Product overview
About casual outdoor boots
Casual outdoor boots borrow outdoor details, such as padded collars, lug soles and hooks, but stay light and wearable. The reference shows an olive nubuck-look upper, black padded collar, tan pull tab and a cream midsole on a gum lug outsole.
Two-tone soles and contrasting collars give this style its look, so sole colours and leather shades are approved together. Construction is usually cemented.

Branding without new tooling
- Heel branding. Printed, embroidered, embossed or rubber-badge branding on the heel counter or tab.
- Tongue labels. Woven, printed or rubber labels on the tongue.
- Insole printing. Logo printed or hot-stamped on the sock liner.
- Custom shoeboxes. Printed boxes to your artwork; minimums set by the box printer.
- Hangtags. Printed swing tags attached to the pair.
- Barcode labels. EAN/UPC labels on boxes or polybags, from codes the buyer supplies.
- Carton markings. Shipping marks, size breakdown and destination printed or labelled on export cartons.
Branding that needs tooling
- Embossed logos. Heat and pressure with a metal die raise the logo on leather or synthetic.
- Debossed and heat-stamped logos. A die presses the logo into the surface, optionally with foil.
- Rubber, TPU or metal badges. Moulded or cast badges need a mould or die per design.
Custom lasts, outsole moulds, cutting dies and branding tools may add tooling costs and raise minimum quantities. They are quoted separately before you commit.
