I was selected for jury duty , I wore my iron rangers with blue jeans , for the jurors selection . I got compliments from several people there , one of the deputy sheriff officer asked me what brand are my boots . I told him red wing iron ranger 8111 , he took pictures of my boots because he gonna buy a pair for him , I love my boots 🥾
That's a really great story!! Thanks for sharing.
@@GentlemansJourney thank for your review your channel is awesome keep ‘em coming good Sir
The fact that it can be resoled is fantastic. After you beat them up for a few years, a good cobbler can give them a completely new life with a new sole.
Couldn't agree more! Already thinking of which direction I'll take them. Cheers man.
A few years?! Not with the frequency I'm wearing mine. The black ones are my babies. Spare not the neatsfoot oil conditioner. 🇨🇦
Just got a pair and love them. Haven't got them through the break in faze yet but so far I'm more then pleased with the build quality of these boots.
Hey congratulations mate!!
The Wyatt & Dad cobbler UA-cam videos with customized iron rangers are probably the best on the internet. I love my IR too and can’t wait to try a few customizations when resole time gets here. Thanks for the great content
Cheers for watching 🥾🥾
Really appreciate your genuine enthusiasm and appreciation for the craftsmanship. I’ve been seeking out IR reviews in the interest of buying a pair. Thanks for your review!
Appreciate those kinds words, they keep me going! Still think these are a great boot for the mid range price point and let me know if you end up getting a pair. Leaning toward a particular color?
@@GentlemansJourney not sure yet! One thing I like about IRs is the ability to try them on.
Love my IR too! It’s great how you highlight the value, even compared to the price. I think it would be fun to keep a tracker on each update video to show per month cost, just to keep emphasizing that over time it’s cheaper to own these than recycle poor quality. Thank you!
Thanks for dropping this comment, I like your idea! Cheers Angelo 🥾🥾
What a lovely channel! Your (knowledgeable) enthusiasm for these boots is so infectious :) but, as someone who’s just picked up his own pair of Iron Rangers, I can see where you’re coming from
Awesome! Congrats on the new boots. Appreciate your kind words 🥾🥾
Like I said on the other video, those 1 year reviews are really helpful. Real world experience is hard to beat.
And its always good to see a pair of 8111s. Mine are 4 months old now, and I love them. Only thing I would add is a leather midsole, so when the first resole comes I'll definitely do that. I think the Vibram 430 is a perfect match for the IR, not too bulky like the lug soles but still grippy enough for everyday use.
Thanks again! That outsole really grew on me a lot. It does get old having rocks stuck in my lug outsoles. 🥾🥾
Awesome review.
Think I've decided this is the boot for me.
Without a doubt these look way better used than new. Love them new but the way they're presented in this video looks amazing
I’m really happy with how mine are aging and I’ve been throwing a lot at them lately! Thanks for watching and taking time to comment! 🥾🥾
Nice review. I have a blacksmith 3345 which I wear for almost 2 years. Not exactly everyday, usually during cold weathers like autumn and winter, and I think I already wear it for like 360 days. I’m satisfied with my pair of boot because it is tough enough to withstand thousand push ups, burpees, and mountain climbers and I’m using it at work, and casual events. And at the same time comfortable and stable enough to wear for around 8 to 12hrs of work and it doesn’t give me smelly feet.
Sounds like a great all around boot!! I have the blacksmith on my list for sure. Thanks for watching and catch ya on the next video
Greetings from Chile I love the motivation you provide to make the videos, you make them very entertaining to watch and the material you provide is very good, it is an excellent channel and I wish you the best, God bless you and keep it up.✌🏻
Blessings brother! My wife is from Chile! Viva Chile!! Glad you found the channel and we intend to keep the videos coming. Blessing
Iron ranger fan here. Great video! 👍
Cheers mate!! Thanks for watching and I’ll catch ya in the next one
Loving mine! Swapped my laces to leather laces!
That's a great look. Cheers for watching Rudy.
I was thinking on my rovers, once the sole wears out, will be switching to vibram V 100s but the natural rubber the ones they call the honeycomb. I heard good things about that sole. Nice work on your videos keep up the good work👍👍
Appreciate you taking time to watch! Send pics of that resole to my Facebook or Instagram when you do it! 🥾🥾🪓
I’ve seen a few iron ranger with the 100 lug and they look awesome. But these boots look awesome with any sole on them.
I've definitely considered that route.
I agree about getting your boots off after a days work except for my 1907s from redwing. I could sleep in those they are so comfortable. I love my iron rangers but after a day of work on concrete, I am ready to get them off.
I'll have to get into a pair of 1907's!!
Great video Nick. love your content
I appreciate that! I'm Charles. Catch ya on the next video.
I have Coppers / Oxbloods and am expecting some Slate Muleskinners this week. I wear mine in summer and Canadian winter through search warrants, tons of driving and foot pursuits. Solid Boots that get lots of compliments.
Love that! That is a true review there!! Cheers
Great video. I just found the Wyatt and dad channel and they do some awesome looking resoles for the iron rangers
Could certainly be a great collaboration video when these guys are ready for a resole.
There are a few good cobblers that have UA-cam videos. At least a dozen good Iron Ranger videos with various varieties of soles I found entertaining.🇨🇦
Nice! I've got to tell you, I've got an embarrassing number of Red Wing boots, but for some reason, the Iron Rangers (8085's) seem to call out to me the most. No! I'm not hearing voices in my head. At least not right now. Maybe it's the number 8 last that fits my foot so well or it's the way they go with almost everything that I wear. They are the first Red Wings I bought and just like you said, I lusted after them for a good long while before taking the plunge. Now I'm neck deep and still go back to the IR"s. BTW, the blacksmiths (3340's)and Round toes (8196) fit A LOT like the Iron Rangers, but the hopelessly casual look of them makes them the most used of my collection. Also, I have friends that bought Thorogood and Carolinas around the same time that I bought my IR's and they've already bought replacement pairs. Quality of build really makes the value per dollar on these, and just about any Red Wing absolutely undeniable. Keep on Truckin', young man.
Hey really good to hear from you, sounds like you have one heck of a collection! Appreciate you watching the channel and I'll be putting some new stuff up soon. Cheers.
Hello from NH! I noticed your IR appear darker than they were in the cleaning video you did earlier on these... Did you end up Mink oiling them after all? Or is it just the lighting? Thanks man, great video!
No mink oil on these, probably just initial color change and after it dries it went back.
Traveling business that’s awesome. What do you do? Ever gonna actually take the blundstones for an adventure? They work well for what I need them for.
I may have to get back into a pair of Blundstones due to popular demand. We have a traveling craft fair business selling custom metal signs. Cheers Tony!
Wore Red Wings for years until they discontinued the boot I wore (looked like an 8" Iron Ranger). I would get two years out of them wearing them daily on concrete and catwalks. Thursdays are more of a dress boot. They have a completely different look and easier break in. For $200 Thursdays rock. Nick's are in a different class than either Red Wing or Thursday.
Nicks and Franks are stitchdown construction, Red Wings are Goodyear Welted. Hence the two rows of stitching.
Thanks for watching 🥾🥾
You can take it to Red Wing to get Cleaning & Conditioning and new Laces.. I do it 1- 2 times a year. I just drop them off 4 pairs at a time. When I pick up then I drop off the other 4 pairs. My Nicks and White don't offer this kind of services and I paid almost double in price for them. That's why I got so much Red Wing
Mans got a point!
Got my RW iron rangers 8111 about 2 months ago. I was surprised how well they fit and how grippy the sole was. The only caveat I have is that the heel is hard so walking all day will be a little hard on your foot and the shaft of the boot is not profiled enough to match the natural curve of the heel/ankle area. When the sole and heel wears out, I will probably recraft them with a leather midsole, a poron filler for better shock absorption and a honey lug half sole with matching built up leather stack honey lug heel. That should make them much easier on the foot and heel. It is not the best boot in my collection but it is up there and has made it to my regular weekly 5 boot rotation along with it's brother, the 875 moc toe. Honestly, the way I take care of my boots, these should last me at least 10 years probably 20 years. The Red Wing company heritage line really makes some sturdy and nice looking boots, love this company.
A lotta people are saying the same thing about being hard to walk on with the heel. Sounds like you have a great growing boot collection and growing. I like your idea to re-craft these at some point. Thanks for watching.
I might go with the V Bar t keep the same look but add durability.
That's a top contender, especially since I haven't owned that outsole yet. Thanks for watching.
Great video! Any chance of an update for the thorogood moc toes?
I'll definitely be doing the one year on those. I gotta say, I've had a great experience with them. Not solid work boots as they may be marketed but they are great multi purpose boots for me.
@@GentlemansJourney My wife just bought me a pair. I'm a UPS driver and have always worn wolverine boots. This is my first pair of thorogoods and after 3 weeks they've been great. I'm just hoping they hold up.
Just bought some 8084s. Gave them a layer of renapur and breaking them in around the house.
That's a wonderful thing! Congrats and those ought to do you good mate.
Hi, hello from Indonesia. I have 8111 too. I love it so much. Just want to ask you. What is your oppinion on using snoseal to water proof your boot. It darken the leather so much and it seems like it will darken the leather permanently.
On a pure workbook I would say go for it. I use that stuff. If you want to keep the patina then I'd not go that direction, too dark.
I just purchased a pair of these on eBay. I was hesitant to order them in size 10D but from what I've seen it's recommended to order them a half to a full size smaller than my normal size 10.5. I can't send them back when I get them so I hope this is true because I cannot stand shoes that are too cramped in the toe. What's your experience been with the sizing? Thanks
I had often wore size 12 tennis shoes, I measure just, just below a 12 on one foot and right at 12 on the other and I comfortably wear 11 In Ion Rangers, so technically full size disk for me. I wear 11 in nicks. I got 11.5 in Franks and will be running an insole in those. I’ll be doing a video on that insole. If you need one I went with the buffalo wool co. Size13 in the thicker 8mm option
I was pretty sure that I would buy myself some 1907, but every time I see the iron ranger…… I guess I finally will buy both 🙈🙈
There are seven days in a week, you can rotate!! 🥾🥾
great video from the UK dude
Cheers man, thanks me for watching! 🥾🥾
Are looking to resolve the iron ranger when the time comes? If so which some will you go with
Might do a lug outsole
Love my 2 pairs of Iron Rangers - 8085 Copper Rough & Tough and 8086 Charcoal Rough & Tough. Bought these in 2017 & 2018 and these boots are still going strong plus they wear and look amazing. I also have a pair of 9011 Beckman in Black Cherry Featherstone and 3141 Heritage Work Chukka in Briar Oil Slick but it’s the Iron Rangers that get the most wear between the months of October - April in Scotland 😅
Great to hear from ya! Thanks for watching 🥾🥾
Great review. Definitely not that bulbous compared to some other boots. I really want a pair at some point.
You should! I love the heck out of them. I'd say they are certainly worth the money after my first year in them. Appreciate ya watching mate.
Be careful. As once you get a pair broken in, you'll be asking yourself what colour do I want next. I've had mine for about six months and they are beasts.🇨🇦
@@matttherrien9608 I hear ya there.
I wish they would cut a channel for the outsole stitching.
I see what you mean, maybe its a stylistic decision? I got into leather craft pretty heavy and I cut a channel when stitching leather knife sheaths. Thanks for watching!
How do you decide which boots to wear in the morning?
Great question. It's often what boot I'm trying to review. However, it could depend on what type of work or activity I am doing that day. I am currently traveling and therefore I only have a few of the boots I own. Crazy life that UA-cam Boot Reviewer type of lifestyle... Cheers Lenard, always great to hear from you mate.
I have the exact same boot with the mini lug and I do not like that mini lug sole, it’s way too hard, mine are five years old and it’s not showing the slightest bit of wear except for the stitching around the sides. Walking on a hard surface sounds like you got hard plastic soles. Thinking about getting them re-sold even though they don’t need it, maybe going with 100 lug
I am thinking along the same line of thought, 100 lug!
Are they narrow in the width and are they had to break in ?
Mine are not narrow and felt very easy to break in.
Since you’ve had them so far have the tongue worn any holes in them at all?
Just started happening. I may look into getting a new pair of speed hooks on there. The back of the speed hook digs in 🙁🙁
@@GentlemansJourney sorry to hear about man, I’m thinking of getting iron ranger the 8083’s Hawthorne muleskinners rough out boots instead of the 8111’s maybe the roughout will be more wear/abrasive resistant where it doesn’t wear out the tongue you know?
Nice
Thanks for watching!
I really like my iron ranger’s but I don’t like how much noise the heel makes on the ground
Haven’t noticed much, probably all I’ll hear next time I walk now 😊🤔
Try a British boot. Grenson,Trickers etc. Another level completely.
Really appreciate that comment, I'm intrigued for sure.
Those brands lack the roughed look of the iron ranger.
@@Theotherside76 Hard to beat an American Icon!!
Muito Bom! SP/Brasil
Good to have ya on here mate!
They are pretty much the same as the ww2 service shoe's
Hey thanks for watching 🥾🥾
Beat it in every category including : clown boot category.
Hey, cheers for watching!
I am so tried of people talking about Thursday boots. They are hideous and feminine. No thanks.
Fairy boots compared to these, surely.🇨🇦
Thanks for watching and I'm loving my Iron Rangers!!
