    I love the Redwing 877 if I could skip the break in period. Thorogood has little to no break in. So. I wear my 877 everywhere except work. Work I wear my Thorogoods.

    So these boots would not be ideal for logging?

    • @lukecmarcotte
      @lukecmarcotte Рік тому

      Would highly recommend to not use in any instance you are not working on flat surfaces or dirt, and keep away from anything slippery. They are great boots for what they are for, but Logging traditionally has higher heels and deeper treads for working in those conditions for traction. These boots are more so for comfort & Durability in construction trades.

    went to try these on at boot barn and i was blown away at how comfortable they were. just debating now on the color I want and whether I want the wide or the regular fit Would you happen to know if the regular fit ones would stretch a little? I like them tight but they are just a little too tight on the top

    • @adamswaz4878
      @adamswaz4878 2 роки тому

      They do stretch, dont get wide cause the top rubs a little it will probably be the same issue. You can get the steel toe that def makes the toe area higher

  • @jedwards100able
    @jedwards100able 2 роки тому

    Sounds like you should order a pair of American hand made Nick Boots. That way you can custom order a pair Moc boots any arch support, leather, color, welt sole, heritage sole, hardware, ect. It may cost $500-600 but you take care if them they last you decades. They sell them size 3-15 widths from B-FF. I feel you about the dog my English Mastiff as a young puppy ate my $400 boots. Luckily my high school English teacher & her husband retired from teaching when her father in-law passed & left them his shoe repair shop. She fixed them for price of leather.
