They are Red Wings, quality you expect! These are the Irish Setter line of Red Wings so they are assembled overseas, but the quality is great. These are the Farmington model, steel toe, king toe box for more toe room. These are very comfortable for a steel toe work boot. The soles are grippy even in the wet. I may need to put a better insole for long day standing, but so far haven't needed too. The leather is quite supple, so I'm hoping they hold up to the abuse and will update my review if needed.
