Quality: I've been wearing them almost daily for a month and they are still in great shape. These boots are amazing and I expect to get many many years of use out of them. I also plan to resole them when the time comes. They are classics. Sizing: I normally wear either 8.5 or 9, but I got 8 and they fit perfect. Value: Anyone who thinks the price is too high, should travel overseas, and see how much they cost. Keep in mind they are made in the USA. They are classics and should last a longtime if maintained. Comfort: These are not running shoes, but they are very comfortable for work boots. I often walk 5 miles a day wearing them. I've had no problems. They are great summer boots and look amazing with khakis. I highly recommend these boots.

These are fantastic boots. They look beautiful and feel great. They will take well over a month of constant wearing to break in, but it’s worth it. I still marvel at the craftsmanship of these when I put them on. I’ll probably be wearing these well over 15 years from now. As they get scuffed, it just makes them look even better. These are also made in the USA for anyone who cares about it.

What a great looking boot. They are built to last and are seriously rugged. However, I broke these boots in for a week before I took them on a camping trip where we went on an a easy cheesy 5 mile hike. Afterwards I was so footsore that I could barely make it to the 200 yards to the latrine. Problem: lack of arch support, pinch across the top of the foot where the toe cap stops, and an overall lack of support. The lack of tread on the sole also limited my traction on some of the more slick parts of the trail. The good news is my feet stayed dry and the boots cleaned up well and still look good. Great boot for light duty walking, and would not hesitate wearing them in rough work conditions, but I wouldn't want to have to stand in them all day or walk long distances. All in all a little disappointing considering the exorbitant price tag and Red Wing name.

I use this boot for construction work, wears well, looks great, but I like the light weight. This boot definitely runs a half size too large. If you have a normal width foot, order the wide, it also runs narrow. Once you figure out the sizing it's a great boot.

These are great boots!
These are a Birthday Present for my brother. I ordered them because he got a pair of them for Christmas and has not stopped talking about them. He loves them. Very comfortable, fits just right, wonderful design. I have to say these are really good-looking boots!

Nice Looking Boot -
They are a really handsome pair of boots (hawthorne color) but I think they are a bit pricey. Should be cheaper, and some of the workmanship of the boot is a tad questionable for the price. Also, they are not good in the snow and muck because the sole is flat with no grooves. So they are more style than function but look really good. I would have liked them to be about 4" higher, but they a true engineer boots.

Great looking shoe -
I bought these boots for my boyfriend for x-mas. He loves the boots. We both wear Red Wing boots for work. They are the most comfortable boots I have found for working hard all day. I won’t buy any other brand and I love the new styles for casual shoes they have. I’m ready for them to have really cool womens shoes too.

'Pop'
Great looking boots but, I had the same popping issue as a previous reviewer. The left boot’s sole 'popped' when taking a step as if the shank wasn't secured to the sole. I had no choice but to return them. Maybe the poppers are all part of the same batch? The sizing is a bit generous. I ordered 1/2 size down from what I normally wear and it was a good fit. Not terribly comfortable out of the box but adequate. The boots look fantastic and once they accumulate a few miles I'm sure would look even better. If they could just improve the quality control, these boots would be sure winners!

This is the 7th pair of Red Wings I have owned in 20 years. Three of them I still wear to this day. Never have I had a pair with an issue. These are incredible and one of the most handsome pair of boots I own. I have worn them every day since I bought them, and I have had so many compliments. They truly do look like a pair of boots right out of your dad’s closet in 1956. Except these don't smell. They were comfortable right out of the box. The stitching is tight, the soles are great, and I am happy with a boot that I will have for a very long time.

Review revision -
I posted below that the 9 1/2's fit well, but 15 minutes later I decided to send them back and order a 9. I am wearing the 9's now and they fit well, but there is definitely going to be a break-in period. They feel a bit tight width-wise, but the leather is very stiff and they should loosen up a bit as worn.

Good so far -
Just received my Iron Rangers. Good looking shoe. After reading previous posts I stretched, bent and twisted them to check the construction and everything looks good so far. According to Zappos size chart I was a 10, where I normally wear a 10 1/2 or 11. I ordered a 9 1/2 and they fit well.

110% Satisfied! Well worth EVERY penny!
A little tough to break in. As for construction, I've searched every stitch and could not find one thing out of place. These were love at first sight. I've been waiting for a boot that personifies the early 1900's. Something with a classy yet masculine boot. I've searched all the ultra high-end boutiques but only found imitators. Thankfully my time has come to cross paths with the originator. Excellent buy. Respect the classics!!!

Beware. Quality control at Red Wing is sleeping on the job -
Keep in mind; this is a $274 pair of shoes. Absolutely loved the styling. Red Wing finally hit the nail on the head in that regard. Great looking pair of boots. Unfortunately, the quality of these things is...well, ridiculously poor. Materials quality is fine, but the craftsmanship is horrible. First pair...cosmetically flawless, I was thrilled...until I put them on and took a step forward. I heard a loud "pop"...then another loud "pop." "What is that noise," asked my co-worker in the next cubical. I took that right boot off and found that although the sole was indeed stitched on, it had no glue (or the glue had given way) on the forefoot. The loose section of sole created an air bubble, then popped it each time I took a step. Left boot was fine. I called Zappos and they immediately shipped a replacement pair. Too my disgust, I opened the replacement box to find that the left shoe on the replacement pair had the boot body positioned well off-center at the heel area. Then I thought I could take the one good boot from each pair...left and right. Well, that idea went out the window, as I quickly noticed that one pair had a readily noticeable brown stitching ledge around the heel and one had a pink stitching ledge around the heel. If you want to roll the dice on a $274 pair of boots, I wish you the best of luck. There probably are a few nicely made pairs out there, but just remember I just received two pairs in a row (one sent as a replacement) with obvious flaws. Not looking for something to display in a museum, just looking for a pair of boots that start out in the correct form.

Buy down half a size -
Great boot, but sized a bit long. Step down half a size like the Gentleman Traveler and you should be set.

 |  | Just had to e-mail you all (yes, even though this is one of many hundreds of e-mails you might get in a day!) to say THANKS. I order from you all a lot (well, at least for me.) Up until last night you all were the only online shoe place I ordered from. Last night I found you had stopped carrying the Asics cross trainer that I had always used, so I went to another website to find what I needed. I called and talked to a very knowledgeable person, and ordered 1 pair of Asics shoes. Yes, they were cheaper, BUT I have to pay to send it back to them, making the deal almost the same as yours. AND they are on the west coast, and so are you, BUT you ship to me from the Midwest (I live in NC), and I ALWAYS get my order in less than 48 hours after I click send!!! And so, I went to Zappos.com and ordered 3 more Asics to compare. Who knows which shoe I will end up with? BUT the fact that I will receive your box quicker and I can return it all and get a full refund if I don't like it is what is the deal maker here. Since I order a new pair of Asics every 3 mos., I know I have to find a new favorite Asics, and I will order them from Zappos.com in the future!! Thanks guys. Your choice to have a warehouse in the Midwest was not appreciated by me until last night!
