The Jacka Last is the premium mould we use to build our popular Turon boot series on. It has been re-crafted from an old military last used by the Australian Army. The toe features a semi-almond shape with a bit more vertical room. It also features a nicely curved waist and shallow profile for an aesthetically pleasing looking and good fit across a broad range of foot shapes.
We generally find that customers in D (medium) width size down a half size. E width customers generally select their Brannock size.
How a boot is made will have a direct impact on how snug or spacious it feels on your feet. Our boots are made so that the upper is flanged out on the top of the midsole; and the upper, insole, midsole and outsole are then hand-stitched together (commonly refered to as Stitchdown Construction). Compared to the popular Goodyear Welt method, Stitchdown boots are generally more spacious and can have up to an extra ½centimetre of room on all sides.
