And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Red Wing makes, I think, 3 types of this boot: Chinese materials and manufacturer; American materials and China Manufacturer, American matrerials and manufacturers
thorogood boots are good. make moc toe and plain types. worn them since another manufacturer stopped making the wedge sole boots perviously worn. Going on 6 years as a customer.
Throgood used to make some really good boots, but they also quit making man sizes. God forbid you need something larger than 13. Good luck finding a decent size 16D anywhere. PJ aka the pope
You've gotta roast them long and low to get that beautiful bark. The fat along the lower edge is perfect. And up top you can see it is just falling apart.
Nice ghost pepper hot sauce and a bottle of Chemin d'Fers That's a meal you don't forget!!
Had a pair many, many years ago, wish I still had them. Flat sole is needed when you're digging holes and dealing with mud (irrigation). Lugged soles pick up all that crap, flat ones don't (well, not as much)
These are the kind of boots my mom called clod hoppers. I had a pair way back when. Wonder who makes them and where to get them.
ReplyDeleteRed Wing still makes them. They cost dear, but last a very very long time. And Red Wing offers a very wide range of sizes and widths. They will fit.
DeleteIn the third and fourth grade my parents made me wear them to church,
DeleteAh, Red Wing. Pricy but likely worth it.

DeleteThey're all broken in, hate 'em when they're new and stiff.
ReplyDeleteI think Danner makes a boot similar to this. Sudsy in NC

My experience is that Thorogood boots are very good and worth more than what you pay for them. Really like the roofing boots

ReplyDeleteIt's a common mistake for shade tree mechanics, but this is not what the manual is talking about when they refer to "wheel boots".
