timberland pro are awesome boots for a great price...i just order directly from their website, they even offer a 30 day comfort guarantee

I have these. they are best to be bought at Marshalls. I bought mine there for $45. Brand new steel toe professional series.

lucky - i cant find 14s in hardly any stores, and if i do, its never a steel toe version...i have to order from them online

i have two pairs, one is the power welt series (waterproof - for doing sewers and such) and one is the endurance hiker steel toe (everguard leather double toe - so i can kick your guys shit at UPS and not ruin my boots :D)....they cost 120-130 each, wish i could have found them for 45 lol....even the pit boss basic boot is like 90 at meijers...i wish i wore a size 12, then i could find more boots in stores instead of shopping online lol

never owned a more comfortable (or durable) boot than these...i bought some redwings but didnt give them a very good shot...wore them around the house for a day and then returned them, just didnt like how they felt

I use redwing steel toes (store only). You can also check on line (othr brands)with msc or grainger. Grainger can give 15% off if you ask and msc has a 35% off sale one a month always during the week...check on black Friday.

What you've got to watch with Red Wing boots is that you're buying the REAL, made in the US boots.

Also, you cannot buy REAL US MADE Red Wing boots online.

If you find a location that does sell them, they're doing against Red Wing policy.

I've had these for almost 5 yrs. One of the best boots you'll ever wear.

These I looked at...but they're just not the same...

the pair i picked up was from the redwing store in reynoldsburg ....like i said, i didnt give them a fair shot so i cant say too much about them, my initial impression though was that they just didnt feel right...i wouldnt be opposed to trying a pair out, but they would have to be given to me or something as a "demo" lol...i find the timberland pro series to be more comfortable

the thing i do like about redwings though is that you can send them back to get resoled when they wear out...a good quality boot is going to outlast the sole, so having the option to resole instead of buying new boots is nice

and are you sure you cant buy redwings online?

theres a lot of big name stores in that list, nordstrom, bloomingdales, urban outfitters, etc...i wouldnt think they would all try to break policy

i dont know that for sure, just surprised to see your post, ive never heard of that

Rockys suck since they went out of the country. I've been wearing Red Wings for about 10 years and wouldnt wear anything else. Get a pair with Vibram soles. They last way longer than any other soles on any boots I've seen, and they dont melt in fires.

edit: apparently, if you want Red Wings with Vibram soles these days, you are limited to loggers.

Anyone know anything about Chippewa boots?

Im kinda digging these:

These are dirt cheap and Vibram soled. Anyone heard of Bierker?
