About the design and specifications
Classic western side zip boots with a narrow silhouette.
The snug fit around the instep and heel provides exceptional comfort.
The GLEANERS ZIP uses a western work-type last and features an orthodox design with the vamp and waist leather sewn together, making it a side zip boot with a unique character that is a little different from the CASPER.
These boots have a high curved heel and a sharp silhouette that fits tightly to the foot, giving them an urban look.
Regarding the leather, this is water-dyed, unpolished crocodile leather developed in collaboration with Fujitoyo Kogyosho, an exotics specialist tannery that primarily produces crocodiles from salted rawhide, a process that is licensed to 20 companies worldwide, and currently only 5 companies in Japan.
Crocodile leather is tanned in the same way as cowhide leather, using chrome and synthetic tannins, but because the leather's fiber structure is so dense, the processing and dyeing process requires more than 50 special steps, and it takes 2 to 3 months non-stop to complete.
We offer the rarest and most special crocodile leather (2 per pair) in luxurious split crocodile backs.
We carefully selected specimens with a clear contrast in the scale pattern across the flank, and the finish is one that has been carefully crafted down to the smallest detail.
*As this is a special type of leather, we recommend that you check it out in person at the store before purchasing.
*These shoes are designed to be tight fitting. If you have a high instep, we recommend going up half a size.
