That's funny 😂 I think you misread? 😅 The point of welted footwear is that they're resolable lol. I hope you do resole them!

I work for Redwing. Everything made in 2022 so far doesn't have the square on the tag that indicates it was made by the union workforce... in sorry man. It's true.

Not entirely true. They still make all of the supersoles, BRNR XPs, Dynaforces, Traction Treds, Nailseats, and (like you mentioned) Heritage boots in the USA.
That is a good majority, but we vote with our dollar, and the fact that they still offer made in USA boots is a good thing.
But yes, the marketing is slightly deceiving but not as bad as most work boot brands. (Chippewa and Brunts)

Dynaforces are waterproof. But all GYWed footwear js water resistant to some extent.

Supersoles are resolable(?) I work for Redwing and we send them in all the time for resoles. In fact, I just saw a fresh resole walk out yesterday on a pair of 2231s.
