As winter nears its end (it’s getting close to ending, right?), it may be time to do some maintenance or upgrade those work shoes or boots of yours after a harsh six months of hard work in the extreme elements. Luckily for you, Red Wing Heritage released a new foam leather cleaner and four new styles of Postman Oxford just in time for the spring season.

The newly vamped models — numbered 311731183119 and 3120 — come freshly updated with an Atlas Lite Tred outsole that provides a slimmer, sturdy, and stunning silhouette for a work boot. The Postman line was originally established in 1954 to deliver comfortability and durability to U.S. Postmen across the country.

Over 50 years later and the oxfords are still popular among working men who demand a comfortable shoe for those long days on their feet. Better yet, the boots are now offered in some of the best leathers Red Wing Heritage and partner S.B. Foot Tanning Company have to offer: Oxblood Mesa, Copper Rough & Tough, Charcoal Rough & Tough, and Hawthorne Muleskinner.

Enough talk, let’s take a peek at these beauts:

Red Wing Heritage also released a brand new Foam Leather Cleaner if your boots still have some life left in them, but need a little TLC. Cleaning your winter boots in the spring means you won’t have to scramble to polish and wax them when that first surprise snow hits. The revamped Red Wing cleaner uses foam to lift ground-in dirt and stains from the leather exterior in order to leave the ideal leather finish–supple and shiny. The cleaner is best suited for Red Wing Heritage leathers, but it’s not limited to them by any means (but spot test before applying anyway).

The new Postman Oxford styles ($259.99) and Foam Leather Cleaner ($13.99) are available for purchase at Redwingheritage.com.

Style is a bit of a Rorschach test. It can tell people around us who we are and what we think of ourselves. It can tell people more than we think. Some of us are mavericks, shirking the rules and subverting expectations at every turn, simply because we don't like to be put in boxes. Other groups of us like rules and we want the comfort that order and uniformity bring us. Then, even more of us are somewhere in the middle when it comes to men's style and crave order and uniformity to allow us to find our boundaries, only to shirk them later when we want to feel free. Men's fashion offers us all of the above. While some rules are made to be broken, others are tried-and-true staples to live on.

Rules vs. guidelines and how to break them
Never mix black and brown. Don't wear black dress shoes with a navy suit. Ditch the graphic tee. These are considered "rules of menswear," but they are more of guidelines. They help you look great while you learn what your style is or how to put together an outfit. Once you figure out how to do that, these rules tend to get in the way of evolving your style to be truly unique. The first thing you need to know if you're looking to revamp or upgrade your wardrobe is that guidelines can be adjusted, deviated from, or flat-out ignored. Rules, however, should be followed whenever possible. Don't worry; we took the time to collect the rules you should always follow in men's style.

Get the look: How to get Travis Kelce’s style (without a stylist)
It's more than khakis and flannels, guys
Travis Kelce

While Taylor Swift didn’t exactly put Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce on the map, she’s helped place his style in the spotlight. Recently, Kelce’s outfits have caught the eye of fashion enthusiasts enjoying his out-of-the-box outfits, which are a substantial departure from the typical styling we see from athletes. Instead of polished suits and sleek black pieces, Kelce rocks washed denim suits and sports the seasonal shawl cardigans that play into his more creative side. And while "Swifties" enjoy getting to know the Super Bowl champion’s style week after week, this isn’t new for Kelce.

A glance at Travis Kelce’s Instagram shows that this athlete is anything but your run-of-the-mill footballer. Besides his insane and established talent on the field, Kelce and his team have mastered the art of styling, whether it’s bold prints or bright colors off the field. Not afraid of making a statement, Kelce is the prime example of how to ditch the typical look of an athlete and have fun experimenting with fashion.
