All-time original classic SA Hunter veldskoen. Crafted the old-fashioned way since 1985, with a strong insole and sole for extra wearability in the Freestyle tradition.
DESCRIPTION: Full grain premium leather uppers with a strong insole and a non-slip, durable ecologically-friendly TPR = Thermoplastic Rubber sole.
DETAILS: Fully lined and padded footbed. Sizing is usually on the large side and we recommend buying a size smaller than your normal size.
Ethically hand crafted in the Mother City, Cape Town.
I recently purchased the Freestyle Hunter Premium Leather Veldskoen, and all I can say is WOW. The craftsmanship, comfort and overall quality are on another level. I was so impressed that I’ve already bought another pair — the taupe boots from Overland — and once again, the leather and build quality completely exceeded my expectations.
These Freestyle boots are honestly so good that I’ll think twice before ever investing in another pair of CATs. The fit is perfect, the leather feels incredible, and they have that authentic, handcrafted feel you just don’t get everywhere.
Thank you, Freestyle SA, for an amazing product and service. I’m genuinely satisfied and impressed!

Best shoes I ever bought first ones I bought 15 years ago +- still going strong just need re sole
Lovely shoe for my husband, he cannot be happier, though the sizing was very far from standard sizing. My husband is a standard size 9 UK (size 43 EU) and we had to order a size 8, which fits perfect on his feet. Had a bit of trouble with the return but the problem was with the courier company and Freestyle made quick work of rectifying the issue.
Overall, we'll be happy to order from Freestyle in the future!
Had the plakkies for less than a week and the stitching on the left one came undone where the toe straps meet. Contacted Freestyle to request this be addressed/remedied and have received no feedback. Not happy with quality especially given the price paid.
