@cameosis Amen to that! 

You know what's funny? The 8146 is actually the 8138! Yes! When I first got them, it had the traction tread sole- whe  it was time to replace them, and kind of as a store experiment, I had them put on the Beckman or roccia sole. I affectionately refer to them as my "Poor Man's Roughnecks"

That 8050 oxford/derby is a really good looking shoe. Nice score. I assume that's from the Euro/JP market, not available in USA? 

Thank you- and yes. I found it on Rakuten but it was very limited in size and 300+ US. I actually found one on Nordstrom Rack's website called the 8053 that looks very similar if you're trying to hunt it down =)

Been very sick the last couple days, so I guess I'll be contributing to SuFu instead of just my usual lurking. Ha. 

Every year (I think) Red Wing offers factory seconds to it's employees on a first-come, first-serve payroll deduction basis. Each pair is $75 (yes, all of them) plus $5 shipping. The neat thing is that you can get stuff that might actually not be available in your market, Euro, Japanese, etc. These are the two I grabbed: The 8271 steel toe engineer in oro-russet and the 8050 "oxford" (really more of a derby) in chocolate chrome. 

Also added a couple pics of my whole RW stable. 

Where is the best place in the US to ship my Samurai jeans off to get a small dick hole fixed?

 

I've only heard of Self Edge.

I would like to second Indigo Proof. It might seem a little pricey, but I promise it'll be worth it. Have a look at the Strike Gold thread to see my recent repairs.

Looking great Marcus

Thank you, Ruedi!

One thing I forgot - fit pic of SG5109 + Indigo Proof repairs (+ cat + Red Wing 9013 + Left Field work shirt)

Hello, again - just wanted to share a few pics of my heavyweight western flannel I picked up from SELA a few months back. As it's very warm in LA right now, I sadly do not have much use for it, but it was great when I was up in the mountains a couple weeks back, before the heatwave! 

Looking beautifully faded marcus!!!!

Praise from Caesar! Thanks, Ruedi! 

Hello, all- just wanted to introduce myself and share some pics of my SG5109 @ around 15 months and the repairs recently done by Rain at Indigo Proof.
