Heritage Origin (Crepe Sole & San Diego Upper)
Nestled in the Cederberg mountains lies the sleepy town of Wupperthal. The town is accessible only by one tarred road and a lot of patience. It is home to South Africa's oldest shoe factory, which was also the very first commercial producer of veldskoen shoes.
The Origin design is simple, elegant, steadfast, and strong. Like the shoes that were produced in Wupperthal, each pair is crafted with love, patience, and honed skill.
The Origin is everything a Veldskoen should be. It's our tribute to the place where it all began.

Comfortable and durable product that can be used in the veld and meeting room. Made to be comfortable for your toes!
Dawie K. 5/5 Verified
Of course, it is a bit decadent to have shoes shipped from South Africa to Germany—as if there were no shoe retailers in Germany. We men don't buy shoes all that often, and I am certain that my Heritage Origins will be with me for many, many years.

My second pair of Veldskoen. First pair lasted way beyond my expectation. Comfortable and long lasting. True South African quality. With my new ones I expected at least some initial wearing in pains….. None! Keep up it up. PROUDLY SOUTH AFRICAN

Definitely my favourite pair of shoes in the cupboard. I don't need anything else, frankly. Except perhaps a pair of plakkies for the weekends in summer. ;)
Ross N. 5/5 Verified
I’m very happy with them. On the first day, I thought they are rough and would cause chafing. But by the end of the day, I was delighted with how comfortable they are, how well they fit, and how enjoyable they are to wear.

The delivery was very quick, and when the shoe arrived it was exactly as I had seen it online when I ordered it.

Well made with quality materials. I did not struggle with the need to wear in a leather shoe.
Hugh G. 5/5 Verified
Comfy and stylish. I will definitely add more styles to my wardrobe over time. Thank you!
Jackie W. 5/5 Verified
Very comfortable shoes, and I'm very happy with my purchase. They look well made, and of good quality. I did find that the shoes run a little bit on the larger side. I generally wear a size 10 shoe and have relatively wide feet, but based on reviews decided to go for a size 9. I'm glad I did as the 9 is still quite roomy, so a 10 would have been far too big.
