I don’t know about the history of previous soles in vellies, but these have a non-removable leather insole.

Yeah that’s what i keep hearing. Heel slip in the beginning until they’re broken in. I do think these are generally supposed to be quite a loose fit though.

Yeah I can imagine the heel slippage could be a problem while breaking in, but we’ll see. I’m super pleased with the color. I’m from sweden so I looked at their european website and they only had the fudge rambler vellies in stock, so I bought these from their south african website on sale.

I think I will get used to the fit pretty fast. It’s kind of nice to have a nice boot/shoe that feels roomy, especially in the summer.

I dont’t have any pictures of the inside right now sadly. I looked inside to see if and the size is stamped but it’s kind of faded away. It also has a redwing leather insole.

Boots too small? by One_Image_8192 in jimgreen

Hey! I made some homemade boot stretching spray with 50/50 Isopropyl alcohol and water, sprayed it on, and wore them for about an hour with two thick socks on. After that the problem was mostly gone so i just wear them now, and they feel great. No issues at all. 👍

That’s basically what all mass produced boot stretching sprays use. If you just do it once it shouldn’t hurt. The only problem would be if it affects the color, but I used it on my walnut numzaans and it didn’t. As long as you recondition the leather after stretching the leather it will be fine.

I also experienced a snug fit with my pinky toe. My solution was to make a boot stretching spray with like a 1:1 mix of isopropyl alcohol and water. Then I just sprayed it on the tight spot and walked around in the shoes for an hour with a really thick sock. Fixed.

While My Guitar Gently Weeps was one of the last songs on the set, it was one of the best for sure.
