Second 8078 pair, Mocs or something completely different?

• Upvotes

Hey there, I recently got a pair of 8078s and I'm loving them. I want to get another pair of boots to wear in rotation though, and I wasn't sure what to get. They still have my size online for 8078s, or I could get Mocs at my local store. Or is there another style I should look at?

I really just wear them casually around and want to transition into good boots instead of sneakers. The answer will probably be it depends on what I want, but I'm not sure if I should get a second pair of the same to switch daily or just embrace different looks. I got the 8078s as my first pair of boots cause they were on sale and I love them.

Thanks!

I didn't need them. I couldn't quite afford them. But I have a problem and these are my glorious new boots.

Should I return these?

I purchased a pair of Iron Rangers listed as “new with defects” off of eBay. Prior to purchasing, I asked the seller what the defects were, and he said “minor scuffs on the side of the heel and side of the toe.”

I just got the pair and the right shoe has this pretty nasty crease across the top. I understand that leather creases and I am not turned off by creases in general, but is this normal? Trying to figure out if this is par for the course on Iron Rangers, or if I just got a defective pair that I should return. Thanks

Best heritage boot style?

2 Upvotes

Looking for a nice casual boot, but not sure what to get. I've looked into the different Red Wing boots, and honestly they all seem pretty similar. Which of the heritage boots is the best in y'alls opinion?

Also, if it helps, I have narrow feet so I'm a little limited in shoe options in general lol

1907 for office wear?

5 Upvotes

Does anyone wear their 1907s for office wear? I was looking to get a pair of 1907s for my desk job because the factory 2nds are more affordable than grant stones brass boots. Does the 1907 leather get fairly shinny at all or is the leather too tough?

I messed up I didn't let them dry off before putting shoe trees in and it trapped the moisture in my boots. I need honest answers. If these are done then they are done but being my first pair other than work boots, I would like to save these.

[Norway Mocs 8213] should I be worried about the seam coming apart?

I got these beautiful Norway Mocs yesterday and have worn them for about 5 hours. I noticed the seam on the toe box started to separate. I understand these are 2 pieces of leather stitched together, but am worried it will hurt the leather in wetter conditions. Any advice?

I just bought a blacksmith at a redwing store and loved it, went to Nordstrom rack in Schaumburg to get a backpack for our Japan trip and decided to browse the shoes section. I was really surprised they have this iron rangers, and a size 10! There’s a size 11 with the same color. This was a few days ago so goodluck! I’m in Japan now and will be wearing this for the whole 10 day trip.

I was going to post photos of some of the bick 4 on my boots before wiping in but was afraid that the post would be flagged for obscenity.

These boots were both new this year, with heavy use on a farm with really sandy soil which is why they have a sandblasted look on the toe, especially the 8847 Black Cherry.

These have been worn an average of every other day for five years. Just thought I’d post some well used boots to contrast all these perfect pairs y’all post,


r/RedWingShoes • • 1d ago

Look at the patina on these Red Wing 8111’s! This customer dropped these off to be resoled. We added a leather midsole and heel stack. Vibram 430 soles and fresh cork and we nailed the original holes on the welts.

Visited their new outlet store in Iruma just outside of Tokyo and was lucky enough to find the last 9875 in my size. I think they had more rare and interesting stuff in their grand opening but visited a week later.
