Bringing back a Taft favorite.

Meet the Jaro Boot in Avalanche. People have been asking for an all-wool boot for the last two years and we finally have it. The Jaro Boot is a wool-upper captoe boot on a stacked rubber/leather sole. It comes with our extralight rubber commando sole to handle the wet weather. The eyelets and calfskin inner-lining provides the structure and support to the wool upper.

Product Details

FULL-GRAIN LEATHERS

We only use vegetable-tanned, chromium-free, full-grain leathers. These high-quality leathers make our shoes durable and comfortable. We partner with the best mills and tanneries in the world to produce bold styles using the most unique leathers in the world.

PAINTED BY HAND

Our leathers are painted, stained, and burnished by hand. Creating a unique shoe means not being limited on what we can design…finishing the shoes by hand gives us total freedom in our products and makes every single pair a unique piece of art.

HAND-CUT AND STITCHED

All of our patterns are cut by hand. We do not use molds or lasers to cut the leather. This takes much more time but it allows for only the best sections of a hide to be used.

SOFT CALFSKIN LINING

All of our shoes are fully-lined with soft calfskin leather, which means ultimate comfort. Most companies will only partially line their shoes, but we go the extra mile because it means a more comfortable shoe and less break-in time.

STACKED LEATHER SOLE

Stacked leather sole with rubber injections offers durability, comfort, and traction. Leather soles are universally recognized as the most luxurious and premium type of sole.

BLAKE-STITCHED

Our shoes feature Blake-stitched construction for longevity and comfort. It also allows for increased flexibility and a sleek silhouette. You will notice a big difference from normal, cemented shoes to a stitched pair of TAFT footwear. Get ready for comfort right out of the box.

Sizing Guide

All Taft shoes are design to match standard US dress shoe sizes. However, to ensure the perfect fit, please make sure:

All our shoes are standard D width. If you have wide feet, please select next size up.

If you wear in-between sizes, please size down for Taft boots and shoes.

Do not order your sneaker size. Please size down 0.5 - 1 US number.

In general, our shoes run slightly big. We suggest you size down if you are between sizes.

See our Measuring Guide .

The TAFT Quality Promise

Beautiful Shoes. Beautiful Prices.

Handmade in Europe by experienced artisans, every pair is made with precision, patience and decades of experience. We are advocates of ethical fashion.

In a world of poorly made shoes, TAFT products are built to last. Every pair is hand-cut and Blake-stitched using vegetable-tanned leathers from top European tanneries and mills. Your shoes will look beautiful right out of the box, and for years to come.

By selling exclusively online, we save our customers an average of $200 a pair. You can compare the quality of our shoes to $500 shoes you’d find sitting on the shelves at big box stores. From the beginning, we’ve wanted nothing more than to offer high quality at a lower price.

FAQ

What is my Taft shoe size?
Our shoes are made true to size. If you typically wear a size 9, you can order a size 9 in Taft shoes.

We only offer whole sizes...if you typically wear a half-size, we strongly recommend that you size down. For example, if you wear a size 10.5, we recommend that you size down to a 10.

Just Buy Them Already.

These bad boys are my favorite yet, so comfortable right out of the box. Taft really just keeps raising the bar, every pair I order has the same amazing quality. You don't need to wonder about these any longer, just buy them and love them forever already! I'm the furthest thing from a shoe person but somehow now I have 7 pairs... I'm going to have to start fighting my girlfriend for shoe space pretty soon here!
