You assume correctly, turnaround was about 8 weeks on mine. I’m wearing some timberland pros right now that my work paid for, they are not bad but not a long term solution either, most of the guys in the factory just get a new pair every year. I’ll probably save up for a pair of Nick’s or White’s, it’ll hurt spending that much on boots but I’ve heard nothing but good things.

I have a pair of 2414s from 2016, just got them resoled a few months ago after about 10k hours of wear, unfortunately redwing botched the repair and glued the right sole on with the heel misaligned by 1/4 inch. They gave me a refund for the repair but refused to fix the issue. I managed to sand down the area that sticks out but they don’t wear the same. Turned me off on the brand for a while at least.
