The Rush St. Jodhpur Boot No. 8342

The Rush St. Jodhpur Boot No. 8342 defines functional elegance through a precise combination of textures and high-durability construction. This footwear option is designed for individuals who require a boot that performs as well as it appears, utilizing a distinct mix of materials to create a sophisticated profile suitable for diverse environments.

Material Composition and Design
The upper construction presents a deliberate contrast in textures. The font, strap, and back strap are crafted from Sand Luxe Suede, providing a matte finish and a soft, pliable feel. This is juxtaposed against the sides, which feature Cognac Croco Embossed Calf leather. This combination adds visual depth and structural rigidity where it is needed most. The color palette creates a cohesive earth-tone aesthetic, anchored by Old Gold buckles that secure the signature Jodhpur strap system. The lining consists of Beige Calf Leather, selected to maintain breathability and comfort during extended periods of wear.

Construction and Durability
Built to last, the Rush St. Jodhpur Boot utilizes Goodyear Welt construction. This method stitches the upper, insole, and sole together, creating a water-resistant seal and ensuring the boot retains its shape over time. The primary benefit of this construction is longevity; the sole can be replaced repeatedly, extending the lifespan of the boot significantly. Every pair is handcrafted in Spain, adhering to rigorous standards of artisan shoemaking.

Sole and Traction
Practicality is a core component of the design. The sole features Cognac Hand Painted Leather, offering a traditional, formal appearance. However, functionality is enhanced through the inclusion of Mountain Rubber Inserts. These inserts provide necessary traction and grip on various surfaces, addressing the common issue of slipping associated with pure leather soles. The outsole is kept natural to maintain a clean profile.

Customization
While the No. 8342 offers a specific, curated aesthetic, the design remains flexible. Robert August offers full customization options, allowing adjustments to materials and colors to meet specific preferences.
