      Thanks all! I am beyond happy with these 🙂 I can’t get over that new boot smell.

      Now I’m thinking about my next pair…. wait I mean I’m not..... no I’m not at all..... I don’t need another pair.... (the more I tell my self that it will be true right?)

      Adam those look great! And your shots were a big part of me scoring these.

        @kkibbey23 do you have some photos after some good usage?

        Regarding sizing, if I wear RW Iron Rangers in 9.5D, then this should be the same 9.5D?

          I won't have any more pics of them for a few weeks. I tried them on then away they went until after my birthday[emoji41]

          As far as sizing goes. I have a few pairs of Iron rangers.  One pair is a 10.5 works but is tight, the others are 11s and are better. I went 10 1/2 in these and they are perfect!! Im also a 10.5 in jobmaster and viberg 2030.

          Hope that helps

              had to order one…  😞 no chance to resist...  😢

              P.S.
              could someone clarify what type of leather do they have? what treatment it requires? (oiling like for oil-tanned leathers? or more like using regular shoe cream/polish ? )

                It's a wax tanned leather so you need to use a wax based polish.  We use Kiwi here…

                    Woooow. Holy guacamole! These boots are great. First time I saw them live in Gosport, I knew that they would be a part of my future. But dayum. After wearing sneakers only the last two years, these feel heavy and are in need of a serious break in. Thx at the crew for the great service as always.

                    why so serious?

                        I have some red wing beckman in 11,5 D and they are my best fit. Got these in 12 and the half size is needed. I have space in the front. My left foot is a little bit longer than my right. The upper front part of my left big toe touches the upper part of the toe box. But nothing uncomfortable and it should be okay when the upper leather is broken in a little bit.

                        @rocket : thx mate.

                        why so serious?

                          @daynym great investment. I remember discussing them with you in September. Happily the break in time is quicker than you’d think.

                            I think it was Adam Js pair which blew my ih-ale infested mind away. 🙂

                            The sole aleady got a tiny bit more flexible.

                                      Boom! Very nice indeed. How are finding the fit? And how are you getting on with your IHWE-5's?

                                        @neph93 Hi!
                                        The fit is OK, I think  🙂

                                        I usually use insoles, I have them in different thickness.
                                        I have minor issues with my left feet, it is not the same as right feet. the right feet fits perfectly, but left feet has issues with the height of toe-box, the big toe touches the top of toe-box and it could hurt after long walk.
                                        Looks like I will have to use the lightest insole that I have, or to use thous that were included to these boots.
                                        Or might be I needed the 0.5 size bigger or in E width… 😎 will see, maybe all I need is to wear them for some time, since this feedback is based on 1 day of use... leather has some tendency to stretch and adapt to your feet.

                                        Unfortunately I didn't used my 5's build a lot, I have too many boots  ::) and all require my attention...

                                          I do need to trim the laces a little bit.

                                            Haha mate. Same thing for me. My left foot is a little bit longer than my right foot. And my left big toe touches the upper part of the toe box, too. Maybe the toebox of this model tends to be kind of narrow because of the second layer of leather in the toe area. The toebox of my redwing gts is higher, but I think length is the same. So for me it is not possible to slip my toes to the front because the height is low.
