RRL slim 29x30, 2 months solid wear, honeycomb developed but not much fading yet.....brought it for $20

sweet coat rirawin! how does the sizing run?

rirawin: that look very good on you

chicken:

with the double leather sole and the cat's paw

you have a triple sole now....it is extremely thick:)

dont know it is very heavy or not?

here are my Snipe shoe (leather interior and exterior)....one of my favorite pair ....because is free...anyway...i have them since middle school...about 8 to 9 years.

preshine

after clean with saddle soap ( the saddle soap is so strong that it removes alot of the previous shoe cream )

post shine

tomtom:

is it similar to wrangler? look pretty tough..

post some with it on...

that fh wax didn't darken it at all... i may not have used enough... oh well.

my obenauf's LP arrive two weeks ago and i used it that same day. it darkened a tad bit. i tanned it for a few hours. didn't re-apply the obenauf's though.

am i doing this right?

while rubbing, the obenauf's LP, i accidentally got some inside, so i just rubbed the interior, too. it darkened slightly:

is there any way to prevent the edges from separating like that?

my redmoon separate like that too....so i rub beeswax on the edges and it helps alot:)

bill:

those are very very nice, looking forward for more pics:)

Also, my 5 years redwing 8130 and a pair of 7 years timberland

datasupa: very nice...you must wear much more than i do, the color look much darker at the tip, here is how mine look....still like new..will wear more in the winter

Hey Fattybfat, remember you got a pair of Stows (or was it Maltons?) in Acorn Antique? Any evolution on those? Might be all the motivation i need to get a pair!

ya...only worn them like once a week...maybe will wear them more in winter...those are stow

and i can post some pics later on...just give them a shine..

here is an update for my redwing 2143, just give it a little shine with meltonian ...wear them regularly almost at least 4 times a week...i think is about 2 years or 3 years...

RRL slim

Levi's redloop

wrangler

dick

anything that i can hook to my RM wallet

but not a silver chain...leather only..

how do you guys pronounce...Uniqlo?

i have heard different version of it....

ex..uni q lo... , uni koo

kang kong

it is attached to the braid...not anything that can add to it...

at least for my RM and edmond's RM...it has the tassal attach...which i dont like it...hanging around...

so ..anyone know...braid without tassal??

does anyone know where can i get a leather braid without the tassal?

i check the LGC site but there is no pic or price on it

leather sole are much more comfortable imo as it is lighter weight...

crepe sole are much heavier but it is more durable

btw, conditioner i used lexol and cleaner i just use kiwi saddle soap

i think your 1910 will look bad ass after you shine em

edmond...

i used meltonian or red wing shoe cream in neutral

shoe paste is faster to get the shine but dry out fast also

brother bought this key holder...and i will see how it age...

i remember redmoon has a similar one too....

i might as well make myself one...

brother just got back from hk and bought this redwing for himself...

pre- shine

post-shine

5'7

132 lbs

HEWS:

i use saddle soap to try to get the water or salt stain out...it works after you done if for 4 or 5 times....but dont rub it too hard otherwise it will discolorize it...

datasupa:

nice, this is my first time see the stow in 1001, it is much lighter than the acorn...the sole has much darker color than the leather...which is very different than the acorn antique

indifferent:

i have the leather sole and i can tell you now that it wear out very fast. I have 2 heel plates put on the toe yesterday. The danite sole should give you much longer wear. I choose the leather sole because they are availabe in fitting 5, the commando/dainite sole are fitting 6...i believe...anyway...do you know the difference between the malton and stow??

BTW, retricker1829 has just listed some stow and other on ebay..

is the brand redwing too? yeah i saw one its like a 3 piece kit the leather cleaner.. the conditioner and the mink oil is that what you mean?

no...lexol is not the same brand as red wing...

i bought the lexol in the red wing store only...

condtitioner and mink oil are different too

conditioner is the one that preserve the leather

mink oil waterproof the leather only

ohhh where do you get those lexol conditioners? i will post pics man thanks!

i bought mine in redwing shoe store...

are you in hk? i dont know where you can find it there..
