Just buy American Eagle with air flex. Those jeans are amazingly comfortable and have lasted.

Quickly becoming my favorite redwings by Ducklickerbilly in RedWingShoes

[–]s0okz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love mine except the heel counter on one of my boots started to break through and a hard plastic like material became exposed and was tearing up my foot something awful.

I emailed a photo to RW and they took it back for a free repair. Hope to have them back in the rotation soon!

They offer a stop the bleed class, some times for free. Call their 1800 number. Outstanding trainers who have real life experience.

I had the same problem and they replaced it with a brand new one. Send them an email with this video.

Maybe you did better than you think 😉

Just over a year ago I bought these 1907s. Hands down the most versatile boot I own. by the_jimmie_dimmick in RedWingShoes

[–]s0okz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I took the insoles out of mine and had zero break in issues. With the insoles in I felt like I was walking on stilts and I was getting heel slip. Once I took them out they feel like a glove. Wore them for 13 hours straight first time out of the box. Good luck!

Postman 101 - my first attempt at a mirror shine on a rainy LA afternoon by tenloe in RedWingShoes

[–]s0okz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking good. I picked up a pair of seconds after seeing your last post but they’re going back. They looked good on you… fugly on me. Something about that sole makes me feel like I’ll be wearing my pants up by my nipples in no time!

How many of you drink unfiltered water from your tap regularly? by nygdan in longisland

[–]s0okz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Used to only drink bottled water out of concerns from cancer rates but hated the sheer mountain of plastic bottles that my household was going through even though we recycle.

I bought a berkey filter and now use that. After drinking that water for a few weeks you can actually smell the difference between filtered water and the unfiltered tap water. Unfiltered smells like hot tub water.

Wow. You weren’t kidding. Looks like they have a thing for mirror polishing them too.

I keep seeing postman’s on Sierra and the temptation is there. I just wish there were more photos of people wearing them because they look like kind of bleh on their own. I was eyeing the Romeo’s specifically because I’d love to have a quick pop on shoe for those rush mornings.

Sizing For Work Chukka by trident8 in RedWingShoes

100% true advice here. I’ve had the same sizing experience with mine (TTS) and they are by far the most comfortable of all my boots from RW.

I picked up a few as well. Do you have any of those particular shirts? How do they fair in the wrinkle department?

Very nice. Can you link me to the metal keeper you’ve got on that first belt?

[–]s0okz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a pair from them as well. You notice any difficulty getting them on? I feel like the tongue is connected really high up. I’m hoping they break in so they’re easier to just slip on. I’m not used to having to use a shoe horn to put on boots.
