Description
The Byron Boot is your go-anywhere, do-anything footwear. Inspired by motorcycle culture but with a drop of sophistication, the Byron embodies the best of Rancourt & Co. shoemaking knowledge and tradition. The uppers are crafted from Horween's veg tan Essex leather in black. This rugged black leather is low maintenance, durable, and incredibly handsome.We lasted the uppers on our proprietary 115 last, the same last we use for our dress shoes. We offer a wide range of sizes and widths on the 115 last because of it's superior fit and elegant shape. It perfectly straddles the line between dress and casual. Each pair is fully lined with Horween's Casco horsehide lining in black. We love Casco because it is a soft and supple leather lining that lends more structure and durability to the uppers without sacrificing comfort. The bottoms are a winning combination of leather midsole with a storm welt and the Vibram #430 mini lug. They complete this rugged look without overdosing on "commando" style. The Byron Boot is handcrafted in Lewiston, Maine USA using our Blake Welt Stitch Construction.

Blake Construction last. Longer and narrower than our handsewn last for a more sophisticated look and fit. Used in dress shoes and boots. Order your normal Rancourt size but consider ordering one width up if you like a roomy fit. Sizing Guide
These are great boots. The materials are all top quality and the construction is excellent. Sizing is an issue though. Rancourt, like a lot of on-line shoe companies, go to a lot of effort to help customers with sizing. I downloaded their sizing guide (pdf) and followed the instructions very carefully. It gave me an 8D - so I ordered that size. When the boots arrived, it was obvious they were too narrow. I went through their sizing guide again - and it gave me 8D. They boots were almost half an inch too narrow. I had to return them at my cost and exchange them for an 8EE. The 8EE arrived and to my relief, they are wide enough. Americans must like their shoes tight.
Top quality, great fit, and very handsome. My 2nd pair. My 1st pair was sent to ME in Dec '23 to be resoled. 5 1/2 months later (!) I was told that the pair would be ready for shipment. A week after that, I was told that the pair had been irreparably damaged. The team offered to send me a brand new pair or refund me the repair charge. That was a no brainer. Hoping that Rancourt is able to get back on track and resolve its issues.

This is a great boot with a minimal break-in period. I can tell that it will patina nicely. Overall comfort and fit is a 9.5/10. I’ve worn these boots in inclement weather and it kept my feet dry. Walking for many hours on concrete is practical. Carolina Brown works as a staple for any wardrobe as a go-to brown boot.
These boots are worth every penny! The leather is amazing inside and out and the construction is solid. They broke in after a few hours of walking around the mall. I only wish that at this price point they came with shoe bags and/or a spare set of laces.
