I believe they are, it will say so on the tongue and orig insoles. If their Irish Setters theyre technically not Red-Wings.They use their highest grade of leather for their redwing line, and the rest for their other lines.

That being said I have a pair and they have lasted 5+ years. Great boot.

Look fella, if you don't like the taste of Teflon in your eggs, what kind of breakfast are you eating?? I do treat my college pans like a newborn baby. I don't like buying new things that I have already bought. But you're right I should probably stop using them after all this time and upgrade to something new and nicer... All-Clad maybe.

I mean….I’m willing to bet your other non stick pans have scratches and stuff in them that you shouldn’t be cooking on either. Non stick fails. It’s not avoidable unless you’re treating it like a freshly born baby day in and day out. It’s a crap invention and crap product, doesn’t matter the brand. Personal opinion

Respectfully, I disagree completely. If someone else had a similar situation that they were able to navigate more effectively, I would love to hear their experience. At the very least I would at least know it is worth pushing if I hear they will honor their warranty. Additionally, I can't imagine that anyone's time while scrolling Reddit can be considered wasted. I am not making a sick hourly wage while I scroll through posts only to be completely ruined by a post asking a legitimate question.

Nonstick pans do fail. I agree. This is a brand that is typically respected for their durability. With proper care nonstick pans can last a while. I expected better from All Clad based on their reputation.

The opinions of others with All Clad and nonstick pan warranty claims bears no role in your experience now or in the future, so asking is wasting everyone's time. And I mean this respectfully and nicely. Nonstick pans do fail and if you got 3 years out of this one, you are doing good and should be happy to get that life out of it.

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.
