Griffin Plain Toe Boots - Brown Horsebutt

Rolling Dub Trio are produced in small batches from the Tokyo-based "The Boots Factory", the name of the production wing of RDT. Inspired by vintage styles, Rolling Dub Trio designs are unique, featuring inspired twists and always using the highest quality materials on the market. Utilizing old world construction methods, from two-row stitchdown to 360 flat welts, Rolling Dub Trio footwear is built not only to last, but to be fully rebuildable and recraftable over time. Featuring heavy, precise stitchwork and cleanly cut uppers - Rolling Dub Trio's footwear is as handsome as it is strong and comfortable. Built on the Rolling Dub Trio's J-Munson-N last, a modified Munson last with a D-width, standard fit, and a slightly tapered forefoot, the Griffin is an excellent option for those not interested in the heavy-duty perforated cap toe of the Roots Boots. The otherwise fairly similar silhouette is still a knockout, with a logger heel, sleek rounded toe, and low profile sole. Made from a sturdy Italian horsebutt, hand-selected and then given a final oil treatment in Japan before being cut and sewn into boots. The leather is quite stiff initially, but over time will relax as it breaks in and takes the shape of your foot. The expertly selected horsebutt will form appealing rolls as it wears in, differing from the more tight creases that aged cowhide will develop. They're finished with all brass hardware, a combination of 4 eyelets and 3 speed hooks, that close up with rawhide laces. They stand on custom "THE BOOTS FACTORY" rubber cork outsoles and heels, and feature a full kip leather lining. Built on Rolling Dub Trio's J-Munson-N last - we suggest going down 1 full size from Brannock. If you have particularly wide feet, you may only need to size down 0.5 from Brannock.
