      ^ Now that is a pair of boots. Care to share build details?

      They're Danners, the Mountain Light II Black. They have a one-piece leather upper with a Gore-Tex liner. Luckily they feature the more durable Vibram Kletterlift outsole rather than the softer and spongier Gumlite.

      Works on my machine.

        Sounds solid af. How do you find them in action?

        I need to do something about my walking boot situation. I'm stuck using my Viberg Smokejumpers which are great in terms of support and traction and for use in dry weather, but aren't really made for the kinds of crap nature can throw at you around here.

                    Just received my redwing 2906 boots.
                    Used a kiltie from my IH wesco boots.

                    With or without?

                        Yes I agree. It's now been removed.

                            ???  now I don't know what to do!

                            But I do think I prefer without. (didn't come with boots anyway)

                              I'd keep it, looks good. Also the tongues on Red Wings could use the protection.

                                  That's a good point. I think.

                                  Another dilemma is if I use laces in first pic or laces that came with the boots ?

                                  I'm going to have to lie down.

                                    @jonnyv  Kilties all day long  🙂

                                    However, imo, there is a right way and a wrong way to thread them otherwise the kilties have a mind of their own . . .

                                      Original nylon laces, with the kiltie.

                                      And full disclosure- I cannot stand kilties, but somehow, it just looks right on those.

                                        I'll give it a go, but it just feels wrong!

                                        Cheers

                                            Looks great @jonnyv.
                                            I'd also experiment routing the laces in the manner shown in my image as it pulls the kiltie back into the tongue, to see which you prefer . . .
