I was talking to a manager of a shoe store this spring. Was complaining that red wing work boots were no longer my preference. He told me red wing now makes 3 lines of boots. Most people are strictly looking at price so they make a cheap boot to compete. They also make a top of the line boot but most stores do not carry--have to special order. I ordered a pair of the better shoes but have not wore them yet--tooo dang hot to break in new work boots.
Haven't bought a pair for a while now but the last pair, bought about 10 years ago (I buy before I need them) was about $400 with all the trimmings - - - so I don't think they were the cheap ones.
Do work very well though! |
