Red Wing Shoe Company is a legendary American footwear brand established in 1905 by Charles Beckman in Red Wing, Minnesota. The company is celebrated for its vertical integration, notably owning the S.B. Foot Tanning Company, which has supplied its premium leathers since the brand's inception. While Red Wing is one of the few remaining major footwear manufacturers in the United States, its production is global.

The iconic Heritage collection and many of its heavy-duty work boots are still manufactured in the USA at plants in Red Wing, Minnesota, and Potosi, Missouri. However, to meet global demand and various price points, the company also utilizes manufacturing facilities and partners in China, Vietnam, Cambodia, and the Dominican Republic. Ownership has remained within the Sweasy family for four generations, maintaining its status as a private, family-owned American enterprise focused on durability and craftsmanship.
