Bronze is an exclusive color developed for Grant Stone in the Rough Mohawk flesh-out suede line produced by Charles F. Stead, a British tannery based in Leeds, England. The bronze colorway features a warm, metallic brown tone that complements the highly textured, irregular nap characteristic of Rough Mohawk leather. As an exclusive offering, bronze is available only through Grant Stone products and represents a unique collaboration between the American footwear maker and the English tannery.
Bronze Rough Mohawk exhibits the same flesh-out construction and rugged texture as the standard Rough Mohawk line, with the flesh side of the hide exposed to create a nappy finish. The bronze color adds a distinctive warm tone to the leather's natural variations, with the irregular surface creating visual depth and character.
Bronze Rough Mohawk features the standard Rough Mohawk specifications, with average skin sizes of 12 to 15 square feet and thickness ranging from 1.4 to 2.4mm. The leather is full-grain British suede with a nappy finish that creates rough and natural texture. The tight fiber structure characteristic of Rough Mohawk contributes to the bronze variant's authentic character while maintaining structural integrity for footwear applications.
The surface texture exhibits a wide range of nappiness, with highly irregular characteristics creating distinct visual and tactile variation between individual skins. No two pairs of boots in bronze will appear identical due to the natural variations in the leather's processing and the preservation of the flesh side's natural characteristics.
Grant Stone manufactures two boot models in bronze Rough Mohawk: the Brass Boot and the Garrison Boot. The Brass Boot features a handsewn moc-toe construction with a lug rubber outsole and full-grain leather kip lining. The Garrison Boot is a military-inspired design with a perforated cap toe and backstay, representing Grant Stone's first all-eyelet boot model.
Both models utilize Goodyear welt construction, making them resolable and built for long-term wear. The boots are crafted at Grant Stone's factory on Xiamen Island, China. The bronze colorway retails at $380 for both models, though pricing may vary during promotional periods.
