Bloc Cuir

Four colourways. Nine sizes. A cowhide leather ankle boot with a chunky block sole, round toe, and a vintage British silhouette — the boot that makes a statement before you’ve said a word.

Bloc Cuir is a men’s low-cut ankle boot in a cowhide leather upper with a rubber cemented outsole, a chunky block heel, and a round toe that references the vintage British boot tradition without being constrained by it. The chunky sole is the defining feature — it adds visual weight and presence to the silhouette, elevates the boot above standard ankle-boot territory, and gives every colourway a platform that makes it impossible to ignore. Four colourways — Apricot, Black, Brown, and Yellow — each with a different character and a different wardrobe role, but the same construction, the same sole, and the same intention: to be the most interesting thing in the room.

Cowhide leather, chunky block sole, and four colourways that do not apologise for themselves.

The Colour Story

Apricot — The most unexpected colourway in the range and the most editorial. Apricot on a chunky-sole leather ankle boot is the choice that signals genuine confidence in personal style — warm, distinctive, and impossible to mistake for a default. It pairs with cream, white, camel, and olive for a tonal look, or with navy and black for maximum contrast. The colourway for the man who understands that footwear is the first thing people notice and the last thing they forget.

Black — The most versatile colourway and the easiest to wear. Black cowhide on a chunky block sole is the combination that works with everything in the wardrobe — dark denim, black trousers, olive cargo, and everything in between. The colourway that lets the sole do the talking without requiring any coordination effort from the rest of the outfit.

Brown — Warm, grounded, and the most heritage-appropriate colourway for a vintage British boot. Brown cowhide develops a patina with wear that deepens and personalises the boot over time — the colourway that looks better at six months than it does on day one. Pairs with earth tones, camel, olive, and raw denim for a look that is clearly considered rather than casual.

Yellow — The boldest colourway in the range and the most deliberate statement. Yellow on a chunky-sole leather ankle boot is not a subtle choice — it is a declaration. It pairs with black, white, and navy for maximum contrast, or with other warm tones for a look that is entirely its own. The colourway for the man who has decided that his footwear should be seen.

Size Guide

Bloc Cuir is sized in EU sizing. Measure your foot length from heel to longest toe and select the size that corresponds. Cowhide leather eases with wear — if between sizes, size down for a closer fit that will ease with wear, or size up if you prefer immediate comfort. The round toe construction accommodates a range of foot widths without pressure points.

Styling Note

Bloc Cuir works best with slim or straight-leg trousers that allow the chunky sole and ankle height to be fully visible — slim jeans, tapered chinos, or cropped trousers are the silhouettes that let the boot lead. The chunky block sole adds visual weight at the foot, which means the rest of the outfit should be relatively clean and uncluttered — a simple crew neck, a clean shirt, or a structured jacket is enough. For Apricot and Yellow, keep the rest of the outfit neutral and let the boot be the statement. For Black and Brown, the boot integrates more easily into a wider range of outfits without requiring the same level of coordination discipline.

Care Instructions

• Clean with a soft damp cloth or leather cleaner — cowhide leather responds well to dedicated leather cleaning products and should be cleaned regularly to maintain the surface finish
• Condition with a leather conditioner every 4–6 weeks — conditioning maintains the suppleness of the cowhide and prevents cracking, particularly at the ankle flex point
• Polish with a matching leather polish to maintain the finish — for Apricot and Yellow, use a neutral/clear polish to maintain the colour without altering the tone; for Black and Brown, use a matching colour polish
• Air dry naturally away from direct heat — direct heat causes cowhide to dry out and crack; always dry at room temperature
• Store with shoe trees — shoe trees maintain the shape of the round toe and the ankle boot structure between wears
