ON FEB 27TH WE LAUNCHED A ONE OF A KIND BOOT, the "4331" IronRanger

One unique detail on the #4331 Riders Room Iron Ranger is the green Vibram sole, originally used on Red Wing Lineman boots back in 1956. It is unclear as to why the green colour was significant for the Lineman Boots.  One theory is that it was an indication that the sole was compounded with the EH (Electrical Hazard) insulation between you and the ground; if you happened to touch a live/hot wire, you wouldn’t get shocked. It gave wearers confidence that the shoe you were wearing was guaranteed to be safe whilst working up high lines.

Only 1200 pair available in Europe

Un particolare unico del #4331 Riders Room Iron Ranger è la suola verde Vibram, originariamente utilizzata sugli stivali Red Wing Lineman nel lontano 1956. Non è chiaro perché il colore verde fosse significativo per gli stivali Lineman. Una teoria è che fosse un'indicazione che la suola era composta con l'isolamento EH (Electrical Hazard) tra te e il terreno; se capitava di toccare un filo elettrico vivo/rovente, non saresti rimasto folgorato. Dava ai portatori la sicurezza che la scarpa che indossavano fosse garantita sicura durante il lavoro su linee alte.

Disponibili solo 1200 paia in Europa.
