Sad to say, even the TACCO insole was too small for my RW GT. I bought the largest size they have in store and its still smaller than my boot. (I wear a size 10 for RW)
Besides that, the arch support for the TACCO insoles are protruding sidewards and pushing onto the boot. Although its not much of a concern now, I'm worried that prolong protruding on the leather will cause a permanent mark on the boot which I wouldn't want.
Here, an insole I have to retire it early. It was very comfortable and very good looking (who the F looks and admire insoles!?)
Hence, I bought a replacement sole for my GTs. They are OK in terms of comfy without insoles. But I do walk and stand quite a fair bit and I want some shock absorption and comfort. I bought the authentic Red Wing RedBed insoles.
Hi! How do you remove the original leather insole? I have a 875 and wanted to change the insole but its welted into the shoe :)
ReplyDeleteHey there! Nah, I didn’t remove the original insole. For the 9013, I just place the insole on top of the original one. Cos my 9013 is half size bigger than my true size, so I can afford to place another insole without feeling too cramp.
ReplyDeleteDidn’t use any extra insole for my 875 though. I just wear it as it is. :)
Ahhhh.... i size down 1/2... tried placing another insole on top but its too cramped... :(
ReplyDeleteI see. The insole (red wing insoles) im using will definitely be too thick for your case. perhaps you can try those thin insoles available at pharmacies those kind?
