It has almost become too hard to compare boots with the same same over a period of time. As some have indicated, there are knock-offs, spin-offs, change in supplier, change in specs, premium line vs. mediocre line. I have a friend who has worked at Red Wing Boots for 35 years and he said its a cut throat market out there.
