Ok, I am waiting for my pair to be delivered from Simon. Let's see what happens. I ordered 7.5, which is similar to most leather shoes that I own. Will keep you lads updated.
Please do, I'm interested to know if this is a boot fault or just a foot thing!Ok, I am waiting for my pair to be delivered from Simon. Let's see what happens. I ordered 7.5, which is similar to most leather shoes that I own. Will keep you lads updated.
STYLE NO. 9216 : FOREMAN CHUKKA
A new pair of Red Wing Heritage boots should fit comfortably tight on your foot, with enough room to freely wiggle your toes. Over time the full grain leather upper, leather footboard and cork midsole mold to your feet, creating an enduring and customized fit over time with each wear.
@Sloan1874, are your boots too short, or are your feet simply sliding down and crunching your toes? Can you feel the presence of arch support? If not, I wonder if there might be a problem with the design of the last?For the record, I'm in the same position with my Engineers and the 'feel too big and too small at the same time' issue.
I've sent the boots back to him to send back to the factory. I don't know what the next step will be. Let's see if they can correct them. If not, I'll ask for a refund or I'll sell them on. Yourself? @Sloan1874
They go back tomorrow. I'm still mulling my options, though i'm very unhappy about this. My impression is that this is a manufacturing issue, so I'm not convinced it can be fixed easily.
