Named after our hometown, Bailey, Colorado.

  • Full gusseted tongue
  • American-made outsole

Our Bailey boot is an extremely versatile, capable, and well-rounded boot. 

Fit:

This boot uses our Free Range™ Original last for a snug fit through the midfoot and heel with enough room for the toes to lay naturally.

Sole:

Our new American-made outsole provides excellent traction, especially on smooth surfaces.

  • Slip resistant
  • Oil resistant
  • Non-Marking

Note on texture and color:

Variations in color and texture can vary from boot to boot due to the natural characteristics of the bison leather. The boots you purchase may have a heavier or more mild texture from what is pictured or be slightly lighter or darker in color.

Handcrafted in León, Mexico.

Bailey boot FAQ's

No. Within the world of footwear, the designation of 'waterproof' carries certain testing requirements that we have not obtained. However, due to the construction and materials of our Bailey Boot, our real-world wear testing has shown these to handle water very well. The leather is rich in oils and finished with waxes, which provides a difficult surface for water to penetrate.

The total thickness of the sole, referred to sometimes as 'stack height,' is about 23mm. That includes the thickness of the insole.

Yes. The sole thickness is constant from heel to toe and that includes the insole.

Yes!

Yes!

Yes! The 360 stitchdown construction makes for a boot that is resoleable.

Yes. These boots have a cushioned insole and also get some cushion from the blown polyurethane outsole.

No. Our insole and footbed are flat.

Our Bailey Boot is wide, but not crazy wide. It will be wide enough for most people to allow for their toes to lay in a natural position.

Compared to barefoot and minimalist shoes that feature a wide toe box, the Bailey is wider than most, but not the widest.

Compared to US standard widths, our toe box leans toward a 4E in width.

These feel like very high quality boots

These feel like very high quality boots. I am excited and i hope they break in well. They seem like the right size for me but they are slipping a little bit on my heel, probably because the sole is somewhat rigid. They are heavy, but that makes sense with the materials used. I have not had a pair of shoes that requires breaking in in a long time, So far they have been comfortable if i wear them for low impact use, but the first time I wore them for yard work with lots of walking it made my heels sore.

The new soul- tread is excellent❗️outstanding‼️

These boots are 100% legitimate-truth.” AS FAR AS FOOTWEAR 100% 💯 shaped to fit a range of human beings feets 👣 & 🦶🏼foots. COMFORTABLE : )They don’t really need to even be broken in’ yet they are rugged,” modern-stylish & retro-classic design-contemporary” “ RELEVANT” now I’m just waiting on the hiking boots. Although these easily can be used for that. “ it’s easy to make disingenuous statements.” THIS IS NOT THE CASE WITH THIS FOOT WHERE THESE BOOTS ARE REAL BOOTS THAT ARE REAL COMFORTABLE-AND RUGGED WITHOUT EXAGGERATION. in the photo, the one with the dark green laces are the new tread-design.

These are my second pair of boots. I love the wide toe box and they are made of real materials. Since these are my second pair I know how to break them in. They fit perfectly. And they are super comfortable. I stand nearly all day for my job and my feet do not hurt at the end of the day. These are well built and should last for a very long time.

I have been looking for boots like this for a long time

I have been looking for boots like this for a long time. They are comfortable and durable. Took them on a backpacking trip and they were rock solid and my feet were happy. They are my daily wearers and I love them.

Love the Barefoot Bison Boots.

These guys are barely broken in yet I can wear them 12 hours or more in total comfort. Love the last with it’s wide toe box, but firm around the heel too. The leather is beautiful and the workmanship is good enough. Hella expensive in Japan with their crazy shoe tariffs, but worth every penny.
