The look is classic, but these boots do a bang up job of distinguishing themselves from the pack courtesy of the exceptional build quality and the top of the range materials that have been used in their crafting. The best part: these Taylor Stitch Chukka Boots in Whiskey Eagle are going to get better with each passing wear and develop a patina that tells a story of the adventures that you’ve worn them on.
Material Matters
These boots may look dressy, but safe to say, the gorgeous 4-oz leather doesn’t mind getting down to work and dirty when it has to. It boasts a beautiful “pull up” (colour migration when the leather is stretched), which means it will develop a tremendous amount of character after only a handful of wears. Whether you’re wearing these boots at the office or in the field, the Whiskey Eagle soars high above more one-dimensional leathers.
