The Kern Boot

Your Everyday Staple Boot

WATCH

CONSTRUCTION

The heritage constructed Kern boot features a 360° Goodyear welt from thick veg-tanned leather. Thanks to a Full-grain leather upper & a calfskin liner, the Kern boot is built to last, but can easily be worn in more casual environments as well.

Goodyear Welt

The welt is a strip of leather about an inch wide that connects the upper leather to the midsole. It is seen wrapping around the edge of the boot. This is the highest tier of shoemaking that allows boots to be easily resoled & fully rebuilt.

XL Extralight® Soles

XL EXTRALIGHT® soles are more comfortable, lighter, stronger and better performing than other products with the same mechanical properties. Weighing three times less than other materials, they are light, flexible and a natural shock absorber, for stress-free foot and back comfort.

FULL GRAIN UPPERS

This means the leather used on our boots has not been sanded, buffed, or treated in anyway to remove natural imperfections. The leather shows characteristics of the hide it came from and only gets better with age.

CALFSKIN LINING

This kind of leather is perfect for the inside of the boot. It is buttery smooth while still being durable and maintaining shape.
