up some Red Wings - lightweight and didn't really seem like they were sturdy compared to my Grensons… Really don't understand the appeal and rep they have... :-\
Notice how my SEXIH07bks are no longer hanging on the rack… My dad is now wearing them... Sticking to my plan to have only 2 pairs in rotation for 2k11...

I agree. They are very different though, the Red Wings are basically work boots, where as ready to wear Grensons are a volume production version of a bespoke gentleman's shoe. Also, on average Grenson's are 50% -100% more than Red Wings, and i kind of feel Red wings are a little over priced?

Grensons are cheaper than Red Wings, lad… Also: you should check some of the boots they have...

Grenson shoes are no longer made in England. The got rid of the "Rose" and "Masterpiece" collections, which were still made in England. Now, they're mostly made in India. Tom Little bought the company in 2010.Who knows, he may bring back a few of the English made models.

i cant complain about the red wings i used for work for many years. the soles held out forever and they had good ankle support. they were great for jobs where i crouched alot because the sole was stiff so it didnt put alot of pressure on the arches of my feet, plus in the usa you can bring your boots into any red wing shoe store and they will replace the soles for you. they must be cheaper in the states than they are in other countries because i felt like compared to most "good" work boot companies they were priced pretty well.
