Deadstock RED WING #2218 boots, made in the U.S.A. Size: 8 1/2D (Equivalent to JPN size: 26.5cm) (Note) My shoe size is around 26cm, but for work boots like these, I usually choose a larger size, assuming I'll use insoles. Brand: RED WING SHOES Country of Manufacture: Made in the U.S.A. Manufacturing Year: February '95, stamped on the inside of the right boot near the opening (stamping was later discontinued) Color: Black Style: Work boots 【Label Information】 M/I 75: Men's specification, impact resistance 75 (highest level) •C/75: Compression resistance 75 (highest level) •EH: Electrical insulation specification 【PT-91 (Printed Label)】 This indicates the steel cap standard set by ANSI (American National Standards Institute), with the number 91 representing the year the standard was established. (PT stands for Protective Toe, meaning steel toe.) The size markings on the leather parts are fading due to aging. It is said that Red Wings from the PT-83 to PT-91 era had the best leather quality. The interior and exterior, including the inner lining, have no cracks. There are no critical frays or leather deterioration, and they are in a condition suitable for normal wear. Some areas show the brown core of the leather. The dynamic texture, typical of the American style of the time, will be irresistible to Harley riders and those who love American casual fashion. These boots have been passed on from person to person, so they are vintage. Those accustomed to vintage clothing should be able to wear them without issue. However, if you are concerned about the scratches or smells that come with used clothing, we recommend that you refrain from purchasing. Thank you for viewing.
