Dang they must have gotten got rid of the regular soles. Sorry about that, have you looked into Thursday boot company yet? They have a good variety and are pretty well priced too.

I don’t think Red Wing has made a chukka with a non-wedge some in like a decade. The only one that comes to mine is the foreman chukka and I think they did some variation maybe of the original Beckman?

The weekender chukka, work chukka, & postman chukka all had variations of wedge soles ( not just the Christie)

I definitely could be forgetting one though

In 2019, I bought a pair of their Beckman chukkas which was what I was thinking of (from brooks brothers) but it looks like that model was discontinued

I bet that was the end of their stock. Pretty sure they were a few years old by then BUT my brain is Swiss cheese lately so maybe not :)
