Red Wing Classic Moc Style 875 Boot Review - For the first episode of the Moc Toe Boot Series I am cutting up the iconic Red Wing Classic Moc. First introduced in the 50's as a hunting boot, 70 years later is now a fashion staple for a lot men. I bought a pair to cut apart and review to see how it is built and review this heritage red wing boot to see if it retains the it's hard working and durable reputation.

stop selling out to sponsors my guy
They look like little ARMY tanks for your feet!!!
u should get a pair of die hard moc toes from sears
Red wings have been good for me for a while. My work covers them for safety. I use the Irish shetters.
Great video
I work at Red Wing in the welt department and make these almost every day. I need to correct you on one thing. The welt is stitched on with the black thread you see, into the rib beneath the insole. The midsole (that thin, almost invisible layer beneath the welt) is stitched onto the welt with the white thread that runs around the top of the welt. Glad to see people enjoying the stuff I help make 👍
im a redwing lovers from china，i want to buy rw from you，and，can we have a conversation? or just make a friends?
👊💪
Thanks for making the stuff we enjoy 👍
Can you hook me with some of these boots
Whoever is putting a new sole on my boots need to hurry up. It’s been 5 weeks now I’m told it’ll be 8 weeks :( if I have to wear my docs to work 3 more weeks I might cry 😂
I'm honestly okay with sponsors. You're going to be cutting the shoes in half. There's nothing to hide,. If a company is willing to pay for you to show the world the flaws in their products, more power to you.
Agreed
Seriously? It completely defeats the purpose of a review to be sponsored by the company who makes the product. They have those already--they're called advertisements. He was obviously picking and choosing when to criticize random shit, like sneaker shanks and chrome tanning. Personally, I haven't watched a Rose Anvil video in months because I was tired of the bias. Now that I know he's not taking sponsors, I'm definitely gonna keep up with the channel.
Sponsors affect objectivity
I agree, especially given how expensive these shoes are. I understand he makes money from the videos but that’s still a lot of overhead cost.
@@remb9614 lol not a lot of overhead, and the shoes are not that expensive.
When I graduated High School and told my Dad I hated school and he didn't need to worry about sending me to college - he went and got me a big old used Snap-On toolbox and a pair of Red Wing Boots. Been happy ever since.
Good dad
@@anon2427 I live in the town I was born in, and oldsters call me by my Dad's (r.i.p.) name and then apologize. I tell 'em happens all the time and I don't mind I take it as a compliment.
Aaaaand - thanks. Nice of you to say so.
The real American dream right there. Thank you for sharing your story.
My kind of Dad.
Snap-on a man of taste 👌
I would pay $80-$100 for a pair a boots once or twice a year. Always buying a new brand or model trying to find something better. One day my wife said to try on some redwings. They were $225. I ended up buying them. I’ve had the same pair for 4 years and they’re still great. Definitely the best bang for buck boots I’ve found. $200 a year, every single year on carhardt or Cat boots. Or $225 for 4 + years. No brainer
Agreed, it definitely depends on your work load you put on your boots. 4 years is amazing. Anything beyond that is icing.
I just spent over $400 on a new pair of Red Wings pull on boots, we’ll see it’s my first pair I’ve always been an Ariat fan.
@@soulesslemming I’ve been wearing ariat steel toes for a while but I always have trouble with the inside lining where your heel slips in comes loose and I have to cut it out to get my foot out😂
I was the same- would get a pair of timberlands every year or maybe every two years. I figured they were better value than trainers/sneakers but their price kept rising and the quality didn’t… I also never looked after them.
My gf got me some Red Wings to celebrate my 10 years of sobriety in the new year and I’m sold on them- and already looking at other colours just 7 months later.
As I get older, better quality classic pieces make so much more sense. “Buy well, buy once.”
Carhartt boots are shameful. You did the right thing going with Redwing
Honestly i had no problem with the sponsors, especially when you see how expensive some of these boots can get
On one hand I understand for him, the financial aspect of it, the problem is you let the company hand pick their product so it might not be representative of what the average consumer experience with the brand might be. Also even if I do believe in his integrity I can understand why someone would think he might be less incline to criticize the company that sponsored him. I personally don’t care either way, but I understand people who feel that way.
He makes enough to buy any boot just on youtube revenue he just greedy
yeah it’s a clear conflict of interest. turns the whole thing into an advert. That’s why the companies do it and that’s how psychology works.
@@texas3258 UA-cam pays next to nothing and find anyway they can to demonetize.So unless you are getting millions of hits per video you're not going to be rich.
@@MrMadvillan why would being sponsored by a mattress company affect a review he does in boots?
Take any sponsorship you can, I trust your integrity and reviews.
If you’re gonna be buying Redwings (especially if it’s for work) it is totally worth a trip to one of their stores for a proper fitting. The service people are exceptional and know what they are doing (also, the custom insoles make a huge difference if you are wearing these 8+ hours a day). As others have said, a little more expensive but much more comfortable and durable than any other boot I’ve worn.
Thank you for advice, will follow it.
I got my foot measured, got my boots, couldn't wear them more than 2 hours due to friction of my pinky toes, had to go and replace for a bigger number, thankfully the retail employees were super chill about it
@@cdl93I had similar issue. They said I was close to a wide measurement but insisted the extra width would look sloppy. 3 pairs of 875’s later I said to hell with it and went E2. Whether or not my foot is wide they should know the 875’s run narrow. I feel the stores did me a disservice.
I'm an automotive technician and bought my first pair of Red Wings around 1985. Over 35 years later, they are still the only brand I wear. Just had my current pair resoled. That pair is going on 15 years. Best books ever made!
15 years??? Damn!!!
I’d be around 15 years as well but they wouldn’t resole my last two pairs. Now I’m in the market for another brand which sucks because I love my Redwings.
I am looking into a 11inch. Steel toe. Nice laces. Any suggestions in Red Wing?
As an Ironworker I can say great boots but for my trade they go a lot quicker then that. I probably buy boots 2 maybe 3 times a year cause the soles and stitching blows out the sides from sparks
My current Red Wings are about 10-15 years old but I only use them one in a while. I think they are worn out but they are better than having wet feet.
Not an ad every 3 minutes, give aways, and solid info. This is the UA-camr we need. 👊🏽 Rose Anvil 2020!!

I have a pair of loggers that are 40 yrs old, been resoled 6 times, still going strong
Who do you use for resole
Long ago I bought a pair. They not only cured my aching feet but wore like a tank. They also paid for themselves quickly. Sadly I never wore them out because due to an accident caused by someone else, I became a paraplegic and no longer needed them. But if I hadn't, I would stillmbexwearing them 20 years later.

I owned 2 pair of these exact boots, I bought them in the 90's. Back then the quality was excellent. They become a part of your body once they are walked in. They will survive everything that you throw at them. They will get scratched, worn down but you'll love them just the same.
The best shoes I have ever worn.
Subscribed for your integrity about sponsors en choosing to earn less money by doing the right thing! Refreshingly honest.
Congrats
When I was young and starting out in the working world I was told by an old timer that only two things would allow me to keep going. A good pair of work boots and a good mattress.
It's because when you are not in one, you are in the other. Meaning when you're not working, you should be resting and should invest into a quality comfy bed. And when you're not working, you will be working so invest in quality comfy shoes
Was the old timer that consistent comment on every BIFL related thread on Reddit?

As a retired shipyard sandblaster, I SWEAR by Red Wing Boots...the absolute lightest boots I have EVER worn in my life..going up and down scaffolding, crawling around decks, the MOST roughest work situations you could imagine, my Red Wings kept my feet so comfy and safe..God bless this company...Not cheap, but you get so much comfort and safety out of their boots...Bravo !!!
Just don't work around welding, torch, etc. The sparks and slag stick in the moc toe and melt the nylon laces. Speaking from experience ...
"Most roughest."
LOL
i guess you never owned Wolverines
My bf had some redwing boots custom fitted for himself. He was in taekwando and has a habit of not lifting his feet as frequently as most people. He was also a tall guy so his feet and shoes needed to support a lot of weight. He was so upset when he lost those boots while moving. I'd never seen a pair of shoes last him that long without ANY tangible wear and tear. He would run through shoes like no other but those redwings lasted 5 years with him until he lost them
I wear red wings Irish setter version of these for work (I work at a garden center on my feet in water and dirt all day lifting and climbing) and I love them!! Worth every penny and I live in Minnesota so I’m happy to support a made in America brand.
I always thought it was Croctober

Hahaha that April fools video was so funny!
I thought it was Spocktober.....
though I've heard people call it Rocktober.....

I've been wearing Redwings for about 40 years. I've tried other popular brands here abd there, but I've always come back to Redwings. They're comfortable and last a long time.
I just started in the aviation industry, so I know I'll be on my feet all day. Bought 2 pairs of BRNR, XP, Red Wings, One pair of Timberland Boondocks and a pair of Thorogood Midnight Black Moc Toe. Thanks for the all the advice and videos on boots. I'll be switching my boots so they last longer. I'm ready to move aircraft at O'Hare 😎✨
Love red wings. Been wearing them for 38 yrs now. I do concrete work and these are amazing boots. Last a long time and incredibly comfortable for all day work.
I have worn all kinds of work boots over the years but have to say that the Red Wing brand are the best. They are expensive but to me worth it..
The style that I have incorporate a safety toe and are electrical hazard rated. I could wear them year round with no discomfort.
Nice channel.
I know I’m getting old when watching a nice pair of boots get cut up has me conflicted
Redeings are garbage
Lmao!!! Best line!!!!
@@dancingkitty11 Yea. They last me 12-18 months of hard abuse vs most other boots falling apart in half that at my job. I just bought my 9th pair of 3506's
No, your just not a dick.
Red wings and matterhorn are my top .. just red wings after sitting on top of my locker over the weekend get stiff as hell . Putting them on Monday morning ..needs a motivational speech in its self
The Cadillac of boots. Been wearing the past 34 years of very hard on boots construction type work.
They never let me down! Brand new pair of Pecos in the closet. Still trying to wear my old pair out first!
In my business when your feet are tired, hurting or wet….. the day is finished!
I love mine!!!
I’ve owned 6 pairs of the 10877’s (work version of the 877 heritage), 1 pair of the 877 heritage boot, a pair of Thorogoods, a pair of Irish Setters and about 5 other styles of Redwing boots. The 10877’s are by far my favorite boots. The Thorogood boots feel amazing when trying them on, but can’t compare to the comfort of the 10877’s after the 2 week break-in. The Redwing boots can be worn 16 hours a day, 6 days a week with a resole every 6 months. Yes, I’m a hard working family man in the construction field. The Thorogood’s broke down faster and are much heavier at the base, leg and body fatigue sets in after 8 hours. The 8” Redwing will feel like a sock after 1 month of use, the Thorogood felt heavier and heavier as the year went on. Getting an 8” boot allows you to lock the boot further up your leg which keeps you firmly planted in the boot and allows your leg to lift the boot rather than your ankle. Also, the 877 heritage leather felt heavier over the 10877 and I like the black eyelets on the 10877 over the nickel on the 877’s. Love these cutaway vids!! Dope channel.
Thank you for the insight.
I’ve been working in carpentry for almost 6 years now and i’ve worn moc toe redwings for 4 years now and they have held up better than any other boot i’ve used
Take the sponsors. I got a pair of Lems because they weren't afraid to have their products cut up and shown.
Besides the well-researched info that I get from Rose Anvil commentaries, it is unmatched by the joy I get from watching an expensive boot cut in half!
The last pair I bought was the dark leather, waterproof, plastic toe and I think sole with speed laces. I' like never buy another pair of boots without speed laces. One of the best boots I've ever owned!
Yeah, I stand by what I have said before. Take the sponsorships. Even though your videos are informative and great fun, it ain't worth bankrupting yourself over...
I love how he said you can work in them if you have to lol
My dad had worn them for 3 years now and had the re- soled 2 times he loves them
Myself i have the Irish setters like this and they are great 👍
I have plantar fasciitis and I bought my first pair this year and love them. The comfort is fantastic.
The 100 year old machine thing is interesting. At my factory job here in Indiana we make be ball jar lids. Still using the same 40 ton presses they used back in the old days too. They’re a handful to maintain
Sponsors are better than just random adverts, at least there is a connection and we know they too support you. Loving and Sharing your content, already subscribed.
I've been wearing the super sole, and now the super sole 2.0 since 2006. Each pair lasts over two years in my industry as a steel working defense contractor for the navy. Best decision I made in my professional life next to a great mattress is a great pair of boots.
I've had a pair of Red Wings going on 3 years now and they're worn 10 hours a day 5 days a week. Best $250 I ever spent. My 2 gripes with them are 1) when the boots finally wear out, they do not have the same model that worked for me previously. 2) some boots are made in China or other Asian countries. They quality seems good just not made in USA.
The heritage collection is MIUSA…
@@BOICG isn’t the heritage collection not really work boots though? It’s more like “style”
@k quo, they do happen to be more stylish, but they aren’t built for style. I think the ‘high quality leather boot’ is a style right now lol. They are built very classically/traditionally and do have merit in being a long lasting boot, depending on how you wear/treat the boot.
Yes I used to purchase Red Wings until the shoes I liked were manufactured in China.
I started buying San Antonio Shoe Company made in America.
@@garymckee448 Danner did the same and lost me as a customer. Sure, they have a few models still made in Portland for a high premium but I just moved on altogether.
My dad bought me my first Red Wings in 1996 when I got my first construction job. Best working boots I’ve ever had. I used them for everything.
Love my Mocs, and this may be one of the best adverts for the RW company.....great stuff mate, keep up the content!
Don't forget to also do Redwing's 1907 Moc. It's less well known than the ones in this video but I think it's a better boot. It has a different last and different construction (storm welt)
The best boots I ever owned were made by Red Wing for the USAF. They were pole climbing boots, steel toe and shank with a 1.5 inch thick sole. I could walk and stand on steel all day and my feet would never hurt. Pity that they only lasted 6 years.
only 6 years. lol.
I get about 2.5-3 years but the HVAC rooftop hop is hard on boots. Snow, ice rebar roof acess laders. Timberland pros only last about 6-8months.
@@hvachacker586 timberland pros are terrible. Buy some redwings
Dude 6 years is an insane amount of time for a pair of work boots to last
190 lb 40 year old guy here, I have had my moc toe ( those exact boot) boots for over a year… and I absolutely love them. I Highly recommend them. I have worn all kinds of boots, by far for my usage these boots are absolutely the best. Quality of leather is very very good. Brake in period was longer than ideal ( i did NOT use any oil/ break in conditioner) …. Highly recommended getting your foot measured from the store. I wear a size 11.5 in Nike tennis shoes and I wear a 9.5 in these boots ..
Hope this helps someone out there in the UA-cams world.
Best part about growing up near Red Wing, was knowing people at Red Wing Shoe, getting great prices and great quality boots.
Not anymore.
How much did they weigh in at? Are you taking a look at the 1907 Red Wing Moc's?

Bought a pair of 877, 7 years in changed the resole / heal twice the look great and are awesome and way better quality than any other boots I’ve had
Almost got me exited, but oh, boy, video from 2 years ago.
Thank you anyway. I discovered your channel about a month ago and slowly going through your videos. Big thanks for the good educational content! And to the man who had to sleep at work on the 20$ mattress, thanks for your dedication too
I wouldn't say I'm obsessed with Red Wings, but the fact that the first pair of work boots I bought from them lasted 5 years of working and motorcycle riding does mean they're the only boots I buy.
I worked in a steel mill until 1986 when I graduated from College. Prior to leaving the steel mill, to pursue my business degree, I was able to get a brand new pair of Steel Toe Red Wings. It is now September of 2021 and I still wear the same boots. I have kept them clean and supple, they are the most comfortable boots I have ever worn.
You are full of it.

@@BlackBird1602 Wow, didn't think you'd answer, thanks! I will buy these. Do they have a safety toe?
First of all thank you. Second, if I may make a polite suggestion. I , and many others buy boots for function and not necessarily looks. There was a great deal of time spent on the type and color of the leather and zero mention on arch support and flex. I understand these types of reviews can be anecdotal but I need something. I watched a 17 minute video to hopefully gain some info on how these boots are going to affect my body after standing at work for eight hours on cement, but all I learned was what it looks like when cut apart and the color of the leather.
you must be new here.
Been here for a while! Rewatching this video because I just got a pair! Wonderful! You sir are a national treasure
Awesome job !!
I've owned my Red Wing Moc's since 2017, worn pretty much every day on construction job sites. Extremely comfortable with all the walking/time I spend on my feet. Can attest to the grind breaking the boots in is but they are extremely comfortable. These are my first pair of Red Wings and I will buy more down the road.
Just bought my first pair of red wing shoes. Google is definitely listening as you came up in my suggestions lol

Cutting half my beloved 875 shoes so I don't have to.... you just got a subscriber. Great content
I’m far more inclined to buy from a brand that is willing to be transparent about the construction of their product by literally having you tear apart their footwear. It gives me much more confidence in the purchase because I know exactly what I’m getting into. Please take all the Sponsorships you want. Its all part of how you grow and get noticed.

I’m sold on Keen wore them on the flight line for Cal Fire Aviation I’ve had Red Wings, I think Keen are a littl better. However I had to wear safety toes. Keen Pittsburg were my favorites 😎
Been wearing red wing boots since 1985. Is simply incredible.

Just got my first pair. Switched over from Tim pros. Work in wet conditions almost all the time and I was going through a pair of Tim pros of all different kinds about every 6 months, they almost always fail in the same way no matter how much I water proof and maintain them. From what I hear red wings will fix abused boots so that will probably work out great for me.
They charge for repairs. 100 to resole them. Just sent a pair out for repair yesterday.
Timb pros were super comfortable for me but same issue 5-6 mos is all I got how are these holding up

Redwing boots have had an awesome reputation since I was a kid in the 1970s.
I have been wearing red wings for near 20 years, the most comfortable boot I've ever put on my feet for work. Once broken in its even better but a very sad day when they are no longer useable
How long would you say a pair last you, wearing then every day...?
@@MrAsmontero when I could afford them , I had worn them for almost 25 years , steel toed 6" shank logger boots, and i wore them everyday, working construction , irrigation , plumbing. They lasted between two and three years and this included riding motorsickles. I had to oil them up every month or so. It's the only boot where my foot actually was comfortable in. Forget Walmart and all these other 6 month boots for $65 , you may as well lay out the $300 and get something that fits good and look good. Sorry I ran on.
a giant wall sized glass case of each shoe you've cut open would be so awesome. floor to celing, showing one good side of the shoe, and next to it, the "inside" of the shoe.
Excellent explanation simple and very clear, really like it!!!
damn my eyes hurt when u cut them red wings bruh

After wearing Red Wings for twenty plus years I found out how important the dealer is. My dealer in Tallahassee FL is obsessed with his product and is a straight shooter. Some of the other folks are a little less concerned with keeping customers happy.

Those are my dads boots. He’s been wearing them forever and loves them. Makes me nostalgic just to look at them.
I work in aviation and spend 10-12 hours a day on concrete.. I’ve wear Red Wings, Keen, Timberland over the last 40 years. I alternated between Keen & Red Wing. I’d didn’t know about all these other upper end boots that you’ve educated me on. I’ve never heard you talk about Keen’s . Now I wonder if you didn’t do a program about Keen maybe they’re made very well.
These videos are fantastic for educating consumers. As someone who works with leather though I cry a little on the inside when it comes down to cutting them in half.
Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
Ended here by curiosity and got hooked.
I’ve been in a construction union for 13 years now & I wanna say around my 6th year in I would always wonder why all carpenters I came across would have these on. Until that time I wore Timberlands ... anyway , I asked a random carpenter on my site why do they all wear that specific boot. The guy pretty much said just try a pair on. I went & did just that , I went & tried a pair on & ended up buying the 8inch heritage boot. I’ve never bought a diff brand since , it literally feels like you’re working with slippers on. The most comfortable boot that I’ve ever had 100%
Because they wanted to be Ironworkers..
I am also a big fan of how things were done here in the US in the old days. I am undecided on Thorogoods,Red Wings and Danner Boots. First video I see on your channel, liked it and I'm subscribing. Thanks for the info Brotha!
Another thing a high gusset does is prevent, or really slow the march of dry grass seeds up the fold and into your socks and then your ankle skin. If you work in the field in areas where the grass is really dry in the summer, with wild oats, fox tails, goat grass, and other nuisances, those high gussets are life savers.
Most comfortable working boots for the working man!!!?,I absolutely love them...thanks for the vid...

What boot do you recommend for a bad back? ( lower back ) thank you for the review, sir. 🙏🏼
I've had my redwings for 12 years, most comfortable boots I've ever worn. My other pair are 25 years old, retired to the shoe closet.
Superb video and boot. Love the comment from the guy who makes the boots 👍🏾👌🏾😍🤩
I’ve had these Loggermax steel toes since 2015, and they are Still waterproof, still wear really good!!
I’ve owned several pairs of this model. One important note and what makes them exceptional in a way is the leather reinforcing on the interior friction areas. Where most boots use a fabric of some kind that wears through overtime,redwing adds a leather piece that polishes smooth with friction and never wears out. In my opinion that’s what contributes most to the longevity of these boots.
Can you tell me how these size up please ?
Much appreciated
Bummed me out to see those boots just cut in half. I could wear those for the next ten years.
I could really use those boots.
If taken care of, they CAN last a decade.
very revealing, tnx dude.
I want a pair of those ... The style is set apart and just great looking .
One you break in your redwings it’s smooth sailing from there.
Ironworker triple Eddie. Had my foot molded when I got my first wings 20 years ago. Loved them have 3 pairs. Just get the sole redone every few years and oil them up and you have a boot for life. Fantastic boots.
Wanted to comment and say that these videos pushed me to bite the bullet and buy some good boots. Thanks for making these and improving our lives and knowledge.
I bought the Thorogoods today. I was at a shop that sold Thorogoods ($169), Red Wings ($219) & Danners ($159); so I was able to try on and walk around in all three brands’ mock toe boots. All looked good, felt good and appear well built. All three were quite comfortable and I was splitting hairs on deciding. If I had been at a shop that only sold one brand, I probably could have left with any of these boots and been happy. In the end, to me, the Thorogoods fit slightly better, felt more comfortable from the start, and the leather was softer; all points Rose Anvil stated here. I have become use to using speed hooks on all of my other boots, so I liked that they are on the Thorogoods & Danners over the eyelets on the Red Wings. I do wish Thorogood would have used speed hooks all the way to the top instead of a top eyelet; it’s a little awkward having to stop speed lacing to the thread the top eyelet. The Thorogoods are a little taller, which I liked since I will be wearing these when I ride my motorcycle. All three boots are very nice and made in the USA; a tough decision.
I wonder if the top eyelets over speed hooks help the lace not get untied? It's a problem with some boots.
Most Red Wing store will put speed hooks on your shoes at no extra charge. I’ve done it many times and own 5 different pairs of Red Wings.
