Red Wing Heritage is a heritage/lifestyle collection developed for consumers based on the archives of Red Wing Shoe Company. It was launched in 2007 following a collaboration with J.Crew and reissues classic models from the past. Centered on staples such as the Iron Ranger, Classic Moc, and Beckman, it is characterized by construction using traditional methods, including Goodyear welt and stitchdown construction. The leather is sourced from S.B. Foot Tanning, and production takes place primarily at factories in the United States. Whereas the parent brand’s work and safety lines serve to meet on-the-job safety standards, Heritage is positioned primarily for everyday wear and archival reissues.
