Febo Lace-Up Boot for Men in Black Leather

A lace-up boot in vegetable-tanned leather with a tailored fastening. In place of metal eyelets, six loops cut from the leather itself: the lacing runs inside the profile and disappears from the side, so that nothing breaks the line of the boot. The leather is hand-dyed and behaves differently depending on how it is drawn over the last. At the toe, where the lasting pulls tighter, the surface stays close and luminous; over the shaft, worked softer, it takes natural creases from the first few wearings. It is the same leather: what changes is how the boot holds it. A metal side zip lets you put the boot on and take it off without undoing the laces, which stay tied exactly as you set them. The construction is Blake rapid: an exposed leather midsole with contrast stitching, on a lugged rubber outsole. The lining is natural leather. Vegetable tanning gives the black depth with wear, and the creases across the shaft settle in the way they do on a jacket worn often.
