What's This Video About?
In this video, I unbox the Bordon Tukano boot, from Bordon Colombia. This is their second group MTO batch that closed in December 2021 and was made in December 2021/January 2022. The first batch was a Rapid Stitch construction, but this second batch has moved to a stitchdown construction.
The Tukano boot comes in several makeups, in smooth black leather, medium brown waxy suede, and dark brown waxy suede, and they come with either a Vibram Eton sole (studded) or a Vibram commando sole (deep lugged).
My version of the boot is in medium brown waxy suede from an Italian tannery, and with a commando sole. It is fully lined with Italian calf leather, and the in- and mid-soles are Colombian veg tanned leather. These boots are hand made by local artisans who are paid a fair wage, with an eye to avoid waste and harm to the environment.

Who Am I?
I am a Management Consultant in real life but in my Bootlosophy channel, I make videos about boots and all things boot related. This channel posts reviews of boots, unboxing of new boots, and follow up reviews, and in doing so, may explore the philosophy of the brands from time to time!
I have owned boots for decades, but to be honest I have owned them as functional pieces of footwear. It wasn't until early 2020 when COVID struck that I started online shopping boots to an obsessive degree. I love the aesthetic of boots and I love finding out more about how they are made. I now own an insane number of boots, and one day I may sell some of them (just not right now).
