Editor's Notes: When it comes to classic boots, few are as highly regarded as RED WING.

Truly a staple of Americana style, RED WINGS boots, namely the 6-inch Classic Moc has stood the test of time, not only as a heritage silhouette but a contemporary icon synonymous with quality and craftsmanship.

All over the world, these tough boots have been adopted and celebrated by everyone from inner-city hipsters to tech wear fanatics. Its portfolio of collaborations is not one to be overlooked, either, reigning in the likes of New Balance, Hiroshi Fujiwara's fragment design, and Timex.

When gearing up for winter, RED WING's offering of boots is a top-tier consideration – they'll offer protection, comfort, and a hardwearing build, but most of all, a timeless aesthetic.

Fall/Winter 2021 provides an updated take on the classic 6-inch boot. How? With GORE-TEX, of course.

The year's end is full of promises (see you soon, failed resolutions), rain being the biggest of them all. As such, RED WING has retooled its popular silhouette with GORE-TEX, giving the pristine leather finish the splash-ready treatment it deserves.

Releasing alongside the new GORE boot is the "Black Cherry" colorway. Although it lacks the weather protection of its counterpart, the boot's cherry coloring abundant oil, which gives it a unique, uneven color that will change over time, like your favorite pair of raw denim.
