32 of 36 people found the following review helpful Nice boot, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Chippewa Men's 6" Rugged Handcrafted Lace-Up Boot (Apparel) I meant to buy another pair of my favorite Carolina boots only to discover that model is no longer being made. The Carolina boot that replaced it is now made in China. I have nothing against products made in other countries per se, however, I have been very disappointed in the sizing of almost every pair of shoes/boots I have ever bought that was made in China. I wear a US size 11EE as measured numerous times over the years in numerous shoe stores. Unfortunately, this often translated into Chinese-made shoes and boots in sizes up to 12 EEEEE (one brand of well-known boots I tried in size 13 EW was too small for my size 11 foot).After discovering the Carolina boots were no longer available, I intended to go by the Red Wing store but looked at their prices and backed off. Red Wings are good shoes but Red Wing really likes them a lot. It was time to try something different. I was happy to find out that Chippewa still makes their products in the USA and continues to...

Might as well be made in China., By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Chippewa Men's 6" Rugged Handcrafted Lace-Up Boot (Apparel) I'll keep this short and sweet.These were great boots, for just over a month. With normal, occasional wear, the Vibram sole split at the toe and began pulling free of the welt. These boots were worn under normal, casual conditions. The same conditions under which pairs of dress shoes have survived for well over two years. They're not exactly what I would classify as "rugged", as the description claims. I contacted Chippewa when I noticed the issue with the sole. They replied with the boilerplate response, "While we stand proudly behind our products we are not responsible for damages due to customer abuse or neglect and cannot guarantee any boot that has been repaired or altered. We do not warrant soles against wear." That's great, and totally understandable. But if they would have accepted the boots back for inspection, or at least asked for a picture of the issue, they would have clearly seen that this was a defect in the manufacturing process... Read more 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful Incredible boot and value, if you get through the break in, By This review is from: Chippewa Men's 6" Rugged Handcrafted Lace-Up Boot (Apparel) I had purchased this as the rebranded version through LL Bean.The only difference is the branding (Katadhin Iron Works Engineer), the lifetime satisfaction guarantee, and the LL Bean version also has a toe cap. Unless you are sold on the toe cap (as I was) it is a better price here on Amazon. The leather is top notch. A thicker cut is used unlike many boots on the market, with double and triple stitching on most seams. With the oiled leather it is not neccesary to use any additional protectors, but most people will tell you it is a good idea. I had applied a layer of Mink Oil first, allowed this to dry and applied Obenauf's HD Leather Protector. SnoSeal will do nearly as well as the Obenaufs at a cheaper price. All of this darkens the leather, but my preference is a deep brown anyway. By doing so not only did it soften the leather to make the break in easier, but the water just rolls off, and any dirt is easily wiped away... Read more |
