・Iron Ranger Iron Ranger is a word that refers to the miners who work in the iron ore mining region ``Iron Range'' in the northern part of Minnesota, USA, where Red Wing Company is located. They wore "capped toe" boots with a layer of leather added to the toes to protect the toes, which is why these capped toe boots were named Iron Ranger boots. This "capped toe" design was widely used in work boots in the early 20th century. As time passed, steel toes, which are now the standard specification for safety shoes, became popular and became less common, but some steel toe boots retained the capped toe design, which was a specification for toe protection and reinforcement at the time, until the 1990s. The Iron Ranger is a refined version of the capped toe design that has been passed down to this day. This IRON RANGER / TRACTION TRED is a pair of shoes that combines this classic upper with Red Wing's iconic traction tread sole. The midsole is made of highly cushioned poron material, which has a reputation for being a super sole. So
By attaching a thin leather sheet on top, we have achieved cushioning and comfort. The leather is Oro Legacy, a brown leather representing Red Wing. We select raw leather with a particularly smooth grain surface, tan it and then dye it without applying any paint to the grain surface, resulting in a leather with a natural texture. The more you wear it, the more you wear it, the more the leather becomes more expressive and the more you wear it.
