Genuine
Full Quill Ostrich Boots. This pair of boots is worth
the wait. After all, you've waited till now to get a
pair! And this is the best price ever! Enjoy the
prestige and the long lasting comfort of Ostrich Skin
boots. The quill marks are from the removal of the
large "Quill feathers from the back of the
animal. Do not mistake these for boots that are smooth
ostrich steamed rolled and dyed on the tips, to make
the quills rise.
These boots are not using any endangered animals.
Ostriches are a food animal in many parts of the
world. And good ecosystems depend on not wasting any part
of the animal. Full quill ostrich skin is durable. It
is thicker than other bird skins and is applied to
another layer of leather liner for support. (Years ago,
with a shortage of ostrich, the industry tried chicken
and turkey boots, but there just was not any
"girl chasing" in boots that looked like
Tyson soaked 'em! They were given an awful name like
"guobblopolis" or something. And, besides, we could not
convince KFC to give us all that skin before they deep
fried it for flavor.)
The Crepe sole system,
with all sorts of leather innards, provides a shock
absorbing, slip resistant surface for most wearing
conditions. Double row sole stitching provides a
secure hold for long wear.
Smooth Ostrich breathes. The large quill marks
have a large pore that allows easy dissipation of foot
moisture. The ease of sweat dissipation is why
sometimes a de-salter is needed to remove white marks.
For light lines, you can just use a wet rag and let
the boots dry at room temperature. Always recondition
after a deep cleansing.
Really, these feel like a sock with a sole. And they
are easy to keep looking great for a long time!

Ostrich boots need a
delicate cream for conditioning, and sometimes a de-salter
to remove salt from the skin. ( If you see white lines
after wearing, you need a de-salter.) These products
are designed to recondition this exotic skin. Leather
balm can be used to clean ostrich. Then, use a
matching cream polish to protect the boot from scuffs,
or to cover existing scuffs. There may be several boot
care products you are interested in. Just ask
about what all you may enjoy...boot hooks, boot jacks,
horsehair brushes to apply and polish, etc. We have it
all for you. You see, we want these boots to last a
good long time for you! Just a little care will make
them go a lot farther. Be sure to wipe the dust and
dirt off the skins with a soft cotton cloth each time
you take them off after wearing. This keeps dust and
dirt from cutting into the leathers.
