Step into history with our extraordinary men's hiking boots, inspired by the legendary Russian reindeer leather. Meticulously crafted from premium cowhide, each boot is hand-embossed to replicate the distinctive look of the famed leather recovered from the sunken Metta Catharina.
Key Features:
These boots pay homage to the exceptional Russian reindeer hides discovered in the Metta Catharina wreck, preserved for nearly two centuries beneath the sea. While using modern cowhide, our artisans have captured the essence of these historic leathers, known for their unique preparation and outstanding qualities.
