REDWING (Red Wing) ・Iron Ranger Iron Ranger is a word that means miners who work in the iron ore mining area "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. The last (wooden type) is No. 8 last, which is widely used in Red Wing's round toe boots. They have a relaxed design typical of work boots, and are well-regarded for their ease of wear. The sole uses Vibram #430 mini-lug sole with excellent grip.
I used it. This #8078 is made of Alpine Portage leather with an earthy tone and a deep green color. Stylish leather has been added to the popular Iron Ranger series, further expanding the lineup.
