We are excited to launch the first Red Wing Upper Tier release of 2019; the 87519 Classic Moc Toe in Oro-Harness. We could name this release a sustainable project from Red Wing Heritage.
This limited edition 87519 Moc Toe is made with a hybrid leather between Amber Harness and Oro Legacy; Oro-Harness. It has a color closer to Amber but the base formula and finishing of the Legacy leather. The leather is made from Oro Legacy crust but as the color was a bit off for our usual 875 Moc Toe boots rather than discarding good leather we developed this limited edition 87519 boot.
There was 6.000 feet of hides available to create a new leather, we have named this “Oro Harness”. This is the beauty of having our own tannery. We can utilize these opportunities to make unique and limited edition leather stories.
The first time in history the new Upper Tier releases will come with some special specifications like a special Upper Tier shoe box, Red Wing branding on the side of the boot, 2 sets of laces and a black Red Wing label in the tongue.
