“Cute boots!” I’ve heard this sentiment more times than I can count. El Naturailsta boots are naturally chic. The El Naturalista N745 boot from Spain is the perfect stylish winter boot. They are resilient, adaptable and versatile, allowing you to easily change up your look. The boots are just loose enough on the calf to pair perfectly with tights or skinny jeans. Yet, streamlined enough to wear under a pair of boot cut jeans. They are stylish and comfortable, well made and eco-conscious.
The frog accent on the zippers is adorable while the bow accent keeps them feminine and flirty. The heel keeps them stylish and modern and the thick sole keeps you feeling safe and secure on snow and ice. The brown suede is luxurious with lovely stitching details, and each of the six available colors has its own personality.
The secret of the unique finish of their products is working the leathers by hand and introducing semi-vegetable tanning processes wherever possible. The Spanish company uses as many natural products as possible and maximizes the use of biodegradable and recyclable/recycled materials. As evident by their Eco Policy, they are serious about the planet, and I am seriously loving their products!
Based in Pamplona, Spain, El Naturalista was founded in 2002 by Pablo de la Peña who is still the company’s general manager. He had a concept: he wanted to create a global shoe brand inspired by nature, comfortable and still fashionable. The final product offers young footwear, comfortable and in accordance with the values of nature as well as with its own values. El Naturalista is available in 34 countries including stores in Taipei, Berlin and Helsinki. More at: http://www.elnaturalista.com/.
