When sampling this particular wedge sole, we found the treading and balance looked great, and the shoe had a nice feel. The silhouette is more casual, and the wedge matched with the gutsy leather upper creates a rugged shoe that can go anywhere.

The Badalassi Carlo Tannery's Minerva leather is one of our favorites. This boutique Italian tannery specializes in vegetable tanning. During the process, the leather is placed in a 'Bottali,' a large barrel that rotates, allowing the organic tanning substances to stay in contact with the article. A complete cycle may take 30 - 35 days. The result is an incredibly rich leather with transparency and depth.

The leather can have prominent vamp breaks and a variation of colors. Since this is a light-colored vegetable-tanned article, areas on the boot may have darker hues.

  • Goodyear-welt construction
  • Leo last
  • Minerva from Badalassi Carlo
  • Full-grain kip leather lining
  • 360º split-reverse welt
  • Antique brass eyelets
  • Vegetable-tanned leather insole, welt, and midsole
  • Cork filler with steel shank 
  • Full-grain leather heel counters
  • Vibram cavity wedge outsole

Every pair crafted on Xiamen Island, China

The Leo last runs a half-size large. Our customers typically take our Leo-lasted footwear a half-size down from their average sneakers size or the same size as their other Goodyear-welted footwear.

My personal Button Stud Watch Strap and Bulldog Wallet along with a few of my other favorite things. The Bulldog Wallet is great as a minimalist carry. Button Stud Watch straps are a comfortable and good looking way to wear any kind of Watch - Apple Watches or Spring Bar watches can both be made to work with these.

Did you know the co-founders of grantstone spent 8 years in the Xiamen factory, learning the craft and Chinese culture en route to creating the perfect shoe? A shoe that will last you for years!⁠ ⁠ ⁠ I really wanted to up my shoe game and decided to get a pair of these plain toe saddle tan shoes from them and I think they look really sleek! What do you guys think?

My First Pair of Grant Stone
Review by Drew G. on 17 Oct 2018 review stating My First Pair of Grant Stone
These plain toe blutchers are my first pair of Grant Stone and hopefully not my last. Blown away by construction, attention to detail, beauty and comfort. These shoes rival some of the best shoe brands out there but represent a much better value proposition . Dollar for dollar I’d be hard pressed to find a better shoe on the market today. If you’re on the fence with these - do yourself a favor and pull the trigger. You won’t be disappointed.

Great customer service as well!

Great pair of casual shoes
Review by Kunal H. on 11 Aug 2018 review stating Great pair of casual shoes
I bought these pair of shoes since I needed a more casual shoe for going out and to wear with shorts and denim. These shoes are great! They are very comfortable and will look better with wear.

Another home run for GS
Review by James F. on 30 Jun 2018 review stating Another home run for GS
I should start by saying that this is not my first pair of Grant Stone’s. I have the same shoe, with leather sole and love it. I was looking for a more casual, lighter weight “summer shoe” when this appeared on the GS website. I didn’t hesitate ordering the first day they were available. Received them in a couple of days and, as usual with GS - construction and finishing are flawless. Fit is spot on and the cavity wedge sole is extremely comfortable to walk on. If you are at all on the fence about ordering a pair of Grant Stone shoes or boots, don’t wait- they are worth it!

Top Quality Shoe
Review by Robert F. on 28 Jun 2018 review stating Top Quality Shoe
I have a difficult shoe size, but Grant Stone had the 12E I needed. When I received my new shoes, I was impressed by the quality. I have worn Allen Edmonds for over 25 years. My first impression with an actual shoe on my foot is that Grant Stone's are better made. They definitely fit better than my most recent pair of AE's. Additionally, prior to making my first purchase, I had many email discussions regarding my fit issues. These discussions with the Grant Stone team convinced me that they were committed to producing high-quality shoes and providing excellent customer care. I have not yet fully broken in my new Plain Toe Saddle Tan Veg / Cavity Wedge Sole, but I believe they will become a very comfortable pair of shoes. I'm looking forward to my next pair.

Made with

Goodyear-welt Construction

Renowned for its durability and ability to be resoled repeatedly, Goodyear-welt construction involves stitching a welt—a strip of leather or rubber—around the shoe's perimeter, creating a cavity. After filling the cavity with the shank and cork, the sole is attached, providing strength and water resistance. This construction method results in shoes that are not only long-lasting but also easily repairable, making them a timeless investment in quality craftsmanship.

Our Leo Last

Derived from our experience fitting and developing various orthopedic-shaped lasts designed for specific foot shapes, the Leo features a moderate arch, heel control, medial support, and forefront freedom. It embodies a traditional welted shoe shape while prioritizing all-day support and comfort. 

Our mission

Providing Excellent Service

Our priority has been putting customers in shoes that properly fit them and standing by our amazing products. Many customers have found they have been wearing an incorrect size for years. This has been lost in the market today. We offer the majority of our footwear in D, E, and EEE widths to provide well-fitting footwear.

We encourage customers to ask our team for assistance to ensure the best fit.
