Red Wing 1907 Moc Toe in Copper Rough and Tough Leather

The Red Wing 1907 Moc Toes in Copper Rough and Tough Leather. I borrowed a pair from a Red Wing Sales Rep. These 1907s are gorgeous! I can now see why many folks love their 1907s.

I’ve just got my 1907 and this is first crt in my collections after 3 years of shelving the ideas of getting one. This boots is super comfortable on my 3rd day.Can’t wait for it to develop its own characteristics.But I must say I still have reservations to condition it with boot oil tho I loved how it looks in this video 😝maybe years down the road I might change my mind.Thanks CJ for all your videos on Redwing boots.Your videos are one of the many reasons I fell in love with Redwing heritage boots.

[@CJCook]

Thank you for watching! Congrats on the new boots.

Hi CJ,from Bangkok, Thailand. Thanks a million for sharing. I’ve just put on my first Red Wing Boots 875 for two months. I really love it much that didn’t even know these boots existed. I bought from Japan.

[@CJCook]

Hello Bangkok! Welcome to the Red Wing community. 875s are a great choice as a first.

[@nuchajunprapha1435]

Hi CJ,I have a confession. My wife doesn’t know that how much does it totally cost. I’m afraid of her.

[@juliusrogarcianoporol1017]

Its my first rw pair.. 1907 rough and tough.. breaking it is hard it almost made me gave up,, since i am a dm's guy.. but now i can say its worth it..

[@panamabrad]

When i plan to be on my feet all day with a lot of walking i go with the 1907 with that insole really makes a difference.Still prefere the unsoled hardcore cork footbeld molded to my foot like the 875's etc. Plus the 1907 seems heavier so i wear more in winter.Thanks for sharing CJ!

[@jmoak311]

Was just about to buy the leather cream for my CRT IR’s but after seeing these I’m leaning towards the boot oil. Those are gorgeous.

[@mikeslimjimlim]

They look great treated, thanks for sharing!

[@charleswilbur8765]

I’m sorry, but nothing ages better than Copper Rough & Tough. It just gets that classic worn in leather look that I always fall for. Plus, no two leathers patina exactly the same with the color, so it has a bit of uniqueness which is great

[@ricardovarajr]

I’m a size 10 and i got a size 9EE for the 1907 and 8138. Perfect fits. I have a super narrow foot and this seemed to be the sizes most fitting for myself.

[@CJCook]

That is perfect!!

[@huwjones4214]

Watched a lot of your reviews! Good work dude!

[@CJCook]

Thank you!

[@chrispaine2265]

How does the sizing compare to the 8 last? I know you’re unsure in the video, but hoping you have a better idea now.

[@CJCook]

I would go a full size up from last 8 because of the leather insert.

[@kuma0141]

Hi CJ. Thank for show me to redwing 1907. But I feel a little sad. Because don't sell 1907 in redwing japan now.

[@CJCook]

Really? That is surprising and unfortunate.

[@vllrrql]

Great informational video! Love your presentations! Thanks!!!

[@CJCook]

Thank you for watching Anthony

[@vinculos119]

Damn, the color was spot on. I wish my Copper RT IRs look this glossy but in some reviews using boot oil made them look too dark.

[@CJCook]

Yeah these were conditioned so well.

[@LKalldays]

Just got a pair, curious if this specific red wing oil is the difference?

[@vinculos119]

@@LKalldays I used Neatsfoot oil blend (leather cream) and the boots were darken a bit but still pretty much in a cooper-red shade which I like. But I never tried a regular boot oil or mink oil.

[@Lasermanprint]

Hey CJ I I picked up a pair of 875 Mock's Toes yesterday and I'm very happy with my new boots, if it wasn't for you and Nick from stridewise I would never have heard about Red Wing boots as I live in Australia. Thanks for all the boot Reviews

[@CJCook]

Congrats on the new boots! Great choice going with the 875s. 👍🏽

The 8890 looks good with the dark selvedge pants. It deserves a spot in the rotation.

[@philipmartin1816]

Hi, just got a pair of 1907's, love them. These are my first pair of Redwings and am wondering what the best way to treat them is. What is the best oil to use and how often. Try not to give to many options for this beginner lol. Thanks!

[@GTKILL888]

I wonder how often these have been treated. That leather shiny looks fantastic.

[@CJCook]

Yeah, not sure but the Natural Boot Oil did wonders to that leather. I did give them a brushing before I did the video.

[@johnmutton799]

What is a 1908 moc toe? Any idea? Thanks for all the information!

[@CJCook]

The RW 1908 Moc Toe is an anniversary addition. It is a cross between the Beckman and a standard RW moc toe.

[@johnmutton799]

@@CJCook thanks! Just got offered a pair!

[@JJ-lu6mg]

They make the 1907’s in EE widths. I think the 23 last is a more narrow last than the 45 last I actually wish they made more options on the 45 last.

[@jamesd3002]

I’m between these and the briar oil slick moc toes, I would preferably like a color inbetween the two, if I applied mink oil on brand new 1907s would it darken the leather to be that color I’m looking for?

[@CJCook]

Yes, they would darken but they would go back to (somewhat) normal after some time

[@abmorose6531]

1907 Red wings are so comfortable and wonderful , that you can imagine yrself doing the JIG dance on CAPRICE 1807 Classical piece.

[@tommy1138]

I read that you should buy your normal shoe size in the 1907 and not size down (like everyone recommends) if you want to avoid pain and discomfort for a few weeks. The article said that the Red Wing leather is too strong for normal stretching and it can really mess up your feet if you size down and tolerate it. Is this true?

[@CJCook]

The 1907 comes with a leather insert. If you plan to keep it in I would not size down.

[@danielgannon9502]

"Lost my train of thought". LOL! Happens to me all the time. Right off the track... Enjoyed the video as always CJ. Until recently I had no moc toe Red Wings. I bought the 875s and the 9705s (in the black harness leather) after watching your video reviews of both, and also bought the 1907s when I found them at Sierra TP at a great price. They took over three weeks to show up (which they eventually did over a week ago) but have not yet tried them on. I'm still trying to break in the other two! I'm also considering the 8205s in Brown Boomer. Any thoughts on those? Thanks.

[@CJCook]

875 9075 Daniel you are going for the classics! 8205s are also a sexy moc to add to your collection.

[@Orlanzepol123]

I think my next boot will be a Moc toe in R & T leather. But I hear stitching near the toes hurt like hell and that they’re very narrow. I might try the wider width. I don’t enjoy the breaking process very much. Maybe I am not used to it because I never had to break in any of my Clark’s. They all feel like you’re walking on pillows. 😂

[@artbyty]

Damn that patina is beautiful

[@CJCook]

Yes, his boots are lovely.

[@redgjma]

Just got my first pair of Red Wings in 1907. I was fitted and got a half size down from what I normally wear and the break in is rough. How do you go about breaking in your boots? Any recommendations?

[@CJCook]

Hey Gabriel, I break in a boot with Band-Aids and wool socks.

[@limjazzdedragonheryadi1290]

Hey Cook! I've been really enjoying your videos. I'm going to visit New York in july for my vacation What do you think the best boots for traveling the New York?

[@CJCook]

NYC in July is hot and also unpredictable. I would probably bring a Round Toe, Blacksmith or Moc Toe nothing in a leather you would not want to get caught in a rain storm. What are your options?

[@doug_sports_collector]

Can you run a boot creme / polish over these or stay with oil? Great video.

[@CJCook]

yes, you can use either. The best thing is to keep the leather hydrated.

[@K8TO88]

Great review CJ, agree nice boot, narrow at the toe box, I own a pair and only wear them every so often because of that.. CJ what do you think of the REDWING "Featherstone" Chelsea No.9077??????

9077...great looking chelsea and I love the color!

[@radeon76]

I just got my self a pair 1907 from Red Wing shop in anchorage . and they are most comfortable of Red Wing shoes right out of the box. now in iron ranger my size is 10.0 EE and in the Red Wing moc toe shoe my size is 10.5 EE . I just wish Red Wing made more heritage shoes in my size. it seems most shoe I wish could get only come in D.

[@CJCook]

Yeah, you would have to take a trip to Asia to have more Heritage options in your size.

[@henryperez606]

[@CB-qf8yx]

I want to re-sole my 1907's with a black Vibram mini lug, basically making it a Cooper Moc. Any reason that sole wouldn't work with the Norwegian welt?

[@CJCook]

No reason, I think they would look cool.

[@ryanchow7601]

Thanks for doing this. I wear an 11 in 875, would I be ok with a 12 for 1907?

[@CJCook]

Yes, you could leave the insert in or an 11.5 would work

That leather looks incredible. Nothing like my cooper rough and tough. He used all natural boot oil? That’s the stuff that everyone on Reddit freaks out about that will ruin your boots by turning them so much darker. I like the look though. May have to give it a try.
