Tan Ostrich Zipper Boots
4.8 / 5 (124 reviews)Product Details
Tan ostrich boots without the four figure price. The distinctive quill dimple of ostrich, embossed into full grain tan calf, on a clean zip up boot that pulls on in a second. Welted, made to order, and built the same way as every shoe we make, this is the exotic look done honestly and worn easily.
Ostrich texture, embossed calf
Genuine ostrich hide is beautiful and priced accordingly, usually several hundred dollars before anyone has made a boot from it. We take the other route, pressing the ostrich quill pattern into full grain calf, so you get the raised dimpled texture and the light catching character of ostrich with better everyday durability and a fraction of the cost. Honest about what it is, and better for it. See the rest of our exotic textures.
How these boots are built
A side zip for easy on and off, welted so the sole is stitched on and can be resoled, and a tan finish that works far more widely than most men expect. Each pair is made to order, so the width can be adjusted before the leather is cut. The zip means no laces to deal with and a close fit around the ankle.
Fit and sizing
True to size on our round last. The side zip gives a snug ankle, so if you have a higher instep let us know before we cut. Prefer this texture in a darker tone? We also make it in dark brown ostrich.
How to wear tan ostrich boots
Tan is more versatile than it looks. These sit well with denim, chinos and earth toned trousers, and the ostrich texture adds interest without shouting. Wear them as the piece that finishes an outfit rather than the piece that starts a conversation, though they will start a few anyway.
Care
Brush after wear and use a neutral or tan cream polish worked gently into the texture with a soft brush, since the raised pattern holds a little more dust than smooth calf. Rest a day between wears and keep them out of prolonged wet.
