Valiant

The boot is available in both ready-to-wear and made-to-order configurations, with customization options for leather selection, construction details, and sizing adjustments. Sagara produces the Valiant using hand lasting and hand welting techniques, continuing Indonesian heritage bootmaking traditions established during Dutch colonial influence in the Bandung region.

The Valiant is constructed on the Morgan last with a lace-to-toe design featuring 10 eyelets in standard 5-inch height. The current version includes design improvements from previous iterations, with the first eyelet moved forward toward the toe to enhance comfort and fitting adjustment. The boot includes redesigned heel counter shaping and pattern modifications for improved fit characteristics.

The model is available in both structured and unstructured toe configurations, allowing customers to select their preferred aesthetic and performance characteristics. The lace-to-toe design provides adjustability across the entire foot, accommodating various foot shapes and instep heights.

The Valiant employs 270º Norwegian Storm Welt construction, a method that provides enhanced water resistance and durability. This construction technique involves wrapping the welt around the boot circumference for 270 degrees, creating a weather-resistant seal around the foot opening.

Hand lasting and hand welting processes emphasize Sagara's commitment to traditional Indonesian craftsmanship methods. The bootmaker uses handwelted-Goodyear construction techniques, combining the durability of Goodyear welting with the precision of hand assembly. The sole attachment utilizes #1090 Supergrip Half-Sole for traction and wear resistance.

Some variants feature 270º Norvegese treatment with Dr. Sole black cork soles, providing different aesthetic and performance characteristics depending on customer preferences and intended use.

Ready-to-wear versions of the Valiant are constructed using Maryam Black Horsebutt leather, sourced from Italy's Maryam tannery. Custom orders can specify Cloe Horsebutt in Overdyed Black with structured toe configuration, among other leather options.

Sagara sources high-quality leathers globally, including Italian Shell Cordovan, Japanese Horse Hide, Italian calfskin, and bullhide. Natural vegetable tanned horsebutt leather represents one of the specialized material choices, emphasizing the company's focus on quality leather selection.

The boot offers complete customization options, with customers able to modify virtually all specifications during the made-to-order process. This includes leather selection, construction details, sole choice, and hardware specifications, allowing for personalized boots tailored to individual preferences and requirements.

The Valiant is priced at Rp 5,400,000 IDR (approximately $350-370 USD) for the base configuration with Cloe Horsebutt Overdyed Black leather. Ready-to-wear versions using Maryam Black Horsebutt leather are priced at $630, representing the premium charged for specialty leather selections.

Orders are placed through Sagara's official website, with made-to-order customization requiring approximately four months for completion. The company's approach emphasizes individual craftsmanship over volume production, reflected in the extended turnaround times and hands-on construction methods.

Availability varies based on leather selection and customization complexity, with some specialty materials requiring additional lead time for sourcing and preparation.
