Lucent - Zip Ankle Boot in Gold Leather on Gum Outsole

The problem with side zips is they can be hard on high arches. It was a challenge we had been ruminating on with Lunar Boots from AW21. How can we make a boot silhouette like this even more accessible to even more feet? This was the beginning thinking for Lucent. Clean side facings and a centre pulled metal teeth zip means the upper fits a wider style of foot shapes. Plus. It just looks intentionally punk rock. Gonna get things done in these boots. Especially in a gold that even Bowie would be proud of.

We love the proportions of this boot which slim the ankle and define the foot in a really sophisticated way. Made from gum rubber this outsole has natural spring for all day comfort, is deceptively light and extremely durable and frankly we are really proud of this one! We love the way the outsole adds a bit of height and drama the way a heel can whilst still remaining entirely wearable. 

A classic silhouette for us, the new Lucent Boot is slim-fitting, above the ankle and a whole lot of amazingness! The boot will sit snuggly over the foot with te center zip panel flattering the feet. More heavily lined and faced than Lunar boots, the leather will soften over time. Orthotic friendly and features removable innersole so you can change them over easily to your own if you need to. Length is true to fit.

Supple mid-toned, high shine leather that features a grained handle. The uppers are also lined in cream leather meaning they are a more structured finish than our stretch Lunar Boot silhouette. Set over a Gum coloured rubber flatform unit for a modern accent and radical wearability.

This is a leather upper / lined product so like all leather shoes will have around 8 - 10% stretch on wearing depending on the amount of pressure applied to the upper.

There's the obvious choices, tucked under denims paired with oversized knits and coats, but actually we also love to play off the utility themes of these boots with contrasting feminine dress details and coloured socks peeking out the top. For the weekends we also enjoy mixing the look with a bit of intentional luxe grunge with an oversized long line skirt and vintage printed sweat. As always it's about the juxtaposition of something quite feminine up top to play up to the more masculine lines of this shoe. Radical and Yes!

This is high quality leather upper so it does need care. 

Leather is a wonderful material, breathable, durable and beautiful. But without a bit of love it can dry out and deteriorate.

For optimum care, we recommend and sell "Waproo Waterproofer" to protect them from unexpected showers. We recommend spraying monthly on the Full Moon and can send you a reminder if you sign up to our newsletter here.

Polish your leather shoes around once a month and clean when necessary with a leather conditioner and soft rag to remove any dirt accumulated on your travels.
