Red Wing 1907 boots

Had Timberland Earthkeepers for years. Looking for another pair but ran across Red Wing. Anyone own a pair of these 1907s, and are they well worth the money ($275.00) ? About $100.00 more than the China made Timberlands. If so I'd gladly buy the American made product.

You'd fit right in at the artisinal cheese festival.

Yes they are the best boots I've ever owned. They are building a nice patina

I don't have those but I've tried a few other brands and I'm sold on Red Wing.
They are worth the money. Most stores will oil and change the laces free of charge after a year or so. I have the 2406.

No but I plan on owning a pair of these very soon. Anything made by Red Wing is very high quality.
I prefer the Red Wing Iron Rangers to those moc toe's, but still like the moc toe's alot.

Do you have a Red Wing store by you? I take mine in to get cleaned/waterpoofed once a month at the store by me.
They will clean them, oil them, waterproof them, replace the laces and/or replace the eyelets for the life of the boot. Also you can pay to get them re-soled because the upper part of the boot will likely outlive the sole.
They look better after a coat of mink oil (darkened the leather) and then as the soles get dirty and become a more cream rather than white.
Also, if you don't wear they with skinny/rolled jeans they don't look as clunky and hipstery

I own one pair of Redwings and 3 pairs of Danners.
Danner is a much more comfortable boot.
Redwings are a year old and still stiff.
