Avenue Boot
Combining elements from heritage boots and WW2-era combat boots, the Avenue Boot is a remarkably versatile piece of footwear built for daily use and beyond. Lending itself just as well to date night as it does days at the office or evenings at the pub, the Avenue Boot is meticulously crafted and finished entirely by hand using premium full-grain Pull-Up leather.
Technical Features
Patina-Ready Leather
Handcrafted in Portugal by a multi-generational family-run boot-maker, the Avenue Boot is constructed around a set of uppers cut from Pull-up leather. Known for its expedited break-in period, this full-grain hide benefits from a tanning process that sees the leather saturated in oils and waxes. This process not only bolsters water resistance and makes for a softer, more supple leather, but it also results in a lighter, underlying color being revealed when the leather is bent, stretched, or scratched. Consequently, Pull-up leather is practically guaranteed to develop a rich patina over time with use.
Better Leather, Better Boot
Designed and manufactured utilizing a spare-no-expense approach, the Avenue Boot features a set of uppers that are fitted with a full Italian calfskin leather lining and come mated to a rubber outsole separated by a genuine leather midsole. Another monumental part of what makes this boot so special is the fact that it features a real leather insole board and a natural latex insole capped off with Italian calf leather — giving the Avenue Boot the comfort of a sneaker while maintaining the durability and lifespan of a heritage boot.
A Modern Boot Born From Old-World Construction Techniques
Each boot is pieced together by hand using an ultra-rugged Goodyear welt construction. This multi-layer, mechanical join not only makes for an incredibly hardwearing piece of footwear, but it also allows the boot to be re-soled once worn out. In addition to practically guaranteeing a lifetime of dependable use, this tried-and-true construction technique also allows this boot to be passed down to future generations as a modern-day family heirloom. Because each boot is made by hand in small batches, AETHER is able to deliver a much higher level of craftsmanship, build quality, and overall fit and finish compared to mass-produced boots.
