Nice looking boot. I looked for pricing info online but was unsuccessful. As these are lined, I'm guessing that they will not be cheap. I have a RedWing dealer around the corner so I might stop by and inquire.

they are probably around $300. I doubt your Redwing dealer has even heard of these, they tend to not sell any of the USA Redwings, just the cheap foriegn made ones. I wore my Gentleman Travelers to my Redwing dealer and he said, "those are nice but we only sell Redwings here"

That sounds about right. I'll be sure to wear my Indy boots to the Redwing store when I do go. :laugh:

I wore my GTs and the guy flipped out! He was like "Wow! those are really nice!" uhh yeah I know...This was when zappos just started selling them a few years ago...He had a pamphlet with the heritage line and he said hed order me a pair but he never called me back. I wanna get a whisey GT.
 
Gotta have those. A vastly updated version of the suede models I wore and wore and wore during junior and senior high. And I see the suede models are in vogue again as well....
 
Those are terrific boots. I'll have to pick up a pair when they're released.

Does anyone know what the sole is on these? It would be great to have chukkas that can be resoled, especially ones with classic lines like these.

Ok...just reading this thread has me a bit worried. I plan on going to my Redwing store tomorrow for some Gentleman Travellers. How would you say the sizing is? I usually wear a size 12 US in Dr. Marten shoes.

GTs run huge on me. My foot measures 9 and 7.5 fits me. So at least 1 size big. They are both long in the toe and heel. Your best bet is to order 2 pairs from zappos and return the one that doesn't fit.

Yup. Totally going to try to grab a pair in the "chili" color. They look great.

Well its a bit of a highjack, but I just purchased the Gentleman Traveler. Hope the 11.5 Works out. Unfortunately my Red Wing store didnt carry them, and i had a better deal on ebay.
 
I currently have 2 Red Wing Gentleman Traveler pairs, both in color Chestnut (style number 9013). One is 8.5D and other is 9D, both never worn except tried on in the house, I was thinking of putting them up for sale next week for $200 shipped.
