>>9279884
oh no people are liking something I like! Better stick "lol reddit" in front of it!
Okay whew I'm cool again.
people always hate on clarks but they aren't half as bad as "heritage" work boots.
redwings are literally fedora-level affectation
Fuck I just bought these too.
Fuk OP fuk
I really did just buy these, mainly because I wanted something that decent and would last. I also went heavily by the Reddit reviews.
Does this fucking mean I'm going to get tipped on the bus.
Please tell me it ain't true OP.
>>9280443
Fuck you cunts are insecure.
But yes these boots are shit and will look shit unless you go full work wear, which looks like shit anyway
>>9280466
so not true...works with shirts that aren't flannel + parkas etc. Blue/black jeans.
Eyy I wonder how many orders these guys have made, they literally bought so many LL Bean ducky fucky boots that they went behind for months.
Check out this reddit thread for toppest of keks

THANK YOU OP FOR INFORMING ME.

>>9280491

Have fun with your insecurities, you special flowers.

Whatever makes you feel better about owning neckbeard boots mate : )
>tfw just copped black iron rangers for 50% off
lmao
>>9280669
I copped le brown leddit rangers, they will look great with my drop crotch trousers and $300 plain black t-shirt.
>>9280669
I don't even own iron rangers.
But hey, whatever helps validate your superior fashion sense dude. You clearly know better than everyone else, so I'm glad you let us know. :)
>>9280551
you have no eye
>>9279884
But they're actually great boots.
>>9280753
Yeah bro! Lay red wings are great quality... and let's not forget muh heritage.
>>9280529
Serious question: What's wrong with Bean boots? I live in New England and everyone wears these during the winter. I usually think of them as an old man boot actually.
>>9280924
Nothing. They're highly functional if you live in a cold climate. But they're insanely popular among preppy college kids so /fa/ hates them.
>>9280670
where you mong
>>9280969
I got brown Iron Rangers (Amber) for £174 inc. delivery.
>>9281018
I got a pair in Amber for $117
>>9280523
lmao u deffo dress like shit
>>9281130
Can't really match that in the UK, the sale I found was obscure as fuk in itself. No sale would ever sell them for that low.
>>9281248
deffo XD XD

Kek
>>9281277
I walked into a Marshalls right after Christmas and they had a pair in the clearance bin. The store usually sells crappy and overstocked clothing from inexpensive brands, so I have no idea what they were doing there. They don't even fit me.
>>9281346
You found a unicorn m8
>>9280443
don't worry babe, at least you don't have Doc's like me
Could be worse. You could have bought Katahdins like me.
>>9281363
But aren't Docs nouveau 2015? I copped the Iron Ranger's, the ones in the pic, based largely on Leddit's advice.
Then copped some Left Field Greaser jeans to fit my /fit/izen thighs. Going to cop some shirts, better hit Leddit again for more tips.
nice boots bro thanks for letting me borrow them
You know, because of this place I go to leddit for more and more shit it is basically exactly like this place.
Fuck you guys
Are Dayton service boots fedora tier as well?
>>9281465
anything made of leather is fedora tier granddad fuccboi
>>9281465
Dayton's own service boot is overpriced as fuck and pretty terrible looking
The Wings and Horns collab is mad fucking dope tho
>>9280420
wait what?
by this logic, if you compare something you wear to reddit, that makes you cool.
>>9280924
nothing except all those basic bitches in maine wearing down jackets, black leggings and instead of knee-high riding boots, bean boots.
I can't get into boots, they make me look like I give a shit
>2013
>not AE dalton boots
enjoy your made in china shit

topmost kek
/fa/ really needs to pretend you didn't just shit on their bread n butter
Person who actually does real man's work, here. Thought you all should know that in the world of physical labor, the redwings kids are still considered neckbeard plebs. They've never used any other brand of steel toe and they swear it's the best ever. They think their taste in emo metal is brutal and they've also got a best friend in the Navy so u better not talk shit about murica bro
>>9281851
what do you use, then?
>>9281858
probably cheap worker's boots since they get intensive use and spending 100s of dollars on Red Wings would be stupid
>>9281740
>le wenches :)
>workwear
move along mfa
>>9280383
Geez how long ago was that
red wings are good quality, probably the best in their price range. they dont cut corners, have hard wearing leathers, and have solid quality control
that being said, iron rangers are probably their worst model
>ugly last
>bulbous toe
>useless sole
>overhyped as fuck
what's funny is that /r/mfa is literally a less extreme /fa/ 6-12 months in the past.
>>9281881
> they dont cut corners, have hard wearing leathers, and have solid quality control
Sure thing, but they're not really "worker boots" (as their marketing claims) as they wouldn't last more than 1-2 years (at most, as evidenced by numerous redditors) daily, rough use.
>>9279884
Bb-but how am I supposed to wear my 300$+ fashion boots in the rain when it's not waterproof? Should I grab a pair of those super stylish made in Maine golashboots?
>>9281932
They Know lol. Unless they're in denial they know.
>>9281932
and /fa/ itself is already prvs lvl
>>9281969
Mine are past 3 years of dailyish rough usage without being all torn up. If you're working construction or something, then yeah, they'll get destroyed, but not everyone is doing that. Hell, a lot of carpenters and such buy Red Wings even when they know they'll get destroyed just to keep their feet in good shape.
>>9281969
they're heritage styled fashion boots
if you want work boots, buy work boots, which redwing makes plenty of
>>9280455
there was an /fa/ meetup recently?
>>9281858
My wolverines fell apart by the time I finished tradeschool. Thorogood and its STS clones are terrible. Keen Utility has proven to be durable but the styles aren't very effay. I knew a guy who built Caterpillar equipment and got free CAT boots, and they held up very well.
Next I will probably try Timberland or a different Keen pair.
>>9281870
Exactly. Spending $200+ on work boots is silly if you're doing lots of heavy construction, welding or metal fabrication. Nothing lasts more than a year or two in those conditions.
I still like my CDBs
The thing that makes IR unsuitable as work boots isn't the quality, it's the design from the 1930s. They're uncomfortable as fuck. In years past it use to be a given your boots would be painful. In the 1800s you didn't even get a right or left boot.
Modern work boots feel like you're wearing a big running shoe.
So wait
Am I a pleb now for getting these 875s then?
>>9282106
>They're uncomfortable as fuck.
say what
I mean they are leather boots so it's kinda given they will hurt before they shape to your feet but they are pretty fucking comfortable after that, granted I always buy good insoles for my boots.
>>9282632
I don't see how anyone can think these looks good. The sole itself is so repulsive.
>>9282632
They could have looked good if they had a separate heel.
>>9282637
They have zero cushioning. RIP your knees if you're standing in those all day.
>>9282698
Like I said, I buy insoles for them
Really you are kinda fucking retarded if you don't buy some as well, most boots have shitty insoles as default or just plain don't have any
>>9282712
WHich ones do you use? I usually use superfeet in my shoes, but they don't work well in boots. raises the heel up too much.
>>9282677
can you post a few fits? An imgur album or something? I need inspiration.
>mfw imagining some scrawy white reddit kid wearing work boots
>>9282738
These
Local brand too which is nice, they cost 20 euros though but they are so fucking good
Walking in flatheeled sneakers after wearing my boots with these on felt so fucking bad
>>9279884
Great boots when they age
>>9282677
post a fit then idiot
>>9281440
what the fuck is going on here
>>9282755
I don't have any fit pics in them, but if this thread is alive tomorrow when I'm heading out I may throw a pic up for you
The ones I have don't have the red wings logo on the side of the boot either which i prefer
>>9279884
lol i saw some faggot wearing these with raw denim and a polo shirt the other day. they looked like clown shoes
