Stow Country Boot - Olivvia Classic Lightweight
About Stow
Stow is Tricker’s most iconic men’s boot. Made originally as a country boot, but now worn by men all around the world across fields and cities. The Stow Derby ankle boot is instantly recognisable for its brogue patterning synonymous to Tricker’s; however its strong, solid build and seven eyelets make it as recognisable, whilst by no means flashy. A half bellows tongue is folded and attached to the boot to provide a watertight seal, with the storm welt providing an additional watertight seal between the shoe's upper and sole.
About this Edition
After several seasons of working in partnership with Wet-Green (the creators of Olivenleder) and Weinheimer Tannery (who create our exclusive Olivvia Leather) we have now created our classic Black & Espresso Calf using the vegetable tanning process as part of our mission to ensure of sustainability. Our goal is to use this Leather across all of our shoes and boots which are classic black calf skin. This initial collection uses a Vibram Vi-Lite sole to give a rugged commando sole look whilst being extremely lightweight and cushioned.
Our ‘Lightweight’ sole construction has been used which entails removing the midsole or ‘through’ as it's traditionally known. This removes weight and adds flexibility without compromising on quality or durability.
Olivvia Leather is exclusive to Tricker’s and is tanned using Olive leaves, this is fully sustainable and every piece of waste in the process can go back into the land. You can rest assured that Olivvia is truly sustainable, exceeding every standard set by those who created the tanning liquor. Tricker’s is honoured to be the only shoemaker in the world using Olivvia leather.
Built to Last
As with all of our shoes and boots, each pair of Stow boots are handmade within our Northampton factory in England by craftsmen and women using traditional methods, and to the same exacting standards that first established our reputation. There are 260 processes used to make each pair from start to finish.
Our uncompromising standards of craftsmanship and use of honest materials, are values that have been preserved and developed through five generations and are observed as resolutely today as they were in 1829. When you choose Tricker’s, you never have to choose between practicality, durability and style.
Since 1989, Tricker's has held a Royal Warrant for shoe manufacturing awarded by His Royal Highness, The Prince of Wales.
About Stow
Stow is Tricker’s most iconic men’s boot. Made originally as a country boot, but now worn by men all around the world across fields and cities. The Stow Derby ankle boot is instantly recognisable for its brogue patterning synonymous to Tricker’s; with its strong, solid build and seven eyelets that make it a best selling Tricker's look.
A half bellows tongue is folded and attached to the boot to provide a watertight seal, with the storm welt providing an additional watertight seal between the shoe's upper and sole.
The lightweight Stow has the classic construction but sees the removal of the through or midsole - the result once paired with a leather sole - is a boot that has traditional country appeal without the weight.
Leather Information
This Lightweight Stow introduces Olivvia leather (Olivenleder®) - exclusive to Tricker's - tanned using an entirely organic brew created from olive leaves, a waste product of the olive oil industry and is truly sustainable.
Olivvia distinguishes itself through its soft and pleasant feel as well as its unique and natural smell of leather with a warm undertone of olives. Its low allergy risk makes it a suitable leather for sensitive customers.
Olivenleder® is an entirely organic brew and all waste can be used as a natural fertiliser including the leaves and leather shavings. The olive leaves are entirely sustainable and are a bi-product of the Olive Oil industry which are traditionally burnt, millions of which fall during the Olive harvest and are traditionally burnt.
A pair of Tricker's in black are undoubtedly the ultimate workhorse - suitable for work, evenings out, or weekend wear. Keep our black well maintained with polish and/or cream and they will just keep going and going ageing beautifully with every wear.
We advise using Black Polish to help maintain a pair of shoes in Black.
