"The issue titled 'The Evolution of a Color' is dedicated to the release of the Red Wing Shoes 4558 Oro-Russet 8" Moc Toe. The "Irish Setter" was introduced by Red Wing Shoes in 1949, designed as an outdoors hunting boot. It was originally manufactured with "Russet Red" leather, but the leather on the 8" boot has changed over time. This Nouvelle de Nîmes explores the evolution of the Oro-Russet leather and traces back its roots and rich history."
