A proud collaboration
At Veldskoen, we thrive on partnering with innovative local brands that share our values. Our collaboration with Eight Feet, a wine and coffee label founded by the four Du Toit brothers, is a testament to this. With roots deep in South Africa’s soil, Eight Feet brings the same dedication to their wine and coffee that we bring to our shoes.
This shared ethos of family values, hard work, and pushing boundaries through collaboration made the partnership a natural fit. Together, we’ve created a boot that is more than just a product; it’s a celebration of brotherhood, craftsmanship, and the South African spirit of perseverance.
The du Toit brothers, Pieter-Steph, Johan, Anton, and Daniel know a thing or two about hard work. Before the accolades of professional rugby and business success, they spent their childhood helping their family build Kloovenburg, their father’s wine estate. From stomping grapes to selling olive products at the local market, their story is one of dedication and unity. And now, that same passion and family bond has translated into the creation of the Eight Feet Veldskoen.
