In 1950, a beautiful new leather was created specifically for Red Wing using a dye made from the bark of trees with a naturally red coloration. The leather was named “Oro Russet” for the richness of its color, a color that resembled the coat of an Irish Setter hunting dog, and was used to build some of the first 877 style boots.

R.A.F. Airman and his dog
It is the pervading law of all things organic and inorganic,
Of all things physical and metaphysical,
Of all things human and all things super-human,
Of all true manifestations of the head,
Of the heart, of the soul,
That the life is recognizable in its expression,
That form ever follows function. This is the law.
From London England, relocated to Portland Oregon.
Americana.
