They fit perfectly, I ordered my size and had no issues wearing them after I broke them in for a couple of days. They look great and arrived in perfect condition. The box kind of fell apart when I opened the package but that's it. Speedy delivery as well!

I wear 9.5 in tennis shoes and I ordered a size 9 in these boots. Also, I put in a thin insole because there is not any cushioning at all. Also, the shoe fits kinda narrow in the heel and mid foot.

This review is to inform customers that this boot is a size larger than expected ordered a size 9(regular size for me) and was to big. Ordered a 8.5 and still to big, trying an 8 number now for the 3rd time.

Fit was perfectly true to size. Style is “just right,” rugged but wearable everyday. Color of boot and sole offer a timeless look.

I measure a 10.5 wide. I wear a 10.5 in Johnston Murphy. dress shoes. I wear an 11 in Redwing Dynastars and 11 in most sneakers. I originally purchased the Heritage a 10.5 wide and they were huge. I returned them for a 10 regular and it is a good fit, and they are very comfortable. If my foot was regular width, I could see purchasing a full-size down. From a style standpoint these appropriate for office casual and/or a casual restaurant/bar. They are of good quality and well-made, and would stand-up to actually use as a work boot, if one was so inclined. I would assume (and will find out) that with appropriate sealing they will be water/snow/slush resistant.

can't go wrong with Red Wing Heritage boots, but I ended up with a slightly used boots. perhaps, someone has tied them for few hours then returned them back to Zappos.
I'd also recommend:
Oak Street boots , Johnston Murphy and Thursday boots.

I have a weird foot! Boots feel a bit large although if I bought a smaller size I may have had problems.

I love my Iron Rangers! I’ve never really had to “break in” shoes/ boots, but these do take some time to break in. After that, they are great. Definitely get some fully cushioned wool socks to help with the break in. I typically wear a size 12 in running shoes or Vans, but leather shoes/ boots I size down to 11.5. Got 11.5 for Iron Rangers and they fit great! I get compliments on them every time I wear them, which is surprising to me for how common these are. And the leather smells amazing!

I usually wear a size 12D in Nikes but in these I was measured at the Redwing store as a 10.5W. There is no cushion on the insole. For me they were comfortable right out of the box. I will break them in for the next two weeks and will be adding a Spenco comfort insole to the boots after they have molded to my feet.

Ordered 1/2 size smaller than I normally wear based on research. Perfect fit! Not sure why people say the break in period takes a while, they feel great right out of the box to me. Guess I’m just used to wearing boots all day. They continue to feel even better the more they conform to my feet. Excellent boots.

First off, they look great. I agree with others that say they run big. I wear a 12 in almost everything, but ordered 11.5 as recommended, fit is good. They are not as uncomfortable right out of the box as I expected after reading how long it takes to break these particular boots in. The sole is hard though, just cork and leather, no padding. If you’ve only ever worn sneakers there’s quite the difference. Have a ways to go to break them in, but so far so good.

Just unboxed them today, only worn for a few hours but I already know that these are a perfect fit and will only get better with time.
This is a sharp looking boot and light weight compared to what im used to. Bought these for all kinds of activities, but mainly just liked the looks and its been a while since ive had some new boots.
My other boots are Redwing Heritage 2268 engineers boots, they are 4 years old, motorcycle boots, they have been through some rough treatment and lots of adventures but are still holding up fine, i should get ten or more years out of them, they have a nice patina but can still be worn to town. Very comfortable but heavy.
It takes a little time to get broken in, so it helps to invest in some quality American Made socks, I prefer Thorlo’s.
These Redwing Heritage Boots are excellent quality and value, they are built to last and Im proud to be walking around in some boots that have “Made in USA” on the tags. The price is very reasonable, especially when one pair of boots could be expected to last for several years.

First, let me clarify that, based on experience with this brand, I chose a half-size smaller than I normally wear; thus, the perfect fit. The boots I received were made recently and the leather is still supple, so no need to recondition right away. I changed the original laces for a more dressy pair but other than that they are perfect. The charcoal gray is more subtle than black and great for a casual or a semi-formal look. I highly recommend this brand!

The iron rangers I have feel great, a little stiff as the leather needs to break in, but felt right since first fitment. Not a lot of arch support, and a firm footbed and outer sole, but not unlivable. I would not recommend for walking on paved concrete all day, Red Wing makes much better shoes specifically designed for this and they are amazing for work use. I’m brutal on normal shoes, so I wanted something ‘tough but classy’ and serviceable. Order one size smaller then your regular shoe for sure ?

I first purchased these shoes on ebay and according to the reviews I purchased a full size down. I normally wear a size 10 in Nike and Adidas, size 9 in Thursday Boots, but when the shoes arrived they were a size 9 was a little big. I returned the shoes and repurchased the shoes on Zappos since they have fast shipping and a great return policy. I ended up ordering a size 8.5 and 8 just to just to compare the two. The 8.5 fit perfect as the 8 was too snug. My advice, go into a red Wing store and try on multiple sizes. if you don't have a store in your area, you should purchase multiple sizes to see which one fits best.
