German Tan Oiled Nubuck:

Crafted from Tan Oiled Nubuck sourced from Germany. The leather features a warm tan color, a finely textured nubuck surface, and a distinctive oiled finish.

The combination of natural nubuck texture and an oil-rich finish creates a rugged yet refined appearance, complementing the traditional character of heritage service boots.

Natural variations in color and surface texture give each pair its own individual character. With regular wear, the leather gradually develops natural creases, subtle surface marks, and changes in texture, creating a distinctive appearance over time.

Classic Brogue CapToe Design:

The traditional cap-toe design is enhanced with decorative brogue perforations, combining classic dress shoe detailing with the rugged character of heritage service boots.

The additional leather toe panel creates a distinctive layered appearance, while the decorative perforations add visual depth and refinement to the forefoot.

The warm tan leather highlights the brogue detailing, creating a balance between traditional decorative elements and rugged workwear aesthetics.

Almond No.1 Last:

Built on the Almond No.1 Last, featuring a classic almond-shaped toe and balanced proportions.

Its traditional service boot silhouette combines a clean appearance with the practical character of heritage footwear.

Unstructured Toe Box:

The toe box features an unstructured construction without a rigid toe stiffener.

This allows the leather to flex naturally and gradually develop a softer, more relaxed appearance as the boots are worn.

Unlined Shaft & Calfskin Vamp Lining:

The unlined shaft preserves the natural flexibility and distinctive texture of the oiled nubuck leather, while full-grain calfskin lining in the vamp provides a smooth and comfortable interior.

Full Gusseted Tongue:

The full gusseted tongue is connected to the upper along both sides, providing additional coverage around the instep.

This construction helps reduce the entry of dust and debris while maintaining the traditional functional character of work boots.

Traditional Stitchdown Construction:

The boot features Stitchdown construction, with the upper leather turned outward and secured to the sole.

This construction creates a distinctive outward-turned leather profile and reflects the traditional craftsmanship associated with heritage work boots.

Leather Insole & Sound-Insulating Felt:

The boot features a fixed leather insole that forms part of the traditional construction.

Sound-insulating felt is used as the internal filling material.

An additional removable heel-area insole covers the internal construction nails. This protective layer also occupies some of the available internal space and contributes to the distinctive fit characteristics of the M-width version.

XS #1801 Rubber & Hemp Rope Outsole:

The XS #1801 outsole combines rubber and hemp rope materials, creating a distinctive layered appearance.

The rubber component provides practical traction and durability, while the hemp rope material adds texture and visual character to the traditional sole design.

Matching Rubber & Hemp Rope Heel:

The matching XS #1801 rubber and hemp rope heel complements the outsole, creating a consistent appearance throughout the sole construction.

Traditional All-Eyelet Lacing:

Eight pairs of eyelets provide a clean, uniform lace-up design without speed hooks.

This traditional configuration complements the decorative brogue detailing and preserves the classic appearance of heritage service boots.

Last: Almond No.1

Sizing System: EU (European Sizing)

Last Profile:

The Almond No.1 Last features a classic almond-shaped toe with balanced proportions and a traditional service boot silhouette.

Its moderately rounded forefoot combines a clean appearance with the practical character of heritage footwear.

Unstructured Toe Box:

This boot features an unstructured toe box without a rigid toe stiffener.

The leather can flex naturally and gradually develop a softer, more relaxed appearance with wear.

Special M-Width Construction:

Unlike conventional width classifications, the M-width version of this boot uses the Almond No.1 E-width last in the corresponding EU size.

Because of the Stitchdown construction, an additional removable heel-area insole is installed to cover the internal construction nails.

For example:

EU 42M = Almond No.1 EU 42E Last + Removable Heel-Area Nail-Covering Insole.

The additional insole occupies internal space, so the finished M-width boot does not have the same effective internal volume as a standard Almond No.1 E-width boot.

M width should therefore not be interpreted simply as a conventional width between D and E.

Sizing Recommendation:

We recommend starting with your regular LUOSJIET size based on our Cross-Brand Size Conversion Chart.

For customers using Nike or Adidas EU sizing as a reference, the standard starting conversion is approximately 1 EU size smaller.

For example:

Nike EU 43 ≈ LUOSJIET EU 42M.

However, the additional internal insole affects the available volume, and individual foot shape should always be considered.

We do not recommend automatically sizing down by an additional 0.5 EU for a snugger fit on this particular M-width construction.
