ROOTS
Posted by CRAFTBANK- THE BOOTS SHOP on


Among the many standard items of ROLLING DUB TRIO
The Boots Factory (BF) series ROOTS is a product number that features exceptional craftsmen.
The current lineup is as follows:
Straight tip boots 6inch "ROOTS"
Straight tip boots 8.5inch " ROOTS 8.5"
Straight tip shoes "ROOTS LOW"
Engineer Boots 11inch "ROOTS ENGINEER"
(Loafers and 8.5 inch engineer boots are currently on hiatus)

These models are made in Japan and handmade every day at our own factory, THE BOOTS FACTORY.
The leather used is thick horsebutt leather.
In recent years, it has become more common among Japanese boot manufacturers, so many people may already know about it.
This is high-quality horse leather tanned by Mariam in Italy and finished in Japan.
Made from leather from the horse's buttocks, it has a high fiber density, is thick, flexible and durable.
Unlike cordovan, this leather is relatively resistant to rain and shows outstanding changes over time.
In particular, the ROLLING DUB TRIO is finished with a brown core, so you can enjoy the change from black over time.

As for the wooden last, we modified the J-MUNSUN wooden last used by the US Army during World War II to suit Asians.
Although the toe area is voluminous, the size is not as big as it looks, and the tight waist and arch support create a comfortable fit that conforms to your feet.

The manufacturing method is the classic stitch-down method, which highlights the skill of the artisan.
It features the factory's unique tack and beautiful heel curve.
In particular, the way the heel is ground (how the grinder is applied and the finishing angle) is packed with considerable attention to detail, so be sure to pay attention to it.

The sole is equipped with an original cork rubber sole.
The name gives the impression that the sole is a little soft, but it is actually very sturdy and has good grip.
To be honest, I think you'll be fine without resoling for at least five years.
It's been a while since it was released, but I remember there are still only two people in Allusol.

I'm sure many of you have already seen it, but I've also uploaded the making-of video for ROOTS, so please take a look.
And the size that everyone is wondering about.
In terms of last, I think it feels a little tighter than the A model shoes represented by COUPEN, CASPER, STAN, etc.
However, I have set it so that it does not require changing the size.
If you have a wide foot (EE, EEE, etc.) and a high arch, we recommend going up half a size from item A.
Also, compared to boots from other manufacturers,
For example, if you wear a size US8 from Red Wing, Danner, etc., you can wear a size US7H or 8.
We always have samples of all items available in store, so we can also suggest sizes when you visit.
Please feel free to contact us.
