The 1892 Wisconsin Collection Kenosha Boot: Timeless Style Built to Last

Think of the year 1892, and what comes to mind? In this case, the Industrial Revolution, and leather making. That’s where the Kenosha Boot, part of the Wisconsin Collection by Thorogood, comes in. Inspired by the designs of Wisconsin master craftsman and shoemaker A. H. Weinbrenner, this collection from Thorogood perfectly captures the spirit of craftsmanship and attention to detail that is behind all the best American-made footwear.

Redwing Heritage Has Been Making Tried and True Work Boots Since 1905

When it comes to work boots, few makers have the same claim to fame as Redwing. They've been making tough-as-nails workboots in Red Wing, Minnestoa since 1905, turning out footwear tough enough for the demanding work of loggers, farmers and miners. Over 110 years later, and they're still crafting the Redwing Heritage originals, largely unchanged from their original design, and luckily for us, they look just as good out on the town or shoveling snow as they do on a lumberjack's feet.
