This season, Levi’s is launching a collection of premium leather ankle boots for men, inspired by minors boots sold by Levi Strauss during the gold rush in California in 1853. Made from the highest quality leathers provided by American tannery Horween Leathers. Each boot has a quality of assembly (type “veldtschoen” derived from Goodyear), with rivets positioned in strategic places to strengthen the weak points of the shoe – tribute to one of the distinctive features of the first iconic blue jeans, Levi’s 501. This boot also has a Vibram rubber sole, renowned for being one of the most resistant in the world. Available in black or brown now in Levi’s stores and online.
