Description

At Baxter & Black, we proudly serve as an authorised Red Wing repairer. Every restoration we complete uses authentic Red Wing parts and follows the same trusted methods as the brand itself. Our cobblers approach each boot with precision and respect for its original character. We offer two options for resoling, the first, more affordable option is only if your stitching is good condition, which means you can keep the midsole and stitching. The second option means gently unpicking the welt stitches, adding a new midsole, and welt stitching through the original holes.

The Red Wing Traction Tred Sole stands as a benchmark in American boot design. It defines comfort, balance and everyday resilience with effortless style. At Baxter & Black, we admire its quiet confidence and practical beauty. Each step feels soft yet sure, with dependable grip on any surface. The Red Wing Traction Tred Sole is not just durable, it’s iconic. It represents generations of craftsmanship, hard work and understated design that built the Red Wing legacy.

From the first glance, this sole’s identity is unmistakable. With its clean wedge shape and lightweight construction, it delivers a distinctive blend of comfort and stability. Made from premium oil-resistant rubber, it grips firmly without the weight of a traditional lug sole. The Traction Tred Sole distributes pressure evenly, reducing fatigue and keeping you steady throughout long days. It pairs perfectly with classics like the Red Wing Moc Toe and Iron Ranger, yet complements countless other heritage styles. Whether walking on concrete, gravel or timber floors, it performs with quiet confidence. Every detail, from its shallow tread to its cushioned feel, works together to enhance balance, comfort and longevity. With the Traction Tred Sole, your boots gain renewed life, strength and timeless appeal.

Our Method

  1. To start, we remove the worn sole by carefully unpicking the welt stitch in order to preserve the original welt.
  2. Secondly, we re-cork if needed using a spreadable cork.
  3. We rough up the back of the Red Wing Traction Tred Sole to give good adhesion.
  4. We glue the new sole to the bottom of the shoe and trim.
  5. Carefully, we welt-stitch through the same holes to ensure the durability of the welt.
  6. Finally, we hand-trim and finish the edges to match the shoe’s original profile.
