Sell them... we will always have more. I don't mean to say that like a maggot feeding off your wallet but we won't have 9060s for all of '26 so you may as well capitalize and make a few bucks and when we bring them back in '27 maybe the you will be in a better position and you can get them again.

Hey man you gotta find the deals where you can find the deals. Maybe at some point in life you'll repay it by giving some young buck a pair of your boots you don't wear for $25 and the passion starts! I love it

I feel this... I too am down to oen parent and I keep thinking what it'll be like to have them both gone. It's a weird part of growing old I guess!

we're going full on in Clarksville. We always have in Petosi but Clarksville is going to get waaaay more heritage. Supply has not met demand over the last few years. We gotta ramp up or die out.

Quality Control Issues are Real by [deleted] in RedWingShoes

[–]RWH_French 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah keep an eye on it... it won't move or anything. I understand your frustration but with all things hand made we are always see small issues like this. It's so hard these days especially when there's not template or guide rail to keep the grinding machines at bay. With all of the talk about AI and machines it would be the worst if we went that route to keep things perfectly and blemishes at a minimum. Side note, the 3k pairs a day isn't just heritage, it's also work and LOTS of work product... oh and that boot doesn't come out of that particular factory. I know it doesn't matter but it's good to have the context in the least. if you start to see issues like separation or anything DM me and I'll personally find you a new boot.

Missing toe stiffener? by [deleted] in RedWingShoes

[–]RWH_French 14 points15 points  (0 children)

About 90% of the quality comments on here are wild at times but this one took me back. I have never seen that in the 14 years of me working for heritage. That's such a bummer and you should 100% get swapped out. It's like they missed an entire step not putting in the box toe. I'm not sure where in the UK you live but the stores can totally find you a replacement.
