You might not think "Indonesia" when you hear "boots" but if you don't, you should. Because of a history of Dutch colonization, a dash of Chinese businessmen, and a strong spirit of artistry and creativity, the city of Bandung is the world's preeminent hotspot for crazy high quality boots that are hand made to a degree you won't find anywhere else — at least, not for three figures.
The 5-person team at Sagara Bootmaker is perhaps the best known and while there's a lot of discussion of their trailmaster hiking boots and their boondockers, their top selling boot is this exact model: the Cordmaster. Made with a lace-to-toe monkey boot design, super thick natural vegetable tanned horsebutt leather from Italy, two leather midsoles and a Norwegian handwelt, it's hard to think of any boot that better embodies why so many guys get their boots made in Bandung.
