thanks
i saw it at amazon, 20+ but i am not sure what size should i get...

using 11D for blacksmith and 10EE for 8175.

Not sure if i want to get L or XL...
there's a lot of review of the sizing not true to size, plus the width of my shoes are wider...

what you guys reckon?

i think this boils down to personal preference. for iron rangers i guess u can afford to do that but still i would not want to give myself that extra height in case it feels odd when i walk. also, no matter how cheap it is to do it, i reckon it doesnt serve me a purpose since i can simply resole an iron ranger whenever it wears off. i think the shukey at far east plaza is the official resoler for rw here.

definitely cant do that for the moc toes like my 1907 since it uses a vibram sole.

Since when Shukey can resole iron ranger? I only know they do the normal white sole for RW...

They resole the Iron Ranger with that type of sole? I am interested, as I always have the idea, other than the white sole, the rest would cost a bomb to resole, as you would need to send over the US to resole. The cost of resole is $230!!! I can like get another new pair plus topup another $100...

u buy from online will have sales. just need to keep checking frequently.

its not cheaper now cos USD very strong. but when i bought mine online, there was a sale + USD was weaker. total cost inclusive of shipping for my rw was USD 205 :s13:

u just need to be a bit more savvy shopper and patient to get what u want :s22:

I owned the 8100. Got it from a Japanese Online Store cheaper by 100 over bucks.

But with high USD, plus no more free direct shipping for Redwing to SG ... Amazon deal still good?

U would need to do your own calculations to determine that

Or try sourcing from Canadian websites? The Canadian dollar is super weak against the sgd right now
