In this lace-up ankle boot in the style of a hiking boot, supple, vegetable-tanned Wernebi nappa leather meets a loden lining made of pure wool - warming and temperature-regulating. The hides used for the Wernebi Nappa come exclusively from Alpine cattle, which are reared in the vicinity of the tannery under controlled organic conditions. Due to the short distances involved, the otherwise often necessary intermediate preservation before tanning can be dispensed with. After the purely vegetable tanning process, no further surface treatment is applied - which protects the environment and emphasizes the natural character of the leather. The lacing runs through seven pairs of metal eyelets, which allows the shoe to be adjusted to the individual shape of the foot. A zipper on the inside makes it easy to put on and take off. The leather insole is removable and can be replaced with your own insoles if required. And thanks to the strong tread sole, the shoe offers good insulation against the cold ground and a secure grip on the terrain - a shoe that not only accompanies you reliably through everyday life, but also on long winter walks and hikes.Werner Shoes. With a Proven Fit. Comfortable to Wear. Two aspects characterise Werner shoes: natural leathers – if in any way possible chrome-free and vegetable tanned – and a comfortable feel thanks to tried and tested fittings. The family business founded in 1911 is, after all, still in line with its traditional claim to produce beautiful and good shoes. What once began with sturdy work and hiking boots developed into a range comprising chic après-ski boots in the 1970s and 80s and progressed up to the current collection of (casual) shoes for men and women, some sporty, some rather elegant. Werner also actively follows new developments in the leather market. For instance, some shoes feature a lining made of olive leather®. In the tannery, they use olive leaves (residues that accumulate during the annual pruning of the trees), the resulting leather is very skin-friendly. For many years, Werner shoes were made at the company’s founding place in Pirmasens. Today the “quilters” and “nippers” work in south-eastern Europe. The raw materials come from Germany and the neighbouring European countries –in unvaryingly guaranteed high quality –, keeping transport distances as short as possible.General product information Women's lace-up ankle boot, Beige | Manufactum
