    I went ahead and purchased this boot as a replacement for some RW shoes that disintegrated on the soles. I liked those shoes, they were light, steel toed, and still looked good after 7 or 8 years, but the blow molded soles seem to have a shelf life and when they fail it's not good around mesquite thorns. The full cost of the RR SAP621 was $128.88, the price had gone up, $109.54 with the veteran discount through govx link. I don't wear a wide shoe, so we'll see if they are true to size for my foot. Follow up: I wasn't expecting these this fast but they showed up today and they fit true to size, wiggle room in the toes, good support around the ankles and comfortable to walk in. Almost makes me want to come out of retirement. Almost. Update: I've been working on the two properties wearing these SAP621. I've noticed the speed hooks rotating and the tongue leather thickness on one is thinner than the other, but other than that, they are holding up fine. I've done fence work, lawn work, vehicle maintenance, and six hours of driving to the other property and back to mow and trim. No regrets on this purchase and no problems with comfort.

  • @douglasncarter

    Came across your channel because I'm searching out boots that can be repaired vs throwaways. We had a hurricane come through a month ago and it did a number on trees in the area. While I was cutting up a tree for a few hours, the Carhardts, which I hadn't worn but maybe 10 times in the past 10 years, decided to do a sole disappearing act on me in the middle of the task. They couldn't be repaired due to the design according to the local cobbler. What a waste of a good upper and they were fairly comfortable with the soles intact. Lesson learned, welt construction only from here on out. Retirement doesn't give reimbursement on work shoes/boots and stomping on a shovel barefoot ain't an option. Your channel is helpful, I've considered the SAP621 and will probably get a pair to stick in my truck at least for emergencies.

Glad I didn’t waste time and money on these.

      @handy_man9157 no, I'm saying when they stretched the leather over the last to glue it they did a bad job. You can see on the toe box on the bottom where it was folded over and not stretched enough over to make it smooth. Honestly, you should just pull the trigger on some White's Perry moc toes. They went on sale not that long ago for 270, they usually are 320. But the quality of leather and construction is a couple steps above a redwing moc toe.

Not sure if I want to go with a wedge sole moc toe if I spend that kind of money though. Debating a more typical PNW boot style. I'm no expert on boot making so probably why I missed the lasting issue. Still learning

    The issue with Chinese products is that they have a stigma of being terrible quality and stuff, but if you look, you will find some great Chinese made products (just like anywhere in the world quality is a sliding scale) look into Luos Jiet or maybe Grant Stone if you want date night boots. If you want the highest end Chinese boots XBXSboots, however, these are more European stylings.
