"The essence of evolved engineer boots"

Due to their explosive success, engineer boots have evolved and are now popular worldwide.

In pursuit of a higher level of perfection, a new last was adopted and the upper was entirely newly produced.

The beautiful dress shoe-like shape is still intact.

The change can also be seen in the shape of the sharp outsole, which has elegant curves.

The sole is made using the Goodyear welt method.

By refining the process of how the upper is hung and the finishing stitches are added, the shoes are comfortable to wear and don't cause fatigue even when worn for long periods of time.

The upper is made from horsebutt leather, which is extracted from the buttocks of a horse and finished with dye and wax.

The original press buckle is a brass buckle limited to the first production run.

The last was created with the engineer boots of the 1940s and 1950s in mind.

In particular, the heel shape is a particular focus, with a small, three-dimensional shape and a hard, durable heel counter.

This attention to detail is what makes the shoes exceptionally comfortable to wear.

The core of the fit of these engineer boots is the inner arch area.

By pursuing the ultimate in suspension, we have achieved an unparalleled fit.

We believe that the shape of the instep and heel is everything when it comes to shoe fitting.

After studying American vintage patterns, the design was revised repeatedly from the previous model, resulting in the final product.

The patterns and stitching work are packed with unique ideas.

Classic stitching using No. 8 thread.

The toe, which is angled inward in the round shape, is incredibly beautiful, and the carefully designed shape gives a glimpse of elegance while still being tough.

A flat single welt is used, and the welt specifications have been thoroughly pursued.

I think the shaft of a good engineer boot is a forward lean.

The ergonomic design was gradually replaced by a leaning back posture due to poor productivity, but this design was inspired by good products from before.

The original press buckle is a brass buckle limited to the first production run.

The brass buckle is polished so that you can enjoy the changes it undergoes over time.

The midsole is made of comfortable Mexican oil bends.

A Builtlite separate sole is selected for the outsole.

One of our specialties is using Biltrite and Oil Bends, which are renowned for their history and quality.

Since it is dyed with genuine tanned horse leather, it has the texture and wrinkles that are unique to horse leather.

You can enjoy the changes in the color of the leather over time as you wear it.
