  • EZINE Issue 55
    NEW ZEALAND LEATHER AND SHOE RESEARCH ASSOCIATION Boots are made with mythical leather Lauded for creating some of the most coveted boots and shoes anywhere, the brand John Lofgren is releasing a very unique military-style boot, made in collaboration with Oakland-based retailer Standard & Strange. The Combat Boot is a semi-brogue cap-toe style that stands at six inches. It’s tied tight with a swift combination of nickel eyelets and speed hooks, held together with Goodyear welt construction and grips Page 1/20 NEW ZEALAND LEATHER AND SHOE RESEARCH ASSOCIATION with Vibram soles. But the shining star of the show is the upper. Made from a rare ‘White Shadow’ shell cordovan from Japan’s famed Shinki tannery, it’s set apart from other shells thanks to its super thick waxy layer which gives it a soft white colour. Shell cordovan is already rare and is near-impossible to dye white, but this unicorn leather won’t keep its pristine shellac for long. The waxy layer will give way to the undyed shell cordovan beneath, revealing the natural flesh-tones of the hide which will patina further to deep brown tones. Availble now from the Stitchdown website. From gearpatrol.com Australian bushfires could affect thousands of cattle and sheep Over two million cattle and eight million sheep could be affected by the ongoing bushfires in Australia. It is estimated that more than eight million sheep and two million cattle could be caught up in the current bushfire crisis across the Australian states of New South Wales (NSW) and Victoria.
