Oliver I thinkwhat zip boots has he got?
Seems the right place to ask this, has anyone got hold of some redback cobra ( zip up).mine are getting on a bit now, but I can’t seem to find any online?
I am considering a pair next, I have currently have redback cobras…..I've got a pair of the Steel Blues from a small business in the midlands. Big boots uk I think. I got my overboots from there and pair of their zip sided boots. Can't believe they're not bigger on farm.
What are they like on width fitting ? I bought a new pair of size 14 redbacks last year as a best boots pair, and moved my old ones down to every day pair. Can't get my feet into the new ones, just too tight, lots of others complaining too. Also my daughter's redbacks have fallen to pieces after less than 12 months, so I don't think I'll be going back. But being a wide size 14 it's a nightmare getting anything to fit without going to a specialist.I've got a pair of the Steel Blues from a small business in the midlands. Big boots uk I think.

Hard enough getting a 14 never mind a 15 !U need to go for a 15 it’s actually a 14 but a wider fit
They don’t keep growing, but they do get longer/wider……apparently as you age all the ligaments that hold them together can stretch a bit, looked it up as I have gone up half a size in most shoes.I’ve gone up a size with my mongrels, and some other footwear to be fair, do your feet keep growing as you get older? I’m in my 50’s and had been in size -0 for better part of 40 years
Try Shelley's boots, near Builth. Online too.Hard enough getting a 14 never mind a 15 !
Lots of places on the net advertising they cater for the larger foot, but start trawling through the boots most stop at 12 and usually only a few offerings at 13 and non at 14 , but takes an age to find this out

I would say they're generous in width. I don't feel the steel toe at all. Due to the zip, you can lace them how you like. So being ex military, I like to look like a GI still... however see a lot of people of socials that don't lace them up to the top. I guess to make them feel more loose?What are they like on width fitting ? I bought a new pair of size 14 redbacks last year as a best boots pair, and moved my old ones down to every day pair.

Has anyone seen any deals on? I need two pairs
Seeing this thread has been resurrected... I bought a pair of Rossi boots when CCF - I think - had them on sale a few years ago; and they are sh!te! Not especially comfortable, narrow at the toes, the leather has cracked more than would be expected and at both toe and heel the soles have come off.I've been using Redbacks for years and am pretty happy, but don't mind trying something else - it might be better! Which Blundstones do you recommend? I've just taken a squint at their website and there are a crazy number of types... also, how does the sizing compare with other makes, will a UK10 which is fine with Redbacks be fine with Blundstones? TIA.
