The Red Wing boots are our most basic/standard boots that we have been selling over 6 years in stores . We always recommend our customers the Red Wing boots (or Thorogood Boots) if they never try a real pair of boots before.
The real boots should have these key elements at least that you should always consider about :
* Made with real leathers like :Cowhide , Horsehide etc that you can always take care and age to a better look throughout time
* The construction should be in old fashion ways like : Goodyear Welt Construction , Stitch Down Construction etc which will hold the shapes better than any massive productions
* The outsole could be resoled and customers can always exchange the outsole when they like/need to to ensure they can wear these boots for a lifetime
So here are the photos of a pair of Red Wing 875 has been well worn for 5 years :
This is the owner's first pair of boots so in her first 2 years, she kept on wearing them 5 ~ 6 days per week and did leather cares every 3 ~ 4 months with Red Wing mink oil . And also , she resoled the outsole after 2 years in use
After 2 years in use, she only wears this pair of boots occasionally in some rainy days and does some leather cares yearly . The leather turns to be a little bit drier and appear different shades of brownish colors which feel like a pair of real vintage boots...
It is a pair of boots already get well worn over 1000 days till now, they become much softer and super comfy and the owner said they feels like the second skin for her feet now ~
The stitchings seem still very strong to hold up the boots , we are still looking forward to see her keep on wearing them for another 1000 days for the NEXT LEVEL AGEING LOOK!
