The Postman Oxford is known for its all-day comfort, making it a favorite of mail carriers for decades. The traditional Oxford construction and all-black color palette make the Postman a timeless Red Wing classic.
THE STORY BEHIND THE STYLE:
In the 1950s, police officers still went on patrol on foot, and letter carriers also delivered their mail on foot. The long hours they spent on their feet called for comfortable and sturdy footwear, and in 1954 Red Wing responded with the No. 101 model, a rugged black oxford shoe with a moldable insole. The shoe could be polished to meet the demands of the uniform, but it was also tough enough for anything a policeman or letter carrier had to do on his rounds.
Red Wing never stopped producing this popular shoe, so it's no surprise that the Postman is one of the company's best-known and most iconic models.
MATERIAL AND CARE:
The S.B. Foot Tanning Co. is known for oil-tanned leather, which is used for many timeless Red Wing models. This leather is resistant to water, dirt and perspiration and has a more natural look than many other leathers because less finishing agents are used. Oil-tanned leather is exceptionally durable and hard-wearing and has been used for countless shoes in Red Wing's 100-year history.

SIZE AND BREAK-IN OF THE SHOES
A new pair of Red Wing Heritage boots should fit snugly but comfortably on the foot, with enough room for the toes to move freely. Red Wing shoes run large, so most customers buy Red Wing shoes half a size smaller than their other shoes.
Over time, the leather upper, leather footbed and cork midsole will mold to your foot to create a custom fit.
MATERIAL AND CARE
The rugged soles, premium leather, triple stitching and welted "Goodyear Welt" construction combine to create quality shoes that will last a lifetime. It takes 230 steps to make a pair of Red Wing shoes by hand, but it only takes three steps to keep them clean, cared for and protected.
