Sock Ankle Boot — Khaki

A sock-fit ankle boot with a metal toe cap is a fashion purchase with one technical risk: the stretch upper has to recover its shape after wear. This khaki build uses a sock-knit collar over a structured vamp, so the shoe pulls on without a zip, holds the ankle, and keeps a slim silhouette on a sculpted heel. The metal toe cap is the detail that sells it — it reads expensive in a shop window and it protects the toe box from scuffing.

Specification

Fashion boot, rubber outsole, size run 35#-40#. Khaki and black are standard colourways; both are stocked as sample colours so approval does not require a custom run. The heel is slim and sculpted, which means the style suits city and indoor wear rather than rough ground.

Ordering

• MOQ 600 pairs per colour
• Packing: one pair per polybag, 30 pairs per carton, boot tree optional
• Lead time 25-35 days after deposit and sample approval
• FOB Xiamen or EXW

Upper colour, cap finish (polished, brushed or gunmetal), heel height and outsole colour are all specifiable. For boutique customers we can supply the boot with a printed box and a dust bag; both are quoted separately because they change the carton dimensions and therefore the freight cost.

Sock-fit boots are a fit-sensitive category. We recommend a graded sample set across 35#-40#, with particular attention to the 35#-36# end, where the collar tension is highest and the most common complaint appears.
