An Analysis of the New Red Wing Shoes 9166 Hand-Sewn Chukka Style

Red Wing Heritage introduced a couple of new styles this spring for the upcoming season. To not let them pass by silent and give you a sense of what they're made of and sets them apart from others, we'll present you with a proper analysis. After the 8051 and the 9165 styles, we'll now present you the new 9166 Sage Mohave Hand-Sewn Chukka. As the name already suggests, the Red Wing Genuine Hand-Sewn collection is sewn together by hand, with old-fashioned techniques and is made in Maine, the traditional home of the moccasin style. The shoe features 3 bronze eyelets and the extra upper gives the shoe a considerable better stabilitmy than a regular boat shoe. The shoe is made with a Sage Mohave reverse suede leather, a leather type originally designed to resist the hardest field conditions. The outer sole is different from a regular boat sole, and was manufactured by the advanced experts at Vibram. The outer Dual Density Rubber EVA sole was developed for its extreme lightweight and its flexibility, while remaining a good grip on wet surfaces.
