Meet Kerouac Derby Boot: an elegant mid-cut boot in a new black and blue "Cassiopeia" handmade patina.
Kerouac features French box calf from Tanneries du Puy, an elongated vamp and our chiseled toe last, simplified punching on the facings, a Vibram Rubber Button Sole, and a shaft detailed with embroidery along the back heel.
The mid-cut of the Kerouac boot is the perfect height to be worn year-round and can easily be worn with dress and dress-casual attire.
