Hale Tobacco Western Boot

The Hale takes the western formula and trims it to city height: a 10-inch shaft — shorter than its siblings — on a 1.5-inch stacked leather heel, in Tobacco rugged and resilient leather with a handstitched western pattern. The lower shaft makes this the easiest western to actually live in: less boot under the trouser, same silhouette where it counts. The pattern is stitched by hand. Premium leather outsoles run underneath, joined by Goodyear welt construction that keeps the boot resoleable indefinitely. Hardwearing steel shanks brace the foundation, cork-bed midsoles form to your feet with wear, and the interior is fully lined in supple glove leather with Poron antimicrobial shock-absorbing insoles. For a first western boot, this is the shape to start with — the proportions cooperate with an ordinary wardrobe, and the tobacco leather does the rest.
