Videos like this are extremely helpful in understanding what the small differences are in such similar looking boots. Thank you , I feel better in my knowledge and it will help in my buying decision.
i was thinking about switching my 10877 to an 877 but glad i saw this video to really spot the difference between the two thanks so much for creating a video that came with the information i was hoping for
I just learned something new I've had a few pair of 877's or should I say 10877's. Never knew the difference, thank u for explaining the differences in detail. 🤘😎🤘
I wasn't even looking for this information but thank goodness for an the ALL knowing YT algorithm! I've been in a pair of 10877 for 12 years and I've had them re-soled twice now but I've never know the difference between the 2 models. Thank you for the video. SUBSCRIBED!
Hello, really enjoyed your video, all the details, refreshing to have a calm easy voice vs fast paced like other channels. :) also really appreciate the pauses to see some of the details better. Thanks!
LOVE this ... thank you! Just received my first pair of 8" RW's, a pair of 10877's. They are the 11th pair in my collection, and by far the ass-kickers of the group! Great review, Ms. Darlin!
@@DenimDarlin 2203's, 2414's, 2206's, 875's, 1907's, 402's, 2234's, 84206's and now these 8807's. I have never had the problems with hard break-in periods as so many others have the first week or so ... but I can tell you these were plug-and-play. The minute I put them on they felt like home! Love your channel and your honest reviews/opinions. Hello from snowy Minnesota, Denim Darlin'!
Wow! That is one solid collection 😍😍😍 It’s interesting to me because there are several of you out there who say they don’t have problems with break in. I wonder if for other men it could be due to getting the wrong size or width. Anyhow, I am SO happy to hear your 10877’s feel that great. And they must be magical in this winter climate. Your state is so beautiful! I want to live there one day. Take care and thank you so much for your support!
It’s very informative. Thanks hips. I originally wanted to have 877 but I only can purchase 10877 offline here in Australia. It was good to know that 877 comes with D only. Cause I prefer wider sole! 👍
I have the 10877 is hard to break after few months but I love this boot , I use in snow , rain , work on the yard , for go out on weekend. I used for everything 😀
I totally agree with you! I’ve had mine for 2 years and the leather is still so sturdy. They are such well made boots. I love that you wear yours for everything!
just paid $250 for a vintage pair of 877s with upgraded speed hooks on the top 5 eyelets as well as upgraded toe protection, and it is beautifully patinaed to a sort of deep orange/red... i gotta wear them now :)
Thank you! I’m looking to get one of these boots are your video is an awesome comparison! I can’t thank you enough! And yes, you helped me make my decision, it will be the 10877 in 13 EE! Thanks again!😎
I love driving past men and women on their bikes and seeing them in Red Wings. SCORE 😎 And I agree. I could barely press on my car’s break, on my way home, the first time I wore mine. And I felt like a clown walking up and down stairs. But it’s sooo rewarding breaking them in. I’m excited for your journey. And before you know it, they will be buttery soft 🤩
I own two pairs of 10877, that I use as a carpenter (I alternate the boots every other day). I’ve had one pair for about a year and a half and the other for a year, & the shaft is still tough as hell.
My 877’s are so much more flexible than they were when I first got them. But just like your 10877’s, the shaft still doesn’t feel as soft as I’m sure they’ll become.
I have the 10877's. I wanted the 877's and the local RW store had none. The manager explained the color differences and said that the 10877's were in stock. 877's vs 10877's: same quality, made by the same people on the same production lines. You would not be able to tell the difference unless they were side by side. Yes it take a while to break in but once they are broken in they are very comfortable. You will learn to use and appreciate the finger loop in the back.
I think I actually prefer the 10877 because it’s closer to the original color. Conditioning can change color too, just depends on the life of the boot I guess!
877 originally were a deep cherry color ! Then color change I got my first 877 When I was 12 years old I wanted them bad ! I used to watch Carpenters mill workers and framers at job sites that's what I wanted to do I realized that when I was young.
When I went to REDWING MINNESOTA I picked up a pair of 10877 I thought they were the better buy I have a lot of Heritage boots. But I just thought that the extra branding was worth it and they were about $20 cheaper than the 877. It look like you were paying more for the same boot but with less branding on it. I still style them the same as if they were Heritage Boots. But great video over all
I love the 877. I started to try the 10877, but I was like “it’s the same boot” almost. So I just got the 877. All I could find was the Redwing logo and the black eyelets. I was confused. So I did the 877.
@@DenimDarlin I’m wearing the 10875 to work, and so far there still pretty stiff. I think footbed is starting to conform a bit. Two weeks in. Don’t think they will take as long as my Nick’s. I was just wondering if I should have went with 875/ or 877. I guess it don’t matter😆
I own both Oro Original, and Oro Legacy. The Legacy has a perfume to it that lasts about a month, I've noticed. But the Oro Original does not. Probably where the extra 20 dollars comes from.
@@DenimDarlin nope first hand purchase. In the leather tumbling process they incorporate a proprietary blend of essential oils that give certain leathers their distinct smell. The 877 being more supple and less waterproofed with waxes allows for the perfume to emanate more freely.
The eyelets of the 10877 are brass for sure. Besides a pair of 10877 from 2007 (was 877 then) I own Iron Rangers 8111, 8113 and 8114. I don’t like the 877 as a workboot at all. The wedge soles wear off rapidly and it feels like walking on pillows. I had mine resoled twice over a span of 15 years. The Iron Rangers are far more sturdy and versatile. It’s almost impossible to ruin them working in the woods, the garage or during offroad voyages. Wearing them daily in all circumstances they’re not in need for new soles after 10 to 12 years. Just keeping them oiled and waxed. Ankle support is superb by Iron Rangers.
Why don;t you choose a different sole when you re-sole? Vibram 148 Kletterlift (flat, lug) is the sole I would choose when it comes time to re-sole, with a mild high-density foam wedge at the back. Just like I had my old jungle boots re-soled.
I have six sets of 10877’s hanging in my garage. They get put there when they are toast. Five more sets until retirement. FYI, have redwing change out your top four eyelets for speed hooks. They do mine for free. Also, buy a gallon of obenauffs oil and out two coats on them when they are new and set them in the sun or in front of the stove. Break in on them sucks.
@@DenimDarlin When I was tooled up in the field, I’d go through crepe soles every 6-7 months when we hit it hard, and I’d get 2 years out of them. As my career progressed and my desk time increased, it went to over three years. Now I’m a 100% desk turd but I still wear 10877’s. The ones I have now are close to 4. I still have a beat up set for yard and farm work.
@@DenimDarlin They are just boots to me. I started wearing them when my Wesco Jobmasters hurt my knees working on concrete. Jobmasters are awesome in the dirt but terrible on concrete.Crepe soles are the best on concrete and paying the cobbler twice a year was well worth it. I’ve hurt many body parts, but never my feet in 23 years. I found your video because I’m considering 10875’s. Then again, I like leaving things alone that are working.
It’s great you ended up finding boots that work and don’t hurt your knees. You most likely would find the 10875’s just as comfortable as the 10877’s and maybe even more functional since they are low top.
love seeing a lady sharing her Red Wing / Boot experiences with others. YOU ROCK !
Thank you so much for the love! 😁

Thanks, just what I was wondering.
yup did great explaining the difference s between the 10877 & 877.
wow i learned alot

Great info. I was under the impression that all Heritage were made USA made and the none heritage abroad. I was wrong!
Hi! The 10877 is definitely an exception. Thank you for watching! :D
Just bought a new pair of the 877s. Love the orange
That is so awesome!! They are amazing boots.
Great video! Really informative 👍🏼
Thank you!! :D
I recently purchased the 10877 for when I ride my motorcycle. The 8” really take a lot to break in 🙂 I can’t wait till the leather is butter soft😎

Takes 3 good days to break them in I wouldn’t get a real pair of handmade boots like nicks if these are considered hard to break in
Thank you, I didn’t know the difference, I bought the 877 for work, not realizing the 10877 is the work boot. Oh well, I’m still happy with them.
You have a pair that’s virtually the same! Same tough boot. Beautiful leather 😍 I’m so glad you’re satisfied with them.

877 originally were a deep cherry color !
Then color change I got my first 877
When I was 12 years old I wanted them bad !
I used to watch
Carpenters mill workers and framers at job sites that's what I wanted to do I realized that when I was young.
Wow, that is so amazing!! Thank you very much for sharing. I love that you got your first pair at such a young age 😍

That’s awesome! Yes. I don’t mind paying more. I am partial to the Oro Legacy leather. Thank you!
I just ordered the 10877 from EBay . 199$ pretty good deal
That IS a good deal! Have you received them yet?
Great review lots of info .. get the thicker ones!! 877s
They’re amazing!! Tough as heck to break in, but SO worth it.
Good video !! Thanks I just got a pair of 10877 and was wondering the difference between them and the 877 the tongue tag says they where made in 2022.
Thank you! Wow!! Those are freshly made. Enjoy them and Happy New Year!!
Great video thank you.

Thank you so much for letting me know your thoughts! 😁 Take care.
I’m 877 fan. Great video
You have great taste! Thank you!!
Out stitching on the welt looks different. 10877 stitches are placed wider apart and 877 looks to be finer, like a dress boot.
Fascinating! I will take a closer look at that. Thank you!
Great video, it helped me choose!
Thank you!! So awesome. Which did you go with?
@@DenimDarlin I went with the 877. Didnt like the Redwing logo stamped over the 10877
I am with you! I prefer the 877 also. I look forward to hearing about your break in experience!
i wear Red Wings boots but i honestly did not know about the diff between them...
which ones do you like best? and thank you great video
Hi! Thank you. I love the 877’s. I find the Oro-Legacy leather so beautiful.
@@DenimDarlin which is easier to break in.?
To be honest, they are equally tough to break in. All differences are aesthetic.
@@DenimDarlin I’m wearing the 10875 to work, and so far there still pretty stiff. I think footbed is starting to conform a bit. Two weeks in. Don’t think they will take as long as my Nick’s. I was just wondering if I should have went with 875/ or 877. I guess it don’t matter😆
Lolololol!! Sounds normal! Two years in and my 877’s just now started to feel softer 😆 Of course I’m small framed, which makes a huge difference.
I own both Oro Original, and Oro Legacy. The Legacy has a perfume to it that lasts about a month, I've noticed. But the Oro Original does not. Probably where the extra 20 dollars comes from.
Interesting. I did not notice a difference in smell between them. I wonder if yours were purchased by someone previously and returned.
@@DenimDarlin nope first hand purchase. In the leather tumbling process they incorporate a proprietary blend of essential oils that give certain leathers their distinct smell. The 877 being more supple and less waterproofed with waxes allows for the perfume to emanate more freely.

@@jfruser That would be an option, but would ruin the appeal for the boots. I do like the white cushion look.

My pleasure. Thank you for watching!
Are the moc toes the same in width? It looks like the 10877 is wider than the 877 ?
They are the same in width. It might be due to how the stitching was done which may give it that illusion.
J'ai démarré la série
Merci!!
I think the 10877 is made in Veinam.
No. It is definitely made in Minnesota :)
great vid do you have any preference now that you have worn them for awhile
Thank you! My preference is the 877. I love the way the leather looks more than anything.
