This Diesel Boot features our new Dr. Sole outsole, which was developed for our last. This bottom is incredibly hard-wearing and offers the classic Dr. Sole half-sole silhouette. 

American Bison hides are known for their heavier weight and natural distinctive grain patterns. The prominent pebble effect varies throughout the leather, making each cut unique. This article is tanned with a healthy amount of waxes and oils to create a rich color and pull-up effect. The distinct look and gutsy body of Bison hide make it an excellent choice for Goodyear-welt boots. 

Note: This is not a printed grain. The grain pattern on each pair is individual and will vary.

  • Goodyear-welt construction
  • Leo last
  • Genuine American Bison Leather from Seidel Tanning
  • Full-grain kip leather lining
  • 360º flat welt
  • Antique brass eyelets and speed hooks
  • Vegetable-tanned leather insole, welt, and midsole
  • Cork filler with steel shank 
  • Full-grain leather heel counters

  • Dr. Sole Supergrip half-sole and heel

Every pair crafted in our factory on Xiamen Island, China

The Leo last runs a half-size large. Customers typically order a half-size down from their average shoe size.

Diesel Boot Black Bison

$435.00

Made with

Goodyear-welt Construction

Renowned for its durability and ability to be resoled repeatedly, Goodyear-welt construction involves stitching a welt—a strip of leather—around the shoe's perimeter, creating a cavity. After filling the cavity with the shank and cork, the sole is attached, providing strength and water resistance. This construction method results in shoes that are not only long-lasting but also easily repairable, making them a timeless investment in quality craftsmanship.

Our Leo Last

Derived from our experience fitting and developing various orthopedic-shaped lasts designed for specific foot shapes, the Leo features a moderate arch, heel control, medial support, and forefront freedom. It embodies a traditional welted shoe shape while prioritizing all-day support and comfort. 

Our mission

Providing Excellent Service

Our priority has been putting customers in shoes that properly fit them and standing by our amazing products. Many customers have found they have been wearing an incorrect size for years. This has been lost in the market today. We offer the majority of our footwear in D, E, and EEE widths to provide well-fitting footwear.

We encourage customers to ask our team for assistance to ensure the best fit.

Reviews

Absolutely Outstanding!

"Absolutely outstanding boot. The fit, finish, and quality of leather at this price point is fantastic. And the boot and leather options are endless. I’ve already purchased multiple pairs of boots and my collection is growing rapidly. As a former Allen Edmonds customer all I can say is thank you Grant Stone for stepping up to provide the quality products I use to get from Allen Edmonds. But not anymore! I’m a Grant Stone fan now. You have won me over and since I’m located in the same state as your headquarters I get quick shipment on new boot purchases. Even better!"

— Vito S. (5/5)

Black Bison on the roam.

"Beautiful black bison boots. They are really very nice and comfortable. There is a flare that comes with them that can be seen with the green Dr. Sole’s on them. I wear mostly brown and variations of brown and tan boots and I really like these and have had several compliments about them. They are very stylish and can be worn in both a casual and professional setting. Great to roam the city streets and then look amazing while attending an event at the art museum. I jumped at the chance to do the preorder and they were well worth the wait."

— Christopher M. (5/5)

Exceptional quality!

"Love these boots! The quality is exceptional and they look amazing. I’m a 7D in Nike sneakers and in Redwing Iron Ranger, Nicks, Whites and Grantstone Shoes I’m a 6D and the fit is amazing. BTW I now own 13 pairs of Grantstone Shoes, boots, shoes, and loafers and all are my favorite there just that nice and always get compliments."

— Bradford M. (5/5)

Sturdy boots!

"I received the black bison Diesel boots last week. They are heavy but fit comfortably. I wore them all day on their first outing with no signs of discomfort. The bison is thick and sturdy, and will likely last a lifetime! The texture is just as I was hoping. . . not too deep on the front, with more texture on the upper, allowing for greater versatility across occasions. I would have preferred narrower welts, but that's a personal thing."

— Dale (5/5)

Great half sole boot !

"Beautiful boots and I love the new half sole. Some slightly uneven stitching on welt/sole. Leather is buttery soft, and I hope it’s not too delicate."

— Kevin P. (4/5)

Favorite Lace-up Boot

"I have a pair of Iron Rangers and Wolverine 1000 Mile boots. These Grant Stones are definitely my favorite. While the other two are great boots, the Diesel construction is noticeably better. The inner lining leather is buttery smooth, and the green soles just look awesome."

— LJK (5/5)

A New Favorite

"The black Bison Diesel is currently my sixth pair of Grant Stone boots (one Edward, one Garrison, two Brass Boots and one more Diesel) and this one is definitely my current favorite. I really like the look and feel of this remarkable leather with its distinct texture. Plus I appreciate the contrasting midsole/stitching as well. Breaking in may be a bit more challenging though (maybe due to the otherwise great Dr Sole?). Half size down from my Brannock seems perfect. Overall a winner for sure!"

— Hermann D. (5/5)

Awesome boots

"I'm very happy with these. Sturdy, handsome, subtle detail with the Bison grain. No regrets."

— Michael K. (5/5)

Great boot, runs large.

"Beautiful leather, really well made and packaged. Just ran too big."

— David R. (3/5)

The Style Sledge Hammer in Black Bison

"These boots are gorgeous and built to last. I love the unique grain quality of the Bison leather. The fit is perfect with the size recommendation to go one half size down from my standard size. The black on natural tan sole really pops too!"

— Robert M. (5/5)
