Our new simple ankle lace up boots are a great everyday shoe, that can be styled for a historical or vintage look, for various occasions and across seasons. We call these "Cobble Skippers", inspired by the incredible portraits of Victorian Children in London's working class tenements (after "Spitafields Nippers" book by Horace Warner). These are sturdy boots, resistant and stable enough to run around old cobbled streets, thanks to their low heel (2cm) and sturdy Goodyear Welted leather sole, with a thin anti-slip rubber membrane. The fit is generous, but true so you can choose your usual size. If in between sizes, best to size down. The overall fit is relaxed, so these could be suitable for wider feet, or can be worn with thicker socks. The pointed toe adds a timeless elegance, without discomfort. These shoes are MADE TO ORDER, so the delivery time will be from 6 to 10 weeks. Our broadest size range yet, we can make these from a EU34 to a EU45. The Goodyear Welt sole can be endlessly replaced, making these boots a very good investment. These boots are hand made in Portugal, in a small family run factory. No plastic involved, they are sustainable and should last a really long time. The leather will age beautifully. With good care, these boots could last a lifetime. 🌿🌍 Buy Less- Buy better! 🌍 🌿 ✈️ 📦 For UK and Canada please note you may be liable to pay import taxes or Customs.
