Description
With the Iron Ranger 8085, Red Wing delivers one of its most iconic boots. Originally designed for miners in the Minnesota region, it was built to withstand the harshest environments while providing reinforced foot protection.
Its rugged construction features a double-layer leather toe cap and a structured heel counter, ensuring stability and security in everyday wear. This makes it a reliable boot for both intensive use and regular urban wear.
The Copper Rough & Tough leather is a full-grain, oil-rich pull-up leather. Its high oil content during tanning creates a deep vintage appearance and a unique evolving patina that becomes richer over time with wear.
Mounted on a Vibram 430 Mini-Lug outsole, the boot combines grip, durability, and flexibility. This sole choice enhances its versatility, making it suitable for both city use and more demanding terrain.
