The wool lining of Odense ensures your feet are snug in your boots all year long, but especially in the cooler months. Just like our popular Faborg boots with the added comfort of wool lining, these unisex boots work well on all foot types, as the six lace holes secure your foot and offer great ankle support.
Duckfeet in Denmark have been making shoes by hand for over forty years. Duckfeet are simple and functional, typical of mid-20th century Danish design. Duckfeet foot-formed design allows room for the toes to spread naturally as you walk, and for air to reach the feet. Leather midsoles and uppers breathe and transport moisture away from the foot. We use leather because it strong and long-lasting, but also flexible – allowing the shoe to move with and mould to your individual foot shape.
No two pairs of Duckfeet are exactly alike. Every pair of shoes is treated individually during production, the natural tanning and processing by hand allows for subtle variations in the leather. These variations are highlighted by the particular way you wear them, which imbues each shoe with personality, your story, for your life.
Odense features premium full grain, double stitched and reinforced 100% leather uppers, insole, leather midsole and 100% wool lining. Our non-toxic, vegetable tanned leather is manufactured according to strict environmental standards. It is drum dyed using high quality, non-toxic dyes and specially treated to be water and dirt repellant. Using traditional European Veldtschoen construction the upper is built up by hand over a flat last then the midsole is double stitched to our 100% natural crepe rubber outsole. Every pair of Duckfeet comes into contact with many experienced hands before they are placed in their box and fitted to your feet.

We like to put our best foot forward, but are the shoes we wear the best for our feet?
Good shoes (in our books) are defined by their shape, and specifically, the shape of the toe box. A wider toe box allows your feet to move naturally and breathe and accommodates the natural swelling that occurs to our feet throughout the day.
The health benefits of wider footwear can be felt all over your body. Initially, your toes will thank you, for not cramping or constricting them in footwear that confines your feet and in-turn, your movement.
Your lower back, legs, hips, and posture will also appreciate the space you give your toes. Wider footwear encourages total body movement, ensuring your muscles stay active and work harmoniously to support you.
Move more freely and choose footwear with wider toe boxes; your body will thank you for it.
The 5–8mm rule. Pick the size whose internal length is 5–8mm longer than your foot. That space lets the foot expand through the day and as the toes push forward in movement — and it's what keeps you clear of friction and "blue nails" from a shoe that's too short.
Between sizes? Duckfeet run a touch short, so size up. The leather softens and stretches in the width as they break in. And factor in the thickness of the socks you'll actually wear.
Wool linings and insoles. Wool-lined boots take more volume you may need to size up. If you're hovering between sizes, our Wool Insoles take up roughly a quarter size. They can be very handy for breaking in the shoe.
Two exceptions. The København and Mols fit a quarter to half size smaller.
