Red Wing Shoes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Red Wing Shoes is a footwear company that specializes in producing durable boots.
Red Wing Shoes was founded by Charles H. Beckman in Red Wing, Minnesota in 1905. Within 10 years, the company had begun producing more than 200,000 pairs of boots per year, and issued the standard footwear to soldiers fighting in World War I. During World War II, Red Wing continued to manufacture boots for soldiers.
Red Wing Shoes also manufactures shoes under the brands Carhartt, Irish Setter Boots, Vasque, and Worx, and most recently expanded into making men's and women's casual shoes.
Many consider Red Wing boots to be the premiere steel toe work boot available on the market.
