8809s in Tidal Blue - foot size measured at the Fredericksburg, VA Red Wing store…glad I did - ordered directly from RedWing.com - 100% comfortable right out of the box - They came with thin, black cotton waxed laces which I promptly replaced with the thick, black leather laces that Red Wing included in the box - The color…Tidal Blue…really rich/deep…love it - These boots are easily dressed with jeans, camo, twill - THEY LOOK AND FEEL AMAZING
What is the best thing to use on these please? There is no info on the shoes page on the red wing site, but assuming they are the same as the heritage boots. On that page it says to use “Leather Conditioner or neats foot leather cream” I use the leather conditioner on my cherry boots and they are shiny, I like the matt finish on the copper ones. Is there a way to keep them looking like that please?
I purchased the same size in the Dynaforce that I have in the iron rangers, but I’m concerned the Dynaforce is too small. Or is rubbing of the two small toes on the steel inside the boot a normal part of breaking in steel toe boots? Thanks
