The previous local distributor of Red Wing deals in hardware so in the past, we were able to get the modern safety boots and the heritage line. We could buy directly from the distributor at their showroom in an industrial building. My understanding from that distributor is that they took the distributorship for the work boots/safety boots. The distributor wasn't very keen on promoting the Heritage line in stead the fashion retailers would decide which Heritage line model to order and there was never enough demand to persuade Red Wing to produce some special models or reproduce some discontinued model. The distributorship has changed hands since 2018 or 2019 and there is now an exclusive Red Wing store in a premium shopping mall.
