Red Wing Shoes

^ Looking good Cris,
Hey Nooblet, how did the size work out for you on your GT's?
-
True to size

True to size
-
so your read wings fit fine even though you went true to size? really???
-
i find that hard to believe. red Wings are notoriously known to be a size big. but i suppose if the socks are that thick… still, something seems off to me.
-
Yeah honestly, they fit TTS I was actually suprised too thinking that I would be :-X. and had to return it =.=
But yeah also I just wear regular Nike High cut socks btw I waxed my GT's with SnoSeal -
Btw I'm still growing! So it's all good?

Normally people do what is called "postmans knot" but I've used what my grandpa called… "shoelace knot"
It's exactly this:I've never had any problems.

I bought a horsehair brush today does it work for cleaning dirt and grime etc?you have to go online and scour ebay for this super rare oil called hammerhead liquid. its made of hammerhead shark eyes that have been liquefied and mixed together with whale blubber and a rubber byproduct. when you get it, go to your nearest crafts store and buy the finest brush they have. put about a cup and a half into a glass that you dont mind ruining and put it into the microwave for exactly 34 seconds on high. when it stops, you have 4 minutes to brush the hammerhead liquid onto your shoes. it will give them the most amazing sheen and keep them completely waterproof. i do it about twice a year, but if you want to do it tri-yearly, go for it. when the coat is on them be sure to give the boots plenty of sunlight. got it? ok. …just kidding man, i'm teasing! lol. anyways, what i would do is use the obenaufs that giles sells (available online too) and whenever you finish wearing your boots and before you put them away, just dust them off with the horsehide brush. keeps the leather from getting all spotty from dirt and all whatnot. aside from that, i do condition them maybe twice or three times a year. forgot what the name of what i use is called, but whatevs. just wear them dude, its not like they cant take the abuse. how many contractors and foremen and building workers have time to polish off their workboots?
