FAQs

How do I break in my Red Wing Iron Ranger boots?

Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the wear time. Use leather conditioner to soften the leather and make them more pliable.

How often should I condition my boots?

Condition your boots every few months, or when the leather starts to look dry.

Can I wear these boots in the rain?

Yes, but apply a leather protector spray to guard against water damage. Allow them to dry naturally if they get wet.

How do I clean my Red Wing Iron Ranger boots?

Wipe off dirt and debris with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Are the boots resoleable?

Yes, the Goodyear welt construction allows for resoling, extending the life of the boots.

What kind of socks should I wear with these boots?

Wear thicker socks, such as wool or work socks, for added comfort and to help absorb moisture.

What is the best way to store my boots?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Use boot trees to help them keep their shape.

Troubleshooting

Break them in gradually. Wear them for short periods at first, and use leather conditioners to soften the leather.

Leather is cracking.

Apply leather conditioner regularly to prevent the leather from drying out. Avoid exposing the boots to extreme heat.
