thanks denimeric, here's my favorite pair.  do pretty much everything in them:

[Chris]

Those might be about ready for a resole.  Look comfy.

[madmonday]

yeah they might be, but i'm actually weird about them & want to leave them a little while longer.  they have helped me paint, move & mow my lawn for the past few years so they actually get worked in which is rare for me & my boots. think a resole might make them less comfy . . . yes makes no sense but true

hell no…unless you don't like the sole at all?! enough life left...

[Chris]

All Christy soles should be resoled.

[Finn666]

gotcha

^ ah, seems a new troll has appeared on the forum in the form of the christy-sole-anator.

i thought we had that covered with injun with his feelings on cuffs & boots & me with my general random trolling behavior.  glad to have you on board G$, i will continue to feed you christies so you can continue to share how much you love them with the rest of us        :-\ ::)

[Giles]

Mission accomplished.  I will desist now…..

[riffblaster general]

In Giles's honor I resoled my Chelsea's because the original soles hurt my knees so much that I couldn't wear em.  They look a little weird but I don't care.  Most comfortable boots I own now.

RBG,

Looks like the old Romeos. It's the impact resistance that sole offers that makes it worth whatever cat calls you're bound to get They look fine to me but all of my tastes aren't highly regarded

New Red Wing Postman Oxford tops my list this spring , deciding which ones is the problem ..

[Takeshi]

[Friday]

[summ3rhays]

Those are sweet Takeshi.  Which model?

Any sizing advice on 2268s (circa PT83-PT99) from the IH fam? I've heard everything from TTS, half size small to a half size large…

I'm really really obsessed with these right now.

(Btw I'm a sz 10D tts- just sayin )

4572 , from Amsterdam Red Wing store ..

[madmonday]

love this boot & the leather used:

think it's called cooper yuma or yuma cooper, either way it reminds me of that leather the people from Thorogood had a few years ago & called it “Crazy Horse”

[specmvl]

First resole after two years. Like it.

Hey y'all….

After spotting a lucky /r/goodyearwelt post to a site called lastsize.com, I was able to pick these up:

SO....I'm pretty stoked. From what I can tell the olive mohave is a roughout, which is even more exciting.

Does anyone else have an olive mohave pair? did you do anything to them? how have they turned out?
