A Massdrop Exclusive – Vote for the Rider Boot Co. Dundalk in new colors!
Ron Rider is a bit of a legend in the footwear world – he’s a second-generation shoe merchant and knows the ins and outs of the industry, from the tanneries and factories where shoes are made to the stores and vendors that sell them. He’s been an active contributor on Styleforum since the early days of the site, and been a presence on many style blogs and websites for over many years.
Rider Boot Co. is the brainchild of Ron’s background and design aesthetic, and is known for offering a unique take on classic shoes to the market. His shoes often feature an American style and sensibility, but with a slightly streamlined, European shape.
I’m very excited to say that we will be partnering with Ron to bring his classic Dundalk boot to Massdrop, at a great price and with customization options that are not available anywhere else. Ron has given us the option to choose between several shades of his popular “Reverso” leather, and it’s up to you to decide what we move forward with.
The leather that we choose will be tanned specifically for these shoes, so this is a custom project in the truest form of the word. Vote for your favorites now and expect a drop for the Dundalk soon!
IanAndersonDo you have any information as to whether only one leather will be chosen? Given that the leather will have to be tanned after being chosen, what is time frame on these?
