About this product
The Coupen Mid Cut boot really pushes the limits of what might be considered a "boot" firmly wedged somewhere between a derby shoe & a chukka boot. Standing at 5" tall (including the heel), these are a great daily driver, comfortable and easy to wear, while still retaining the chunky construction and inherent durability of a much heavier shoe.
They're made from Guidi's gray calfskin leather a supple, dusty black leather with a uniquely subtle texture and easy break-in. Guidi is one of the world's most famous and respected premium leather tanners, producing a selection of highly coveted horsehides and calfskin leathers with unique finishes at the very highest quality. Calfskin leather breaks in and ages differently to most standard cowhides, stretching less and developing tight, narrow creases as opposed to the larger and thicker lines formed by CXL.
The other details are equally serious, with heavy rolled edge at the ankle (finished with miniature pinking) that cradles and protects the parts of your human body that interface with these boots. Beneath the double midsole, these stand on a foil stamped cork outsole, with a Belgian cowhide and Iron toe tap screwed & sewn in at the front. The heel is custom, developed in house by The Boots Factory themselves.
These are built on the Rolling Dub Trio CBT02 Last. We suggest going down 1 full size from Brannock if you have average-to-narrow D width feet.
