London-based designer Kiko Kostadinov released his latest footwear called the Tonkin Boots, which comes in new black and dune colorways. The Tonkin Boots are a part of Kiko Kostadinov’s Spring/Summer 2023 collection.

The design of the Tonkin Boots consists of uppers made of Bovine leather with a smooth, high-gloss touch. As for the main feature, the extended rubber sole of the boots comes to the midsole and displays a wavy cut-out design with oval traction grip mechanisms. The boots also have rounded toe boxes with square indentations that change the distinction of their assembly. Additionally, the double-layered lacing system comes with a tumbled leather design. There are also rear pull tabs hidden behind tinted textile liners. The boots are available for purchase for $650.
