ROLLING DUB TRIO introduces a new series, M42.5.

Among the many military footwear masterpieces that have been reproduced by countless brands, the M-42 boots and the M-43 service shoes stand as true icons.
This model is an ambitious design that seeks to combine the finest qualities of both.

From the M-42, it inherits the distinctive Manson last and the higher heel balance.
From the M-43, it adopts the single-piece leather upper and its refined, elegant stitch work.
By carefully merging these defining elements, we have reconstructed them into an entirely new silhouette.

There are also numerous subtle details that reveal themselves only when the shoes are held in hand, such as the four nails placed exclusively on the inner side of the outsole, as well as a small additional leather stack added only to the inner side of the heel.

On the inside of the upper, a unique stamp has been applied, inspired by an imaginative concept: What if our own factory, THE BOOTS FACTORY, had been the constructor for the U.S. military at that time?

This distinctive pair was born from a paradoxical approach — deliberately copying something that never actually existed.

Leather

This leather is a grain-side suede finished with a wax oil treatment.
Allowing the leather to develop a unique patina and natural aging through sun exposure over time.
