The Classic Engineer is descended from Red Wing boots that were built in the first half of the 20th century for engineers working on American railroads. Today, the women’s Classic Engineer is made with soft leather and a polyurethane Traction Tred outsole for incredible out-of-the-box comfort. Leather straps and brass buckles secure the boot and give it give it the same rugged feel as the original legend of the railyard. The Classic Engineer is built with durable Puritan triple stitching and a fully resoleable Goodyear welt.
