OUR NAME SAYS WHERE WE’RE FROM. NOW LET US TELL YOU WHAT WE’RE ABOUT.

OUR NAME SAYS WHERE WE’RE FROM. NOW LET US TELL YOU WHAT WE’RE ABOUT.

The love for our city and its reputation runs deep.

HISTORY IS IN OUR MAKING.

Named for the figures and landmarks that have helped make Milwaukee what it is today, our boots are a hand-crafted nod to our city’s wealth of industry and work ethic. They’re made for those who crave real craftsmanship. Those who work hard and are fearless when it comes to failure. For those who hold on to true grit, determination, and will be damned if their boots don’t follow suit.

Craft

IN ORDER TO BRANCH OUT,

WE WENT BACK TO OUR ROOTS.

The first leather tannery in the city of Milwaukee opened in 1842 and throughout the next several decades, our city became the largest leather manufacturing center in the world. The city was responsible for creating everything from boots and saddles, to jackets and materials for the Civil War. Leather is in Milwaukee’s roots and it’s in our’s too.

Quality

HAND-CRAFTED.

BECAUSE WE BELIEVE IN QUALITY OVER QUANTITY.

Like our city in past centuries, we are committed to superior quality and craftsmanship. This is why we own our production process from tanning the hides to create the leather ourselves, to hand-crafting the upper and the sole. Not many companies can say that anymore, but we aren’t afraid of a little more hard work. We put pride in every stitch. We promise to continue creating high quality leather goods, using the best materials we can get our hands on. And we’ll make sure everything we make can withstand anything thrown its way.

Manufacturing

FROM OUR FAMILY TO YOURS.

FOUR GENERATIONS AND COUNTING.

We’ve been handcrafting leather goods for other brands for decades in our family owned and operated leather tannery and factories in Chennai. After four generations, we finally decided to bring that same craftsmanship and quality to the market directly. We knew there was no better place to start than here in our city of Milwaukee, where our corporate headquarters is still located today.

In 2019 we opened our flagship retail store right here in our neighborhood, historical Walker’s Point, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Within a year we added e-commerce and made our products available nationwide. In the years that followed, we expanded beyond our roots in Milwaukee and Chennai to Japan, Europe, Dubai and more. And we’re just getting started.

ALL BOOT. NO BULLSHIT.

We’re a small team with a big work ethic, and we make no exceptions when it comes to quality. Like many of you, we believe that good things take time. We adhere to the proverbial saying “haste makes waste.” We take pride in the amount of time it takes to make each boot, something that fast-fashion will never understand.
