Red Wing Shoes
Family-owned American bootmaker since 1905, known for resoleable Goodyear-welted work and Heritage lifestyle boots like the Iron Ranger.

What to know about Red Wing Shoes
A work-boot maker first
Founded in 1905 in Red Wing, Minnesota, the company still builds work and safety boots; the Heritage lifestyle line only grew out of a 2007 J.Crew collaboration.
It owns its own tannery
Much of the leather comes from Red Wing's S.B. Foot Tanning Company, and the company remains family-owned under a fourth-generation CEO.
Built to be resoled
Heritage boots like the Iron Ranger 8111 and Classic Moc are Goodyear-welted at roughly $300-$400, so the sole can be replaced rather than the boot.
