THE HISTORY BEHIND THE STYLE
The Beckman Collection is named after Charles Beckman, the founder of Red Wing Shoe Co. Beckman "Flatbox" is inspired by 1920-30s Red Wing 6-Inch toe boots with "flatbox" features. “Flatbox” is a terminology that signifies toe of shoe, made without “box-toe”, that is a part of retaining the toe shape. Back in 1920-30s, about a half of 6-Inch boots that Red Wing Shoe Co made, did not have box-toes. In early 1960s, there were many work footwear, especially 6-Inch lace up boots that were made “Flatbox”. The Beckman without “box-toe” is easy to break-in and superb comfort. It turns out significantly charming silhouettes as they aged with wear.

MATERIALS
Full finished leathers have a smooth, polished surface that enhances the natural beauty of the leather.
SMOOTH-FINISHED LEATHER
Smooth-finished leathers have a polished surface that enhances the true beauty and quality of the leather. Only the most premium, top-quality hides are used to craft smooth-finished leathers. The result is a beautiful, classic-looking leather used to build more elegant styles, such as the Red Wing Heritage Beckman Collection. The polished look and feel of the smooth-finished leather requires more specialized care and attention to keep it maintained.

SIZING & BREAK IN
In order to build a Red Wing boot to an exact size and width, the boot is constructed around a shoe last.
STYLE NO. 9063: BECKMAN ROUND
A new pair of Red Wing Heritage boots should fit comfortably tight on your foot, with enough room to freely wiggle your toes. Over time the full grain leather upper, leather footboard and cork midsole mold to your feet, creating an enduring and customized fit over time with each wear.
THE 9063 IS BUILT USING THE NO. 8 LAST:
A last is used in shoemaking to give footwear its three-dimensional shape. Resembling the human foot, the last determines critical toe, heel and girth dimensions for fit, style and function.
- Many customers buy Red Wing Heritage footwear 1/2 size smaller than their normal size
- Trying on Red Wing Heritage footwear in a store is recommended to get the perfect fit
- Features a bump toe for more room up-front
- Fits a variety of foot shapes
