I’ve worn mine everyday since Sunday this week, feel a lot better now.

Thanks to the Traction Tred sole they will become as comfortable as sneakers to wear.

Whilst it’s comfy, I can’t wait to resole my 875s with something different.

My 875s need a resole too… what are you gonna go with?

I’m not too sure, I just emailed red wing to see what my options are if I go through them.

I bought a pair of slightly used Chukkas on eBay two weeks ago.
When I put them on they feel quite snug, especially on the front (toes and outside).
After about 0.5-1 hour of wearing they feel quite comy and not snug anymore.
I have worn them about 10 times since I got them and it's always the same.
Is that normal if they are not fully broken in yet?

Leather will stretch like denim and the stitch down construction will also become more pliable when pressure is applied. It may well be that they weren’t fully broken in when you got them, but they will also break in differently around your feet, than how they broke in around the original owners. So it’s probably a combination of those two things.

That sounds plausible. Thank you @neph93

My Red Wing chukkas took FOREVER to break in.

As long as they don't hurt or restrict your movement they'll be fine.
