Red Wing Shoes

My first pair of redwings (1907)

Love em!! ... nearly finished breaking in.

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

@marco23d is this the model with the wedge sole?

[marco23d]

@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

@ironfadegreg Love the 1907’s. Get ready, it’s a slippery slope, so many good RW’s.

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

[goosehd]

@m4xime I have heard good things about https://www.pisgahrangeltd.com/?srsltid=AfmBOoqwWXN7jIWk3Ni-8RU-F5zRopUFksMxWkNrp01GlNVNyvk__gAM

[SiRockxx]

@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.

@SiRockxx I also read it on Reddit earlier doing research and struggle to believe that but will ask them!

[SiRockxx]

@m4xime
Cool. Let me know how that turns out man.

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

[WhiskeySandwich]

@SiRockxx yes! These are prob my fave pair ever

[Dmart]

@guiltyparty love them!

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Denimhead-0 It is def a slippery slope. I really liked my 1907 resoled with the flat welt. Its a damn shame they were too small. I'm tempted to do that again one day. I bet if I asked them, and paid the difference, they'd swap the welt for me before shipping..... I really like the CRT on the 45 last but the faux storm welt bothers me and adds unnecessary bulk imo.

Love my RWs!

They look so great! Had this model twice, but they never really fitted. At some point I figured out that I need the EE width, but to this day I've never had the chance to get a pair.
Enjoy!

@Denimhead-0 These are gorgeous my friend, you've convinced me I have to get a pair right away
