Vintage Nocona • Full Patchwork Ostrich • Men’s 8.5 D
An exceptional vintage pair from Nocona featuring full ostrich construction from toe to shaft. The vamps are made from full-quill ostrich, while the tall patchwork shafts combine individual panels of ostrich leather with noticeably different grain, quill patterns, and tones. Everything is finished in a warm golden-brown color that has developed plenty of natural variation with age. The patchwork construction makes these considerably more unusual than the traditional ostrich boots Nocona produced.
Why We Love Them
The full patchwork construction is the standout. Rather than pairing ostrich vamps with conventional cowhide shafts, Nocona carried the exotic leather throughout the entire boot. The individually stitched panels create a great mix of textures while the full-quill vamps provide the unmistakable look collectors associate with vintage ostrich. They also have a particularly good vintage profile with a slightly pointed toe, traditional western heel, and tall shafts.

Condition
Good vintage condition. The ostrich remains attractive and displays the natural variation, grain, and character expected from an older pair. There is visible wear and patina throughout, including creasing and tonal variation in the leather. The leather outsoles show clear wear from use, while the heels retain rubber caps. Please review all photographs closely for the most accurate representation of condition.
