Why we love the Baltimore

The Baltimore is a contemporary Chealsea boot on a chunky sole, with a treated and water repellent outer leather, and a water resistant inner membrane.  So why is a leather rain boot a better option than one in plastic? Because it's much more versatile and no one will even know you're wearing a rain boot. Leather ages beautifully, unlike plastic, and won't crack or get dry, and unlike plastic, leather is breathable and wont choke your feet.

Fit: Fits most feet.

Colour: Black on a black sole.

Heel hight: Approximately 4 cm at its highest point in the back and 2,5 at the toe.

Materials: Sole made of thermoplastic rubber. Leather working group certified upper leather with water-repellent treatment applied by manufacturers, always with an environmental concern. Lined with breathable fabric and a water resistant membrane for breathability and comfort.

Made in Portugal, under strict European environmental regulations. Our factories are powered by 100 % renewable energy.

Wear with: The Baltimore is the perfect everyday boot, that has no limitations when it comes to styling. Wear with a parkas and a knit for a comfy and ready-for-any-type-of-wheather look in fall, or with wool socks and a down jacket in winter. Since this boot does not have a warm lining (add a warm wool sock on a cold day), The Baltimore can be worn as a rain boot even in spring and summer. 

Care: The outer leather surface of The Baltimore is already treated to be resistant to water, so no need for any extra care from your end - it's a jump-in-and-go type of boot. If your The Baltimore boot gets dirty just use a damp cloth and/or a gentle brush to wipe off the leather, then let dry before using your boot again.

WHY WE LOVE THE ALEXIA HIGH ECO

Aside from looking amazing The Alexia high eco is a highly practical, super sustainable and very cool boot. Its outer leather is chrome free and eco, inner lining in fuzzy wool, and in between is a water resistant membrane that makes sure your feet stays dry. Need we say more? 

Fit: Choose your normal size. Fits most feet, from narrow to normal and wider. 

Colour: Black on a black sole.

Heel hight: 3 cm at the heel and 2 cm at the toe.

The grain sometimes has small differences in its finish, meaning the grain does not always have the exact same flatness and finish even within the same pair. This is because the leather has been tanned in a non toxic process. This gives a natural patina, and does not effect the overall look of the shoe.
