Our Van Cleef series has been our top-selling collaboration with Wesco for several years now. Using undyed vegetable tanned leather - these boots will age dramatically with wear as they darken by exposure to UV light and absorb oils and dirt.

Based on a 1930s style engineer boot from the Wesco archives, the Van Cleef series all feature triple needle stitching on the vamp and heel counter, double needle stitching on the top of the shaft, and our favorite - vee stitching on the back stays. Nordic brass buckles hold the straps together atop a Vibram 700 outsole and heel. Unlike the prior two editions, this one is a full 11” height.

The Natural Horween Essex leather needs no break-in and is instantly comfortable on the foot. It will still take on patina and character in the same as the prior ways. The shaft diameter has been narrowed by 1.5 inches to allow a snugger fit and denims with slim leg openings will fit easily over the boot.

NOTE: This leather is undyed - there will be natural variations in color, texture and grain, and there may be small marks, nicks, spots on the boots which we consider normal.

These boots run 1 width narrow, sizing up to an E width is recommended. Contact us for help with sizing on these boots.

Other and custom sizes available - choose other size/custom and email us to finalize the details.
