"Iron Ranger 8085"
The Iron Ranger - the classic from Red Wing is one of the most popular models. It is classically timeless and can really be worn with any trouser style. Despite its popularity, the Iron Ranger was re-released in 2017, with the majority of models now being made with the Vibram 430 instead of the Nitrile Cork sole. The Vibram 430 sole has a tread pattern that gives the shoe significantly better grip in tricky terrain.
The new 8085 Iron Ranger is part of this series, which can be seen as the only true addition to the collection. Due to the high demand for a model in the popular Copper Rough & Tough, this shoe is now finally also available from us. The name can be traced back to the inhabitants of the Mesabi Iron Range in the north of Minnesota. Already many decades ago the miners needed a shoe that could withstand the most adverse circumstances. Even then, the inhabitants of the Iron Range appreciated this shoe because it was the perfect candidate due to the extra reinforced toe cap and the perfected heel construction.

A small spot, in the bend of the Mississippi, is inhabited by the Indian tribe Lutasha until 1857. The Lutasha chief gave his name to the village: Red Wing. The young German, Charles Beckmann, worked in a tannery, but soon he was to create great things. Driven by his passion for leather craftsmanship, he founded the Red Wing Shoe Company in 1905. His idea: hard-wearing, robust, durable boots for the workers of the emerging industry of the 1930s. The result was number 650, the 16-inch shoe for navvies, a tall calfskin boot that is still part of the product line today. The designs for numbers 2268 and 915, the engineer's boot and the oil worker's boot also date from this period. Quality proves itself. In the 1950s, the 'Irish Setter' was introduced as a style that became an integral part of American workwear. And the legendary number 888, the 'Super Setter', combines the highest quality fabrics from all over the world: underleather from Australia, uppers from Scotland, shoe flaps from England, laces from Germany, Norwegian waterproof edge stitching and Swiss soles. Anyone who has been to the Red Wing factory will understand why these boots are not just boots, but a piece of the wearer's identity. This boot is made to last - "built to fit, built to last". Because in the more than 200 stations at Red Wing, every move is made with the utmost precision. The employees, who sew by hand the old-fashioned way and check every inch of leather from their own tannery, put so much passion into every single boot that you can feel it when you wear them. Maximum wearing comfort is ensured by a perfect fit. Through consistency and a commitment to listening to what customers want, Red Wing has created a product that in 100 years has evolved from a worker's shoe to the favourite footwear of many people around the world.
