I got my iron rangers a couple years ago and they’re fantastic. I think red wing was juuuust starting to fuck around with quality at that time, but I think it was on other models.
The break in period on the red wings is legit though. I could only handle them for a couple hours at a time in the beginning. I would bring another pair of shoes with me to work to change into when the boots got too painful.
I’ve been thinking about buying some for ten years, guess I should have already
Not sure the Red wings are the same quality anymore.
Solovair are high quality. Blundstone is excellent as well.
Redbacks are better cheaper blundstones, also made in Australia.

After a couple weeks though, so so nice.
