How else do you show off your new winter boots at their best?

To hem, double roll, pin roll, cuff, stack?

I also wondered and need to know before I can emerge into spring (if it ever stops raining).

Not selvedge?
Not artisanal Japanese indigo denim?
Turn up length not a la mode?

Same here. My Red Wing moctoe boots are my true shoe size (i.e. work shoes) and wear them with thick, but not very thick, socks. Trainers are one size up on work shoes.

Perhaps a minority opinion, but I preferred the original colour. Did you want to darken and shine the leather?

Red Wing shoe cream with neats foot oil maintains colour without shine, although I...

You could try Premier Shoe Care in Lower Marsh by Waterloo.

Although not the same footwear, they did a great job resoling a pair of chunky rubber sole Paraboot Michael for me. They were...

Off topic, but I loved this Storyville.

Of no particular relevance, I bought a pair of Blundstones in Australia in 2001. Wore them regularly, then there was an interregnum when I didn't wear them for several years, pulled them out again as...

I've just slung a 25 -30 years old pair of Made in USA Timberland boots. Think I'm going to regret it, although I hadn't worn them for a while.

I think lines of enquiry should be "Vendramini" and Ebay in Italy, France, Germany rather than Redwing. The boots in C-B's post take their design cues from that very distinctive Italian style of...

Vintage Redwing?

Made me dig mine out, 30 years old, made in USA, genuine Casper wabi. Unworn for years, but for some reason can’t chuck them. Perhaps I’m saving them for DIY just in case I get around to doing some....

Not too bad for £80 in a sale.

Interested to find out - speaking to a chap in the Red Wing shop in London, people come in asking for well worn or vintage boots. They are selling some now.
