Ботинки Iron Ranger

Как фанат сапог Red Wing Heritage, я подумал, что купить такие жене — отличная идея; я ошибся. У меня есть четыре разные пары мужских Iron Rangers (среди прочих моделей), и я могу однозначно сказать: женские Iron Ranger сделаны НЕ по тем же стандартам, что и мужские. Такое ощущение, что они променяли долговечность и износостойкость на комфорт и стиль. Я в какой-то степени могу это понять, но ценник этого не оправдывает — мужские и женские стоят одинаково. Кожа на моих (мужских) Iron Rangers в цвете amber harness кажется толще и прочнее. Когда я держу свой сапог в руке, он ощущается как качественная вещь. Женский сапог amber harness ощущается дешевым. Он очень легкий. Кожа кажется тоньше. Стелька — это не цельный кусок кожи растительного дубления, как в мужских, а кусок мягкой кожи с мягкой пеной внутри. Вдобавок к дешевому материалу стельки, между краем стельки и самой кожей обуви есть большая щель, в которую проваливалась мизинчик моей жены. Может, ее пара была исключением, может, это была «пятничная партия» в 16:55, я не знаю. В общем, довольно разочаровывающе для сапог ценой $320, сделанных в USA.

My normal foot size is 6-1.2 but I usually order a 7 in shoes/boots that run narrow. I read the reviews about the Iron Ranger (and Red Wing Heritage for women) and decided to go up another 1/2 size to a 7-1/2. My foot is a wide by 1 pink, so I don't need a wide width unless the foot bed is cut narrow. These boots fit perfectly. The leather is gorgeous, and it does stretch. The fit was a bit tight at first but within 5 minutes of walking around the house in these boots, they are conforming to my feet. Beautiful beautiful footwear. And Made In The USA label on the inside tip of the tongue.

I’m a 9.5. Ordered a 9.5. Length was accurate. I have a narrow heel but wide-ish forefoot. Not usually wide enough to necessitate buying wide shoes as long as the design isn’t tapered/pointy in the toe box. These felt nicely snug around my mid foot, but a little too snug around my 4th, 5th, and “6th” toe bone. Not terrible, but not quite enough space to be comfortable. Leather feels rich a supple, but the amber harness brown wasn’t as interesting as the copper rough and tough offered in the Silversmith style (it’s hard to tell in pictures, but that leather shows lovely orangey-copper creases as the leather bends, creases and breaks in- making it just look richer and better over time). However it might be a better choice if you want the boot to look “new” or more polished.

Sturdy and stylish! I tagged these as narrow because they fit my narrow foot perfectly. Give these a try! PS: to whomever returned these first… shame on you for stealing the manufacturer box, the felt protective covers and the certificate of authenticity and getting all your money back! And come on Zappos, sending me merchandise in a junky box with no documentation? For $300+, you can do better than that!

These boots fit like a glove. The reviews state that there isn't a lot of wiggle room either in the heel or toe box and that's true. They are not tight, however. They are very comfortable with mid-weight wool socks. It took only one short walk to my office to decide they are perfect and worth the cost. I love how the tongue is sewed farther up the sides than some boots. It stays in place without needing a loop on the front.

I absolutely love these boots! The break-in period is definitely no joke and was absolutely painful so be prepared. Took about 2 weeks of wearing them to really feel good. It's been 2 months now and they fit perfectly. They looks great and the leather feels nice and soft. Tempted on buying them in all colors.

I would recommend these boots. I have had mine for almost a year, and they have held up really well. I wear them pretty much everyday its under 55/60 degrees (in Wisconsin, that's a lot). They were comfy when I got them and still are. I condition the leather about every month or two and it's held up really well, and looks only lightly used.

I normally wear a size 8 or 8.5 in sneakers, decided to get these in size 8 and they fit snug (but not uncomfortable) around the toe area. I've read reviews on reddit that say you're suppose to have a snug fit because the leather will stretch as you wear them out. I have narrow feet, so I can't comment much about the width. The build quality of these boots are amazing. I can smell the strong scent of leather when I took them out of the box and when I put them on my feet, I can really tell that these were built to last. For me, these were a bit stiff, but still comfortable right out of the box. After wearing them out for 2 weeks, the forefoot area has gotten significantly more comfortable when my toes bend as I walk. I agree with a previous reviewer, the leather around the ankle might take some time to break in (b/c there isn't much movement in that area normally). I just wear a pair of long socks and they have given me no problem at all. I expect these to last me many years to come!

I normally wear a 9.5 to 10, and found the 9.5 to be a better fit. It's a little snug, but the leather stretches as you break them in. The break in period is pretty rough, but after a couple weeks they'll be the most comfortable boot you own! Mine have held up amazingly well over the years, and are still fairly waterproof, though I definitely recommend the occasional cleaning and conditioning. These are boots built to last and very comfortable after the break-in period!

These boots are so beautiful. I wore them to my job and got multiple compliments! They take a bit to break in, so I may feel better about the comfort soon. Recommend mink oil to help the breaking in process.
