It's Friday and we're here with some behind the scenes shots from the production floor. We build our boots here in Eugene, Oregon and we're very proud of our process and the end result, and we think you will enjoy some behind the scenes action.
Before being cut the Teton Stag leather takes a moment of R&R.
A well rested skin that has been cut into uppers.
This beefy stack of bends is our midsole leather.
On a fully lined boot, the lining gets an application of glue before being sewn to the quarter.
Holes are punched through the upper leather before hardware is set.
And here's that next step, setting the speedhooks.
The 56 last really pairs well with double shot, a quite luxy boot in Oxblood.
From the previously mentioned bends we cut our midsoles.
A cavity created by welting, and this is filled with cork for a smooth, flat surface before applying the midsole.
Ready for the next step: midsole.
Snakebites and hints of Coyote in the background.
Placing the heel right before driving nails through it.
Testing. 1.. 2.. 3.. Testing.
On the heels of Coyote.
And now for the toes. These are unstructured, as we've tended to run with plain toe coyote variants in the past.
As always, boxed and ready to ship.
Hopefully this was an enjoyable insight into our process. Check back next week to see more.

Hey 👋 I love it. I love what you guys are doing. I’m actually wearing a pair of the black waxed flesh uplands right now at work. I was wondering, would you guys ever consider making like a Boondocker type boot with an unstructured Toe? Maybe in a rough out configuration or a smooth.
