Entry Description

The "Buckled up" boots are vintage inspired leather boots with a modern flare. The boots (and matching gloves) feature all sustainably sourced vintage buckles that are all unique and individual. Deadstock lambskin leather was used for the boots, and the heels are hand carved and sanded out of wood (by me). I've always been inspired by vintage fashion and antiques; I believe that recycling hardware and jewelry to incorporate into modern fashion is a sustainable way to add a unique touch to accessories and footwear.
