"Beckman 9423"
The 9423 Beckman, made from fine, dark red Black Excalibur leather, is the flagship of the Heritage collection. This 6-inch boot honours the company founder Charles Beckman, who founded the Red Wing Shoe Company in 1905. The Beckman combines two worlds in an impressive way: On the one hand, it represents the robustness and durability that have always characterised our shoes; on the other, it reflects elegance and a stylish appearance. A shoe that is suitable for every occasion, whether as a daily companion in urban everyday life in wind and weather or for special occasions in combination with a suit. The Beckman is always the right choice.
There are a few new features compared to the previous model. The last has been slightly modified so that the shoe now has a slimmer, less chunky silhouette with a narrower toe. As with the previous Beckman, the 9423 has a leather sole, but the Roccia sole has been replaced by our traditional Gro-Cord rubber outsole. This offers similar performance characteristics and is a modern interpretation of the soles used by Red Wing in the 1930s. The Black Cherry Excalibur leather impresses with its deep, rich dark red colour, which darkens over time and develops a unique patina. In addition, the Beckman comes with two different pairs of laces: a classic black/brown taslan and an elegant, flat lace made from waxed cotton. Another highlight of the 9423 compared to its predecessor is the three rows of Speedhooks at the end of the shaft, which make it much easier to put on and take off.

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.
