help Red Wing Postman Oxford 101 FAQ

What makes the Red Wing Postman Oxford 101 different from other Red Wing shoes?

The Style 101 Postman Oxford was explicitly designed to meet the exact specifications of the United States Postal Service. It features a plain-toe design and a black cushion crepe outsole that provides all-day comfort for postal workers who walk for hours on end.

Are Red Wing Postman Oxford 101 shoes resoleable?

Yes, the Postman Oxford is built using Goodyear welt construction, meaning the upper and lower are stitched together rather than just glued. This allows a skilled cobbler to remove the crepe sole and attach a new one, significantly extending the lifespan of the shoe.

Do Red Wing Postman Oxfords run true to size?

Because they are built on Red Wing's number 8 last, they tend to fit a bit larger than standard dress shoes. Most buyers are advised to size down by half a size compared to their normal athletic shoe size to achieve a snug, comfortable fit for daily wear.

What type of leather is used on the Red Wing 101 Postman Oxford?

The shoe is crafted from Red Wing's signature black Atlas Tuff leather, which is highly durable and easy to maintain. To keep the smooth finish intact, you should regularly clean it with a damp cloth and apply a matching shoe polish.
