Built for heritage workwear style
These moc toe boots bring together the visual strength of American work boots with premium materials, structured construction, width options, and everyday comfort.
The rounded moc toe gives the boot a classic workwear silhouette that pairs naturally with denim, canvas, flannel, and rugged casual layers.
Tea-core cowhide starts clean and structured, then develops personal character through creasing, scuffing, and natural color variation over time.
A welted build gives the boots a durable foundation and allows future resoling when the outsole eventually wears down.
The self-developed lightweight rubber sole is designed for everyday movement, giving the boot a more wearable feel for city streets and casual use.
E and EE width options help more buyers find a better fit, especially those who need extra room through the forefoot or instep.
The Ortholite® Calfskin Insole supports long-wear comfort while keeping the interior feel more refined than a basic work boot.

Care, break-in & questions
Wear the boots for short periods at first so the leather, moc toe area, ankle shaft, and insole can begin shaping to your feet.
Wipe dust and dirt with a soft brush or cloth after wear. Avoid soaking the leather or drying the boots near direct heat.
Use a small amount of suitable leather conditioner when needed. Avoid over-conditioning if you want the tea-core leather to develop natural patina.
Keep the moc toe stitching and welt edge clean and dry. Goodyear welt construction allows future resoling by a skilled cobbler.
