The Dragon Boot from Taft clothing is an exemplary debut of Goodyear-welted style. It is handmade in Portugal offering the highest of quality and durability. Taft has ensured that no expense has been spared when crafting this boot. Sourcing the best leather in conjunction with the highest quality rubber sole unit possible means that this waterproof shoe can withstand a lot of punishment, whilst maintaining its classy style.
The waxed leather exterior is composed of vegetable-tanned, chromium-free, full-grain leathers. By partnering with the best mills and tanneries in the world, Taft are able to produce bold styles using the most unique leathers available.
Inside, the high quality persists as the boot is fully lined with soft calfskin leather, resulting in premium comfort. The fact that the shoe is fully lined, as opposed to partially, means that there is less “break in” time and a far more comfortable wear for the user.
What really sets this superbly crafted shoe apart from the rest is the care in construction; the leathers are painted, stained and burnished by hand which gives the Dragon Boot its unique design. It’s the freedom of the hand design that allows the team not to be limited by restraints and instead, be free to make bold stylistic choices and express their art through superior craftsmanship.
