The Rome Boot in Rich Brown Croco exists because not all croco is built on leather capable of carrying it. It begins in the hands of heritage Italian artisans, who select each hide based on density, grain integrity, and its ability to hold definition through years of wear — then finish it using techniques designed to preserve structure while allowing the material to develop depth over time.

The deep embossed croco pattern is then pressed directly into the leather while it’s still responsive, creating texture that lives within the material rather than sitting on the surface — keeping edges crisp and scales dimensional as the leather wears. As it ages, the embossing softens naturally, creating deeper dimension while maintaining its structure.

Crafted with Blake stitch construction, a hand-cut leather welt, and a lug outsole with rubber pods to increase traction, this boot reflects the signature Taft commitment to craftsmanship—built for enduring style, confident comfort, and years of wear.

Inside, a custom padded insole—German engineered for advanced climate control—actively wicks away moisture and features an integrated anti-microbial compound to maintain freshness throughout the day. Designed for performance beneath the surface, it keeps you dry, ventilated, and consistently comfortable from first step to last

This is the version of croco chosen by men who understand materials, not just fashion. And prefer presence without performance.

As part of our commitment to honoring craftsmanship, we partner with Italian artisans who bring generations of shoemaking expertise to their work. Italy has long been recognized as one of the world’s great centers of footwear production, where tradition, precision, and an obsession with detail continue to shape the craft. We bring that heritage to life through careful construction, thoughtful finishing, and an uncompromising approach to quality. The result is footwear that feels refined from the first wear and develops even more character over time.

Rome in suede

"Wow! What has happened! I used to love so many of your shoes, this pales by comparison to the Dylan in salt, which I own and still love years later. But I must say out of my Dylan, Paris, Rome and jack . Rome is my least favorite. and this would be no exception, it looks like a farmers boot! And I don’t work on a farm, nor do I live on one. It just looks old and tired. And this I say after you raised prices by 90. 00 last year. This was not due to tariffs as the tariffs were 15% I am really disappointed with what I have seen in the last year from Taft, you used to be my first go to."
