—Made on the MICHAEL LAST
Round & roomy toe box, slightly increased width, medium arch support
Designed in collaboration with Michael James, Master Last-maker in Northampton, England. Anglo-inspired; distinctly Lennertson.
+/- 5 uur dragen. Dankzij de traditionele Goodyear welt constructie en stevige rubberen zolen hebben deze boots wat inlooptijd nodig. Maar dat is net een voordeel: meer duurzaamheid en comfort dat alleen maar beter wordt naarmate je ze draagt.

Een wild leer — letterlijk.
Omdat de kudu een wild dier is, vertoont het leer natuurlijke littekens, sporen en nerfvariaties die elk paar onmiskenbaar uniek maken.
De kleur: ‘Clover’
Clover heeft een grijze basis met tan-, blauwe en olijfkleurige ondertonen.
We combineerden dit met onze kenmerkende ‘Antique Auburn’ welt: donkerbruin bovenaan, rijk roodbruin aan de zijkant.
Charles F Stead: looierij met traditie
Sinds 1904 staat de in Leeds gevestigde looierij Charles F. Stead bekend om haar karaktervolle leersoorten. Hun kudu-leer wordt bijzonder gewaardeerd om zijn sterkte en natuurlijke karakter — met littekens, sporen en nerf die elke huid uniek maken.
The Place & People
Made in Europe from sketchbook to stitch. The Chieftain is thoughtfully designed in Belgium and skillfully built in Portugal by craftspeople who've perfected their trade over generations.
FAQ
We're a Belgian company based in the North-Eastern Limburg province. Here we do our everyday work like designing shoes and communicating with customers.
Lennertson is also made up of the countless people who contribute to our mission. Be it our lastmaker in England, our craftspeople in Spain and Portugal, or you who wears our shoes anywhere in the world.
We grew up in working-class families and greatly admire the men and women who make our footwear. Fair & safe labor conditions are essential to us. We produce locally within the European Union, where the highest standards of these laws and rights are applied. We choose to only collaborate with companies that share our values. Being close allows us to visit frequently and maintain a close relationship with all our partners.
We source our leather traditional tanneries in Europe. European tanneries are strictly regulated by the European Environmental Agency, resulting in far more environmentally friendly tanning practices than in many other parts of the world. We only use leathers that are a side-product of the meat industry.
As part of our design process, we’re always discovering unique leathers and tanneries.
Here are some we frequently work with: Puccini (Italy), Boaventura (Portugal), CF Stead (UK), Annonay (France), Oehler (Germany), Dafar (Serbia), Sciarada (Italy), and more.
Our rubber soles are made by local European, family-run businesses as well.
Regarding footwear sustainability, construction methods are equally important to sourcing. Our shoes are Goodyear welted, with stitched soles instead of glued. This results in far more sustainable shoes that will last you a very long time and are endlessly repairable.
This question isn't actually asked frequently because customers fall in love with our shoes from the moment they open the box.
Lennertson shoes and boots are made in a traditional and artisanal way.
The process involves a lot of handcraft, and when machines are used, it's always a person's hand guiding the shoe. As such, it's perfectly possible for you to see slight imperfections: two stitches that are not the exact same size, slight color variations, etc.
A computer makes things perfect. A human makes things with passion, care, and unique character. That's how we see it, and we believe you will too.
We also choose to work with 'natural leathers'—uncorrected grain that isn't overly processed or coated. Its surface structure should not be perfectly uniform; but may include natural blemishes and marks reflecting its origins. Our leathers look and feel authentic because they are—made from an animal's skin.
