Solid boots that will last. If you have large feet the 'silhouette' might not do you any favours. Still, for people with normal-size or small feet, it's hard to beat them at their price point. Their shoes are not quite as nice as their boots; I don't mean that anything is very different, the two are very similar, I just think the formula doesn't work as well for their shoes. Also, I have some of their oxblood oxfords, and I'm not happy with the moc toe on them, it doesn't actually seem to be moccasin stitching. It's weird, I don't like that. Anyway, their boots come highly recommended from me, just remember to be careful about sizing.

Bought a pair because I heard good things about Red Wing, so I made my way to the local Red Wing shop. I was surprised at the price they charged, but I bought a pair of the 875s cause I thought the color was beautiful. Sure, there are those who complain about the "clown silhouette", but those who complain about them are usually skinny twinks. As long as its all proportional to your body. The first few wears will always be painful, because of the leather insoles, but once you have them broken in, they'll be the most comfortable boots you'll wear in your lifetime.
