As the leading provider of safety footwear, trust that you count on Red Wing Shoes for moments that require you to get down and dirty in the mud, or just about any difficult work environments. Made for consumers who are all about hardwearing footwear in industries like oil and gas, Red Wing has been producing full personal protective equipment from footwear to coveralls that not only have superb durability, but has exceeded standards – the main creditor to its success even til today as anyone who has been to the old Red Wing Shoe Store at Pertama Complex would know.

In an attempt to expand its market in the Southeast Asian region, Red Wing’s long-established association with Leeden NOX – distribution partner for over four decades – has resulted in the first ever brick-and-mortar Red Wing store in Malaysia. Strategically located in Avenue K, the flagship store will offer Red Wing’s line of performance hiking boots and shoes, alongside Vasque and its Heritage collection of handcrafted lifestyle footwear.

The energy industry isn’t just physically demanding, it also comes with risks that are life-threatening. To bring its customers complete satisfaction, Red Wing ensures that its products serve hardworking people by outsmarting and outlasting the toughest working conditions you can imagine. This brand new customised shopping experience by Red Wing benefits businesses that seek protection for their employees, as well as handy individuals who are looking for outstanding safety gears like flame resistant workwear, gloves, safety glasses, and many other protective equipment. Born in 1905, Red Wing Shoes has been spreading its footprints from the U.S to the global market via loyal customers who have been rocking their Red Wings loud and proud.

“From oil rigs to shipping docks, factory floors to refineries, we’ve supported Malaysian oil and gas workers for over three decades through our distribution services, and we’re now excited to offer those workwear products as well as new offerings for lifestyle and hiking footwear through our Kuala Lumpur retail store location,” said Paul Olson, managing director of the eastern hemisphere for Red Wing.

With leather chairs, brick walls, custom fixtures, and a state-of-the-art sound system, Red Wing’s first physical shop in Kuala Lumpur welcomes guests with quality interior akin to their shoes. No prior knowledge is needed thanks to Red Wing’s customers service that makes sure every customer walks out with guidance on how to take care of their product, all the while connecting visitors to the brand’s core principles of safety, performance, and service. There’s more to it than what we’ve mentioned, the signature grand store features the footwear industry’s premier foot-scanning technology that allows you to instantaneously identify your arch type, foot size, and pressure points to make sure you get the best shoes that hug your feet at all the right places.
