ABOUT
The story behind the style.
STYLE NO. 2970 : ENGINEER
The 2970 is an 11-Inch un-lined pull-on engineer boot, built with premium Briar Oil Slick leather, Traction Tred outsole, silver hardware and sturdy Goodyear welt construction.
THE HISTORY BEHIND THE STYLE
Originally developed for engineers working on America’s railroads, the Engineer Collection’s pull-on styling and minimal stitching was designed to protect their feet from hot embers
MATERIALS
How it's made.
OIL-TANNED LEATHER
S.B. Foot Tanning Co. is best known for oil-tanned leather which is used to build a variety of timeless Red Wing styles. This leather is water, stain and perspiration resistant, and has a more natural look and feel because less finishing materials have been applied, allowing its natural beauty to shine through. Oil-tanned leather is exceptionally durable and has been used to build countless work boots throughout Red Wing’s 108+ year history.
