Yeah I’m 14 fixing to work for a guy where it is required to have steel toe work boots so I was looking around and you know not having a real need for good reliable boots I never needed a good pair until now and the number one brand I’ve heard that’s reliable is red wing so right now I’m saving up to get a pair of them
Whats great about red wings is that because they are built in a traditional fashion, they can be serviced by any old cobbler/shoe maker. Unlike most of the newer boots that just fall apart and are built to be thrown away, rather than repaired. I just got my first pair finally, and already love them after only 3 days (34.5 hours) of work in them! I got the gortex, and they are completely water proof!
I resole mine and replace the foot bed. Note, replace the sole before it wears through. Usually one resole is all I do. After that, the leather stinks too much. 8 year shoe. Finest boot ever made. Red Wing #2412. Roofers, get the toe protector.
I have had my Redwing logger for around the same lasting time with all of them especially if you live close to a Red Wing dealer they will baby your boots and replace shoelaces when ever you want also rewaterproof them for no charge ..
Is that continuous use, or off and on use? I'm asking because I'm seriously contemplating getting a pair of redwings for myself, and if a pair will last 6 years of almost daily use then I'm getting some the next chance I get.
a well worked boot! I love the King Toe. I usualy replace mine after 3 to 4 years give or take. But I have a bad knee and walk funny and have to get into messes that make the boot nasty after a while. You can only clean it so much. Not a tough of a boot as yours, No where near but as comfortable as it gets. Looking at your boots im going to guess the king toe would last 2 years on you.
I got the exact same shoe, got them fall 2014 still have them now 2021, but mine look wayy better than yours kuz every few months i use saddle soap and condition them with huberds or howards leather conditioner and good to go. You can actually still clean those old ones up really good and still last you alot longer
Bro I found out after my first year of owning my first pair of worx redwing from my local shop I was told to bring them in anytime to get oiled or cleaned. They were yellow now they true color is brown ish
Red Wing Shoes Work line of boots: all low quality except for the USA made models. Heritage line of boots: all USA made and great but aren’t comfortable enough for work although they are tough enough.
Yes. A little over $100, we can send the old ones off to Red Wing to be resoled, cleaned, and reconditioned. For another $30 you can add some tuff toe to the front and get even more life out of the old boots. Then you can have two pair to swap on a daily basis and increase the life out of both pair. Our little saying at our little store in Louisiana is, “you change your shirt every day, you change your pants everyday, but we wear the same boots everyday and our boots are what take all the abuse.” I’m proud to watch such positive responses from customers, especially when they were on the fence about spending their hard earned money on a premium product. It always feels good when you get a good return on your investment! Great review!
Redwing 🤣 👌. I take it you're not aware of boots such as Nick's, Wescos, White's, or Hoffman?? You happy with boots that lasted 6 years? Try a pair that'll last 20.
Thanks man I got 2 cheap pairs in 5 months didn’t wanna spend money but did it hoping it was worth it and this makes me feel better about spending thst money 😵💫👊😅😎

I got 10 years out of my 2406’s and that was with one resole. Just bought my third pair. (The first lasted 6 years.)

Hose the dirt off and oil them every month or so and they'll last even longer.
The more well worn, beat up, broken in, dirty the boot, the more I like.

I have red wings on my feet Right now I like them I'm going to condition them in the spring.
Well worth the money!
The best boots..I particularly own three pairs..
The tough toe would’ve saved the toe
Worn thru toe is called character....of a hard worker man...
like others said, theres stil life in those. tough tough a cleaning, and a conditioning

Yes they might be tough but there is one thing the last that it was made on is no good, I can explain if need be
wow. great.

Mine looked like that after 10months. Sewage and all the chemicals just eat shit away. Thank god work hands boots out like candy
For $100 bucks they would have cleaned it for you and resoled it
i did not know that. But how long does that take?

Great review!
@@darrellswanberg1211 yea man, redwings has pretty awesome benefits
Was just told by RW. That it's 125.00
Thinking about getting another pair?
Great review.... what size do those happen to be.
Those are 13
Now a days the junk 3, 4 or 6 month boots are 150 to 200 dollars. What a scam

Yes some US made boots will last much longer then Red wings
@@andrewfried3144 Red Wing have some US made boots
Most people don’t want to spent $600 to $750 for boots .
Thanks man I got 2 cheap pairs in 5 months didn’t wanna spend money but did it hoping it was worth it and this makes me feel better about spending thst money 😵💫👊😅😎
