Irish Setter

Poor design. Went with true size in wide. Could not even get my foot in it.

The boots run small. I got these for my husband who is a 10.5 and we are returning for a wide 11. He never wears wide so I would say they are narrom.

This is the second pair of boots I’ve ever purchased. The first pair was a mistake. Some hiking boots I got a few years ago on the cheap. They were just terrible - uncomfortable to the point I went out of my way to avoid wearing them and no ankle support. With winter rolling in, I decided it was time to get some good winter boots. I wanted something that is quick/easy to put on, fit nice, wear comfortable, that would keep me warm if I was walking a mile or two on snowy sidewalks, and support my ankles. Settled on deciding to try these as a first step - Zappos has such a good return policy I figured I could send them back and try a different pair if I didn’t like them. No need. These fit like a dream. The side-zip and vamp buckle mean they go on easy and get nice and secure with minimal effort. There can be a bit of a struggle to get my foot in, but that’s dependent on the socks and it works better if I use a shoe horn. The ankle support is enough to help keep my ankle straight on icy sidewalks but not so much that I feel restricted. Wore them around the office for a few hours and I was surprised at how dry they kept my feet. As an insulated winter boot I figured my feet would be soaked by the time I took them off. I’m very happy with these and I’m looking forward to long walks this winter.

Boot fit true to size. I have an extremely wide foot and the hard part is getting the boots on the top of the boot is a little narrow. Once on they feel really good so far they're wearing well 2 weeks into owning them.

Bought these work boots for my husband. He’s a plumber and these are the only boot he will wear. Loved them. Very comfortable, water proof, and durable. Def recommend them. And I’ll add they are very stylish.

Very disappointed in the quality of these boots. My feet would get wet just walking through wet grass. Then, after just four months the leather in one of the boots cracked and got a hole in it. I took good care of these boots and was not particularly hard on them.

Ordered a size larger for extra socks and insulated pants room, and there is adequate space. Slightly ankle tight in a good way. Could have more aggressive grips, not a deal breaker though.

I bought a 9 EE in width and it made a world of difference. Well built boot and looks good with jeans or tan / green pants. I hope to use this boot for walking .I walk 10 /11 miles a week. So far so good. (ZAPPOS IS ALWAYS THE BEST) I am 73 and buy 99% of my shoes from Zappos. So much for old people not buying on line! Jake

Fit and size are perfect. Just waiting for cooler weather to really test them out.

Second pair I have had , got little over a year out of first pair. I wear a 10 1/2 wide in wolverine but had to go to 11 wide in these . I also use aftermarket insoles . These are my work boots so I am on concrete all day , the soles had great longevity for me .

Love the look and height of these Boots. Should be great for the SD pheasant fields. I ordered a half size bigger than I would in a normal hunting boot and while a tad large the smaller size would definitely be too small

Best work boot I ever owned. Worth the money.

These boots fit like a glove. They we're flexible and stayed waterproof the entire year of use. When I started wearing them, the steel was making my big-toes sore, but after my foot broke in, they were a great pair of boots. Eventually the sole of the boots lost rigidity and my mid-foot was no longer supported. The lack of mid-foot support put most of my weight on my heels leading to plantar fasciitis. I did feel like I could run with them the entire time I had them. I do not notice arch support. I did get a lot of compliments.

Nice will buy from again thank you

Good quality. I don’t care for the shoelaces

These boots fit narrow at first. I have narrow feet and usually order a b width from red wing. I got these in the standard d width in my normal size and they fit great! for 4 hours. I am wearing them as work boots, as an automotive mechanic. Half way through the first day of wearing them they had stretched out a lot and were fitting loose. I took the insoles out of my old red wings and put them under the new boots insole for day 2. They were right at first but by 5pm I had the perfect fit. I recommend wearing these inside and "stretching" them out for 4 hours before deciding on the actual fit. They look great and are very comfortable to be on for 9-10 hours a day.

Love these! They hold up great, I was worried they would show the wear on the outside but they don't!

good looking shoe

Fantastic pair of boots. No break-in needed. Perfect for camping and over landing adventures.

When I received these boots I was amazed at how nice they looked. I wore them around the house for 4 days to break them in and get used to them. They felt amazing and were comfortable. It was time to take them to the mountain on a hike. I went to a very ruff terrain area and did a nine mile hike. The boots felt great. When I got home I inspected the boots and found that both boots had a crack on the welt and upper sole of the boot in the instep area. The cracks went from one of the stitches on the welt across to the outer part of the sole. I decided to try 2 more hikes the next 2 days and if that little crack was the only thing wrong than I would just live with it. After the third day out and a total of about 20 miles of hiking in the boots, I inspected them again. Both boots had severe damage to the soles. The air bobbed soles broke off from the soles and left holes in the bottom of the boots. The soles can't even be replaced because the leather on the welt cracked. I do hike and hunt in very rugged mountains but I have never had this kind of problem with any of my old boots. I have always used Rocky's and decided to try something new for a change (shame on me). This was the first and last time I have ever bought Red Wing Irish Setter Boots. I have never spent this much on a boot and had to talk my wife into the idea. My boots normally last between 8 and 15 years on the mountain. I justified buying these boots because it would be many years before I had to get another pair. Well, three days later I got, "I told you so." These boots looked great and would be a nice dress boot, but do not plan on wearing them in the mountains. You will be sorry.

Comfortable out the box boots! Going on my 3rd pair.

I have worn a pair of these boots for about two and a half years. They have not broken around the heels or middle or the aluminum toe showing through. The laces have lasted as well. I wear these boots five days a week for about 9 to 11 hours a day. My feet still feel good and I don't even feel them when I am wearing them. They are also quiet when I walk. I am so silent that I spook my coworkers when I walk up behind them sometimes.

Not a big fan of the hooks for final lacing, they tend to loosen the more walking you do which causes the boots to slip up and down causing blisters. Other than that I love the boot.

I have always worn 10.5 EE, many different brands. These were so small I could not even put them on! Just looking at them they are clearly smaller than my previous boots.

I wanted a 13 wide, but ended up with just a 13 regular/medium and ive been happy with how these shoes have broken in well. Also, very impressed with the fast/over-acheiving customer support I experienced. They quickly handled a return/exchange/back to a return with out a hitch.
