Miner Boot

C.F. Stead Kudu — Brandy

Kudu leather does not pretend to be uniform. The open-pored, pebbled grain of African kudu hide carries the animal's own geography — variation in texture, depth, and pull-up that no cattle hide can replicate. Sourced from C.F. Stead of Leeds, built on Last 9013 with a 1/2 Goodyear welt double-stitched throughout, and finished with antique brass hardware. Dr. Sole underfoot. Genuine leather toe box and heel counter inside. This is a boot that begins interesting and only gets more so.

Upper Material

C.F. Stead Kudu — Full-Grain, Natural Tan

C.F. Stead has been tanning leather in Leeds since 1904. Their kudu is sourced from southern Africa — a hide distinguished by its open pore structure, natural grain irregularity, and a fiber density that responds to conditioner and wear in ways that smooth cattle leather cannot. No two kudu hides are identical: the mottled pull-up pattern visible across the upper is not a flaw or an inconsistency — it is the surface record of the animal, preserved through tanning. The Natural Tan colorway starts warm and honeyed, pulling darker at stress points and developing a patina that reads as lived-in from the first month of wear.

Construction

1/2 Goodyear Welt — Double Stitch Throughout

A 1/2 Goodyear welt runs the forefoot and waist of the boot, with a clean-sewn heel — a hybrid construction that combines the structural integrity of a Goodyear bond with a trimmer heel profile than a full-perimeter welt allows. The double stitch runs the entire welt length: two parallel rows of thread, each independently load-bearing, so that if one row wears through the other holds. This is a boot built to be resoled when the outsole wears, not when the construction gives way.

Hardware Detail

⚜️

Antique Brass — Eyelets & Speed Hooks

Antique brass hardware runs the full lacing column — flat eyelets at the lower rows, speed hooks from the ankle upward. Against the warm, mottled natural tan of kudu, the oxidized brass does not compete — it belongs. Both materials carry their age visibly: the kudu darkens unevenly, the brass develops depth without losing its warmth. Two things aging on the same terms.
