Hi 👋 nice looking boots. Like you said, they don’t get a lot of wear. I had to get my sole replaced after around six months. But I walk anywhere between five and seven miles a day. I like the way the leather has aged from your jeans etc. it’s a cool look. I look forward to seeing how they look in another year. Thanks for the video.
Hi, quick question, but what is your foot length (heel to toe) that you've gone with a 9.5, I'm sitting at 10.5''' and decided to go with a size 8.5 but thinking of maybe going up to a 9
I’m a size 10, but since I have a narrow foot my 1907 and other moc toes I have which are the 875 and 8847 I wear a 9D in all 3. Perfect fit for me. I tried a 9.5D, but they were too big. Happy with my fits they’ve all broken in nice!
They look amazing, I’ve had mine a week and they’re breaking in nicely. The soles still look good on yours, and the patina and discolouration look good too. I stack my raw denim so I’m curious to see how they’ll turn out. I need some iron rangers so I can rotate. Good video, thanks 👍
@@rockymtnstyle i work retail at our flagship store in Red wing Minnesota! Ive been wearing red wings since I was little, my mom has worked at the corporate office for years now. Super lucky to live where i do!
Hello! I'd say no, not true to size. I would size down 1/2 US size. For example, I'm 10.5D Brannock and wear these in 10D. Yes! Once you have them broken in, they are comfortable to walk in as long as you're wearing good socks!
unfortunately i cant get red wings in my country, they dont ship here. i was thinking of getting thursdays wingtips and lots of good reviews but im not sure how the boots will last. do you know thursday boots in depth and can you recommend or not, getting them? ive had timberlands for daily wear, other boots for hiking and other boots for work. im looking for something comfortable that looks better than the timberlands like a dressier look and wont fall apart after a year or two..
I've had many Thursday products and for the price, they are very good. They also have a great customer service department that seems to quickly fix any issue. If you wear the boot daily I would expect you would need to resole it after 18-24 months... But that's not unheard of. There are much better boots out there, but for around $200 usd I think Thursday is the best.
@@rockymtnstyleSome people seems to have 5 even 8 years on their boots without a resole. it seems to be as much about ones weight, how one walks, on what services how often. Like you mentions im also a desk worker so my boots dont see hard wear except for my Thursday legends used for walking the dog, i put 5-10 kms per day on them, they are holding up well but thats orders of magnitude more steps than on most of my boots going to the office, the odd brunch or coffee out etc. previous to the legends was just rocking trail running/ hiking shoes but blowing the the soles in less than a year as they are so soft and the shoes are not much less than yesterdays. They will last i predict at least 5 years total if not longer if i were to really run them into the ground.
wingtips are nice, they are actually very casual, basically hiking/ walking boots for the estate but for whatever reason at least in NA people seem to think because they are much less common they are fancy, meanwhile most of theses boots have quite blue collar origins. The blacks def more dressy than lighter. i like the black and the tan in particular but dont own either. i do have black wingtip dress shoes which i like because they are less dressy than black oxfords which i fine to dressy especially post covid return to work which is way more casual in the office. i am enjoying the more casual as so many more options to dress up jeans, boots button downs, sweaters etc,
Unless you are also a guy that works a desk job and wants to know about boots. Which outnumber the "real" boot wearers. But I appreciate your constructive feedback. I'm sure it took you quite awhile to figure out something you deemed witty.
I picked up a pair of 1907's at the factory clearance sale in Red Wing yesterday. Awesome boot!
Oh heck yeah!! Great boot at full price and epic with a sale! Good work sir!

Thank you! Appreciate the perspective and the kind words. Have a great weekend, sir!
Really nice clicking on your pair. I have the RW Rover in this leather and also love how it’s aging!
Thx Greg! Definitely coming along nicely!
They’re looking so good!
Thx, J! Big fan!
Great looking patina on these. Looking forward to more long term reviews.
Thanks man. Definitely cool for the workwear look when I'm feeling that!
Hey Patrick....love the Red Wing brand. Thanks!
Yo Fred! Yeah, they definitely have a special feel about them.
I have those boots in the copper rough & tough and the concrete rough & tough. Both are pretty sold boots.
The concrete is cool! I hadn't seen that before. Thx, AJ!
@@rockymtnstyle yeah it’s only sold overseas.
I use Bick 4 on my 13 year old Copper Rough & Tough 9111 the color stayed pretty much the same. Comfy and cool.
Glad to hear it! I'm planning on sticking with the Bick 4 for sure. Seems to work reasonably well on everything!

Thanks for sharing, man! Always great to have as much info about people's fit experience as possible.

Thx Simon. Appreciate the kind words and hope you keep loving yours!
Yeah man you won’t be disappointed having 2 nice red wing boots to rotate. I have 1907 and 8111 very different from one another but great on the foot.
Beautiful pair! I just picked up a pair myself, im a Red wing employee. My favorite look by far, just ahead of the discontinued 8205s
Thanks! Do you work retail or at the factory?

Hi from Australia.
Do these run true to size?
Comfortable to wear on long walks?
Cheers

What do you do wearing them walk ? Work ? Never mind you work at a desk or course they look new
Yep. Engineer who works at a desk.
Are these steel toe or regular toe boots?
Regular.
May i ask.. what conditioner do u use? I ve pair of this shoes.. tq
Only thing I've done on these is Bick 4 and only one time so far.
unfortunately i cant get red wings in my country, they dont ship here.

Nice! Good points you bring up here, and thank you for taking the time to share.
A guy that works a desk job reviewing boots is like a guy that rides a scooter reviewing trucks. Complete waste of people's time.
Unless you are also a guy that works a desk job and wants to know about boots. Which outnumber the "real" boot wearers. But I appreciate your constructive feedback. I'm sure it took you quite awhile to figure out something you deemed witty.
are you 10D on Iron Rangers too?
Yup, sure am.
@@rockymtnstyle thank you, I want to order the 1907 but wasn’t sure about the sizing.
