Red Wing Shoes

Check imperfections in the third pic… Haven't even given 'm a thorough look-at... These are new out of the box, have tried them on but have NOT worn them or anything... I don't mind these kind of things, but as I said before: def not up to par with the better bootmakers… But then you don't pay as much either...
I'm sure these 'll do exactly what I want them to do: get me through a couple of springs and summers whilst further deteriorating my Atelier LaDurance jeans
this…
but even if you want them to exchange the pair...cultizm has a great customerservice as well!

Thanks Lando. I would love to try a pair of RW 3145s but seeing as this pair is nowhere near the end of it's life guess I'll just keep wearing them.

These are Red Wing work boots (2156, 10D).
I need work boots that are slip-resistant, lot of ankle support, and can take both an outside lift on the right boot, and custom insoles on each, so usually higher toe box.
Factory floors, climbing up through stuff, and landscape work (the no slip soles are great for chopping wood or pulling weeds…but they also can tear up terrain if you are not careful).
Whatever these soles are, they perform no-slip head-and-tails above any other I have tried–the compromise is that they are stiff enough that a whole vigorous day can leave the boot heavy on aching feet.

Below, by comparison, is my favorite work boot to wear. Chippewa 72100, which I need in a 10W.

But the Red Wings get the tougher environments–weather, muck, and the like. The non-slip cannot be beat, as I said. The Chippewa is also non-slip but does not match the Red Wing sole. for example, here's the sole of the Chippewa.
You can see mud and gunk sealed on, but the Red Wing sole is always clean–amazing stuff. Chippewa sole more forgiving to wear, though.

Personally, I find shiny metallic Dior boots to be the best for prancing about in.
