Our notes
The "go anywhere, do anything" boot with deep-tread solid rubber outsoles. We build these to last you years.
They've been refined year after year since they were in our original 2013 lineup. Having products that aren't planned just for a season but to stay means we get the opportunity to go back to the same last, the same pattern, the same details — and keep making them better. It's how we try to make the best-quality, best-wearing vegan footwear we can.
Look at how much is going on in the upper. A stitched toe cap. A curved seam sweeping back across the quarters. Panels meeting in a long line down the side of the foot, and a fine stitch traced along the vamp. Antique metal eyelets (100% zamak) run up the lacing to three speed hooks at the top, so you can pull them tight through the foot and hook the last of it in one go. A big rear pull tab (100% recycled polyester), embroidered WVS, to haul them on. A WVS emboss on the tongue, and another set into the outsole.
Our signature Italian bio-based vegan leather (62–66% plant-origin materials), breathable and water-resistant, with a low sheen over the toe that creases in softly as you wear them. Portuguese vegan suede linings (100% PU), comfortable against the foot and better for breathability. Long, extra-strong laces (100% recycled polyester) with metal lace tips (100% zamak). A cushioned layered insole — soft memory foam over a recycled PU base (20% recycled PU). And underneath it all a hard-wearing rubber outsole (10% recycled rubber), deep lugs, a 3.5cm heel and a toe that lifts as you walk.
Four colours, four different boots really. Chestnut and tan are the warm ones — raw or mid-wash denim turned up over the laces, a flannel shirt, a heavy knit, a chore coat. Dark brown goes quieter and takes olive or stone chinos, an overshirt, a waxed jacket. Black is the sharpest — black or indigo denim and a leather jacket, or grey wool trousers and an overcoat when you want the boot carrying the weight of the outfit.
That tread grips on everything: pavements and wet cobbles, gravel, mud, park paths, trails. Rain, puddles and wet streets are no trouble.
- Upper
- Italian bio-based vegan leather (62–66% plant-origin materials)
- Lining
- Portuguese vegan suede (100% PU) – soft and comfortable against the foot, with a breathable suede texture that helps keep feet fresh
- Insole
- Cushioned layered insole – a soft memory foam top layer over a recycled PU base (20% recycled PU) cut to fit the shoe
- Outsole
- Hard-wearing rubber outsole made with 10% recycled rubber – a deep lugged tread for grip underfoot
- Laces
- Long, extra-strong laces (100% recycled polyester), with metal lace tips (100% zamak — a durable zinc alloy)
- Shank
- Steel shank for stability and support through the arch
- Hardware
- Metal eyelets up the lacing with three speed hooks at the top of each boot, all in 100% zamak (a durable zinc alloy) – hook the laces for quick lacing and a secure fit
- Construction
- Mounted (cemented) construction – the upper is lasted to shape and the outsole bonded directly underneath. The most widely used construction method in footwear, it gives a clean, flexible build, though the outsole isn't easily resoled

As others have noted, this is not a sturdy booy.
The little loop on the back of the shoe came off right away.
The sole completely detached after a couple of months of use.
NOT a sturdy boot.

I wanted to like these boots, but they don't hold up. After two months of use, the little loop on the back of the shoe came off when I was using it to get my foot in the shoe. After only 3 months of use, the heel came totally off of the shoe (see photo) rendering it unusable. I wouldn't recommend.
