Vintage • Custom Loveless • Pre-Ban Sea Turtle • Black • Men’s 10 D
Vintage custom cowboy boots by Loveless, constructed with genuine pre-ban sea turtle leather in black. These boots feature sea turtle vamps with the characteristic irregular scale pattern extending around the heels and into the lower shafts.
The black leather shafts feature traditional Western stitching, decorative piping, scalloped tops, and leather pull straps. Additional construction details include pointed toes, traditional Western heels, leather outsoles, and Vibram rubber heel caps.
Sea turtle leather was historically used in custom Western bootmaking before international trade restrictions significantly limited its availability. Surviving vintage examples represent a distinct category of exotic leather cowboy boots.
