BOOT OF THE DAY | #83 | RED WING 8881

news directly from the european RWS base: “This fall,  Red Wing Shoe Company offers a new 
color-way of the classic 6-inch Moc Toe,  by origin a style for farmers and hunters. The new 
8881 comes in Olive Mohave leather with gold/tan leather lacing. Olive Mohave is a high quality,  
waterproof roughout leather type. Red Wing’s tannery originally created the leather for the 
US Army – but no longer uniquely. Combined with the cushion crepe outsole,  triple stitched 
quality and Goodyear welt construction make it a typical Red Wing boot.” available at volls.de

DENIM DEMON x KERO BOOTS | WHEN A RED WING 877 GOES SWEDEN

this isn’t for me a copy but a work boot interpretation with a wink. found at great swedish shop
CALIROOTS who call this boot their self a “RED WING style BEAK BOOT”. the shape of this “hybrid”
boot is based on a traditional sami beak mixed with the classic 877 style from RWS. made of
vegetable tanned cowhide leather sourced straight from the KERO tannery in Sattajärvi and super
flexible VIBRAM MOREFLEX CRISTY soles. super limited numbers! funny, anyway. and check the
KERO site and you’ll find some other great leather goods, not only boots and shoes. pics | caliroots

LIFE TIME GEAR | PRIVATE FAVORITES #26 “LANYARDS“

no day without my REDMOON WALLET. because of this no day without a lanyard. the original REDMOON lanyard is really rugged and broken in. more than 3 years of daily wear left marks and i want to prevent it from complete damage. so, since a couple of weeks i change my lanyards day by day. here are some of them. my absolutely fav at the moment is the one from TANNER GOODS.

RED WING SHOES | “EXCLUSIVE” COPIES ALL AROUND

hm, that’s new. now exclusive and expensive shops are selling – or try to sell –  f***ing RED WING SHOE copies. these were found just 2 days ago in FRANKFURTS MOST EXPENSIVE GOETHESTRASSE at boring ULI KNECHT. some other sorts of this wanna be boot rubbish at BAILLY UND DIEHL. damn, i cannot find a reason why they are selling these shit kickers. some streets ahead there is the mother of RED WING STORES in europe  – since 1977! – and the B-74 managed by KAMI and his team. in any case a better choice for some ingenious boots, denim or anything else we guys love. look at the window cleaner below: yep, what a nice boot! pics | the unknown cowboy – thx!
