Product Description
Harking back to a time when a gentleman wore functional footwear witha touch of class, the Beckman collection is named after the founder of Red Wing Shoe Company, Mr. Charles Beckman. Operating a boot store in the heart of Red Wing town, Mr. Beckman navigated the muddy streets of the town as part of his daily routine.Of course, he wore sturdy boots that could be polished and cleaned to match his status as a successful mainstreet merchant. Today the Beckman Collection consists of classically styled, comfortable boots that make them the perfect choice for nearly any occassion. Made from the finest Featherstone Red Wing leather, these boots are built to impress. We're sure Mr. Beckman would agree.

| 8 of 8 people found the following review helpful  One of the nices boots I've ever owned!, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Red Wing Shoes Men's 6" Beckman Boot (Apparel) Very nice, high quality boots -- made the old fashion way! Could not find any errors / defects in craftsmanship. Stiching all looks good! Full grain leather, not too stiff, but quite thick and supple. I choose the Black Cherry color -- very, very pretty -- goes very well with Khaki colored pants, also jeans. In the dark, they almost look black, but in good light, the cherry color really comes through.As for the fit, I found the boots comfortable right out of box, a bit of heel slippage, but not overly so -- As these wouldn't be an everyday shoe for me, and I didn't want to go through a lengthy break in process, I ended up strapped them on, and then did some jumping jacks, lunges, and all other sorts of excercise with them on, oh, for about an hour, worked up quite the sweat, but hey, boots are now nice and borken in. Very comfortable, no blisters, break in was NOT bad (like I said, do some heavy wearing for about an hour or two, and you should be fine.)...

The break-in period has been painful but only lasted a week or so. A friend noted they do not ship with insoles so you'll have to buy those separately. You'll want a good pair of insoles from a hiking store not the pads you buy at the drug store.One warning: I noticed a huge number of black marks on the floors in my house and traced it to these boots! I'd give them 4 stars for style, 3 for comfort, and 4 for value. Update September 2009: These are by far the most uncomfortable shoes I've ever worn. I liken them to wearing a pair of cinder blocks. If I walk in them for any longer than 15 minutes I'm limping, and longer than that and I need a week to heal my ankles. Maybe I'm old (early 30s) but all the weight is at the bottom and there's a lot of it. I rarely walk in them because they are my motorcycle boots but recently I was given a pair of proper motorcycle boots as a...

I'm a 9 in a normal American shoe, but 9D would have been too big (and "heavy," as the earlier reviewer complains). It has been six months since I purchased mine and, so far, 8 1/2 has been perfect. About the sizing issue: My solution isn't original. Knowledgeable salespeople tend to recommend sizing down, as have many people in style forums for men. Since Red Wings are common and can be found even in mall stores, it's a good idea to try on a few pairs to see which feels best. If you're a net-only customer, a half size down tends to work. Of the three color options, the cherry red looks best to me with jeans. |
