This boot is made according to the Goodyear method. For this traditional and labour-intensive way of making shoes, the sole is built up piece by piece under the shoe without using any prefabricated materials. Goodyear-made shoes are sturdy, have a waterproof connection between sole and upper, can be repaired in a high-quality manner and, above all, have lots of character. In other words, Goodyear is the making method a shoemaker chooses for his own dressy shoes. The sole has a cobalt blue outsole made of durable TPU. The shoe comes with premium calf leather lining. This pair is made on a last with an H-width. Thus, the shoe has a slightly wider fit range which is suitable for a slightly wider foot. The black calf leather is finished with a beautiful and rich nap which is best maintained with Colonill's Carbon Wax Spray.
