Thanks for the reply - they look pretty solid.

As luck would have it, I just had an offer accepted on some Red Wings so don't need the Chippewa now.

AKA beat to fuck.

The Red Wings were awesome boots, unlined, black, lugged Vibram sole, same shape as the Chippewa ^ but with a moc toe.
It’s a model they don’t seem to make any more.

I bought them in 1993, there were 2 places in London that sold them!
I was a protohipster

Got my first pair in 1993 as well, in London but can’t remember the shop !
Been wearing these today, I do like the little hiker on the back
