STYLE NO. 9017 : BECKMAN CHUKKA
Part of the Beckman collection, the 9017 is a chukka style shoe made from our exclusive Antique Cigar Featherstone dress leather. Lightweight, durable and classic in look, a bit of polish keeps them looking sharp.
THE HISTORY BEHIND THE STYLE
In 1905, when Charles Beckman couldn’t find boots to wear in Red Wing’s muddy streets that matched his merchant status, he decided to start his own shoe company. Named after Beckman himself, the Beckman Collection features classic, sturdy shoes with timeless character

How it's made.
SMOOTH-FINISHED LEATHER
Smooth-finished leathers have a polished surface that enhances the true beauty and quality of the leather. Only the most premium, top-quality hides are used to craft smooth-finished leathers. The result is a beautiful, classic-looking leather used to build more elegant styles, such as the Red Wing Heritage Beckman Collection. The polished look and feel of the smooth-finished leather requires more specialized care and attention to keep it maintained.
