The Casper Side Zips feature a sleek wholecut silhouette crafted from unique black/green tea-core steerhide. This leather offers a refined look that transitions to a handsome green interior with wear. Enhanced with a polished brass zipper and custom pull tabs, they ensure both style and practicality. The comfortable kip lining and cork outsole provide support, making these boots suitable for extended wear. Finished with a 360-degree Goodyear welt, they epitomize high-quality craftsmanship and timeless design.
From the brand: The Casper Side Zips are an impressively sleek wholecut boot. With supremely minimal detailing on first glance, there's a lot more to these than is initially revealed. They're full of low key but interesting details - the polished brass zipper on the inner side of each shaft bears a subtle "Rolling Dub Trio" stamp, as does the metal toe tap that reinforces the front of the outsole.
The Black/Green tea-core steerhide is a unique leather even for us. Where other tea core leathers feature a black or dark exterior and natural, undyed core, this leather is dyed fully through with rich olive pigments, and is finished with an even darker solid black exterior. The end result is exactly what you'd expect - an all black leather that scuffs and wears down to a handsome green interior, a "green tea core" if you will.
Featuring a full kip lining, and standing on a cork outsole with a custom THE BOOTS FACTORY AR Heel, these are remarkably comfortable to wear even for extended periods of time. To help slide them on, custom woven pull tabs are sewn into the back of the shaft, and when it's time to pull them off, make sure the pull tab of the custom locking zipper is aligned and not at an angle, then pull straight down.
These are built on the Rolling Dub Trio CBT02 last. For average volume and D-width feet, we suggest choosing 1 full size smaller than your Brannock measurement. If you have particularly wide feet, you may only need to choose 0.5 size smaller than Brannock. If you have narrow or low volume feet, choose 1.5 sizes smaller than your Brannock size.
