The Klara Black Nubuck

The Klara is designed for winter days when warmth, protection, and comfort need to work together. Crafted in soft nubuck leather with a PFAS-free water-repellent finish and lined in warm white shearling, it creates a warm and protective environment for the foot while maintaining a clean, grounded silhouette. The Klara is made for cold winter days, from everyday city wear to time spent outdoors.

A protective rubber toe cap shields the front of the boot from wear while adding durability where it matters most. The sturdy rubber sole provides stability and grip underfoot, giving the boot a practical, confident stance. Around the ankle, an adjustable drawstring allows the opening to be gently tightened, helping keep warmth inside while adding a subtle outdoor character to the design. The Klara works naturally with everyday winter wardrobes — from denim and knitwear to wool trousers or layered outerwear.

Like all Blankens shoes, The Klara is handcrafted in a small, family-run factory in northern Portugal. We work with responsibly sourced European leather from Gold Rated Leather Working Group tanneries, ensuring high material quality and a lower environmental impact. Nubuck leather is chosen for its soft, velvety surface and its ability to develop character over time, while the shearling lining provides natural warmth and insulation. Each pair is made with care and precision — craftsmanship designed to last through many winters.

At Blankens, we are a small team of women designing shoes for our own lives. We test, wear, and refine every style ourselves to make sure it truly works in everyday situations. Each design must have a clear purpose and feel natural in the wardrobe. We focus on comfort, thoughtful construction, and design that adds something to an outfit. We make shoes that earn their place — the ones you reach for again and again.

The Klara is a women’s winter ankle boot crafted in nubuck leather with a PFAS-free water-repellent finish and a warm white shearling lining. The rounded silhouette is reinforced with a protective rubber toe cap and sits on a sturdy rubber sole designed for grip and stability. An adjustable drawstring at the ankle allows the shaft to be tightened for warmth and comfort. The Klara combines practical winter function with a soft, minimal design — a cold-weather boot designed for everyday wear.
