What Makes These Classic Country Boots?

The traditional waterproof country boot is a pull-on or zip-up leather boot, knee-high or mid-calf, with a rubber outsole and waterproof lining — designed for wet fields, farm lanes and countryside use. The Bareback range hits all these notes: waterproof membranes confirmed in each product, dual grip rubber outsoles for muddy terrain, and classic leather uppers in earthy Brown, deep Chocolate and country Blue. The Quebec, Hudson Storm and Dakota are the core styles, each approaching the same brief from a slightly different angle.

Quebec vs Hudson Storm — Which Country Boot?

The Quebec Pull-on is a mid-calf waterproof boot in Black and Brown with Wide Fit available. The Hudson Storm is a full-height knee-high boot in Chocolate with an adjustable calf fit. If you want a classic Brown or Black pull-on at mid-calf height, the Quebec is the one. If you want a taller Chocolate boot with an adjustable fit, the Hudson Storm is the better choice. For a knee-high boot in Brown or Blue in Standard or Wide Calf, the Dakota is the third option.

Wide Fit Country Boot Options

The Dakota (Brown and Blue), Quebec Pull-on and Quebec Wool-Lined all come in a Wide Calf fit. The Hudson Storm has a standard calf with an adjustable toggle for some flex, while the ankle-height styles (Quebec Ankle, Quebec Zip Ankle, Hudson Ankle and Ottawa Storm) are a standard ankle fit with no calf sizing.

Choosing a Colour — Brown, Blue, Chocolate or Black

Brown is the classic country boot colourway and is available across the Quebec Pull-on, Quebec Ankle, Quebec Zip styles and Dakota. Black is available in the Quebec range and offers a more versatile, go-anywhere colourway. Chocolate is exclusive to the Hudson range (Storm, Mid and Ankle) and has a warm, earthy tone. Blue is available in the Dakota only and is popular for those who want a country boot with a less conventional colour. All four colours are waterproof.

Ottawa Storm — A Shorter Alternative

The Ottawa Storm is a ladies waterproof ankle boot in Black and Brown — a shorter option for those who want the waterproof leather quality without full-height coverage. It is not recommended for high instep feet, so please check the product page before ordering if this applies to you.
