Red Wing Shoes
-
So a quick follow up: I wanted a pair primarily for work so I went with the 4470, which comes with a steel toe (I manage a retail store stock room amongst other things). I’m glad I went with E vs D because otherwise I feel like it would’ve been a little snug in the toe box. Now, it’s time to use and abuse them until the Wesco boots arrive lol

Those are beat up as hell @chbronsonx! And they look wonderful. I agree that the price and quality that comes with it is damn near unbeatable. Plus, RWs look better with age and after bring super beat up. Have a spot in mind to have them resoled, etc.? I've been seeing ppl get theirs repaired and use a thicker leather midsole (is that what it's called?) like this:
I know you can get em resoled on Redwing Berlin website, so i guess maybe in every RW shop around you ?

@SKT:
Just throwing this out to you Red Wing guys…any recommendations for a place in the US to get a resole other than Red Wing?
Where do you live? I have a great guy in Nashville, TN. Unsung House on the north side of town in Germantown, my dude Grant there does great work.

lol also just noticed that post was from 4 months ago. Anyways, still relevant info.

Looking for a pair of 10877 Moc Toe .
Are they available in Europe? ::) -
Had my Iron Ranger 8083 pimped by Ingo Keller the Schuhgott ( shoegod) Cologne/ Germany
A super nice guy and his work is definitely outstanding
, maybe some of you already know him !?
My Iron Rangers got a thick leathermidsole and new nitrile soles cause I don’t like the new vibram soles.
here are a few pictures…

@Daniel San Very nice! How’s the knee healing?
-
knee is actually pretty good , thanks for asking mate
have 3 more pairs Iron Ranger and will let them be pimped too , such a brilliant upgrade -
@Daniel San Those looks very nice! Wondering if the midsole adds any additional comfort? I’m looking to do something very similar to my 8083s because (like you) I’m not a fan of the Vibram mini-lug.

@SKT
just got them back today, so I can’t tell you now. But will give a review after a few days of wear.
so will keep you updated!
are you from Germany? -
@chrisjohnnick Just now seeing your post about your boot guy in Germantown. I’ll look him up and thanks!

Some of my Red Wings.
8 years and still going strong. Love how the Beckman Featherstone leather ages. These #9013/Chestnut have gone through seven winters with merciless salt, snow, mud and dirt. They've looked like they're ready to retire many times, but after some love and care, they always bounce back in full technicolor. The patina always keeps developing in richer hues and makes me fall in love with these boots again. Last year I got a new pair of Blacksmiths in Black Prairie, and still can't wait to see them age as gracefully as these.
Iron Rangers
These were my first Iron Rangers in Amber Harness around 2014. I wore them for 2 years knowing full well I should've bought them one full size larger. My feet were killing me in this size but it was all ok for some reason. These pictures ended up circulating on instagram and pinterest somehow. I ended up replacing these with Copper Rough & Tough in my size but haven't snapped any good pictures of them yet.

@rovdjurstorget good collection mate! Are Beckmans right?
