A Goodyear-welt boot worth mailing back to be resoled (Red Wing Heritage)

The first specific record on the Worn & carried shelf: the boot. We follow a full-grain, Goodyear-welted boot — Red Wing the benchmark — show the work behind the ~$47-a-year figure (sticker plus three resoles across fifteen-odd years), and settle the question the shelf left open: when a resole is worth it, and when the uppers have given their decade.

What you wear, kept long enough to wear out honestly — waxed cotton, welted boots, wool

The opening note for the Worn & carried shelf — on clothes and footwear chosen to be repaired rather than replaced. Waxed cotton you rewax, welted boots you resole, wool you darn or guarantee. We look at the materials, the makers in years, and the seam that decides renewal or landfill.
