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.

Wonderfully Warm Odense Boots

The Odense are really wonderful boots. Well made, warm, stylish and comfortable (my toes are so happy to have more space). These are the first pair Duckfeet shoes I’ve owned, and I’m loving them so much that I’m already planning which design to get next.

Beautiful boot

The Odense I ordered arrived in good time and I am very happy with them. They are so comfortable and very cute. The quality is first class. If I have anything negative to say it's that I thought the chocolate colour I ordered, was actually a bit darker. No worries though. Still love them.

Odense boots

So sturdy and well made- love the chocolate colour and should age well. Very comfortable and haven't needed to wear them in so far. I only recently learnt they can be resoled so will last a lifetime. Love Duckfeet shoes in general. I also have a pair of Mols

Absolutely Love my Duckfeet

I have been contemplating a pair of Duckfeet for a couple of years. I purchased the Odense for a trip to New York in Winter. I was worried they may take time to break in but they were comfortable from first time I wore them. A big investment but finally my toes get to spread out in the shoe! I would love to purchase more styles.

Like a hug for your feet

Recently purchased a pair of Odense boots to survive the incredibly cold Canberra region winters. These boots are beautiful. Size is accurate, wool lining is just what I need in this place, and I have barely had to break them in. They are incredibly comfortable. I waited a number of years to buy these boots, I can say they are well worth the wait!!!

Oh my goodness!

These are absolute perfection. I am obsessed. I work outside treating horses and always have cold feet in winter. These are exactly what I've been after. They are so comfortable, even from the first wear, and the quality is unbeatable. I have been eyeing them off for years, and am so pleased to now own a pair! I'll certainly be back for more if I need some that aren't as toasty!

I work in an environment where I am on my feet most of the day. I found these looking for a shoe that is durable and long lasting as well as comfortable. Two years in and the shoes are still going strong. I have replaced the soles once in this period but was told it was very uncommon for them to need replacing so soon. Given that previous shoes were lasting me only 6 months before needing replacing, I am completely satisfied and wish to recommend them to anyone as a shoe to invest in. A quote I have lived by since hearing it is "I can't afford to buy cheap things". This is a Buy it For Life motto and these shoes are testament to that motto. Two years in and these shoes feel like a second skin. They are a worthwhile investment and I am very thankful I have found them. Highly recommended.
