Red Wing Shoes

@D97x7:

I've found they do tend to stretch a bit, when they've stopped making your feet bleed. The size 9s above felt tight when new but as they broke in have become to loose for a normal sock really, whereas the 8s are fine. Nither pair were tight width ways though.
IF they feel tight when you put your foot in without lacing them up then they're too narrow.

Thanks for feedback. With a heavy heart these might have to go on the block…:(

Balls to it. I am taking the pain road with these.

Hectic what is you normal us shoe size?  Just trying to figure out if i should do a 12 im a us13

[DougNg]

I sized a full size down from sneakers. I'm consistently 10.5 in sneakers and I got a 9.5 in my RW's

[D97x7]

I usually take a UK 9 but in RW's an 8 fits fine.

I am a US 13 in most sneakers (Nike, Adidas) and my Red Wing 875s are a US 12 and my 3140s are a US 13. Both fit perfectly.

[Gilbertt]

awesome!! thanks Doug and Jii.

[hectic]

Sorry, I also meant to comment. I am typically a UK 12 (US 13), and I take a UK11 (US 12) in all the RedWings I have had (current agony aside…).

I've found it best to wear them for a couple of days to break them in then leave them of untill my feet have healed. The next time you put them on they should feel fine.

What insoles do you guys use for RW?

[DougNg]

I use Dr Scholls work insoles. I've spent hours on my feet doing inspections and they're very comfortable

[J. Goh]

Anybody here has a pair of engineer boots? I'm contemplating on purchasing them.

In the size 9s I've got a sports inner sole, in the 8s I don't need anything.

I have a pair of the 2268's with steel toe. They are a really solid boot. I would recommend going tts on these . I sized down 1 to us 9 & they are too tight for me. I am going to have to sell them & size up.

Volls are great, i've only bought from them once, but it was good service.

Holy crap cool beats! Of course they're sold out in my size… i'll have to try and find those elsewhere. I have kept my RW brand new in their boxes over the summer, i think its finally time to break in my boots... was certainly IHSH-32 weather tonight, i'm lovin it!
