This is all so helpful. Thank you! My question (for anyone who reads this and feels motivated to respond, can U tell the difference between the two aesthetically when wearing? I prefer the men’s IR based on the photos I’ve seen. I own a pair of pre loved iron rangers in a womens 9b. For awhile I’ve been searching for the mens IR in black, because in my mind I’ve decided they will look better than their counterpart. I’m curious to read in in the comments to see if anyone mentions this. I’m also struggling w what size I wear, bcuz I can’t go into the store and try them. I did so much searching the internet for answers and I found two things that helped but I can’t be sure of either. I’m curious if anyone who wears a women’s 9 IR owns their counterpart as well, and what size they ended up going with? Il continue to watch your videos, maybe I’ll find more info.
@DenimDarlinКүн бұрын
Hi! Aesthetically, the men’s IR is rounder/bulkier looking in the toe box and the women’s is sleeker looking. But that’s a detail only someone who knows Red Wing will know. I find the size difference in men’s is usually 2 sizes bigger and in some cases 2.5 sizes off (since they’re handmade there are sometimes variations). Some of my men’s sizes have fit bigger than others. You’d probably be a 7D in mens if you wear a women’s 9.

Hello, I have two pair of women's Red Wings -- the black moc toe 3373, and stone color round toe 3448. Something I don't like about the women's sole is that they turn yellow and get stained pretty much permanently. I had my 3448 boots resoled by Red Wing, putting the men's crepe sole on them. Do you have a good suggestion on how to clean the women's soles? I've tried lots of things, saddle soap seems the best, but it's still not that great. Thank you for your videos!

I have the work line, and my son has the heritage line. As I had refused to buy a boot for looks. But his came with a leather insole as mine did not. That was easily the price difference. I purchased the leather insole about a year later. Big difference. Now your telling me the heritage has thicker leather? As I expected, because I clean and oil both pairs. But the work line comes in more sizes and a better warranty. Good video.

Is the sizing not different between the two? I bought my wife the Claras in her brannock size, and they fit perfectly, but when she tried on iron rangers at the store, even one size down was too big. I thought the silversmith is supposed to be true to size as well. Maybe it’s confusing because there is a women’s version of the iron ranger which uses the same last.
@DenimDarlin16 күн бұрын
Hi! That’s interesting. I am true to Brannock in my Clara’s, but size up, by half a size, in my Silversmith’s and Iron Rangers. They are definitely too small for me in my Brannock size.

@@DenimDarlin Thanks for the reply! Hmm, I wonder if the employee brought her the men's Iron Ranger then since a men's 5.5 would be a women's 6.5, and that's where the confusion was. Thanks for making these videos; it's really hard to find info on women's Red Wings!

It has been a year since you posted this video...and I was wondering just how these boots have faired for you in that amount of time. I have always wanted a pair of Pacific Northwest Boots, (White's, Nick's, Franks's or JK's), but cannot really afford the price tag. I was told...these Bordon's, are just as well made, at about half the cost. Considering ordering myself a pair of these. Just wondered what you thought about them after a year. I am sure you have had time to get them broke in fairly well. Well...if you happen to see this...maybe you could do another video, on how they are after a years time. You have a new subscriber...and you get a "like". Thanks for posting...

I know this is an older video but my experience with the RW Chelsea boots is that my normal Iron Ranger size, 6.5, is just too tight in the Chelsea boots. I got those boots to wear to a specific event. They arrived 2 days before said event and I stuffed my feet in them but was in absolute misery the whole night. I tried afterwards to wear them a few hours every other day hoping they’d stretch. Nope. I wish I’d used that money to buy something like the Silversmith instead.
