Notes -
I wear a pair of Iron Rangers about 100 days per year, and have been for the last... 17 years (damn, time flies). They need a new heel about every second year, and a complete resole every 4 years.
For the resole, I just send them to Red Wing directly. It's around $130, I think. They're gone for a few weeks over the summer, then they return completely rebuilt with new, original soles. On one of the first resoles, I asked the cobbler if he could use the vibram sole from the Red Wing Beckman instead of the original leather sole from the Iron Ranger (since the leather soles are extremely slippery in mud and snow) - no problem, looks perfect.
Love those shoes.
