Bristol Boot

The Byron Boot is built to go anywhere and do anything—a rugged essential with refined details. Inspired by motorcycle culture and elevated through Kennebec Handsewn’s shoemaking tradition, it embodies the balance of utility and sophistication.

We’ve crafted the uppers from Chromepak #2024 leather , a vegetable-tanned leather known for its durability, rich pull-up character, and striking finish. Each pair is shaped on our proprietary 115 Last , the same elegant last used for our dress shoes, offering superior fit and a silhouette that moves seamlessly between casual and refined.

Inside, the uppers are fully lined —a soft, supple lining that adds structure and resilience while maintaining comfort. Underfoot, a leather midsole, storm welt, and Vibram #430 mini-lug sole provide traction and weather resistance without sacrificing versatility.

Every pair is handcrafted in Brunswick, Maine , using Blake Welt Stitch construction —a method that ensures strength, flexibility, and longevity. With its heritage build, timeless styling, and rugged Chromepak leather, the Byron Boot is made to be lived in for years to come.
