Red Wing Shoes have compiled this impressive short video featuring the Puritan sewing machine, often referred to as the work horse of the shoe factory. For more than fifty years, Red Wing has relied on these machines to create its iconic triple stitch detail, which ensures the strength and durability of Red Wing Heritage boots and shoes.

“There’s a lot of history in those machines. You’re not the first and you probably won’t be the last one to sit there,” says Kathy Martindale, a Puritan Trainer at Red Wing. ”We want to continue to use Puritans because we keep using what works.”
