VERY Lightly used Pair of Iron Rangers Black style 8114 size 9 D MSRP 314.99
STYLE NO. 8114 : Iron Ranger
The 8114 is a rugged 6-Inch boot, featuring premium Black Harness leather, chrome hardware, speed hooks, Goodyear welt construction and triple stitched quality. Its double layer leather toe cap, leather heel pocket and Nitrile Cork outsole make it a favorite
THE HISTORY BEHIND THE STYLE
The local residents of the Mesabi Iron Range in northern Minnesota are proudly known as Iron Rangers due to their rugged toughness. The Iron Ranger work boots were built for iron miners in this region who required a double layer of leather over the toe for extra safety. It’s tough and elegant all at once.
Leather: Black Harness Leather
Outsole: Nitrile Cork
Insole: Leather
Hardware: Nickel Eyelets and Hooks
Construction: Goodyear Welt
Last: 8
Laces: 48-inch Black Taslan Lace
I had my shoe cobbler remove all the speed hooks and place traditional style eyelets. I also had him dye the nitrile sole and stitching black to give the boot an all black stealth appearance. Also added waxed laces. These were only worn a few times. I treated them with Obernaufs to soften and protect the leather. These will ship in an original Red Wing box.
