The Legend Returns: The Real King-Black African Elephant – The Greatest of All Time
A Giant Among Legends. The Real King Has Returned.
Toehold doesn’t follow trends. We follow truth. And the truth is this: The Real King Black African Elephant isn’t just another flip-flop. It’s our all-time best seller—the most legendary release we’ve ever made.
Meet the inspiration behind the legend: the Black African Elephant. Iconic. Iron-willed. A symbol of power, wisdom, and grace. Revered across the savannas and etched into the soul of the continent, he’s not just a mystical creature—he’s the living heart of a story older than time itself. And now, that spirit lives beneath your feet.
Born from full-grain, American black elephant leather—ethically sourced, federally regulated, and impossibly hard to acquire—The Real King is the embodiment of what we do best: resurrect lost craftsmanship, honor the untouchable, and build the impossible.
This isn’t just footwear. It’s conservation through creation. The sad irony? Conservation once meant hiding beauty away. We say no more. These rare hides—once discarded, misunderstood, or locked in vaults—now serve a purpose: to walk, to live, to remind you that you are standing in something worth protecting.
Each pair is handcrafted with the precision of legacy artisanship and the soul of something ancient. It’s unapologetically bold. Unrepeatable. And absolutely unmatched.
Why You Want The Real King:
• All-Time Best Seller: Our most demanded, most revered creation.
• Ultra-exclusive: Limited run. Impossibly rare.
• Unyielding Quality: American leather. Master-built. Lifetime durability.
• Statement of Purpose: Not just fashion—a stance on preservation and power.
This isn’t for everyone. But then again, kings were never made for crowds.

Long live the legend.

Ethically Sourced Leather
We initially rejected the idea of using African leathers in our products. However, after learning about the role that exotic leathers play in conservation efforts, we changed our approach.
Our research revealed a thorough and ethical process. When an animal perishes, game wardens respond to harvest its remains accordingly. They distribute the meat to local villagers and turn the hide over to government officials. Those officials tag the hide and send it to a government-regulated tannery, while tracking it to ensure compliance with ethical and conservation standards. Toehold follows strict CITES laws that regulate the trade of endangered species and products.
By choosing our products, you’re doing more than investing in unmatched craftsmanship. Your purchase helps fund game warden wages, supports anti-poaching initiatives, and protects these exotic animals and their habitats for generations to come.
