STYLE NO. 875 : Classic Moc

Practically identical to the iconic 877, the 875 is simply a shorter iteration. It’s six inches of premium Red Wing Oro Legacy leather combined with Goodyear welt construction, a Traction Tred rubber outsole and triple stitched quality.

THE HISTORY BEHIND THE STYLE

Red Wing’s Classic Work boots were designed and built to withstand the daily rigors of the work day on the farm and in the factory. The lightweight crepe sole featured a minimal tread design to reduce the mud that would cling to a farmer’s boots but still provide the underfoot comfort the work day required. Red Wing would brand the crepe sole as the Traction Tred sole. These classic boots featured a moc toe design. The name came from the word moccasin, the Algonquian Indian word for shoe. This combination of the u-shaped moc toe leather upper and the white crepe sole would become the iconic boot style for the Red Wing brand. It is one of the oldest Red Wing styles and a best-seller.

Oil-Tanned leather is a very durable and vivid leather.

Oil-Tanned Leather

S.B. Foot Tanning Co. is best known for oil-tanned leather which is used to build a variety of timeless Red Wing styles. This leather is water, stain and perspiration resistant, and has a more natural look and feel because less finishing materials have been applied, allowing its natural beauty to shine through. Oil-tanned leather is exceptionally durable and has been used to build countless work boots throughout Red Wing’s 108+ year history.

In order to build a Red Wing boot to an exact size and width, the boot is constructed around a shoe last.

STYLE NO. 875 : Classic Moc

A new pair of Red Wing Heritage boots should fit comfortably tight on your foot, with enough room to freely wiggle your toes. Over time the full grain leather upper, leather footboard and cork midsole mold to your feet, creating an enduring and customized fit over time with each wear.

The 875 is built using the No. 23 Last:

Was created in the 1950s and is Red Wing’s most iconic last
Includes extra room in the forefoot and instep for easy entry
Fits a variety of foot shapes
Fits ½ size large

Rated 5 out of 5Â by SJS14 It took a while but I had a few problems to start with as a few pairs I had kept having stitching come undone around the top but after finding the perfect pair I can now I haven't really taken them off since. Wear them anywhere through anything and they clean up perfect each time. Just took a few weeks to wear in but now they're so comfy. January 2, 2016

Rated 4 out of 5Â by David Solid boots but narrow I have not had this boot for long and it is still very stiff and narrow. I have a bit of a wide foot and it's tight around my toes and forefoot. I was told that they will eventually widen when broken in, is this true? And if so, how much wider can they become? December 28, 2015

Rated 2 out of 5Â by RedwingTaylor I want to love these boots Bought a pair of 875's not quite a year ago. Incredibly comfortable once I got them broken in (took about 2 weeks). Really loved the look of the boot. However, I'm really disappointed in how quickly the white "outsole" compressed, losing the thick proportions that drew me to the boot in the first place. It is simply too soft. I wear these boots to the office 5 days a week, but for $300 bucks, I expected them to last a little longer than they did. November 19, 2015

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Freq Work, motorcycle and a everyday best boot! I have 2 pairs of 875's and other than my vans for skateboarding these boots don't come off. 1st pair broke in pretty fast, second pair tried to test my patience. Only thing I don't know is why one pair has the red wing stamp on the side of the boot and the other pair doesn't have a stamp. November 11, 2015

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Samm202 Great boot... great for work in ALL conditions and good for leisure also. I have had two pairs of 875's now... my first I had for about 6 months and unfortunately spilt oil on them and ruined the colour... but my brother took them off my hands and still wears them (colour comes back after more wear)... then got a pair of 1917 and now I'm back onto these... Great boot and the only bit of the boot that wears noticeably is the sole. even then it takes about 1 year for the sole to wear down so the life in these boots is incredible...I wear these boots everyday, Awesome product!

Rated 5 out of 5Â by 67Jeff You simply can't go wrong buying a heritage Red Wing boot! The first pair of Red Wings I bought were the cheaper " work wear line" of boots. I found them uncomfortable, not lasting long and unknowingly not made in Red Wing MN or the USA for that matter. I then was introduced to the "heritage line" of boots by a older guy I worked with that has bought them since the late 60's. I have never looked back since. I'm on my fifth pair of heritage boots. Not because they wore out but because I loved them so much I wanted to try new styles. I've had my first pair of 875's resoled by Red Wing and it's like getting a new pair of boots with the worn in feel. They are going on 6 years and are my go to boot for work. I stand & work on a concreate floor for 9 hours a day and would never wear anything else. I also recommend getting the better upgraded insoles. Although pricey they are well worth the money. Yes the heritage line is pricey but considering you'll get years of comfortable wear out of the boots compared to the cheaper not made in USA "work line" of Red Wings I highly suggest the heritage line. I have tried 4 different styles of boots and love them all. They will last me for many years to come. They are well worth the price! December 20, 2015

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Oldpine09 Tough & Comfortable After years of buying "Made in Somewhere Else", I saved up and bought this style of Red Wing boots. It has been the best boot that I've owned. After the initial break in period, these fit and perform like a comfortable sneaker (speaking for myself). I have noticed that after owning them for a little over a year, and wearing them almost everyday for 8-12 hours, the soles will need to be refurbished. I consider that cost a part of my investment after throwing away money on cheap and uncomfortable shoes. This is my first pair of Red Wings and certainly not my last, they are, in my opinion, best money value over a long term. December 4, 2015

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Brad59 Top Notch In 1974 I bought a pair of these boots for $55 on sale. I was 17. I went hunting, walked everywhere, walked to swim practice at 5:30am and went to college wearing these boots, walked to practice at 5:30 wore out the soles and had a shoe repairman replace them with lugged vibrams and walked all over campus, a part time job as a dishwasher got so much grease on these boots they stayed waterproof for 4 years and they were molded to my feet. I never owned a car until I was 25. After college it was on to grad school and after 8 years and another pair of vibram soles and summer jobs as a furniture mover I traded them in for wing tips. I went everywhere in those boots and they never let me down. I wish to heck I had kept them just as a souvenir. Now I am almost 59 and I'm out of the office and I'm building an organic garden (Its a huge garden or even mini farm lol) and I think in retirement I'm going to be a market gardener. Never could sit still and I bought another pair of 877s and I will let you know in 8 years how far these have gone. The 2015 model is exactly the same. One caveat in 74' I only had one pair rain or shine and I think this time around I will have a 2d pair (6" for #2) to let the 1st one dry out bc even it rains I am not staying inside if there is work to be done. Living your dreams is easier in a good pair of boots. November 30, 2015
