After researching for a few weeks, since I am a college student and jeans and a shirt are typical for me, I decided a casual dress boot would be the best footwear for me. I saw and loved Red Wing's Iron Ranger 8111:
.
I just ordered a pair and it will get here in a week or two. In the mean time, I want to know if anyone has any tips for pre-treatment to help with the longevity of the shoe. Like I said, I am a college student and my campus is very large so I am doing a lot of walking every day. Also, it rains somewhat frequently and the sidewalks here don't have the best drainage, so I suppose water damage would be of concern.
I searched and found that many had success with Obenauf's Heavy Duty LP so I ordered an 8 oz. supply. Is there anything else or any other information that would be useful? Does anyone know if these shoes are comfortable to walk long distances in or should I get some sort of additional insert to make it more comfortable?
Thanks! I really enjoy reading and browsing this forum.
