    I've been digging my 952's lately. Not as fancy pants as the Heritage series boots, but available in a B width- and that has made all the difference.

    Did the B-width have a perhaps better claim,
    Because it was grassy and wanted wear?

    Any recommendations on where to shop for boots in Paris?

    I don't normally have access to boots like Redwing Iron Rangers, Chippewa Apaches, etc and would like to try on before purchase.

    I have a few days in Paris/France/Italy and don't want to waste time running around the city to find stockists that don't have my size (12-13) or colour in stock.

    Alternatively, does anyone know brands that are sold in Galleries Lafayette?

    Just received a pair of Danner Rainforests tonight in 9EE. Tried the standard 9Ds, but they were super narrow. Wearing the 9EEs around the house tonight, they feel pretty comfortable already.



    Planning on heading out hiking and dog training in them in the morning. Looking forward to chasing grouse around the Catskills in them this fall.

    Not dress boots, but I hike in Lowa hiking boots. Sometimes I just want to throw on a low top, but I want a low top boot not a sneaker. I saw these Lowa Focus LLs at a shop in Rocky Mountain National Park and left with them. They are great, basically a low top hiking boot. Stiff with great support.

    2 months of daily wear and I like them even more.

    My wife scored some really fun vintage packers yesterday. Apparently my face lit up when I heard the "vmph" of a perfect fit.

    I basically haven't taken these Redwings off since getting them. They built a bike frame, a few wheels, spent days at the shop, went bike racing in the rain, and have been out for dinner. Super comfy, super versatile.

    Just caught this on a site I check occasionally. Sharing it because the belt should match the boots should match the watch strap, no?

    I'm not sure if it's just my local (Fargo, ND) Red Wing store or nation wide, but my wife's friend who works there said they'll be having a 20% off sale from 9AM to 12PM on Black Friday. That's as good as it gets direct from Red Wing from what I've heard.

    Just ordered a new pair of 952's. Perfect shop boot, I am super hard on boots and these last a solid year which is more than any other I have had. I love the comfortable sole

    Yes, I've been wearing mine daily and they are holding up great. The "Supersole" may give up a little to the cristy wedge for stationary standing on hard surfaces, but it's marginal, and the sole durability as an all around walker is superior. Nice height, they break in well, and seem to be hitting most of my boxes. Glad they are working for you, too.

    I may have to alter my boot acquisition strategy a bit to work in the purchase of these:

    Today in Minneapolis it's 0° with a -17° wind chill. I'm wearing these- L.L.Bean Snow Boots: Winter Boots | Free Shipping at L.L.Bean
    My toes are toasty. Unlike the rest of me. Warm like Sorels but with a better guarantee. You could do worse.

    I have an almost identical pair that are the most comfortable things my feet have ever been in. If I didn't have to wear dress shoes for work, I'd wear 'em every day.

    FYI: Red Wing Iron Rangers on a cyber week "lightning sale" at amazon for a few more hours. $198. Grabbed a pair for myself.
