Leather
WHANAM® Roughout Suede Leather

Lining
Italy 3S SELI® Vegetable Tanned Cowhide Lining

Shaping
Germany RHENOFLEX® 3155/3175 Forefoot and Heel Stiffeners
RHENOFLEX® reinforcement materials help shape and support the toe and heel structure of the boots. They improve form retention and contribute to a more stable, well-balanced fit over time. Origin: China.

Leather Focus
The Rugged Texture of WHANAM Roughout Suede
WHANAM Roughout Suede gives the Chasseur 8173 its textured, outdoor-inspired character. Compared with smooth leather, roughout suede feels more relaxed, more casual, and more naturally suited to denim, canvas layers, and heritage workwear outfits.

Textured Roughout Surface
The suede surface adds depth, softness, and a more rugged visual texture than smooth leather.
🥾
Built for Moc Toe Character
The roughout leather works naturally with the U-shaped moc toe seam and work boot profile.

Best with Dry-Care Habits
Regular brushing, careful drying, and suede-safe protection help preserve the texture over time.
Fit Guide
Standard Moc Toe Boot Fit with Custom Size Support
The Chasseur 8173 is built on a standard last and does not include E or EE width options. Because boots can feel roomier than sneakers, final sizing should be confirmed by measured foot length, especially for custom sizes.
