FOOTWEAR Styles

Grizzly Boot

Classic moccasin construction in a full-height boot. Interior is lined with luxurious calf – going sockless is definitely an option. The leather footbed has a full length layer of memory foam for supreme comfort and also serves as an effective insulation layer. Six lacquered eyelets with a 63” rawhide lace. Instead of a tongue, a deerskin bellows keeps out debris and maintains warmth without adding bulk.

For colder climes, this boot is available with natural full-grain sheepskin lining.

Available with either a handsewn waterproof natural crepe rubber outsole or a thick Chromepak leather bottom. Either is appropriate for outdoor use, but the former more suitable for the wet. Both are replaceable for extended wear and value.

Tracker Boot

Virtuoso handsewn moccasin construction is the only way to create this over-the-ankle boot using thick, yet supple, Chromepak leather; a most durable pair of boots. Rawhide laces, no eyelets – minimalist but awfully nice and rugged.

Available with a leather or crepe rubber bottom – both appropriate for outdoor use, but the crepe is more suitable for the wet. Both are replaceable for extended wear and value.

Ring Boot

A statement moccasin if there ever was one, from the supple Chromepak leathers to the rugged handsewn upper to the cinch strap closure that passes through welded alloy rings.

You can also order it in lighter weight leathers for an “instant break-in” if you don’t have the time or inclination to wear them in just right. These are lined with glove leather for extra comfort.

Available with a Chromepak leather or handsewn crepe bottom – both appropriate for outdoor use, but the crepe is more suitable for the wet. Both are replaceable for extended wear and value.

A Note About Soles

You will see five different soles that Quoddy uses on our shoes and boots.

Crepe: Our crepe soles are cut from natural latex crepe rubber that is derived from the Brazilian Hevea tree.  We then handsew the rubber onto the upper of the boot.

Chromepak: Our rugged leather sole is cut from a hefty side of 14 oz leather with origins are in the saddle trade.  Note:  This is very durable – think of how many dress shoes you have with leather soles that are much less hefty than this – these pups last a long time.  Plus, we can resole your shoes ad infinitum.  Not recommended for long range exposure to wet conditions of course (though those who treat them with our Waterproofer would beg to differ).

Stitch-On Soles: Our molded soles come in two, soon to be three, styles.  We have a traditional low profile boat sole with siping for wet traction.  A new Vibram sole for rugged utility.  And our tried-and-true camp sole for casual versatility.  All of these are low profile and flexible to maintain that moccasin feel that connects you to the earth.  All three are also replaceable – they are held on by rugged stitching, not glue.  You’ll never get a “flapper” sole unless you cut those stitches up.

NOTE: Vibram sole available August 2010

Deck Boot

When the weather calls for something more substantial than a boat shoe, but with the same lightweight and nimble feel, this is your boot. Water-resistant Horween Chromexcel leather with six lacquered eyelets, 63” rawhide lace. Instead of a tongue, a deerskin bellows keeps out debris and maintains warmth without adding bulk. Lined below decks with glove leather.

Stitched-on boat sole with siping for traction in the wet; also available with our camp sole for those inclined more toward land. Both are replaceable for extended wear and value.

Like the boats in Downeast Maine, this one is built to last.
