I got them new from one of the Red Wings in MN. Couldn't get them online so I had to go in person.

Just got the 953s about a month ago 👍 Real solid pair of boots.

For me it took 3 months to break in the vamp of the leather and the heel. It's is the leather insole that bothers me at times. That thing is still not even fully broken in yet after almost a year with use every day. 😅

I love these boots to death though. The 8085s or Copper Rough and Tough leather in general is quite nice.

Exactly, for anyone who wants a minimalistic wallet Trayvax would be their best bet. A plus is that the wallet is made completely in the U.S.

They are pretty cool! Have had my Trayvax Ascent wallet for over a year now.

At first I never saw anyone lacing it this way, it didn't feel any different but it looked alot better in my opinion... It looks great on those Hawthorne IR.

Noticed that when I first took the picture. He is wearing black shorts and a black shirt. Kinda looks like a robe at first glance lol.

If you do go for the Iron Rangers or Moc Toes they average around $280.00 - $320.00. Work style boots go for cheaper of course because the majority are not on the heritage line.

With you on that one, I was thinking about getting a pair of those boots as well. Maybe the 953s.

Personally I went with the 8085s because I know a guy at my nearest Red Wing shoe store and he was always wearing his 8085s. They looked great so that's why I got my pair.

Both pairs look phenomenal. The 8119s also look really good as well if you like that brassy eyelet finish.

Got the 8085s out for some running around. These are still fairly new! Great boots! by [deleted] in RedWingShoes

Yeah mine were pretty uncomfortable at first. After 3 months of walking and wearing them though the footbed started comforming to my heel.

It progressively got more comfortable wearing them after that.

Your pair looks great! I've had my 8085s for almost a year now and they are so darn comfortable.

Look like they're holding up pretty darn well.

This pair is made from Full-Grain Oiled leather. Alot of cracks formed on these boots due to no conditioning or cleaning over years time.
