It’s been a while since we’ve had Italian Yeti boots. Jet-black goat fur. The toe is calf hair. The lining is mouton. Lightweight and easy to walk in with WINNA rubber soles. Deadstock!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThey’re so perfect, there’s nothing more to say.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThere’s no identifying label, but I believe these boots are likely from an Italian manufacturer called Oscar Sport.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhile I was researching these, I stumbled upon another interesting piece of European culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSkiing is hugely popular among young people and celebrities in Europe as a winter pastime, but apparently, the party after skiing—or rather, the party itself—is just as important! Haha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\"Après-ski\" is French for \"after ski,\" and it refers to the culture of changing into these kinds of snow boots after enjoying the slopes to go drink and dance until morning!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of this, these winter boots, which might generally be considered \"too much\" for everyday wear, are sometimes called \"après-ski boots.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eI've lived in Europe for some time now, but I honestly didn't know this was an established cultural term.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt made me happy to realize there are still so many local customs here that we could never imagine in Japan, where we were born and raised.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt seems this company, Oscar Sport, has been making après-ski boots for over 50 years, focusing on keeping you warm in snowy mountains while maintaining ultra-high quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSo, regarding these little Yeti friends: of course, you don’t have to wear them on snowy mountains—I’d love to see them worn as a fashion statement on the asphalt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnyway, the condition of this pair is just incredible. Absolutely pristine. The lining is mouton, so they are incredibly warm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThey come with decorative laces featuring suede tassels. Please check the photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnd the WINNA soles, which I occasionally see on Italian boots like these, are fantastic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThey’re flexible rubber soles with no hardening. Durable, light, and soft. Ideal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThey are a size 40, and while my usual size is 38.5-39 (approx. 24-25cm), they weren't too big and I could wear them with room to spare! I could easily walk in them all day with regular socks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you use an insole or make some adjustments, I think someone who is a 24cm could wear them without any issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the second time we’ve had these super long-hair boots at TOTO, and while I truly love them, they are quite hard to come by.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eI also think the color black is surprisingly rare. Highly recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e送料込み\u003c\/span\u003e \/ Free Shipping\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv id=\"shopify-section-product-template\" class=\"shopify-section\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv id=\"ProductSection\" data-section-id=\"product-template\" data-section-type=\"product-template\" data-image-zoom-type=\"lightbox\" data-show-extra-tab=\"false\" data-extra-tab-content=\"\" data-cart-enable-ajax=\"true\" data-enable-history-state=\"true\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-single__description rte\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv id=\"shopify-section-product-template\" class=\"shopify-section\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv id=\"ProductSection\" data-section-id=\"product-template\" data-section-type=\"product-template\" data-image-zoom-type=\"lightbox\" data-show-extra-tab=\"false\" data-extra-tab-content=\"\" data-cart-enable-ajax=\"true\" data-enable-history-state=\"true\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-single__description rte\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"shopify-section\" id=\"shopify-section-product-template\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-enable-history-state=\"true\" data-cart-enable-ajax=\"true\" data-extra-tab-content=\"\" data-show-extra-tab=\"false\" data-image-zoom-type=\"lightbox\" data-section-type=\"product-template\" data-section-id=\"product-template\" id=\"ProductSection\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-single__description rte\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e素材 material : goat fur \/ mouton lined \/ WINNA rubber sole\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s3\"\u003eサイズ size : women 40 fits 24.5-26cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s3\"\u003eヒールの高さ heel height : approx. 3cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s3\"\u003eアウトソール outsole : 28cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s3\"\u003e状態 condition : dead stock\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"Quantity-Form-template--22968438292823__main\" class=\"product-form__input product-form__quantity\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"TOTO.CZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49941678195031,"sku":null,"price":60400.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0513\/3097\/3881\/files\/IMG_7139.jpg?v=1738863907","url":"https:\/\/totocz.com\/en\/products\/black-yeti-apres-ski-boots","provider":"TOTO","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
