Shop Moc Oxford - Copper Rough & Tough

The Shop Moc Oxford cuts the iconic Moc Toe silhouette low on Red Wing's No. 23 last, producing a relaxed oxford with unmistakable Red Wing character. It was designed for the shop floor — where a low cut offers more freedom of movement than a full boot, but the construction and leather must still meet the demands of a full day's hard use.

Copper Rough & Tough is a chrome-tanned leather with a textured, slightly matte surface that develops a burnished, reddish-copper patina with wear. It is more relaxed in character than the oil-tanned alternatives in the range — quick to soften, quick to develop tonal depth — and it works well across daily contexts that range from genuinely heavy use to a more dressed-down casual environment.

The Nitrile Cork crepe sole provides cushioning for full days on hard floors. Goodyear welted throughout; the oxford silhouette wears cleanly against slim trousers or jeans and can be resoled indefinitely through the life of the boot.
