Yuks Type 2, a mid-cut profiled timeless design, bringing together the pliant comfort of the true-moccasin constructed shoe and a simple aestheticism of a shoe last from the 1960s. These shoes were designed and crafted under a concept of linking to the careful craftsmanship of the good old days with nostalgic look and feel.
Each pair is entirely hand-cut and hand-constructed from select cuts of German-made vegetable-tanned leather. This ‘naked’ leather is exceptionally breathable and will patina more quickly than leathers that have undergone further processing.
Full vegetable-tanned leather insoles and leather tucks with steel shank reinforcements increase fitting in the arch and heel as well as lessen foot fatigue by forming a stable bridge between the heel and ball of the owner's foot which causes weight to be distributed more evenly across the foot. This results in reduced foot fatigue and improved comfort.
The traditional natural rubber crepe sole provides superb shock absorption and an incredibly soft and slip-resistant tread, ensuring sublime comfort for the wearer.

WARNING: It is important to avoid contact with any petroleum based products as this may cause the natural crepe outsole to dissolve.
