Portuguese leather rubber boots

Leather boots with a front zipper.

Platform boots with a thick rubber sole.

Above all, the exquisite khaki-brown color of this leather is just perfect. It’s so stylish.

The leather quality is very soft and has aged beautifully. It looks like it will only get better with time.

The gold front zip also suits the overall vibe perfectly.

These aren't vintage, but were made in Portugal in the 2000s.

In fact, Portugal is a country with a thriving shoemaking industry, home to many skilled and diligent craftsmen.

It was in the 1970s that manufacturers from France, the UK, and elsewhere started moving their production from Italy and Spain

to Portugal in earnest.

Thanks in part to their diligent national character, Portugal was recognized for high quality and low labor costs,

allowing the industry to grow rapidly and reach its peak in the 90s.

Since moving to Europe, I’ve learned that after Italy and Spain,

many leather shoes are actually made in Portugal, and I am always impressed by their high quality.

It might not be a familiar origin for many in Japan, but I highly recommend Portuguese-made shoes, just as I do their clothing.

Beyond their charming appearance, I think you’ll grow even more attached to them once you know a bit about their production background.
