Red Wing Shoes - 877 - 8" Classic Moc Oro-iginal
[more]
The best thing of having shop is that you meet a diverse range of people and get to know all their different stories. Pauke Dekker is one of those clients. Being a chef cook and running her own company to serve delicious meals for private dinners, she often goes to Laneuvelle, France, to get some real ingredients. Laneuvelle is a small place where people grow their own food, from mushrooms, wine and escargot to all kinds of fruits and vegetables, whatever the season is offering. We're really happy to see a pair of Red Wing Shoes 877 Classic Moc Oro-iginals in a wine yard. Thank you Pauke for sharing your lovely story!
Just found out about this amazing documentary film illustrating the life, skills & character of the turn-of-the-century Maine lumbermen & river drivers. Using oral histories, rare films & photography 'In The Blood' presents an accurate and vivid portrait of the men who pioneered their way through the 19th century Maine woods. The documentary was made by Sumner McKane, a composer, multi-instrumentalist, and filmmaker based in mid-coast Maine and is a truly amazing source of inspiration.
When we started the Red Wing Shoes store Amsterdam I started collecting bank bags, and although I didn't started a real collection before I completely lost myself on ebay, searching for vintage bank bags, leather deposit bags and other vintage bank related pieces. The collection is still growing but I forced myself to put the energy in something worth sharing here. And a new collection was born.
Together with Menno we're now putting together a collection of vintage photographs of people wearing denim (for Tenue de Nîmes) and images of rail-, mine-, and factory workers for the Red Wing Shoes store Amsterdam. It's an amazing source of inspiration, and they will probably make it into a publication, but until then we will share some here.
Red Wing Shoes - 2941 - 7" Classic Round Dark Chocolate
The Red Wing Shoes 2941 are the original Irish Setters. This 2941 Dark Chocolate is a 7 inch boot, based on the 1955’s RW 708 model. A boot that people wore whether they worked the land or in factories. Built to withstand the toughest work and weather conditions. Equipped with speed hooks, that allow you to put them on and take them off with minimal fuss, and a coffee-colored cushion crepe sole for outstanding support and comfort. Until recently this model was exclusively available in Japan, but we are excited to announce you can get your own pair at the Red Wing Store in Amsterdam!

The light weight and durable leather is custom tanned at the S.B. Foot Tannery, located in Featherstone Township, Goodhue County, Minnesota. A beautiful classic, good for a stylish Christmas night out or a cold New Year's Eve around the fire. Stay Tuned.
