About Bootmaker
About Bootmaker
All Iron Boots are fully handmade by our bootmaker Kai and 5 teammates together in a small studio at Guangzhou. They are built in handwelt or hand stitchdown, with channelled insole construction, which are stronger and last longer than normal Goodyear welted shoes/boots made by machines. Each pair is 100% hand welted, hand last, hand bottomed, and also hand-sewn outsole stitch.

Leather
Leather
This grey SB Foot leather is a full grain pull up leather, with a thickness of 2.2-2.4mm (5-6oz). Very well oiled and waxed during the tanning process, with a delicate and rich color-changing effect on the surface. It's thick, but still feels relatively soft. So won't be hard to break in, if any break in is needed.
Its grey color is also very special, not sth you can find all the time. The quality and density of the fiber is damn good and even, so very low possibility for loose grain or unmatched grain.

Lead Time
Lead Time
Current lead time is around 5 months (orders from Mar. - Oct.)
Due to Lunar New Year holiday break and end of year surge, orders from Nov. - Feb. can take around 6, or even 9 months to finish.
FYI, lead time is just an estimate, which means the actual lead time can be shorter or longer. We don't accept cancel / refund for MTO orders, even it takes longer than the estimated lead time. But if you have already waited more than the estimated lead time, you can reach out to us. We will investigate what has happened, and try everything we can to make things right.
Unfortunately it's just the natural of how customized stuff is made in a small workshop. If that's a deal breaker, you can take a look of our Ready To Wear collection instead.
