What's the best boots for men? Looking for a pair I can keep forever and have repaired as needed.

My redwing iron rangers have been working for 10 years with no problems.

Bought them like 12 years ago, no regrets

I've been thinking about buying some for ten years, guess I should have already

Not sure the Red wings are the same quality anymore.

Solovair are high quality. Blundstone is excellent as well.

Redbacks are better cheaper blundstones, also made in Australia.

I got my iron rangers a couple years ago and they're fantastic. I think red wing was juuuust starting to fuck around with quality at that time, but I think it was on other models.

The break in period on the red wings is legit though. I could only handle them for a couple hours at a time in the beginning. I would bring another pair of shoes with me to work to change into when the boots got too painful.

After a couple weeks though, so so nice.
