## Description

Handcrafted in the USA with durable stitch-down welt construction and premium quality leather, the Iron Ranger boot from Red Wing will offer years of comfortable wear. This robust boot is built on a non-marking, oil-resistant sole and handsomely detailed with contrast stitching, a cap toe, and high polish hooks and eyelets.Dear first time buyers, Red Wing Shoes tend to run larger than your regular shoe size. Please take this into consideration when purchasing a pair.Please note, in the manufacturing process, staples are used to adhere the insole to the plastic last. These staples may penetrate the surface of the insole leaving small holes and pushing up a small amount of the grain of the leather insole. Care instruction-Use warm water and a soft bristle brush to remove stuck-on dirt. Then use a clean, dry cloth to wipe away any remaining excess dirt

Review: Amazing beautiful boots !!! - I bought the 8119. If you're in doubt about buying these because they're so expensive and you wounder about it's quality, don't be. They are exactly as described. Well built, perfect material. But be aware of 2 important issues that everyone discusses. 1. Size - I went down a full size ! I am a 44 EU in all of my boots and sometimes I need to go up, not down. My sneakers are 45 EU. So I went for 11US/10UK/44EU. It was way too big ! And I compared them with my other boots and they were bigger than all of them !!!! I went down a half size but still it remained bigger so I ended up ordering 10US/9UK/43EU. Maybe the problem is with the conversion, cause usually 11US is a 45EU not 44EU. The shoe last is perfect. My toes don't touch the leather end, and they have room to move. They fit like a glove ! 2. The break in period: For what I read, this model is much softer thant most. This leather is thick, resistant and soft to the touch. You put them on and they feel great, but you know you have to take it easy. Forget the idea to put them on and go for a long walk. I started wearing them around the house and go out for just short minute walks. After some time I would have to take them off. I'm at the end of the first week now and I can wear them on for a full morning or afternoon without complaints. No blisters whatsoever. A few more days and it will be over. Conclusion : There must be a break in period ! After that you're free to enjoy this excellent product !!!
Review: GREAT TRUE TO SIZE RED WING BOOTS - Saw these great boots on desertcart at half normal price, only size available in black was size 7 (41), and only one pair was available. I am a size 7, but everywhere, on Red Wing's website, customer reviews and on the product listing for this item, it recommends buying a size down, luckily they weren't available in size 6 (40) otherwise I would have ordered them in that size. I was fully expecting them to be too big and reluctantly having to return them, but they fit perfectly and instantly feel really comfortable. Cannot understand where sizing down comes from, all I can recommend is stay true to your normal size. That said, the boots are superb, great quality made to last Red Wings.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Possibly the best Red Wing boots
*by G***A on 4 December 2016*

This is my fourth poor of red wings and I think the best. I have a pair of Beckmans which are very heavy and have taken me 12 months to break in , but are pretty cool. They are more like workman boots, my chelsea boots and chukkas are good. I had my eye on the iron Ranger and eventually I have go them because of these being available with Vibram soles and the amazing colour. These seem to be made of a softer leather and didn't take long to break in. They are solid and look good, I have had them a week and I am always getting compliments on them. They will be hard wearing and already are very comfortable. For me they fit as expected, and don't rub anywhere. Highly recommended also are Aphrodite clothing from who I get these well within 48 hours of ordering, almost next day.
