Charles Beckman founded the Red Wing Shoe Company in 1905 in Red Wing, Minnesota, to provide durable footwear for workers in industries like mining and farming. During World War I and II, the company manufactured boots for the United States military. In the late 20th century, these functional designs transitioned into the fashion sphere. The brand became a staple in the workwear-inspired heritage movement, bridging the gap between industrial utility and contemporary urban style.
