HOW WE BUILD THEM

WELTED CONSTRUCTION

The welt is the leather strip that holds the upper to the sole. Stitched, not glued. The sole can be replaced when the upper still has life left.

LEATHER UPPER

Leather upper, leather lining. Calf, suede, or waxed leather depending on the boot. We do not line our boots in synthetic.

BRASS EYELETS

Solid brass hardware on every laced boot. They patina with wear. They do not flake.

ON THE BENCH

HERITAGE. RESTRAINED.

We make men's heritage chelsea boots and welted derbies in oxblood, cognac, and black calf. That is the catalog.

The leather is real. The construction is welted. The hardware is solid brass. The fit is honest. We do not pretend to be a $700 English bootmaker. We are a small American cobbler making proper boots at a fair price.

HERITAGE. RESTRAINED.
