Grassmere Country Boot – Brown Zug Grain

Grassmere Country Boot – Brown Zug Grain

The Grassmere is a civilized country boot that can cope with more rugged conditions. 

The Grassmere is a popular choice amongst farmers. This toe capped 7 eyelet Derby ankle boot has a half bellows tongue and storm welt to keep you warm and dry, together with leather uppers and leather linings for comfort and a Ridgeway rubber stitched sole for a firmer grip. Please note this is a 6 fitting. 

The Leather

Zug grain grain leather is a type of leather that is characterized by its distinctive pebbled texture. It is made from high-quality cowhide and is typically embossed with a pattern that resembles small pebbles or stones. The pattern is achieved through a process of stamping the leather with a heavy roller that has a raised pattern on its surface. Scotch grain leather is known for its durability and water resistance, which makes it a popular choice for our shoes and boots and the outdoors. This leather is typically thicker than standard calf leather.

The Fit

This last has been used for decades. It is part of our history and character as England’s oldest shoe manufacturer.

The size (length fitting) of Tricker’s footwear made on this last (4497s 6 fitting) is wider than our standard 5 fitting last. We recommend dropping at least a half size from your regular UK size. If you are unsure of your UK size, use our size guide to convert your known size to a UK size.

The Sole

The Commando Sole – Our original country boot sole and the choice of adventurers and military throughout history. These full rubber soles take a bit of breaking in, but they provide excellent durability and grip across all terrain – particularly in the countryside. Tricker’s commando soles are supplied by ITSHIDE, a Northamptonshire-based producer with over 150 years of experience producing high-quality raw materials for the boot and shoe trade.
