Faborg

The Faborg uses 360-degree stitchdown construction and is available in 14 colorways ranging from classic browns and blacks to vibrant blues and greens. With a medium-to-wide fit accommodating European sizes 35-48, the boot is designed as a unisex option for active lifestyles, from urban wear to trail hiking. The model retails for $288 in the United States and $475 AUD in Australia.

The Faborg follows a chukka boot pattern with pointed quarters and seven-inch shaft height. The upper features thick double-stitching similar to original Duckfeet models from the 1970s, with additional thin reinforcement stitching in high-wear areas near the eyelets and heel counter. Contrasting wide-flat laces provide a secure, customizable fit.

A key design element is the Munson-shaped toe box, which allows considerable room for toes to spread naturally. This foot-shaped design progressively narrows from the toe box toward the heel, creating the brand's characteristic silhouette. The unlined construction and flat insole design support natural foot movement without built-in arch support.

The upper is constructed from 2.5mm thick full-grain terracare leather, a vegetable-tanned heavy cow hide that softens with wear and molds to individual foot shapes. The leather is breathable and sourced according to environmental standards. Below the upper, a vegetable-tanned leather midsole sits atop an Italian crepe rubber outsole.

The sole uses crepe rubber rather than a thin layer over EVA foam, making it biodegradable, shock-absorbing, and suitable for resoling. The construction method is 360-degree stitchdown, one of the oldest footwear construction techniques, though some sources also reference Goodyear welt construction in the manufacturing process. The insole is terracare leather with a flat profile designed to accommodate orthotic inserts.

All materials originate in Europe, with final production occurring in Poland. Duckfeet has manufactured handcrafted footwear for over 50 years from its headquarters in Denmark.

The Faborg is sized in European measurements from 35 to 48, corresponding to US women's sizes 5-12 and men's sizes 7-14. The fit is classified as medium-to-wide with a generous toe box that accommodates both average and wide feet. The boot's width allows for natural toe splay while progressively narrowing toward the heel for a secure fit.

Initial wearers typically experience heel movement due to the stiff leather, which diminishes after break-in. The sizing recommendation is to ensure toes lightly touch the end of the boot when standing; if foot measurements match the maximum length for a size, sizing up is advised. The flat insole design is compatible with orthotic inserts, though adding insoles may require going up a half size.

The boot weighs 766 grams for size 46. The vegetable-tanned leather requires a break-in period as it softens and conforms to the wearer's foot shape. The boot functions as a year-round option, keeping feet warm in winter while remaining breathable in summer.

The Faborg is available in 14 standard colorways: Black/Black, Black, Slate, Chocolate, Cocoa, Brown, Plum, Blue, Aqua Blue, Jeans, Granate, Bio, Forest, and Blue/Jeans/Slate. Additional color options including Bordo are available in some markets. The boot is distributed through official Duckfeet channels in the United States, Europe, and Australia.

The standard retail price is $288.00 USD in the United States and $475.00 AUD in Australia. Stock availability varies by size and colorway, with the model positioned as a versatile option for city streets, travel, and mountain trails.
