Zephyr Premier Build

MODEL DETAILS

Designed for horse riding & upland bird hunting, the Zephyr was the original zipper-back moccasin. A solid brass YKK zipper above the heel provides added on-and-off speed and permits snug fit around the leg. Over the last 75 years the Zephyr has been colloquially known as the "Plantation Boot" due to it's extensive use by hunting guides and farmers across wildlife preserves in the Southeastern United States.

Included with our Double and Triple Vamp Boots

A pair of Comfort Insoles is included with our Double and Triple vamp Models. Use is optional, however they are an excellent way to make slight adjustments to the boot fit and add shock absorption.

Double Vamp Construction

4) Inner Vamp

Our unique sock-like liner that seals the interior of our performance footwear. This true moccasin layer is hand-lasted and makes the boot incredibly water-resistant and comfortable.

1) Outer Vamp

This is the primary moccasin layer that forms the core of all our footwear. Hand lasted from the bottom-up, it wraps all the way underneath the foot for the ultimate flexibility and comfort.

2) Overlap Seam

Patented in 1910 at Russell, the Overlap seam protects the joint between the vamp and plug. Hand sewn for nearly two hours per pair, it is highly water-resistant and differentiates Russells from Maine Moccasins.

I love my Zephyr boots

The style and comfort of these boots exceeded my expectations! They are great for everyday wear! I chose the chocolate Bison design and am very pleased with the look.
