Trooper Boots 8" (Saddle Tan)

Born out of the necessity for durable footwear for rugged terrains and challenging tasks, this plain toe boot is one of the oldest designs to ever exist, being a favorite among timber cruisers and outdoorsmen. It is one of the most classic designs crafted to endure the toughest conditions, and to stand the test of time. 

Made using stitch-down construction, the Trooper boot ensures exceptional durability and comfort. Made from 100% full-grain buffalo leather, the Trooper features a sturdy 8-inch shaft, offering unmatched support and protection.

Key features include a logger heel for stability, a veg-tan midsole for enhanced durability, and a gusseted tongue for water and dust protection. The detachable kilti adds versatility to the design, and every pair is handstitched and hand-lasted, taking over 20 hours to craft—embodying true heritage craftsmanship.
