You cannot survive winter with your attitude intact, as well as you can, wearing a pair of Sutherland Boots. Ask anyone. 100% Wool-lined genuine suede or full-grain bundu leather upper on a lightweight Freestyle Georgia sole(TPR).
TPR = non slip, rugged, light-weight rubber composite sole.
Genuine YKK zips fitted on the inside leg for easy-slip-on, robust use.
Leg Height: 250mm
Calf Measurement: 390mm circumference.
Please Note: The Sutherland boot is not a gum boot . With the application of the Freestyle Leather Protector it will make the suede more resistant to water, but not waterproof. Please allow the boots to dry out properly if they get wet.
Sustainably Handcrafted in Cape Town, South Africa.
I would change 2 things on these stunning boots. The soles could be more flexible and not as heavy. I put in an extra inner sole for a softer feel ass well as insulate from could coming underneath. The rest of the boot is soft and cosy. Except from the soles, these boots are really warm.
Not happy with the workmanship of this boot. I contacted the company by email with photos explaining my concern. The email that I eventually got back was not helpful. This was unfortunate as I was hoping to order a pair of hiking boots. I will not be ordering from Freestyle again any time soon. Figure out your kinks. You certainly don't listen to your customers.
The shoes are the best pair I've had so far. I always looked for shoes that won't press on my toes, I received exactly that. The shoes are a perfect fit, comfortable and stylish.
It was worth the wait. I'll buy from Freestyle any day.
