Traditional footwear maker Diemme works together with Los Angeles-baed fashion label Advisory Board Crystals on a dynamic pair of hiking boots. The handcrafted shoes are adorned with gemstones and it is showcased through the small windows that are peaking through the textural leather body of the boot's upper.
The silhouette is highlighted by the colorful opal gemstones that are lined on the sides of the shoes. The shoes are now available to shop and it is a shimmering addition to outdoor adventures. Other details are true to a rugged pair of hiking boots with hairy suede in a neutral tone, a thick lugged sole unit, and silver metal lace hooks to keep it all in place.
