tradesmen and trendsetters alike, the work boot now infiltrates all corners of the globe – from the
factory floor to the front row, breaking boundaries and crossing continents from Minnesota, Paris,
NYC & Tokyo.
From the great plains of Mississippi where the
Red Wing
boot was born, to the back streets of London where
Doc Martens
ruled the punk revolution, each city has its own interpretation on the workwear boot. It was in the side streets of Tuscany where

crafted its first model and the sleepy county of North Hampshire where
Grenson
made its name, and what do they all have in common? An artisanal legacy founded in form & function. Designed to do the job, whether that’s civil, sporting, military or medical, heritage bootmakers find new ways to innovate and adapt to the
