Red Wing Heritage will begin to tease ‘Same Old’ – an entirely upcycled limited collection and corresponding campaign. From pre-worn styles and Red Wing memorabilia – including a neon clock and collector's embossed denim jacket – to the TV and retro retail ads with some favorites stemming from the ‘70s and ‘80s, all creative has been pulled from Red Wing’s 117-year archive.
This is the second brand campaign in which Red Wing Heritage is leaning into its longevity and reclaiming independence from fast-fashion trends. The brand's first-ever global campaign was in 2021 with a message to live “Out of Fashion.”
Secondhand shoppers and brand fans can preview the first-ever Same Old collection between Sept 13 and 20.
