STYLE NO. 8857 : 6-inch Moc
The 8857 Classic Moc in Loden Abilene leather features the iconic Traction Tred outsole, all-around Goodyear welt, and Puritan triple stitch construction. The Loden Abilene is a dry-tanned roughout leather. Roughout leather is the reverse side of full grain, making it an extremely durable, low-maintenance leather, providing a unique suede-like finish.
THE HISTORY BEHIND THE STYLE
We began making moc-toe boots in the 1950s for sportsmen. Farm and factory workers quickly took to the boots for their all-day comfort and lasting durability. The crescent-shaped toe stitching is inspired by the construction of moccasins originally worn by the North American Algonquin Indians. Our Classic Moc Toes have since become a legend.
Roughout leather is a reverse suede leather made in our S.B. Foot tannery.
Roughout Leather
Roughout leather is created using a reverse-suede technique at our very own S.B. Foot Tanning Co. While most tanneries split, thin and weaken the hide to create the rough suede surface, we simply use the other side of the hide. By doing so, we avoid splitting or thinning our full-grain hides. This makes our Roughout leather just as strong and durable as our other leathers.

In order to build a Red Wing boot to an exact size and width, the boot is constructed around a shoe last.
STYLE NO. 8857 : 6-inch 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 8857 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
- Most customers buy Red Wing Heritage footwear 1/2 size smaller than their normal size
- Trying on Red Wing Heritage footwear in a store is recommended to get the perfect fit
