Allen Boot

A more ruggedly built plain-toe service boot in Horween's waxed Natural Dublin — firmer and stiffer than the Grant Stone, built like an outdoor boot, that breaks in slowly and patinas beautifully with strong pull-up. Best worn casually with denim.

Extremely comfortable boot with excellent arch support and a narrow heel-to-wide ball ratio. The 618 last is the reviewer's best fitting last, and the waxed flesh leather is developing nice patina with wear.

Comfortable office boot with beautiful wax flesh patina development and excellent sole comfort, though stiff initially, the leather softens with body heat and becomes immediately comfortable after 15 minutes.

Excellent waxed flesh work boot that develops beautiful patina over time. Tough leather that resists wear well, showing rolls and scuffs that reveal the nappy rough-out base in brown undertone.
