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.

Good boot

I bought this boot a month ago. The break-in period is a bit tough but once they are broken in, they're a great shoe. I did have to stretch one of the shoes with wise as I ordered one size smaller than normal. Other than that I do recommend them. The price is a little steep, but you do get what you pay for

8084 and 8085

After my initial purchase and satisfaction of my first venture into Red Wings, the Beckman, thought I'd venture out and look into the other Red Wing offerings. Had read many articles about the "iconic" Iron Rangers, so my next purchase were the 8085 CRT's. The color just looks like it can be an everyday boot and can go with anything. Although not as elegant as the Beckman, these are a high quality, sturdy, good looking every day boot. I'm sure they will last me for the rest of my life. They took a little bit of time to break in but not as bad as other reviews I read. Never had any blisters, not hot spots. Initially my feet would be sore and tired because of the weight of the boot and the stiffness of the leather and soles. After a few days, the insole started molding to my foot and I became accustomed to the weight of the shoe. Now, I can wear them all day without any soreness or fatigue. They have become my everyday footwear replacing sneakers. I take my dog for long walks a few times a day in the park and trails. I walk anywhere from 9,000 to 16,000 steps per day and my feet feel great at the end of the day. I recently purchased the black 8084 and alternate between the two. I'm a fan. Love these boots.

Awesome boot.. just had to put my twist on them.

Love this iconic boot but the sole was not what I was looking for. Swapped the mini lugs for a full vibram lug. Now this is how the boot should come!! Or atleast have an option.. I get compliments all the time. Great overall boot.

Excellent!

I've been wearing these boots about 4 to 6 times a week for 2 to 14 hours at a time for the past year and a half, and I couldn't be happier with them! Breaking them in was a breeze, and comfort is exceptional. I've been wearing boots for a living for the past 25 years and can tell when a pair is made with quality in mind. I wouldn't recommend them for the battlefield or the job site, but if you want a good looking comfortable boot for just about anything else, buy yourself a pair of these!

very slippery

Have had my IR's with Vibram lug soles for a few years. Unfortunately, I'm always in fear of slipping and sliding. Bugs me that I need to walk so cautiously in order to be safe. Have had this problem when they were new, and also after wearing them in. I don't understand why RW made these with such beautiful leather and craftsmanship ... but then they neglected basic safety by installing a unworkable sole. I'm disappointed that I cannot use them for work and some other activities as I had originally planned. I spent a good amount for them and now they mostly sit in the closet instead of being used regularly as I had hoped.

Best boot ever

Waited way too long to get a pair of these. The reviews about the break-in are accurate, but once they're broken in you'll never want to wear anything else.

Different tongue

This is my 5th pair of Iron Rangers and for the first time, the tongues are significantly different from each other! One has the normal thick material while the other one has a softer, thinner leather. A quick Internet search of this is normal and apparently it is according to a Reddit forum. Weird thing is the other people that encountered this also got theirs from Back Country - Coincidence? I’m still keeping since it’s a good deal and I think it’s legit.

Iron Ranger 8111 Amber Harness Leather

I purchased these about a week ago and honestly I couldn’t be happier. They’ve quickly become my favorite pair of boots. I’m still in break in process but they are already very comfortable. To be fair, I’m using a very thin pair of insoles during break in as I have really sensitive feet and I’m prone to calluses but even without them there boots are comfortable. My furthest walk thus far in them has been two miles and it was pain free. I have them in 10.5 EE and they fit like a glove. No heel slip out movement of any kind. I would definitely buy these again in a heart beat. I had been eyeing these for a while but held back because so many people report horror stories about the break in. Happily that has not been the case for me. I’ve got other boots that are more expensive and they just aren’t nearly as comfortable. One more thing… The QC is excellent. Not a stitch out of place. Can’t recommend them highly enough.

Great boot bad sole

Had these boots for about 4 months I wear them every day and they are the most comfortable boots but the sole is a very big issue for me the stitching came undone around mthe end of month 3 and it’s very disappointing because they are my everyday boot for everything since I wear them about 16 hours a day.
