      A couple months ago I had some Roughnecks in EE, but they were too narrow. Someone who knows Redwing pretty well suggested that I try the 1907 in EE because it was likely to be wider. Does anyone have any info on whether or not this would be worth a shot? Or if there are any other heritage models that seem to be wider than the typical EE (I wear a 3E usually, but could stretch something that's close enough).

        I've taken a similar approach, only in reverse. I have 1907s in ee width, and they're wide enough for my foot and very comfortable. Then I bought 877s, same size, same width. They definitely run significantly narrower, possibly too narrow for me in the long run, but I can't say for sure until I've broken them in properly.

        If you want to play it safe, go for the 1907.

          @indigo_fades My 1907 D moc's are slightly wider than my 875 EE. Both in a UK 8.5 size

              Anyone pull the trigger on the 2966 Engineer boot? I wanted to but I already bought some whites engineers a few months ago. Post pics if you get them!

                    I grabbed the 8168. I wanted the 8060 but i just wish the heel had a bit more height to it.

                        @Dmart yea. It’s a Japan exclusive but snake oil provisions is receiving them in the US. I sent them an email to pre order them. Seems like their stock will be small. They only had 1 size US 10

                            Currently wearing a pair of 2950’s I scored from eBay a while back. They were nearly new when I bought them, but that was many miles ago. I love the CRT leather and the round toe makes a nice change too.

                              Has anyone got a recommendation for replacements laces beyond Red Wing's own? I just snapped a pair of their leather laces on my Moc Toes

                                  @m4xime I don’t have a recommendation but I’m sure I read somewhere that if you break the laces, contact Redwing and they will replace them.
                                  I can’t swear to this. I just have a feeling I’ve read it somewhere.

                                        Very happy that Red Wing brought these back. Looking forward to the 8168 arriving soon too.
