A raw material telling an informal poem.

Composed entirely of vegetable-tanned leather, the draped and organic shapes of the autonomous boot, formed through wet molding, came together intuitively and unrestrained.


With each movement, the shoe shapes itself to you, a silent dance of becoming. It carries the weight of hardship and the lightness of prosperity, bound and unbound—every step a gesture toward autonomy.
