Our Aviator Boots are built for everyday life — sturdy, grounded and effortless to wear through the seasons. They take the classic combat silhouette and elevate it with our rich Italian bio-based vegan leather (62–66% plant-origin materials), and they wear in beautifully: the uppers soften and mould to your stride and the shape of your foot the more you have them on.
The tall 12-eye lacing gives you full control over the fit — lace them tight so they sit close to the leg, or wear them looser for a more relaxed, easy look. Long, extra-strong laces (100% recycled polyester) wrap securely around the ankle through metal eyelets, with metal lace tips, and a woven WVS pull tab and rear finger-loop make slipping them on and off simple (all hardware 100% zamak, a durable zinc alloy). Underfoot, a durable TR outsole with a light tread runs up into a stacked block heel — a mid-height lift that adds a bit of shape without losing stability or comfort.
Versatile and timeless, these lean whichever way you style them. Worn with turned-up straight or wide-leg jeans and the laces tight they're pure utility; loosened off under a floaty midi dress or skirt with thick tights they do that combat-boot-softening-a-feminine-look thing that never really dates. They ground tailored trousers and a big winter coat, hold their own with layered knits and a parka, and work just as well with the simplest jeans-and-a-jumper.
Step in and there's a soft Portuguese vegan suede lining and a cushioned, memory-foam-topped insole waiting — the reason they stay comfortable through a full day on them. First released in 2015 and refined ever since, they've become one of our most loved and most worn WVS staples.
- 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
- A durable TR outsole with a light tread, running up into a stacked block heel. There's just enough height to lift you a little without ever being impractical, and the solid TR build is hard-wearing and grippy — it holds on pavements and wet streets and takes most surfaces without you having to think about it.
- 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 and lace tips — both 100% zamak (a durable zinc alloy)
- 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
- Water Resistance
- Water-resistant for everyday wear – keeps you dry in rain, puddles, wet streets, and most winter conditions. Just avoid heavy saturation or full submersion.
- Width
- D width fitting – a slightly wider fit with more volume than standard
- Fit
- Order your usual size. Half size? Wider width fittings size up, narrower width fittings size down.
- Heel Height
- 4.5 cm
- Toe Height
- 1.0 cm
- Toe Shape
- Round toe
- Instep
- Flat insole through the arch
- Break-in Time
- You should find these comfy straight out of the box.

Wow, ich bin sehr begeistert von diesen Steifeletten! Sehr gute Qualität, optimale Passform, sehr bequem, ich bin mehr als zufrieden und werde sie sicher noch in schwarz kaufen, weil sie mir so gut gefallen! Der Versand war auch schnell und die Schuhe waren sehr gut verpackt. Ich bin wirklich glücklich und kann diese Stiefel und den Shop nur weiter empfehlen!
I've been basically buying boots from this store for the better part of ten years now. They're not cheap, but I was convinced by their commitment to ethical practices, and each pair would last me 2-3yrs. Unfortunately for whatever reason, the quality has really gone down. I've had this pair of boots (my third) for a year, and yesterday they snapped in half. The pair before that lasted about a year and a half.
Hi,
I wanted to personally reach out to get in touch, I am really sorry to hear about the problems with your purchase and that they did not perform as you would expect. I'm really sorry to hear they've snapped in half after just a year, especially as you've been a loyal customer for ten years. I can assure you that quality is very import to us, and during this time we have actually improved the quality of materials we have used and work with some of the best quality partner factories in Portugal in Italy.
Saying this due to the nature of manufacturing, sometimes quality issues can happen - we will always refund, replace or try to repair any purchase if you are not happy at any point - just let us know and we always take care of our customers.

Please let me know if I can be any more help at all,

Love these so well made & comfortable.
I love these boots, they are very comfortable and super stylish! I buy a new pair every couple of years.
Well. These boots look gorgeous, just the right mixture of ‚cute‘ and ‚cheeky‘. But after a minute, they start taking my socks off until I walk on the rolled-up sock fabric, which is at least as uncomfortable as it sounds. My heels get cold and sore. It may be because, as recommended, I ordered my usual size 39 (perfect with the ballerina flats, whereas the Oxford Brogues I ordered at the same time turned out to be a bit large). They did seem a bit small when I tried them on, but I thought they would widen enough once broken in. Unfortunately, they don‘t. As much as I like their look, I am quite unhappy with them.
Hi Tamara,
I wanted to personally reach out to get in touch, I am really sorry to hear about the problems with your purchase and that they did not perform as you would expect. I'm really sorry these keep pulling your socks off when you walk, that sounds really frustrating and uncomfortable.
