Fairly certain the sale is a US only thing. They've been doing it off and on for many years. Usually called a customer appreciation event or similar. An SA will invite you but I think if you know about the offer and contact an SA they'll give you the offer.Is this sale US exclusive? Bit out of the loop.
RE my question about heel slippage with RRL chelseas. Went to a cobbler and he told me that's common with those kind of shoes and nothing much one can do about it. However, should anyone know of a solution or trick that can reduce the heel slippage ... please let me know . Will just deal with in the meantime.
Are RRL boots intentionally much wider in the heels because they are intended for cowboys/horse riders? I read something about Western boots being wider in the heels to prevent someone from being dragged by a horse in case they fall off their horse. Or something like that😭
RE: Chelsea boots, you've described the fit of most all Chelsea boots, at least when new. They're kind of like loafers in terms of heel slip in that as you wear them in, the sole will flex more and heel slip will improve. *Maybe* a half or full insert would help. I have a pair of these from Amzn I put in Chelseas which are a bit too sloppy fit in the heel but are fine in the forefoot. I wouldn't walk a long distance but they're okay for a day at the office wear. They're cheap enough to try.
