Thanks, I seem to be warming to them again.

I love my Russells but the need a resole and the crepe sole will be awful through the winter.  So the Red Wings come in and I can wear them through the winter and send my Russells back for a rebuild…....Perfect...

Anyone seen these around in their area in a size 8.5 US (model #2974)

Everytime it shows up on ebay my size is always the first to go  :-\

Question about red wings:
I'm thinking of picking up a pair of 1907s soon and I was wondering if these would hold up well in the winter. Would the soles slip on the ice or no?

[DougNg]

Other than boots with the metal teeth on the bottom, I've found that everything slips on ice….
