Great video, I had the same issue with my Redback boots. The heal and ankle were tight and cutting - but that was only for the first day of wearing it, then it broke in and I never had that issue again, even with the same sock. Great boots, fit and feel fantastic after the break in period. Oddly enough I bought a pair of the blue tab's that Redback also makes, they didn't have as much of a break-in period - they fit nearly perfect right away. One thing to note, is that Rose Anvil always states in his videos that he has very narrow/thin ankles - so the shoe opening and elastic of a Chelsea are going to make a huge difference on the fit of the upper part of the boot.
Mine last me 1-3 years and I wear them about 350 days of the year or more. They actually wore out quickest when I was working in a deli doing nighttime deep clean. Concentrated sodium hypochlorite destroys pretty much everything. When I started working in minning and metal fabrication they lasted a lot longer before starting to fall apart. They are super comfortable. I'd work 80+ hour weeks on my feet between 2 jobs and they'd still be my first choice of shoe on the weekend, going for a walk, hiking, camping, even going overseas. I have "casual" shoes for when workboots aren't socially acceptable. Hell I even wore a brand new pair to my wedding and my wife wore white cowgirl boots because she always wanted to lol. They are not great in snow or ice but being Australian and not from Tasmania I've only seen snow about a dozen times in my life and that's a dozen times more than many of my friends.
At my shop(mechanic), 6-7 of us have redback boots. The back of your ankle rubbing is the first I’ve heard of. That’s interesting. For myself, the boot puts a lot of pressure on my instep. I’ve needed to use thinner socks or a thinner insole. Overall, they’re really good. I’ve had mine for 2yrs and I’ve still haven’t worn out the back outer heel. I’ve had Red Wings that have lasted less than my Redbacks.
First of all, I appreciate the balanced nature of this review, and how well he discussed issues he had with his Redbacks. I bought my Redbacks and found from get-go they were the most comfortable boot I have ever worn. After three years of regular wear, I have no complaints and amazingly little sign of wear compared to previous experience with Blundstones. My next pair of Chelsea boots will be Redbacks for sure.
I have had 4 pairs of RBs that I have worked in 10/10 recommend. I have a tan pair and black pair now I like to have choices! I’ve never had an issue with break in, no fatigue nothing bad at all. Let me tell ya I had redwing wedge boots which I liked but my knees paid a price and it went into my lower back picked up my first pair of RBs and it changed everything 8 years of a happy customer and I’ll continue buying. I wear a size 11 so I got a aus 10 fit is perfect!!! And one more thing everyone has ariats,redwings,thorgoods, timbs in my area and never see another pair unless I’m in a shop setting
I think they are great boots. Really well made. It is nice you fit into the group that they were perfect on first hop! There seems to be a small subset of us that just take a little longer to break the boots (or our tolerance) in for comfort. I would buy them again.
@@me20093Fussy? No. His experience was different than that of many people. I thought he did a fair job of describing it, and still found the boots praiseworthy.
As an Australian, the price the US and Canada pay for these boots is a bit much. I can get most models of Redback and Blundstone chelsea work boots for around $130 AUD. I've actually moved away from the chelsea boot at work, Blundstone 997 is way more work friendly.
The leather on these boots are approximately 3mm, thicker than others, which I assume is a good thing making them more durable long term. The leather in others reviewed on the "Rose Anvil" channel are 2mm thick (Blundstone, etc). Just received my pair and they seem really stiff causing me to search CZcams for other's opinions. Given this, I'm expecting a long break-in period. I have some discomfort at the top collar area as well, but not a concern at this point. They seem to have heavy, solid construction which is what sold me on this brand and given Anvil's review. Thanks for posting.
I had the same issue with break in, back of the ankle was bad for a few days. Apart from that they’ve been good boots, plenty comfortable but nothing special like some claim. They’ve lasted longer than my regular redwings, which is about 6 months. These have gone a little longer. I use boots for work and lots of walking on concrete. Wear them 60+ hours a week, easily. I’ve put some SnoSeal on them and they’ve been surprisingly well waterproof. I will say the insole sucks, I destroyed it in no time and bought the redback leather insole and it’s been fine. IMO it should come in the boot, that sucker is pricey. I probably want buy any more, I like some ankle support and obviously you don’t get that without a lace up boot.
Wow - I bought a pair for equivalent of $130 (US dollars) in the UK. Most stuff is usually more expensive here than in N America, so that was a surprise. I had exactly the same issue as you with the heal rubbing. Still breaking them in........
I bought the Blundstone safety boots, and they were very painful to wear for quite a while. Not sure that I would recommend them. I also have a non-safety pair of the Redbacks, and I had no issues with them. Maybe they would have a break in period if they were safety boots. They are obviously a bit of a stiff encasing boot, but all these types of boots are that way. But....not rewarding Blundstone and the Chinese with your money is a good move.
Huh. I had no break-in issues with my Great Barriers. I do have a few minor complaints though. The outsole is kind of ugly, compared to Blundstone. If I wear regular cotton tube socks, they slip off my feet when I walk in these. No idea why. Thicker wool socks don't present this problem. Otherwise, I think they are better than Blundstone, especially in comfort and leather quality. Just maybe not for fashion.
Have the steel toe/toe cap versions of these and the same type of bluestones. I prefer these if standing on steel all day. Bluestones kinda fit loose even with thick wool socks. Just depends on what you want, never had the heel rub problems.
I love my red backs. They are like wearing sneakers. I wish the insole was leather though so they would conform to your foot better. Absolutely NO break in what so ever, great right out of the box. Leather is soft and supple, pretty thin actually. Not like a nick’s or whites or JK’s.
These stand out more than blundstones and the sole looks ugly in comparison. No doubt that these will likely last longer than blundstones but the blundstones should be more comfortable and look sleeker. The warranty on blundstone is amazing from what i heard, so if your soles ever crumble then theyll likely ask you to destroy your pair and get a replacement.
Interesting point, you mentioned that you wear 5.11 boots as well and the Redbacks were tricky to break in - could this be down to foot shape? Only asking because I cannot wear 5.11 boots, I find them too narrow and to get a pair that are wide enough I have to get a larger size than normal, even with wide fittings. I have the same problem with Timberlands and Salomon but have never had any issues with Redbacks (I have four pairs, three Chelsea and one lace up), they seem to fit my feet better.
Just picked some of these up. Everyone and the mother says they are the most comfortable boots since the coming of Christ. First time I put them on I actually laughed at how uncomfortable they are. The insole is very cushioned meaning it's takes away literally an inch of space inside. I can't wear them without extreme pain with the included insole. First time trying them on I took my foot out and all my toes and the top of my foot were red from just walking around my house. Next the inside is very primitive. I believe you mentioned it but there is no padding so the upper digs into the top of my ankle. They are new so I will see if they stretch out but I'm not too impressed so far.
@@whattheduck2106I really do like them. I had to buy low profile insoles for them. The ones included take up way too much space for me. I have high arches so there was some discomfort at the top of my foot but as I wear them they have slowly, very very slowly gotten better. I've also beaten them with a mallet to try and soften up the leather on the top lol. I've worn them every day for the past two months though and really do enjoy them.
The sizing on these is that each size has a specific length, the 1/2 size just increases the width. With the size “10”(equivalent to North American 10) it was just making too much contact with my big toe standing. The size equivalent to North American 11 was perfect. Maybe a bit too wide but length is good for my foot.
If wear 11 and you have a wide foot then you will have to go a half size up 11 1/2 is the same length as a 11 but wider. And they use the UK sizing so that would be 10 1/2.
After broken in they are comfortable but I’ve had mine for about 3 months now and the sole glue gave out on some places I am really hard on my boots but idk wish I wasn’t seeing this , This early
I'm looking at a pair of these today but after watching your review it has me a little concerned if you're saying they're not a daily wear. I'm a delivery driver and am on my feet a lot. I'm looking for a boot that's: comfortable, long lasting, lightweight, and waterproof Any recommendations?
Honestly I think these are nice boots but for me not as amazing as I expected. I can wear them for a day now with no issues but the break in was a lot more than expected. My go-to if I’m on my feet for a long time on possibly uneven ground is a 5.11 tactical boot. I have beaten the snot out of 2 pairs of their ATAC first generation boots. Never an issue. Put them on and just go in almost any weather. The ones I have are not waterproof but I can live with that. Maybe have a look at them? They have some nice ones with a side zip
Personally they are the best boots I have owned. I am heavy and I work 9 hours a day and have gone through so many boots looking for something that is comfortable and hard wearing. A year in and they’re still going strong and I had no issues breaking them in at all
Im 6'2 and near 100kg (should be sitting around 90-95) wear these almost 7 days a week and work in trades. Only take them off on a work day when they're so dirty i have to put em in the tray and wear my slippers.
I’m a plumber and wear them every day even weekends. Even my old ones I’ll wear to the beach with no socks they are the most comfortable shoe/boot l own.
I will take my 5.11’s over the red backs. It’s close but I can wear my 5.11’s all day long any time with no issues. If I go a few months without wearing the red backs my Achilles get sensitive again.
I have a pair of great barriers. Same issue. Break in was long and painful. I couldn't wear them for more than a hour initially. Same spot. Same issue with big toe. Wish I had gone up to a 10US rather than the 9.5US as rec in conversion. I felt they ran narrow also. Nice boots though.
There just seems to be a subset of buyers that have initial challenges with break-in. For me they are on the shelf for a little while… with the white stuff falling they are not suited for -30c. They are also too nice to wear in the melting slop of spring melt.
I walk like 10km daily (to get to work and back) could these replace running shoes i use ? (Reasoning i want something durable i sont run just walk fast).
I have no experience with that type of usage. My initial thought would be no but there is a lot of foam in the midsole and the outer sole should be quite durable. Maybe others can chime in. The issue would be 20k walking plus a work day, they may not last too long.
I’m wearing a Columbia winter boot I got as a warranty replacement quite a number of years ago. I think it was the original bugaboot. They have been serviceable. I would recommend a waterproof synthetic 8” or taller boot. Not a big fan of leather in salty/slushy conditions. I had a set of Merrill side zip winter boots which were ok but gave me lots of pain in my big toe. The outer last bent in a weird place with an internal ridge at the edge of the boot.
Just north of you in Georgian Bay, ON. Just bought my first pair of Redbacks after 4 pairs of Blundstone boots. The last 2 pairs being the CSA steel toed versions. Most happy. First 2 pairs were worn for over 10 years each working in the classroom teaching all day long. Last 2 pairs of Blundstones are great for the construction job site. Happy happy. Move I’ve got my Redbacks and they feel just more cushion’y’. And yes, they like a thicker sock. For winter I just wear a thicker pair of Merino wool socks. For serious outdoor purposes, then I have to wear a warmer pair of mukluks / Sorel Brand. Peace Be The Journey!
I’m in Canada and just wear them in spring, summer, fall. Not suitable for anything near freezing. There is no insulation other than the socks you wear.
Not a bad thing…. I have heard there are similarities. Not trying to emulate. It’s just who I am. Maybe similar voice but I don’t have his knowledge or potty mouth….

I work at a dealership shop. MAC and Snap On trucks carry Redback boots, probably why you see em in shop settings more
This guy is fussy!

I'll pay it everytime. Working delivery post they are the best things for the job.
send us some
Seriously, the markup is like 150% I had a pair of mongrels for like 100$ 30 was for shipping. now I am wearing a pair of rossi.

Agreed. It is all about having the proper sock. It is a good boot if you have a good pair of socks
I rotate mine from newish for work to older ones with holes and not watertight and the older ones l wear to the beach without socks.

Have you got an update on them yet? Just curious whether they have broken in for you at this point.

Nice review. The red "10" is it US or UK size?
That is an Australian 10 I believe. I’m a Canada/US size 11.
I subbed just because “woodbutcher” is the best term I have heard in years!! 😂
If you spray them they will live longer, take good advice as you seem to like giving it.
Ok, well noted.

Are these considered a warm boot?
I’m in Canada and just wear them in spring, summer, fall. Not suitable for anything near freezing. There is no insulation other than the socks you wear.
these things cost about 110aud in Australia or 75usd,the only thing that is cheaper in Australia.
Thats really odd they dont line that seam. Super strange...
Are these suede/nubuck ones as waterproof as the regular leather ones??
I believe so, but have not tested them in rain/water deep enough. They are as close to a dress shoe as I get…
I just ordered a pair, do you recall/recommend what you used to protect them?You think necessary to treat them brand new?
You must have bought lemons. I've had 3 pairs and they're comfortable from first wearing them.
I’ve been thinking about picking up some Redbacks when I go back to Canada. I was hoping the break in period would’ve been shorter 😢
I cannot find them in this color anywhere
I cannot find them at the retailer I got them at when I was there just a few weeks ago. Maybe supply chain issues?
@@mbwoodbutcher probably. I will wait and hope that prices will not go up
Leather does not make your feet sweat.
Side note, im convinced every Canuck will forever sound like AvE hahaha
Not a bad thing…. I have heard there are similarities. Not trying to emulate. It’s just who I am. Maybe similar voice but I don’t have his knowledge or potty mouth….
Don't buy Nicks Boots if you thought this break-in was bad😄
Got these for 150 cad
Australian made yet that colour isn't even available in Australia
If I wear a size 8 us would I still get that same size
No, the sizes are different. I really recommend trying them on. If you have to order online, then contact the company for suggestions.
I have these boots….Not recommend for cold weather,there is no lining or insulation….
I paid $160 US for mine
Do not listen to this. These boots are perfect from the get go!
This was just my experience, that is all I’m saying.
The worst boots I ever tried! The heel is so rough and tears holes in all my socks. Don't buy!
lol you can buy a smother soles
My heels slip in mine
