Red Wing's classic Beckman has been updated and reissued in a long-awaited reissue. New colors of the classic model are also available, so enjoy fashion with boots in the fall!

The lingering summer heat has finally settled in, and it is now chilly in the mornings and evenings unless you wear long-sleeved items. The transition from spring/summer to fall/winter fashion means a change in footwear from sandals to boots.

What boots should you wear now? If there is such a question, I would answer "Red Wing" without hesitation. This is because the long-awaited reissue of the classic "Beckman," which had been out of stock for a long time, is now available.

Named after the brand's founder, Charles Beckman, this pair was created in 2006 based on the archives from the brand's founding period in 1905, adding today's materials and tastes. The plain design, which is a work boot but still a dress boot, became popular in the blink of an eye, but production was discontinued due to the production system affected by COVID-19, etc. Many fans have voiced their desire for its revival. It is not difficult to imagine that many fans have been constantly asking for the revival of these boots.

This reissue is more than just a reworking of the archive; it is also an improvement in design. An anatomically-conscious last has been used, and a thin layer of Poron foam has been added under the leather heel pad for a more comfortable fit. They are tighter around the instep than previous models, so you can often find yourself going up a half size.

The outsole is made of non-slip Gro-Cord. Stitching has been modified to match each Excalibur leather and can be easily cleaned with color cream without concern for color tinting.

RED WING BECKMAN (BLACK CHERRY EXCALIBUR LEATHER / LAST NO. 224) ¥55,550

The leather is "Excalibur," which is characterized by its high-quality luster. Its tough yet sexy appearance stimulates the desire for things. The reddish-brown "Black Cherry" gives an elegant and calm impression. By aging the shoes, they are likely to grow into a pair that exudes an even more austere and mature mood.

Black" is a definite color when it comes to a wide range of protection. It blends in well with casual as well as dressy outfits. The contrast with the brown leather will add a nice accent to your feet.

RED WING BECKMAN (CIGAR EXCALIBUR LEATHER / LAST NO. 224) ¥55,550

Cigar" is a well-balanced color. Not too heavy, not too light, just the right balance of color. It will add a light touch of color to your coordination while maintaining the dignity of your feet that "Red Wing" brings.

In addition to "Beckman," here are some other items of interest. This is the classic "6-inch Classic Moc," but with all parts in black for a more stoic and modern look.

RED WING 6-INCH CLASSIC MOC (BLACK HARNESS LEATHER / LAST NO. 23) ¥45,870

These 6-inch moc-toe boots with traction tread soles are representative of the Red Wing brand. The item uses "Black Harness," an oiled leather that brings out the original grain of the leather, while maintaining the same quality, and is characterized by its easy fit. The matte texture with a low sheen also adds a mature austerity to your coordination.

Here is the last one. The last one is the new color of "Iron Ranger. The royal model of American work boots has become much more fashionable by adopting the deep coloring of "Alpine Portage Leather".

RED WING IRON RANGER (ALPINE PORTAGE LEATHER / LAST NO. 8) ¥50,710

As is the case with military wear, the deep olive green hue is easy to blend in with any coordination. The coloring, which is unusual for boots, is also a big advantage. The classic capped toe detail and the unlikely combination of color schemes reaffirm the joy of fashion.

Red Wing" uses the highest quality leather and adheres to the "Made in the USA" policy, while cherishing the legacy of the product numbers passed down from the past. The more you wear them, the more you can enjoy their unique aging process, which is why they are loved by so many people. Whether you are already a captive of Red Wing or not yet familiar with its charms, why not enjoy fashion with the new products introduced here this fall? Their high quality will protect your feet and support your autumn and winter outfits.
