“In the world of shoes, we call this material “pony”. It doesn’t have anything to do with an actual pony though. “Pony” is calf or cow leather that still has its fur. It’s been named “Pony” because the fur is trimmed short so that it looks like pony hair. When normal smooth leather gets tanned, the hides are first treated with lime, which has a depilatory effect. For this type of leather, there is no lime treatment and the hair undergoes the tanning along with the rest of the leather. Every single hair is rock solid and super strong. To make this boot even more spectacular, the dyed pony hair has been finished with a graphic print. Bikers who meet on the road often greet each other. This shoe is a version of that. If a fellow shoe enthusiast sees these boots on someone else, there may well be a thumbs up.”
