An amazing journey with the experience etched into the boot itself.

These boots have exceeded anything I could have planned for them. They have been so much fun to put on in the morning and wear as I get to ready for the day. The click on the tile has become a familiar sound that shares my relaxed cadence, it’s almost melodic. Everything that I have done in these boots and how they carried easy task flawlessly has demonstrated how much essential a tool a good pair of boots are. I am genuinely excited to wear through many soles in these and see them write their own history!

Q&A

Why did you choose this item?

Availability: Custom

I always enjoyed the idea of a monkey boot but had yet to find one I loved. I was curious about a MTO boot and stumbled across Jakkrabbits. I wanted a taller boot that was unique. They had mentioned that they had a brand new last and pattern if I was willing to try. Well what a happy random thing to pop up. I worked with them to pick contrasting leather but was suggested to use the same leather and over-dye the area I wanted darker. So here we ended up with these gorgeous boots!

How did you determine your size?
