    Glad you got some of those Darn Tough socks. I love mine. I have roughly 10 pairs, my oldest pair is 2 years old. They have shown no sign of wearing thin. Greatest socks I’ve ever worn.

    The beauty of the cooper leather is that with time scratches, stains, nicks whatever smooth out after conditioning with leather cream and look like one work of art, like those old Caribbean maps shows in cigar humidors, real cool.

    @adrianmeza The Red Wing 9111 Classic Round are not available for men in the US. Red Wing makes a version for women but they are much more narrow in the toes. Red Wing Europe still has these available in stores.

    Awesome Video! My 1st RW’s were rough & tough 1907’s.. still looking great 12ish years later. Also, love your Linemen’s, been keep my eyes out for some of those too. The wedge soles give it a good contrast against the leather. Enjoy them!

    So 2 things. First, the Copper R&T is an extremely porous leather. I’d stick with the boot oil only, for conditioning. If you use the paste(bees wax, pine pitch, and mink oil), it will dramatically change the color of the boot. Secondly, those “Darn Tough” socks are AWESOME! They actually have cushioning properties, so make breaking in new boots much easier. Also, they are great year round.

    Just a quick one CJ: I've managed to go to a retailer and try on some blacksmiths as your suggested and some moc toes. The moc toe felt stiff and bulky and not comfortable to me, while the 3344 were hugging my foot with a secure fit. In terms of appearance I would prefer going for an Iron Ranger instead of the Blacksmith, do you think the fit is going to be the same? 8085 or 8111? Thank you in advance and keep up the good work! p.s. good luck with your auditions

    • @CJCook
      @CJCook  6 лет назад +1

      Hey Luca, The Blacksmith and the Iron Ranger are made on the same last which means they will fit the same. The 8085 is the most popular leather sold by Red Wing. It takes some some beautiful characteristics as it ages.

  • @JJ-lu6mg
    @JJ-lu6mg 6 лет назад

    What’s up CJ did you ever try Redwings leather insoles ? I think they are perfect for for the Heritage line. As far as the copper I think it looks awesome new but if you want them to stay close to that color don’t put anything on them. When you think they might need to be conditioned you should only use Redwings Leather Cream on them. If you do use anything else they will get crazy dark. I’ve been looking for the Round Toe in Copper or in the Ora Legacy. I never cared for the soles on the Rovers but I really want the 8176’s but it’s not sold here in 🇺🇸. Have you ever bought anything from Japan or out of the US ?

    • @CJCook
      @CJCook  6 лет назад +1

      Thank you for the tip JJ. I have not tried the Red Wing leather insoles. I have the custom fitted insoles from Red Wing. I am open to trying them I only hesitate because they are full heel to toe inserts so I would most likely size up for comfort or just cut the insole. I have not made any purchases from Japan. I buy from EU all the time. They have some goodies out there.

    I have only 1 pair of redwings (just been bitten with the boot bug) and they are a pair of briar blacksmiths. Given round toes are all but gone, would you recommend this colorway and style as second boot purchase (I can get my hands on a pair in my size but no discount like yours)? Or would you recommend a different style like the iron ranger in brown or black or moc toe in briar? I work in a smart to business casual dress attire office environment. I am not close to a RW store to see any in person.

      Hello Tarek, The Brair Blacksmiths are perfect for your needs. Great choice!
      This is interesting: My initial thought is to go with an Iron Ranger. They would work well as a second boot. BUT, they would have the same feel as the Blacksmith because the currently are made with the Vibram mini lug sole like the Blacksmiths. If you can find a Round Toe do it. I would also recommend the Rover. Both the Round Toe and the Rover look really nice with a pair of chinos and the comfort level is soo nice.

      CJ Cook they’ll mold to your feet better without the insole. In fact you’re better off wearing them without an insole even when they’re broken in. But sometimes you need an insole to fill up some volume.
