BOOT SHARING IN THE FAMILY | ... OR SHARING THE PASSION FOR RED WING BOOTS

This is little Levi – my son –, the boy who did some nice Red Wing Shoes animation films for Red Wing Frankfurt, Germany, posted at the beginning of this year. Growing up seeing Red Wing Boots every day at his mum's and my feet, it was just a question of time trying the first RWS boots on his own. “BOOT SHARING” is the magic word since some days at Levi's home. What a luck, Mum's #3375, the Red Wing Heritage Women's version of iconic #875, fits so perfect. More light weight, with softer leather, a slender fitting than the #875 and a cushioned insole this boot is not only perfect for women's feet but also for teens. But not only the women boots fit his feet perfect. The Red Wing #2918 Chelsea Ranger is his absolute favorite! Stepping through thick and thin, at school, in the yard, on dog walks, simply everywhere. And the best for Levi: no lacing – easy and speedy putting on and out. And this boot is aging so nice. So rugged, but you won't get it broken down. Built to fit, built to last. Levi loves his nice “new” worn in Red Wing Boots from mum ... while he is thinking about his next animation film where a Red Wing Boot will be the headliner. Have a great weekend! pics | LTG · video | Levi

RED WING HERITAGE WOMEN'S COLLECTION | THE “CORE” LINE

Yes, the “CORE” line is my favorite one! This line is what RED WING means to me, also for women: a perfect adaption of men's classics for women's feet. Iconic styles like the Moc Toe #875, the Iron Ranger #8111 and the Engineer #2990 are developed for women's feet requirements and needs. A perfect idea, knowing a lot of women wearing RED WING SHOES for years anyway. My wife never wailed about heavy or uncomfortable boots, but I know other ladies who did. So, right now they will get the perfect RED WING labeled boot with a perfect fit. This is what RED WING HERITAGE tells us about the “CORE” line: “Since our original Red Wing Heritage collection first started hitting the streets nearly a decade ago, women around the world have proudly worn our boots. The Core Collection features the most popular styles from our current men’s line, deconstructed and completely rebuilt for women, resulting in a boot that is lightweight, way more comfortable, and just as tough.” Something about the last RED WING used. Last No. 105 is based on our original Classic Moc, this is Red Wing's most iconic style like the mentioned #875. The women's version has been slimmed down just a bit in the width and toe for a true women's fit. Sounds good! Last No. 107 is used to give shape to the engineer boots. Based on the men’s #522, it’s a pull on lace that fits true to size. The No. 106 last is based on one of RED WING's oldest lasts, the 8 last, slightly modified for a better fit and sleeker feel for women. This timeless round toe shape gives the character to many of most popular RED WING boots. You'll get the RED WING HERITAGE WOMEN'S COLLECTION @ RED WING FRANKFURT in store and online, the other RWS shops around the world and selected RWS dealer. pics | RED WING HERITAGE
