I miss Almostnice.........come back Markus
I am with you everyday, bro. Reading all related threads, but somehow don't feel the need to contribute because most questioned information is immediately delivered. To be honest, being the store manager of Red Wing Hamburg is limiting my hooligan behaviour over here down to zero, means all fun is gone
Whatever, give some credits to our lovely Ika, one of the sweetest forum people i met in real life!
And before you beat me to it, Gavin, one pic of me in my natural habitat

Had the pleasure to meet Andrew and Johan in Berlin a week ago

I don't own any pecos but i've tried the models we have in store on( 8188,8869,1178,8155 ) and i am a us 9,5 in them as in all my other pairs incl. the iron ranger.

sigh... it has something to do with the lighning. first pic is overexposed, second looks like direct sunlight. its not easy to catch the true colour. if you are still not sure you have to compare it with another pair.
Also: leather is a natural product and i have seen 9016's in all shades of cigar but never any coming even close to black cherry.

first pic looks like it could be black cherry, but second one is clearly cigar, at least on my monitor. gregor, you should stop caring too much about them, they are just a pair of boots.

for the lenght - your big toe must have a little room and shouldn't touch the front, that indicates that the size is too small. its ok if the width feels a little tight, it will stretch and mould to your foot. if they are comfortable when new you might end up with a pair that is too roomy after breaking them in.

i am a us 9,5 / 27,5 cm in all my rw's and just for you i tried to measure my feet. they are about 26,5 so i suggest the 27,5 cm are the inside lenght of the boot, which gives you one cm room in the toebox. so you might be a us 10,5.Anybody feel like holding the hand of a noob?
I'm about to make my first foray into the world of leather boots. Exciting! Thinking about Red Wing 9016's.
I read everywhere that you should size down on Red Wings, but does that hold true if you measure them based on the cm's of your feet? My feet are 27.5 cm's, so that should be a 42.5 - should I go 42? 41.5? I always wear thin socks and don't plan on adding an insole.
Also, I'm confused about treatment application. Mink oil seems to be a favourite, but should it be used when the boots are brand new, or once they are wearing in? I'm sure both options are used - what are the pro's and cons?
Thanks in advance!
don't use mink oil with the featherstone / beckman leather, it will make it greasy and dull ( unless you want that finish ). rw neutral shoecream or any other good quality careproduct for fine shoeleathers will do it.

electrorock put it straight on point. anyway, nothing wrong with pics taken in front of a mirror, some can look pretty good but a flashlight destroys it. and alexx, you sound like a twelve year old ( and lives a life like one, still enjoying the comforts at your dad's home ), about time to grow up and don't waste your time taking utterly stupid pics. i don't mind seeing similar fits in here, thats what this thread is about actually, but the composition of most posts is lacking big style lately. ever wondered why most of the older regulars hardly post anything?

congrats to both of you! that bag is really something else, i am wondering what makes them think that anybody will like them. also wondering why do they send out the shirt and tees in different sizes. maybe they thought of your girls?

aedressler, i highly doubt that f&e is running its own clothing factory where their shirts, vests, jackets, pants, hats, shoes, bags and other goods are made. i have no problem if you proof me wrong. as it looks like that you live in japan, you might can pay their presumably workshop a visit one day and post a review. but please use your own pics this time.

its common sense to work from the back to the front, but not for alexx. makes it even more fun to watch, even though my eyes are still bleeding.

Cheers. I must admit, selling good shoes is not the worst of all.
