Time To Resole These Iron Ranger 8085 With My Favorite Vibram Soles/ 😅😅

[@sisleymichael]

My biggest complaint about Iron Rangers is the thin soles. Ouch. With a substantial resole like you did here, that is now a very fine boot. Looks great and should last a long time too.

[@FrayAdjacentTX]

Mine, too. When I resole mine, I want a leather midsole added, and I really like the gum colored sole he used on this pair!

[@romeoiipunzalan1079]

Is that the honey lug vibram sole?

[@user-gk4jd1jv4k]

YEP!!!

[@shakebake2680]

How much more comfortable is it with an added midsole?

[@sisleymichael]

@shakebake2680 The midsole adds to the separation of the foot from the ground. The thinner everything is from your foot to the ground, you will feel it. Also, those soles will make the feet feel nice.

[@wolfgangbarreto1833]

Those boots are 100% better than they were when they came out of the factory. You are a master of your craft.

[@AaronG2480]

🙏

[@makemyday44mag97]

You transform those boots into a pair of great hikers/traveling boots. Beautiful work, as always

[@Silver_Falcon_79]

Agreed.

[@AaronG2480]

Thank you very much!

[@tarasmathers7423]

Best outcome Ive seen yet from an Iron Ranger re-sole. Bravo👏👏👏. Magnificent work

[@AaronG2480]

🙏

[@MarkCCandelaCPA]

Love that bit of a cowboy boot heel rake. Adds a little flow and balance to the back of the boot. Nice work

[@thenoneckpeoplerepresentat8074]

I’m saving this video for when it’s time to resole mine. You’re a true craftsman, beautiful work and great video.
Thank you good Sir!

[@MrSanemon]

I really appreciate how you wrap the shanks before putting them back in the shoe. A lot of cobblers just leave them bare when they put them back.

[@fritopg285]

Amazing work, I especially like the fact that you cleaned before the rebuild and oiled after you were done, you don't see a lot of thies other places doing that, they might but you'd never know it. Thank you for taking the time to make the video

[@AaronG2480]

Thank you 🙏 for watching!

[@-M-A-B-]

Very nicely done! That's a tough looking sole, which I'm sure will serve your customer very well. I didn't know Vibram made a gum-rubber colored sole. They certainly have something for everyone. Great job, Aaron!

[@AaronG2480]

🙏🙏

[@robnewlee1787]

My favorite sole...yeah right. Ha! Another great job!

[@TheDagraner4576]

Love the heel work on this pair. They're a real pair of stompers now.

[@constantgardener4517]

Again! A pair of IR’s I’d almost buy.
They make em’ for same price with this or equivalent sole and I’d have a hard time saying NO!
Nice work my man.

[@brycecrousore1985]

Gorgeous! Ready for Rocky Mountain highs!

[@Thaib0xer69]

That is a great looking combination!!!

[@ike780]

For the price of iron rangers, you'd think they'd at least put a 4 mill leather midsole.

[@Dukeofmamucas]

I think they look cool doctored up. Both the Ir and Mocs are like a blank canvas. Granted you can order a pair of nicks with your own personal touches for the cost of an Red Wing plus all the cobbler labor

[@nickyeah5175]

Outstanding work!

[@wadejensen3301]

They look great Sir....well done and more power to you!

[@AaronG2480]

[@raymondasperas2739]

[@scottdavenport1833]

[@saltymakerreed5983]

[@jvaughn090284]

Absolutely a beautiful repair/make over. Well done sir

[@AaronG2480]

🙏

[@FrayAdjacentTX]

I kinda like the gum soles! Maybe I'll go with that when my 8085s need a resole!

[@jpking0512]

I'd buy a pair of Iron Rangers if they had that sole.

[@halcondorado9851]

[@cjanquart]

I've seen you take these apart so many times that I think I can do it (even with my limited tools) and save you a bit of time for a resole 😆

[@AaronG2480]

😅 taking anything apart is always easy 🖐🏻

[@bronzeback29]

Does Vibram offer a cristy sole in that color? Gum sole color and stickiness are my fav. Boot looks amazing.

[@AaronG2480]

No they don’t make anything like that.
Thanks

[@MrSilvervw]

Fantastic content 👌 👏 👍

[@Manlopsan2]

Qué guapas han quedado

[@83javito]

Que guapas han quedado, es como una segunda vida, cero que han quedado mejor que nuevas, las arrugas del uso con la suela nueva adquieren un caracter muy bonito, saludo y gran trabajo.

[@tims708]

[@AaronG2480]

[@guri131]

Hi, big fan of your work.
When you stitch the soles on , won’t the thread wear out fast as it’s directly in touch with the ground

[@leroidelacanau4309]

Got the same question ... what the use or function of that ? Can imagine that it connect better the outer-sole onto the mid-sole ... but is gluing not enough ? Certainly if you're adding screws. In fact have the same question with adding the screws ??? or is this just for esthetical reasons ?

[@jakesteele7069]

Good work!! Could I send a pair or two out soemtime to have them done? Thank you!! Let me know please

[@Silver_Falcon_79]

Ready to hike.

[@charlesw665]

What did you wrap around the shank? And what was the piece of leather you added inside the boot?

[@joe_ferreira]

Red wing wraps the shank with cloth to prevent squeaking. The piece of leather is a cover. So you don't stand on the nails. The redwing one was probably wore out.

[@drunkinmaster1]

How much does a resole like this cost? I have a pair of Iron Rangers that id love to have this done

[@RedwoodEmpire925]

Im wondering the same thing myself!?

[@thejakein7867]

Resole is usually about $80

[@joe_ferreira]

​@@thejakein7867depends on if the welt gets replaced.

[@valentinmateos6501]

[@HughBrown-cf8ry]

[@MrKinghuman]

Do you do mail in resoles? I have a pair of 8085s that i need this done to. But woth a black outsole. Please reply

[@majestictwelve3483]

[@mightyhavan]

hey man, I live overseas but if i sent my Red Wings would you do a resole service for me ? i am gladly paying all the expense from sent and receiving plus the cost of replacing the sole itself. I watch so many of your videos and knowing a good cobbler with proper tools resole my boots. Are there any specific website or email so i can discuss with you more about ?

[@666Necropsy]

my favorite as well

[@666Necropsy]

i want to get my grant stone resoled with these

[@javzee2315]

Why the screws?

[@BreakerBreaker1-9ine]

What kind of soap is that?

[@user-gk4jd1jv4k]

VERY NICE! These soles are a little softer than the blacks so they're a little easier to work with eh!!!??? 👍👍👍👍

[@AaronG2480]

Slightly softer!

[@user-gk4jd1jv4k]

@@AaronG2480Yes indeed which may make them better than the blacks because they have a little more give to them!!!???

[@stevej.6674]

Wow I cannot believe I found this video as these are the soles I’ve been trying to imagine on my roughout iron rangers! I want to uses my rangers as actual work boots, but the factory soles are just pissy & more for the average day man or office worker.

[@paulcaban4881]

How much for that exact resole compañero? Yo quiero eso para mis botas.

[@Andres-qg4rd]

Quedaron geniales, que usas para lavar las botas, alguna opción casera?

[@AaronG2480]

No se le ocurra usar otra cosa que no sea saddle soap/jabon de calabaza
Gracias

[@HUGUITOXIII]

D qu medida son los tornillos qu usas para las suelas

[@MiguelRodriguez-jx1gr]

what product do you use to wash/clean the boots?

[@joe_ferreira]

Saddle Soap. Friebrings white can is what most people use.

[@John-uh5et]

How much would this kind of job cost?

[@moisesmera7913]

Why is it your favorite sole? That one is quite good as it has some cushion which the original lacked. Also good traction

[@AaronG2480]

I was being sarcastic, I actually hate the vibram 100 JMHO
They are hard to sand and take longer than the rest of the Vibram soles
Thank you for watching 🙏

[@larsvegas838]

New to shoes so sorry if my comment is rather off, but why not keep the previous rand? Did not look that bad according to me? But great job and nice video! (:

[@joe_ferreira]

The customer wanted to change the color of the welt and the rand.

[@Carlu117]

Que padres quedaron! Tengo unas blacksmith casi no las uso por que se me hacen muy duras, y tengo unas Irish Settlers que puedo usar por horas y no me cansan, que suelas recomendarías, las que instalaste en este video o la suela suave de las Irish Settlers para hacer la bota más cómoda?

[@AaronG2480]

Gracias
Esto no es cómodo para nada , o más bien dicho estas suelas no son para ti
Tus botas de trabajo traen suelas suaves y tus blacksmith suelas de hule delgada y sin midsoles eso lo hace peor.
Saludos!

Sir, what does vibram call that sole I actually do really like it

It is the vibram 100 Montagna

[@MachineGod69]

Better now in every way. Why can’t RW make a boot already like this.

[@yalc_banger]

Do you guys take resole work from Canada?

[@AaronG2480]

We take it from anywhere but shipping it’s expensive.
If you allow me I highly recommend you you this master he’s in Canadá
