Red Wing Heritage Debuts Exclusive Steve McQueen Boots
Red Wing Heritage Launches the Exclusive Steve McQueen Boot
As part of the ongoing Will Your Wings campaign, Red Wing Heritage is thrilled to announce the release of a limited edition boot inspired by the legendary Steve McQueen. This collaboration with his granddaughter, Molly McQueen, continues the brand's commitment to craftsmanship and story-driven design.
Saluting a Legacy
The inspiration for this classic boot comes directly from Steve McQueen’s original pair of Red Wing boots. This special design beautifully combines both heritage and modernity. Molly McQueen expressed her excitement, saying, "We're honoring him in a way that juxtaposes what he originally wore with a contemporary design." The boot showcases various unique features, including Oro Legacy Leather, Dull Gilt brass eyelets, and stylish tan leather laces. Additionally, customers will notice modern elements like a black Traction Tred outsole and custom embossments featuring Steve's signature as well as his '278' racing number along the boot heel.

Official availability online will commence soon after, ensuring that fans of this iconic footwear can secure their pair with ease. Known for their quality and tradition, Red Wing boots continue to resonate with those who value lasting style and commitment to excellence.
A Commitment to Sustainability
The Will Your Wings campaign further champions sustainability, promoting a product life cycle that's designed to last.
