Redwing boots?

[krom415]

Need to buy a new set of work boots. looked at some nice redwings but they are pricey, so i guess my question is are they worth the extra coin?

 

[BIG HEAD CHRIS]

the most comfortable work boots ive ever bought. i used to wear em all the time instead of regular shoes. They hurt for the first day or so then its like butta!

 

[NEVER ENOUGH]

Yes, worth the $ to me. It's all I have been buying for years and I wear them everyday.

fwiw-
If they didn't tell you, they have some boots Made in the USA and some not if it matters to you. I always pay the extra for the American made, but that's me.

I bought a pair about 6 months ago. I will not be buying any other kind of boot again.

hello peoples: I should have my HD out this year and I need a boot. The sticker on the plate is from 04 so it's been a while but it s/b worth it.
The boot I was thinking about getting was the latest military issue. I read about it somewhere and it sounded like I should get some. I came to a dead end as they did not sell to the public if I remember correct. But it is suppose to keep you,cool,warm,dry and the balls.
try a search and see what you cum up with and let me know

I think there made in Framingham Mass. but that's probably wrongo

I used to work with construction guys that would pay $60 for a pair of dress shoes and then brag about buying Army surplus boots for work for $10.
Could never figure out why someone would pay 6x as much for something they wear maybe 6hr a week vs a boot they wear 10 hrs a day.

RR ballast eats soles. Could never find a shoe resoler that could replace the soles without creating a bumb in the arch.

I too have wore red wings off and on as well; I now wear Timberland shoes. I have to wear safety toe shoes and they are the lightest of any shoe I have worn. It really makes a difference when you are on concrete for 12.5hr a day.

Redwings are the best if you need a boot for rough service . Mine get soaked in water and oil then I may stand in a press until my feet get to hot to take it anylonger . I still get about 2 years out of the Redwings . They are not cheap but I would probably go through three or four pair of cheaper boots in the same time .

Had a new guy working with me once with a pair of Wal -Mart boots . When he steped off of the press platen he was leaving black goo from his melted shoe soles . By the time he got to his toolbox the soles were nearly gone .

I don't know what use your boots will be going through but at work I wear Carolina's. We have to wear steel toed with metatarsals. We have the Timberlands and I have had the Redwing worx and I feel the Carolina boots were a little more comfy but the redwings were great boots too.
