Red Wing Tradeswoman boot: Designed by women for women

Tradeswoman offers women in the trades enhanced comfort and fit

product innovations
December 19, 2019

Red Wing Shoe Company has unveiled the Tradeswoman (models 2328, 2329, 2345, 2346), a new work boot designed for women in the trades, available now. Designed for women in construction, light manufacturing and warehouse or distribution industries, Tradeswoman work boots provide a purpose-built fit specifically crafted for female workers’ feet to provide them all-day safety and comfort on the job.

"We’ve heard from our female customers about how challenging it can be to find a work boot that fits," said Kristin Hamilton, senior product merchandising manager at Red Wing Shoe Company. “By nature, a woman's foot shape, from her arch support to her heel, is very different than a man’s foot, which is why our product team designed the Tradeswoman family. This ensures a comfortable fit for our female customers, and like our other work boots, the Tradeswoman is durable and meets ASTM safety standards.”

Key features of the Tradeswoman boot include:

  • Comfort: The Tradeswoman features an oblique toe shape to ensure extra toe space, with a dual density footbed and PU midsole for added underfoot comfort.
  • Best-in-class slip resistance: The Tradeswoman also features outstanding traction and durability, with a VersaTrax rubber outsole in an innovative lug design.
  • Safety: Available with additional safety technologies, including resistance to electrical hazards, non-metallic toe and waterproofing. 
  • Style: Offered in two 6-inch models and one hiker-inspired style. 
  • Leather: Premium waterproof leather in black, brown or gray. 

The Tradeswoman family is available at Red Wing stores nationwide. To find your nearest retailer, visit www.redwingshoes.com.

In addition, companies interested in Tradeswoman or any of Red Wing’s safety workwear for their employees can easily manage the purchase process by participating in Red Wing for Business a platform that combines the digital and retail experiences. This simplified purchasing process gives workers access to digital vouchers that they can use to purchase more than 250 industry-specific designs at any Red Wing retail store, on-site mobile shoe store or authorized Red Wing retailer. Red Wing for Business reduces administration time, mitigates risks by assuring the right shoe is selected for the job and eliminates costly waste and inaccuracies.
