Why We Like The Iron Ranger 6in Boot
The Iron Ranger Boots have been protecting the feet of miners for more than a century, so we feel good about them protecting ours, too. Oil-tanned leather comprises the upper for added protection, while the leather insole conforms to our foot's natural shape to become more comfortable over time. A steel shank increases both stability and support for long stretches on our feet, and Vibram's 430 mini-lug sole won't crack and lose durability after a few years like all-rubber soles sometimes do.

Speed hooks.
More of the same; great boots but the speed hooks have been destroying the tongue. Less than 6 months old and almost chewed through the entire tongue already. Clearly a manufacturing and / or QA/QC issue. Although with these many reviews talking about the speed hooks, I’d say it’s the former. Hopefully they fix this glaring issue to an incredibly comfortable and American made boot. Not sure what I’ll do yet. It’s really just a bummer.

Iron Ranger
I just picked up today a pair of Iron Rangers. I have owned 7 other pairs of either Red Wing or Irish Setter boots over the past 30 years. I have them all still except one. Broke my ankle years ago and the boot never felt right again. Pressed against bolts holding ankle together. On the other hand I still wear my very first pair at times. I bought the Iron Ranger because I am starting a new job in a couple weeks. All my others have been beat up over the years and I needed something new. Arrived earlier than expected. Gives me a chance to start breaking them in. Hospital ER setting. Wouldn't trust any other brand.

Best boots I've ever had
I've had these boots for over 4 years now, wearing at least half of those days. I have worked construction in them, backpacked, rode motorcycles, and much more. They are very comfortable, and show no signs of wearing out. I clean and condition them every couple of months, but that's been all. Original soles are still going strong. Highly reccomended these boots. And they look great!

Solid boots. Stains too easy
These iron ranger boots are sturdy and have withstood every element. The only thing that would keep me from giving them a 5 is that they stain way too easily. I had a couple drops of beer spill onto them and still haven't been able to fully get the stains out.

Second pair, both duds
Already wrote a review but forgot to mention the soles aren’t even centered. Extremely thin leather on the right boots causing instant creasing. Trash.

Good, high quality, American boot but.....
These boots are absolutely beautiful and well made. Of course them being made by Americans in American shops is the cherry on top and a key reason that I bought them. However, one downside is the speed hooks. Something didn't quite line up on these and some of the hooks freely turn and are cutting the tongue. I will have to follow up for repair but these are an otherwise amazing boot that I hope will last a long time.

huge fan of Red Wing Boots
The first Red Wing Boots I bought was the 4418 in 2014. They felt great and extremely comfortable for steal toes. after I bought 2 pairs of Iron rangers and Ice Cutters and oxfords. The black iron rangers I bought in 2015 are my daily walkers finally need to get resoled. The oxblood iron rangers are equally as great in comfort, I just wear the black ones more. The ice cutters I wear when I snowblower or when I'm walking around in a blizzard and the oxfords when I have to wear a suit. great product.

Suprisingly durable
A great quality boot. The surprising part of the copper boots was how easy it was to rub away scratches using your fingers/cloth and the mink oil which is a must. Was quick to break in after daily use. I would recommend getting properly fitted with the 3D scanner and try using the leather insoles. The soles are pretty tough and grip enough for most surfaces. It is a harder sole, unlike softer rubbers, these will tend to slip on polished concrete. These had decent traction in snow. The laces are rough, so it holds well without double knotting. Some minor wear/fraying in particular locations. The length works well for me at size 6.5. The back of the quick hooks are are scratching tongue, which was remedied by using felt tape. After using mink oil it'll turn a much dark brown, which is very nice. Loving the boots so far after daily use over 4 months.

so glad i waited
these were my first pair of iron rangers and i know that a correctly fitted pair of boots can become beloved pieces of gear that are not forgotten soon. i bought another redwing pair sometime ago off the internet and after disregarding many warnings i bought my usual size of 12 and found that those warnings were justified, the boots were to big. i kept the boots, put in some heel inserts and was happy but, i wanted that glove like fit i got from basic training so after deciding on the 8085’s copper rough and tough i went to our redwing store and had the salesman measure my foot and was rather surprised that he could fit me in a 10.5, a full size and a half down. i got the boots and the break in period tested my patience with holding it together but hold it together i did and im paid off with a pair of boots that are complimented on their great looks every time i wear them out as i enjoy the comfort i knew would come from these iconic pieces of americana.1
