Amberjack “The Boot” Review: Copper Nubuck Leather Boots

Since I first reviewed Amberjack’s Chelsea boots, I’ve put many miles through them. When I saw they introduced a new boot, I was very keen to try them, especially the copper Nubuck style.

Unlike the aforementioned Chelseas, the new Amberjack The Boot is a more casual style with a bit of the brand’s own modern flair. It also promises the same level of comfort as the rest of its shoe catalog.

Closest in its aesthetic to a Service boot, I’m curious to see if The Boot wears differently than Amberjack’s other boot style. Toward that end, I’ll be reviewing them via the following sections:

In the pictures on Amberjack’s website, the texture of the copper Nubuck leather looked incredibly enticing, which is why I opted for it. Additionally, I already have the Chelsea boots in Chestnut leather, so either of the full-grain varieties was off the table for me.

After receiving my order, Amberjack released an Olive Nubuck option featuring a distinctive black leather segment around the heel. Although a slight difference, this variation gave the boots a unique look and made me briefly second-guess my initial choice.

Style & Appearance

As briefly mentioned earlier, these boots are best classified as a service boot style, given their derby lace closure and above-the-ankle boot shaft. While traditional service boots often feature a stacked heel, The Boot deviates from this when it incorporates Amberjack’s
