Red Wing Heritage Handsewn collection

Posted on August 29th, 2011 by Red Wing Shoes

The ubiquitous blogger slash man-about-town William Yan stopped by our booth at the Project Las Vegas trade show this past week to check out the new offerings from spring / summer 2012. While checking everything out, William took some beautiful photos of the new Genuine Handsewn collection that will be arriving in stores at the beginning of next year. You can see more of William’s photos of Red Wing Heritage goods here.

Originally sold as a boot for hunters, the 877 soon gained popularity among skilled craftsmen. An ad from 1970 shows John Rukavina, a Chicago iron worker, atop the Sears Tower in his 877.
