The 3450 in Maryam horsebutt. Same last and same silhouette as our tea-core 3450, rebuilt in the leather our workshop and our boot partner both wanted first.

Maryam's horsebutt has a texture and a quiet lustre that photographs do not carry. Next to another leather, in person, the difference reads immediately. Built on Goodyear welt construction, with an Italian VIBRAM® sole under the ball of the foot and a Cat's Paw heel, finished with brass hardware so the boot ages across all of itself and not only in the leather.

    • Size & Fit Guide

      Our boots are made in standard US boot sizing. We recommend ordering your usual US boot size — for example, if you wear US 10D, choose size 10.

      1. Standard sizing

      If you normally wear a whole size (e.g. 9, 10, 11), order the same size.
      → If you wear US 10D, choose size 10.

      2. Half sizes (e.g. 8.5, 9.5)

      If your usual size is not available, we recommend sizing up.
      → 9.5 → choose 10

      3. Wide feet (E / EE width)

      If you typically wear wide sizes, we recommend sizing up for a more comfortable fit.

      If you need further help, please check the size chart or contact customer service.

    Timeless Construction. Repairable. Reliable. Reasonably Priced.

    Our boots use Goodyear welt construction, known for its strength, water resistance, and easy resoling. This method lets you replace the sole without damaging the upper, making the boots truly long-lasting. Made to be worn hard, repaired easily, and kept for years — all at a price that stays fair.

    Tea-Core Leather Made to Evolve

    Dark on the surface, natural core underneath. With wear, warm tones emerge, creating depth and contrast over time. Built strong for the ride, refined for everyday wear, and made to last.
