Spoke with Skip Horween the other day and he confirmed there was a little snafu in the shipping of the Whiskey and Natural Shells but that they are leaving this week so we can complete the specials on order in these colors.  We are also getting a few Unglazed Natural Shells for us to work with in the finishing room, which are unique in the market and can be very interesting for some small (or special) orders.  We have not worked with this before, but will make something of a test and post the results and info sometime late winter/early spring.  Finally, for my friend who has been waiting for enough Forest Green Shell Cordovan to make the Balmoral Boot,  hopefully we will get the last piece we need from Chicago to make this order!

We received today the latest stock delivery….the Balmoral Boot and the Split-toe Derby.  They look great!

I’ll update the proper pages in the next day or so, as we get these ready for sells….in the meantime, here are the newest Rider Boot items:

Balmoral Boot in Dark Cognac and #6 Shell Cordovan which will retail for $750.

Please take notice of the finishing on these boots….the factory has done a great job with some extra ‘antiquing’ per my request.  This is all done by hand, obviously, and takes a great deal of time – the results speak for themselves.

The Split-toe Derby in Dark Cognac and #8 Shell Cordovan will retail for $650 and features a handstitched vamp.
