Our notes
Urban Environment x WVSport.
We built a carbon neutral boot for the urban environment with WVSport active footwear specifications.
Classic urban silhouette. Vibram outsoles. Waterproof uppers. Patented comfort Support System.
Urban Active Footwear.
Lace these up for a boot you can depend on every day, all day. They go with everything, can be worn everywhere and will last.
Get traction from the Vibram outsoles suitable for all surfaces from gravel to tarmac to trails.
Wear in all weathers thanks to the certified waterproof construction upto the eyelets, so your feet stay dry in rain, snow and splashes.
Wear for miles and keep on all day thanks to the light weight construction, flexible outsoles, removable cushioned anatomic insoles, patented comfort Support System and generous padding around the tongue and collar.
WVSport models are designed and produced in the foothills of the Dolomite Hills, Italy.
Each model is created using CAD design technology that simulates the different phases of the walking experience.
Advanced components and construction methods are used to create the models like the use of Vibram soles and a patented Support System which means the fit is always comfortable and secure.
Development samples are lab tested for days for their abrasion resistance, durability and water resistance. New models can take months sometimes years to develop.
The factory features one of the largest photovoltaic plants in Italy which means that 70% of the power used to produce WVSport footwear is from solar.
As well as working under EU employment, discrimination and health & safety law the factory has their own Charter of Human Responsibilities (or Code of Ethics) which helps ensure the company is committed to respecting the rights, work and dignity of its employees.
For sourcing the materials to create each model we work with the factory using a traceability system that enables us to trace back every step in the production process so we always know what has been used and where it has come from.

I had to write a review after coming to the page to reorder my beloved boots after 3 years of hard labor and finding some less than pleased customers.
I work 8 hour shifts, 4 days a week, on concrete in the wellness aisle of a health market. I have worn these boots for almost every shift for 3 years, as well as at amusement parks, museums and gardens. They have great support without being at all heavy. I tested several other work boots before settling on these. They amaze me. They are my choice for any long days of walking or working. I love the style as well and often get compliments and requests for where I got them.
In response to the other reviews - I did purchase inserts for my arches and I don't wear them as rain or snow boots - I am diligent about wiping them off if they get wet. (For waterproof boots I highly recommend the WVSport Snow Boots - they are amazing in rain and snow - being completely waterproof. I wear them all year. I am in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States. I have had them for 5 years and they still look brand new).
I am replacing my Urban boots now as the front has just started to flake where the shoe bends at the ball of the foot and I want to invest in a full footbed insert as I have dug a groove with my toes.
Excited to get my new pair.
I'm really happy with my boots. I ordered them as I couldn't find waterproof boots anywhere else that didn't have leather in them. I'm so glad I splashed out on these boots as they have been inredibly comfortable from the start and have been keeping my feet cosy and dry. I've worn the boots to the office - they look smart for office attire. And I've also worn them through parks and fields where they got pretty muddy. They were easy to clean and back to taking me to the office in the next instance. Will definitely order from Will's Vegan Store again when I next need shoes. Very impressed. Time will tell how long they last, but after a couple of months they look and feel like new despite their wet weather adventures with me.
I love these boots! Not only are they smart looking they have stood up to our winter weather here. Very comfy I’ve worn them all day as well. I would recommend!
I've bought two pairs of these boots, the first lasted a little over a year before the uppers began to crack and flake to the point of looking too damaged. I bought a replacement pair but these only lasted about 6 months before the same thing started happening (pics). Wills have been helpful and given me a credit to the value of the boots, but really I just want them to last longer!

I bought these as already have the WV Sports hiking boots which have always been very comfortable. I was expecting the same comfort in these but they rub causing blisters and generally are not comfortable. I did contact Wills who advised me to wear plasters and thicker socks until the boots are worn in. I’ve done this for 2 months now which should be long enough to wear in but they are still uncomfortable. I really wanted these to work and am so disappointed ☹️
