Clinch George Boots CN-Standard Waxed Uneven Horse Suede Black
Clinch by Brass Tokyo
Clinch has become world-renowned for the artisanal quality with which founder Minoru Matsuura designs and crafts each style in the company's lineup.
Built around unique wooden lasts carved by hand, Clinch aims to recreate the build and style of 1940's boots from the ground up. All components are carefully sourced to create a boot that stands apart.
The George Boots from Clinch are based on boots issued to the British Army and intentionally made with laces higher so they are hidden when worn with trousers. Similar in style to the classic Chukka, these have been elevated in Japan to the highest standards that we've come accustomed to with Clinch.
The CN Standard Last which the George Boots are built on have a beautifully sculpted shape, arguably the most distinctive and desired detail of this hand-carved wooden last created by Clinch. The fit is snug, contouring to the foot, with the intent of the leather moulding to the shape of your foot over time. The all-important toe box style is un-structured, and reasonably flat keeping its shape without flattening out too much, and the vamp fits closely to the instep. We find that the CN last can easily accommodate a US D-width fitting and most foot-shapes.
These feature a logger heel, using a reproduction 'O'Sullivan's' Heel Block (O'Sullivan's was an American manufacturer of heels and patented this style in 1899). The vamp front features a unique crease line through the centre, something unique to Clinch as a producer.
This pair uses an uneven horse suede sourced and hand selected from a tannery in Europe. The waxed uneven horse suede used by Clinch is full of character while the tanning processes involve drying and ageing stages that take four to six months that end up producing leathers with a unique texture and grain.
Finished with a three hole eyelet and army green pull tab to the heel.
