Grain leather is the reason to choose this Ingleborough over the smooth-leather boots in the range. The surface is embossed into a pebbled texture, and that texture does something useful: it breaks up creasing, disguises the small knocks that any boot picks up in its first month, and softens around the foot rather than staying rigid. In mahogany the effect is a deep red-brown that catches light unevenly across the grain, so the boot looks worn-in early and stays looking that way.
The Ingleborough is Cheaney's hiker. It is built for genuine outdoor use, with a substantial construction and ankle support that a country brogue does not offer, and it runs on a Brit Grip rubber sole. Brit Grip is made for Cheaney by Itshide, an English sole maker, and its tread is patterned after the Union flag; in wear it behaves much like a commando sole, with the same resistance to wear and the same grip on loose ground.
It is built on the 12508 last, a rounded, generous shape that leaves room for a thick sock, and it is Goodyear welted, so it can be resoled when the tread finally goes.
