Need a black boot that looks right with tailored trousers on Monday and jeans on Saturday? The Redback Whistler in Black Kip (RWBK) is a refined Chelsea boot designed and made in Sydney. It has a more polished finish than most Redback styles but keeps the comfort and build quality the brand is known for.
The upper is black oil kip leather with a subtle, refined finish, made in three pieces with dual elastic side panels for easy pull-on wear. A full genuine leather lining lets the boot breathe. The removable closed-cell PU footbed is shaped to support the foot. Redback uses direct attach construction to join the lightweight PU midsole to a high-traction, oil and slip resistant TPU outsole, which keeps the boot light and flexible enough for all-day wear.
