Shop Lakeshore LastThe 1091 Cork Sole is more than a faithful recreation of the hard rubber cork soles used widely in the mid-twentieth century in applications ranging from military to motorsports. This sole is lighter, grippier, and more shock-absorbent without compromising the durability or oil resistance for which cork soles are known. Each sole is affixed to a thick layer of leather, finished with brass tacks, and paired with a matching Dr. Sole 1101w Cork Heel.
Shop Dr. Sole 1091Badalassi's Nemesi (Nemesis) is vegetable tanned in Italy and features beautifully subtle variations throughout the hide. Its drum stained with a rustic aniline finish and further polished with a stone glaze, giving a mild sheen to the surface. Due to the light milling process, Nemesi retains its original firm temper, making it strong enough for a service boot. It develops a light but distinctive patina over time, with worn areas being particularly prone to deep and dark tones.
