Again Mister Crew brings us the latest from Seattle with his fine taste and well edited picks. The latest arrival at Blackbird is a great looking plain toe work boot. The boot also features a Alden Goodyear molded rubber sole which usually only shows up in Japan. It fits the boot perfectly but what I really like is the soft looking black leather on the boots. The flat black Novo calf leather is a great choice of material as I find all of the black boots I like come in a shiny, tougher leather when I prefer the soft looking aesthetic that's more prone to get broken in quickly and feel nice and soft. The boots are inspired by the tub boat style of the North West, and have been expressly made for Blackbird. Put these at the top of your holiday list asap because I have a feeling they will be gone quickly.

The color is actually navy, but yeah these are the stuff dreams are made of.
The black military lace-up boots by Yuketen are very similar.
I am wearing those. strangely almost noone reviewed them.
These here are close to perfect though.
^Yes, the Yuketen ones are really nice too.
Nic - The style is based on a navy blucher I think but the website says "flat black Novo calf leather". I'm going off that and the images.
Beautiful shoe. I would love these in a brown leather also.
Hah my bad, it is black. Navy laces and monitor settings threw me off.
