What's This Video About?
The iconic Red Wing Iron Ranger! This is my review of a pair that I bought from eBay which came over-conditioned. I look over the boot, and talk about how I fixed the over-conditioning! But if that's not you, you can buy new Red Wing heritage boots here https://bit.ly/BootlosophyRedWing

Who Am I?
I am a Management Consultant in real life but in my Bootlosophy channel, I make videos about boots and all things boot related. This channel posts reviews of boots, unboxing of new boots, and follow up reviews, and in doing so, may explore the philosophy of the brands from time to time!
I have owned boots for decades, but to be honest I have owned them as functional pieces of footwear. It wasn't until early 2020 when COVID struck that I started online shopping boots to an obsessive degree. I love the aesthetic of boots and I love finding out more about how they are made. I now own an insane number of boots, and one day I may sell some of them (just not right now).
