Red Wing Iron Ranger boots

I oscillated between both those colors. They are both awesome. I really liked the lighter ones but they weren't avail in my size. Figured the amber is a good compromise for the oxblood, which they didn't have either. I'm really excited about these. Haven't bought a pair of boots in a good five years. Jackets always trumped them and I just stuck with my chuck taylors, with some MEGA socks when it got cold.

Just got these finally. I have a LOT of boots, and I was very excited to get them. All in all, very impressed, but I will say that I think that Thorogood's premier lines are a bit better, overall.
I do love them, and I'd say maybe they run a 1/4 size larger than tagged. That's good for me as I wear merino wool all year long, and even after two days, I can feel them getting more comfortable.
These are the "muleskinner" model.
Yeah, it's 73ºf now...

They take a couple weeks to break in but after that there is nothing more comfortable.These are five years old....
They did! Been wearing the heck out of them, especially since there's just the cold to contend with and no snow or ice. I can see where the sole wouldn't fair to well with freezing liquid. I love them and I'm definitely glad I went with my standard size.

I have a few pair of Iron Rangers and Beckmans. I just picked up a pair in Rough and Tough Copper with the Vibram sole. Unlike my other pairs, they were quite comfortable out of the box. The leather is supple and the Vibram sole is a bit more cushioned and gives a bit more than the nitrile cork.
