My ALDO redwing knockoffs are coming apart. Already had them resoled once which cost the same as the original purchase price. Love the fit, especially the lining. I have slim but long feet, anytime I’ve tried on unlined Redwings or DMs etc there’s just no way I’d get on with them.
These are worn with thick merino socks in winter to commute and a bit of site work, and the weekend, pretty much all winter tbh.
Where should I be looking for replacements? Ordered some mock toe Danners as they were cheap and there’s free returns so why not. I don’t mind spending a chunk as I appreciate well made things and they’ll get worn so much. Waterproof would be nice, but far from necessary.
