          My first Iron Rangers lasted 8 years, second 4, third 2 years with numerous resoles. My cobbler confirmed that quality has been deteriorating and some new boots now look like factory seconds.

          I was ready to pull the trigger on some custom Wesco's when a local recommended Grant Stone. Went with the waxed commander. https://www.grantstoneshoes.com/products/diesel-boot-natural-waxed-commander

          Quality is two ticks better than IR, one tick better than Alden Indy's. Very pleased after 130 miles through winter and spring. These come with a vibram lugged sole that is a bit more rugged than IR with suits me using them almost exclusively in the woods in mud and snow.

          PS: I am quite hard on my boots so the experience of the city dwellers with IRs could be much better.

                Thanks very much, they are super comfortable. They are an E width with plenty of room on the foot box to let the foot spread.

                They were to only boots I found that easily accommodated my orthotics.

                Bad feet suck, as most of foot wear looks like crap just to be comfortable. I pretty much live in these, and my Birks … lol

                        @Crease What a beautiful specimen! I was almost configuring the very same specs, but eventually I ended up going for thicker midsole and honey Vibram, all in effort to get more shock absorption.
                        I have to admit that Yours look more classy! 🙂

                          Thanks @Karol ! Yeah these have the 430 mini lug, I’m not on my feet all day so they have been great so far. I bet the honey Vibram feels awesome!

                                @Crease No, it's the same 1964 Black smooth 7-8oz, however you have a good eye as the lower part has already undergone one light Saphir Renovateur coat that has stayed overnight before polishing, and after another week of wear and daily polishing I added super light coat of Saphir Mirror Gloss. That too stayed overnight and since then (2 weeks) they just been polished after each wear.

                                  New role club engineers just came in. These were from the ready to wear run that Brian did recently. I hadn’t planned on another pair of boots for some time but when the opportunity to get these without the long wait came up I jumped on them - I waited 2 years for my underdogs but I believe the waitlist is back down significantly now.

                                  Brian was kind enough to lower the heel on these for me so they’re on his low woodsman heel rather than the full woodsman on the rest of the run.

                                  These are on his new last which I believe falls between the 2 existing lasts that he uses for his engineers, one of them being quite sleek and the other a bit fuller in the toebox.

                                  The leather is listed as Italian horsehide and I believe it’s from the maryam tannery but I could be wrong about that.

                                      Also @VoodooRay those RCs look sick — I just got a pair of black ones. The wait time has indeed come down quite a bit, took about 8 or 9 months for me, I think. I was a little scared with the price and the whole process, but they fit perfectly.

                                        @popvulture Nice 1, I’m pretty pleased with these but was just thinking it would have been worth the wait time to get them made to measure rather than a stock size, my underdogs have a noticeably better fit.

                                        If getting made to measure ones this is the make up I would have gone for so I was pleased that Brian was willing to customise the heel for me, pretty decent of him I thought.

                                        Enjoy your new boots!
