how long u all wear before u all start using the oil, polish n all?
There are 2 school of thoughts on this:

Oil before wear
Wear before oil


Tried both and i have to say not much difference and i personally like to protect the leather before wear and it helps to soften a new pair of boots too. :)

Help! I can't really decide whether to buy either 3140D CLASSIC WORK CHUKKA ORO-IGINAL or 3145D WORK CHUKKA BURNT ORANGE. Kindly recommend which is more chio looking :)

Colour also need people to recommend? Its so personal. Ask ppl for recommendation for the model style and I can understand but colour? I might like white, he like black then u choose based on what we like? Or what?

With that said, I'd choose classic original if you belong to people who dress normally and belong to the safe type. Choose burnt orange if u are those who likes to stand out from the crowd.

Hi guys,
Safe to get red wing from cultizm? I realize that the shoes doesn't specify the width e.g. E or D. Can I assume that it comes in D?

Beside the model number, it will state the width. If you are unsure about your width size, I suggest you to go down suntec rw shop and let them measure for you.

You ordered a pair of boots without doing any research on taking care of it? lol

Hi Studded,
I wear size 7D. I realized that the all red wing model number listed on cultizm website ends off with a D. I assumed that the width is size D then. Thanks.
