Piper Goodyear Welted Ghillie Brogue - Thistle shoes

“The Commando Piper” – Style GYW

Our piper collection has been developed in conjunction with world-class pipers for lasting comfort and maximum durability. Thistle shoes offer the best quality and durability to the pipe bands, whilst ensuring comfort on those long marches. These shoes are made using a Goodyear welted construction, one of the best quality shoe construction in the world. The quality of the welt and finished lock stitch can clearly be seen on the traditional commando sole unit.

The shoe is leather lined to allow the foot to breathe and includes a padded leather insole and top line for maximum comfort around the heel and ankle. Featured on this shoe are the traditional steel quarter tips which are hand screwed into the heel.

The Commando Piper brogue features a thicker leather upper with a waxy finish to help with wet weather protection when marching across the grass. A heavy cleated rubber sole aids with grip in all conditions.

Spotlighting the full leather liner allows the foot to breathe and includes extra padded leather around the heel and ankle for maximum comfort.

The traditional hand screwed steel quarter tip in the heel for maximum durability and authenticity making this the perfect ghillie for the serious pipers. 

We try to keep as many sizes as we can in stock but there may be a short wait for delivery
