    Oak Street Bootmakers

    Thinking about pulling the trigger on a pair of Trench Boots. If I wear a US 10 in Redwing Iron Rangers, which size should I get for the OSB Trench Boot? Any advice greatly appreciated!

    Red Wing Boots - Your Opinion

    @JosephD: If possible, wear each pair around your house for a day or two. Then you will see which pair is more comfortable. Pay special attention towards the end of the day, as this is when your feet are at their biggest and the smaller size might be too small. Good point about the insole: put...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

     Thanks for the input, very interesting. I'd still love to see a load-out of the medium duffel, but I'm starting to think that I'll get a suitcase after all. As much as I like the look of traveling with a duffel bag, I fear I simply pack to much to enjoy the trip...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    It's an old request, but I think so far noone replied to it: could someone snap a picture of the medium and small duffel with all the clothes you fit into it and a pic of the loaded bag, please?

    Can anyone identify this bag?

    Hi, I stumbled across this picture on pinterest an really liked the look of the bag. Does anyone know, which brand it is, by any chance? Thanks in advance!

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    Considering what I've read here about the Filson quality being on the demise, I wondered if I don't want my future bag (= duffel bag) to have some metal studs on the bottom. I don't think it's a good idea to put the duffel down on wet surfaces, or am I wrong here?

    Red Wing Boots - Your Opinion

    So, after about 5 weeks of using the original RW leather shoe laces, the first one broke yesterday. And there were days in between, when I didn't even wear the boots. So I'm not very impressed with the quality of the laces ATM. Will try others, to see if they last longer than the originals...

    Thanks for the info! Very good to know for future purchases. Right now, I'm still in this phase of being a RW-owner: But it's getting better. :nodding:

    Red Wing Boots - Your Opinion

     Thanks, this is one of the most interesting pics of wear on the Muleskinners I have ever seen. Did you treat them with anything, or is this just the normal patina? The look similar to my M43 Roughouts after treating them with Snoseal.

    Red Wing Boots - Your Opinion

     Yes. Agree, the leather laces are much nicer!

    Red Wing Boots - Your Opinion

    Update after just over three weeks of wear and one coat of RW boot oil: The right boot was super comfortable after about a week, the left one still hurts and causes bruises in the area where the stitching comes together next to the lowest hole of the laces.

    Red Wing Boots - Your Opinion

    Okay, so "patina" is one thing to aim for in boots. But is it possible to keep Redwing's Hawethorne Muleskinner leather looking "clean", even after a lot of use? I really like the look they have fresh out of the box, that's why I'm asking...

    Might be, but the zipper keeps unwanted hands out of the bag and you're able to fit a laptop-computer into it. AFAIK the opening of the field bag is too small for that.

    Red Wing Boots - Your Opinion

     That wasn't meant to be rude, but a clarification. Thank you, this is the kind of answer I had been looking for. It's finally something to work with, as most other answers you can find on the web only deal with traction in snow and ice.

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    Did they get rid of the small carry on? I thought that was the superior bag to the medium field bag they still have, as it comes with a zipper for added protection!

    Red Wing Boots - Your Opinion

     I didn't ask about color options. I've got some resoled harness boots with a leather section in the middle and they have been fine for the past 10 years, even in the wettest and muddiest of weather conditions. No rot or anything, if taken care of properly. Any input on traction of the...

    Red Wing Boots - Your Opinion

    I'm considering getting some RWs as my next boot, but I'm not sure which is best for my needs. Thinking about either the Blacksmith or the Beckman. What I'm not sure about is the sole: I'll be wearing the boots mostly around town, but also quite frequently on gravel, sandy paths, grass and muddy...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    Hi, a big request to the Filson Medium Duffle and Pullman-owners: could you take a picture of all the clothes and stuff you are able to pack into the bags and post it here? A kind of packing list would be great, too, just to get a better idea of how many days worth of clothes fit into the bags...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

     Thanks for the answers, yes, taking off the shoulder strap seems to be a sound thing to do... Still not 100% convinced, but will have a go at the Filsons...
