Lace up and step into this episode of This Is Africa, The Podcast as Andy chats with Gale from the legendary Courteney Boot Company — makers of the toughest, classiest safari boots on the planet. From dusty trails inspired by the great Frederick Courteney Selous to photo shoots with John Sharp, Gale brings the stories behind the boots to life.
We talk legacy, leather, and the art of making boots that can survive the African bush and still look good with a blazer. Throw in some behind-the-scenes laughs and a few tales you won’t read on the label, and you've got an episode as well-built as the boots themselves.
Adventure, history, and boots tougher than a buffalo — all in one episode.
