About Us
At Redback Boots, we're driven by a commitment to durability, comfort, and authentic craftsmanship. Built for those who spend long hours on their feet - on worksites, in workshops, and out in the elements. Our boots are designed to perform in the toughest conditions. But behind every pair is more than just tough materials and clever design. It’s a story of heritage, passion, and a dedication to quality that spans generations.
A Proud Australian Legacy of Craftsmanship
Redback Boots is an Australian company owned and operated by the Cloros family, whose boot-making heritage dates back five generations to the early 1900s. The company is proudly 100% Australian-owned, and all Redback boots are handmade in Australia. This commitment reflects the Cloros family’s deep connection to the country that has supported their success, as well as their unwavering emphasis on quality and craftsmanship. Every step of the production process is carefully managed within their own factory in Sydney, ensuring consistent excellence in every pair.
Handcrafted to Withstand the Toughest Conditions
Redback Boots are built by hand with a focus on durability, comfort, and performance. Every pair is crafted with care and backed by decades of boot-making experience, ensuring they can handle demanding work environments without compromise.
Made in our family-owned factory using time-honoured methods, these boots are designed with real workers in mind - people who spend long hours on their feet and need footwear they can rely on. Since 1925, we’ve stayed true to this commitment, producing quality boots that deliver strength and support where it counts most.
Crafted from Tough, Full-Grain Leather
The durability of every Redback boot begins with the leather. We use only premium, full-grain cowhide - thicker, stronger, and more flexible than standard work boot materials - to deliver long-lasting comfort and protection.
Each hide is carefully selected and treated to meet the demands of real-world work. Whether it’s resistance to water, heat, or oil, our boots are built to handle tough environments without compromise. By blending traditional craftsmanship with modern techniques, we ensure every piece of leather is cut and finished for maximum durability and performance. Tough, resilient, and purpose-built - this is leather made to last.
