The Brandon Cap Toe Boots (Grizzly Brown) (Munson Last - Goodyear Welted)

Inspired by the US Army’s Type II Service Shoe — the boot that marched across Europe in WWII — The Brandon Cap Toe is our tribute to one of the most iconic military footwear designs ever issued. To honor its lineage, we sourced authentic Army boots from the 1940s, 50s, and 60s, studying three generations of Munson last evolution and pattern refinements.

Those insights shaped a new, hand-drawn pattern that stays true to military proportions while flowing with Craft & Glory’s sleeker, modern aesthetic.

Built on our modified Munson last, the BCT delivers the anatomical comfort soldiers relied on through long campaigns — now refined for everyday wear. Full-grain water buffalo leather, quad-stitched reinforcement, and heavy vegetable-tanned counters equip this boot to handle anything the world throws at it, while the cap-toe construction offers a touch of timeless polish.

Underfoot, a cork-supported leather insole and our proprietary Anvil Heritage sole turn long days on hard ground into confident strides. From office duty to weekend battles, the Brandon Cap Toe stands as the perfect blend of rugged authenticity and elevated style.
A field-tested classic — built to serve a new generation.
