El Naturalista 'Cork Oak'

Corktherapy:

Polyurethane cork insole made of recycled materials, consisting of 15% recycled Polyurethane and 15% cork residue shavings. Furthermore our insole includes a wet-white split leather which brings about higher respect towards the environment due to its minimum chrome content. These materials provide high comfort thanks to their unique and special features.

What can we say that hasn't already been said. We LOVE this brand. El Naturalista uses eco-friendly vegetable tanned leather which eliminates the use of chrome tanning and implements partially recycled rubbers and recycled materials for their boxes. Owned and operated from Spain, these Spaniards know how to design a shoe both comfortable and earth friendly! 

El Naturalista 'Sassi'

Environmentally cute and sassy: 

90% Vegetable tanned leather stream

Stream leather is tanned using vegetable extracts and ground tree bark. In order to fully take in its qualities, it has been churned non-stop for several weeks inside a special cylinder. It is greased in a slow and delicate process, by expert hands in an entirely artisan fashion, using natural animal fat and olive and sunflower oils. Once it is dry, the outer coat of the leather is minutely impregnated with olive oil. This operation provides the shoes with an exclusive finish that naturally protects them from water, dirt, and the passage of time. When the weather is cold, you will find your shoes to be covered by fine white film: this is our best guarantee of quality. Proof that they are prepared for life.

EL Naturalista 'Senda'

Anatomic insoles:

These anatomically-designed insoles are made from recycled cork. Their shape is simple yet extremely important: they fit the contours of the foot like a glove. The distribution of weight over the sole of the foot while walking is thus optimal, with the insoles absorbing impacts and preventing damage to sensitive areas. In other words, every footstep is a pleasure!

NEW! BOULET'Engineer' BOOTS

A little company history: In 1933 Georges-Alidor Boulet, who had previously worked for a men’s shoe factory, established “G.A Boulet Inc.” in the town of St-Tite, QC., Canada. This small town of only four thousand people was known for the quality of its labour and was often called “The Leather Town” for its production of various products made of first quality leather. During the Second World War, due to the quality of its production and AAA quote from the Canadian government, Boulet was commissioned by the army to produce all military footwear.
In the early 1960's the second generation of Boulet’s: Roger, Reynald, and Robert who had been working at the company since they were kids, took over the management of the company. Today Boulet Inc., who was the first company to produce cowboy boots in Canada, remains specialized 100% in Goodyear Welt construction. It is still the largest cowboy boot factory in Canada with one of the biggest selections on the market.  Now managed by the third generation: Pierre, Guy and Louis, they have maintained the tradition of excellence which makes Boulet one of the best in the country. Boulet cowboy boots are currently sold in over fifteen countries and are known by cowboys around the world for their durability, comfort, and being first in fit.
