Bespoke Leather Boots

Heimdall Creates Made-to-Order and RTW Traditional Handmade Leather Boots

— August 1, 2017 — Fashion
Heimdall introduces classic traditional handmade leather boots from Indonesia. Using a hand welted construction technique, it passionately dedicates itself to the crafting of shoes and boots that evokes the spirit of fine craftsmanship.

The brand name is based from the ancient Norse mythology god, as Heimdall is unwaveringly dutiful, with attention to detail and watchfulness. The brand's spirit also emphasizes the philosophy of Hagalaz, which mean swiftness and constant change by discipline of experimentation.

The whole manufacturing process is taken from long years of tradition for generations by a local shoemaker who creates everything by their own hand -- works of art that emphasize craftsmanship and quality.

Heimdall's footwear is designed to deliver the value of strength, durability and elegance. Each product is proven to be suitable for formal occasions, yet versatile enough for urban life. The brand's products are available in ready-to-wear stocks and premium, made-to-order options.
