Bishop Rustic Brown Pull-Up Boot

The Bishop is the heritage build in the line, and the spec reads like a boot from an older century. Rustic Brown pull-up leather — the kind that lightens where it flexes and darkens back with wear — over a 270-degree Goodyear welt. The insoles are Vachetta leather, and they form to your feet with wear, the old way, no foam involved. Reinforcement comes from leather too: the shank, the heel counter and the toe box all carry it. Underfoot sits a stacked leather heel at 25mm and a Knight anti-slip durable rubber outsole, so the traditional construction still grips a wet morning. The tongue is fully gusseted, sewn in at both sides, and the box includes two sets of laces — a Kevlar blend and a flat waxed cotton — so the boot changes register when you do. Pull-up leather is for people who want their boots to show a life. This one will.
