In 1873, Charles Beckman journeyed from Germany to America aboard the S.S. Atlantic. Despite disaster, his story did not end there. This is his firsthand account of survival, perseverance, and dedication that inspired the founding of Red Wing Shoe Company in 1905. A legacy that holds true, 119 years later.
The Beckman is now available in three premium Excalibur leathers: Black Cherry, Black and Cigar. Crafted in Red Wing, MN to honor our founder, the Beckman is a sleek and sophisticated addition to our nail seat collection.
