View attachment 217403 Hey All!
So Im a member of several vintage and heritage boot Facebook groups. Recently have been seeing these pop up. Hell of a name they have. Named after their favorite part of the animal, the best parts for boot-making.
They are located in the Netherlands, built in Portugal. Ive been hearing such great feedback on the groups Im in. They say stitching/construction is better than a Wolverine or Red Wing, Thursday, Oak Street etc...and very comfortable out of the box.
The price point is whats holding me back on grabbing a pair at the moment. After conversion comes out to like 440 dollars. More than most "Heritage" makers or niche boot companies. But not nearly as much as most Whites, Nicks, Lofgrens, RMC, Role Club and those sorts.
Going to keep my eyes open for any up on Ebay or Grailed. If any boot collectors here have had any I would love to hear your feedback
here’s a link to check out their limited selection.

Yes, I've occasionally taken a look at their boots as well over the years and been somewhat tempted. Price wise, I think they are not a bad deal. They seem to me to be more in the class of White's, Viberg, etc than Red Wing, etc, since they are more handmade than the latter it seems. Not cheap, as you say, but I wouldn't feel cheated.
