The Small Batch Casual Boot is a limited-edition heritage-inspired boot made by Georgia Boot. Designed to reinterpret classic work boot silhouettes from the 1960s with modern comfort technologies, the Small Batch collection features premium materials and sustainable manufacturing practices while maintaining traditional construction methods.
The boot is built with Goodyear welt construction and a full-grain leather upper, combining durability with environmental considerations through Gold Rated Tannery sourcing and Bloom foam technology. The Small Batch collection represents Georgia Boot's effort to blend vintage-inspired design with contemporary footwear innovation.
The Small Batch Collection draws inspiration from Georgia Boot's most iconic work boot silhouettes from the 1960s. These classic styles have been reimagined for modern consumers with improved comfort technologies and premium componentry while preserving the original aesthetic. The collection is offered as a limited edition, emphasizing its heritage-focused positioning.
The 6-inch moc-toe design follows traditional work boot patterns, featuring the characteristic stitching and silhouette associated with mid-century American work footwear.
The Small Batch Casual Boot uses Goodyear welt construction, a traditional method that allows for resoling and provides long-term durability. The premium leather welt contributes to the boot's structural integrity and extends its usable life.
A steel shank is incorporated between the insole and outsole for added stability and arch support. This component helps distribute weight and provides torsional rigidity during wear.
The boot stands 6 inches in height, following the standard proportions of classic American work boots while maintaining a balance between ankle support and mobility.
The upper is constructed from full-grain "Hot Stuff" leather, left unlined with a pig skin collar. The pig leather extends to the tongue, creating a consistent interior finish. This unlined construction allows the leather to breathe while conforming to the wearer's foot over time.
Hardware consists of milled brass components with an antique brass finish. Each boot includes two pairs of waxed cotton laces in brown and black, providing options for different styling preferences.
The premium leather welt is made from quality hide, selected to withstand the stresses of the Goodyear welting process and provide a durable foundation for the boot's construction.
The boot incorporates Georgia Boot's Technology Driven Comfort (TDC) system through a removable polyurethane insole. The TDC footbed is ergonomically designed in the heel and arch areas to provide targeted support throughout extended wear.
The insole uses Bloom foam, which combines EVA foam with BLOOM algae biomass. This material is harvested from waterways, with each pair of Small Batch boots sold helping to return fresh water to ecosystems.
Air channels on the underside of the insole promote circulation, managing moisture and temperature during use. A cushion EVA midsole sits between the insole and outsole, providing additional shock absorption.
The outsole is made from Vibram rubber in a wedge configuration. The lug pattern offers traction on varied terrain while the wedge design distributes impact across the foot's surface area.
The Small Batch collection sources all leather through Gold Rated Tanneries, which use technology to reduce water consumption, energy use, and chemical inputs in the tanning process. This certification indicates adherence to environmental standards set by the Leather Working Group.
The Bloom foam technology in the insole serves a dual function, providing cushioning while utilizing algae biomass that would otherwise contribute to waterway degradation. The harvesting process removes excess algae, helping to restore water quality in affected ecosystems.
Each pair sold contributes to the introduction of fresh water back into natural systems through the algae removal and processing cycle.
