Our shoes are based on the healthiest design ever created. From 1912 to 1970, it corrected and prevented almost all foot problems in the U.S. Military for millions of soldiers and now we're bringing back the earliest and most orthopedic generation of the 6 generations that were made. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. These could easily be the least expensive shoes you'll ever own, considering the cost of a single doctors visit today. And it's at half the price it would be if we wholesaled to stores. This is pure quality.

If you knew how much wisdom and understanding our pattern-maker had of anatomy and movement of the foot, who perfected each pattern for the shoe to last longer and if you comprehended how the shape of our shoe keeps the foot from stretching out from the inside, you would know why a 100 year warranty is the least of our concerns.

Ours is based on the 1st and 2nd of the 6 generations of the Munson Last that was created from 1908 to 1912 by Dr. Munson and his Shoe Board to fix all of the foot problems in the U.S. Military.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 12pt;\"\u003eBecause of its asymmetrical shape and the swing to one side, it was terribly difficult and time consuming to build and so the orthopedic nature of it was dumbed down for ease of manufacturing in the later generations.

These shoemakerse give OCD a good name, with their obsession to detail—perfect stitching, old world quality construction techniques by doing it right above all else.

That doesn't happen because of one or two design details. That is the result of the sum of dozens of small choices for the weight of the design in one area over another, the height and shape of the toe or the distance the sole sticks out from beneath the body. It was designed to be versatile, to be worn in battle and in ceremonies and nothing has changed. Most 'my first big boy starter' boots look great right out of the box, but are hard to keep looking great without a lot of effort. Ours were designed to look great right at the start and all the way up to the end.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp data-start=\"3303\" data-end=\"3625\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"\u003eThe English Tan color was not just painted on, but was the exact color we knew we wanted, one that would age with just the right rich tone and effect. The natural base color was expertly developed by tanning it with the exact right mix of two different tannins that age to give it a rich orangish red tone tan instead of a mustardish yellow tan.
