Black Nubuck leather for the smooth, classy but versatile look! Goodyear-Welt construction, quality boots. Leather soles with a rubber heal. Made in Leon, Guanajuato, Mexico, the shoe capital of the Americas.  Nubuck leather is like suede, but it is from the outer layer of the leather hide so it is more durable and resistant to wear, but it still has a beautiful soft texture to it.
