Cappelletto is always looking for the best footwear for men and women. For this autumn winter 2018/2019, among the many brands present in our stores, we recommend you Red Wing Shoes Company, and especially their line Red Wing Shoes Heritage. This company is based in the United States, Minnesota and was born as a manufacturer of work shoes (which is still their main business) way back in 1905 !!!

In particular the Red Wing has been producing women's boots since 1926 and he never stopped doing it. But above all it produces a line of footwear, the classic and best known MocToe e Iron Ranger that Cappelletto Treviso and Mogliano have been offering for different seasons.

RED WING - FW 2018/19 - Classic Moc Toe 1907 - Copper

RED WING - FW 2018/19 - 8083 - Iron Ranger

 

First quality leathers

Before buying a pair of Red Wing, we suggest you browse our collections Red Wing Man e Red Wing Woman where you will find in detail the technical and photographic documentation of the various models. Even if you already own a couple and want to know the latest news. The Red Wing production process boasts a century-old history: si begins with the choice of top quality leathers and then proceeds to the creation by hand of a truly artisanal and long-lasting product. And the result, in our opinion, that we are very close to "made in Italy," is very authentic! The more they are used, the more the Red Wing take on their taste rugged unmistakable.

Present at the Red Wing Shoes Women launch in Amsterdam

But let's get to the latest news.
In January 2016 Cappelletto Treviso was selected, together with forty other stores across Europe, to participate in Amsterdam at the world launch of the new Red Wing Shoes women's collection.

 

Besides us, only a few other shops on the Italian fashionshoes scene were present.
On that occasion, from the first-hand ownership, we were told a lot about the Red Wing world, one of the few shoe factories in the world to have its own tannery, which is located next to the shoe production plant.  The shoe factory therefore creates its own leathers which are exclusive to its footwear. Hence the result of a truly unique product.

Style tips

After two seasons we can say that Red Wing is becoming a #musthave in the wardrobe not only for men but also for the most dynamic women,  athletic  and a little "rugged". They adapt very well to jeans but also to the little country style dress! They are very resistant, the hides are soft and with a nice pair of big socks (obviously we recommend Alto Milano), they become warm and suitable to be worn even in the mountains.

 

RED WING - 3375 Moc Toe - legacy gold

 

For the women's line non the numbered shoes have simply been adapted, but the company has taken care of every detail in re-adapting to female proportion what was once a shoe for male use only. So the details are appreciable in the choice of the softer material, the eyelets scaled down proportionally, the height of the upper, the super light polyurethane sole and of course the development of some colors only for the female line.
