The SERENGETI is a full-grain leather driver moccasin slip-on loafer — available in charcoal/dark grey, forest green, and gold/champagne. No strap. No penny slot. No decoration. Just hand-stitched moccasin construction from toe to heel and a driver sole built for the road.
This is the shoe you reach for when you want to move without thinking about it. The leather softens to the foot. The sole grips without gripping back.
Full-grain leather upper — hand-stitched moccasin construction · charcoal/dark grey · forest green · gold/champagne. Leather lining. Segmented rubber driver sole — dark navy/black rubber with gold/tan leather midsole border · pebbled heel nub pattern for grip.
Named for the Serengeti — the great plain of Tanzania and Kenya, one of the largest and most ancient ecosystems on earth. Where everything moves and nothing stops.
For the man who is always in motion.

Cleaning
For surface dirt — a slightly damp cloth, no soap. For deeper marks — a small amount of saddle soap on a damp cloth, worked gently into the leather, wiped clean, then dried with a soft cloth.
Conditioning
Apply a natural leather conditioner — beeswax-based or lanolin-based — every 3 to 6 months. Use a soft cloth, work in small circular motions, allow to absorb for 30 minutes, then buff lightly.
Water
East African full grain leather is naturally water resistant. If the shoe gets wet — wipe dry immediately and allow to air dry away from direct heat. Do not use a hair dryer or place near a radiator.
Storage
Store with shoe trees when not in use. Keep away from direct sunlight for extended periods. Use the dust bag provided.
The Patina
The darkening and character that develops over months of wear is not wear — it is the leather responding to you. Condition regularly and it will continue to develop for years. No two pairs age identically. That is the point.
