The Crosby Boot features a lace-up design that comes supplemented via a vertical side-entry zipper on the inside of the ankles. This allows for a snug and secure fit while still being incredibly easy to put on or remove.
Brilliantly balancing form and function, the Crosby Boot is a contemporary lace-up boot with a Chelsea-inspired silhouette. Crafted from top-shelf materials and bestowed with a host of thoughtful design details, the Crosby Boot is made by hand in Portugal by a family-owned and operated, multigenerational boot-maker. Built on top of deep-lug outsoles and pieced together using an ultra-rugged Goodyear Welt construction, the Crosby Boot affords the stability and grip needed to lend itself to off-grid use while its clean, timeless design allows it to be equally conducive to daily-wearing in the city.
Designed and manufactured utilizing a spare-no-expense approach, the Crosby Boot features a set of uppers cut from premium cow suede that’s sourced from Germany. Fitted with a full Italian calfskin leather lining, the uppers are 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 Crosby the comfort of a sneaker while maintaining the durability and lifespan of a heritage boot.
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.
