American footwear label Red Wing Heritage unveils its latest silhouette entitled the 'Work Oxford' shoe. The piece boasts a rounded toe design and a lightweight construction in preparation for the spring season upon us. The silhouette was only previously available in the Japanese market, but the label now introduces the raved silhouette in a modernized version. The inspiration for the piece is drawn from the original 'work oxford 303' from the 50s.
The reiterated styles include the 8001 in Oro Russet Portage, as well as the 8002 in Black Chrome. The label's new contemporized shoes are constructed from a premium, oil-tanned leather material. This protects the piece from water, stain, and perspiration. It also has a Traction Tred outsole and Norwegian welp makeup. The shoes are now available for purchase online at Red Wing Heritage for the price of $249.00 USD.
