Red Wing Second - 9422 Beckman Men's 6-Inch Boot in Cigar Excalibur Leather

Great purchase. I strongly recommend recommended sizing wise. It is true to size. I am full Brannock 10.5, slightly wide feet. I could have gone with 11. But definitely not 10. The boot feels a little more formal than say iron range. My best Fitting boots is iron Ranger 9.5 EE, if this helps any. I will come back to shop for 8111 when EE size becomes available! Many things to the Berkeley supply team!

The Beckman 9422 is easily the most refined. The Cigar Excalibur leather has a rich, premium finish that makes the boot feel equally at home with raw denim or chinos. I also chose my regular US 10 for these. A US 9.5 would have worked as well, but I actually prefer the slight extra space, and the fit is still excellent. Elegant without losing its work boot heritage, this is a timeless boot that I'm excited to break in.

These boots are easily the best pair I’ve ever owned. I’ve had them for less than a year, so time will tell if they truly live up to their reputation. So far, they’ve been outstanding—and they look great, too.
