Lapstone & Hammer and Fracap joined forces in crafting a four-piece boot collection to tackle harsh winter weather. The Philadelphia retailer and Italian boot label have worked together once before, but this time, they introduced re-imagined versions of the M120 boots, M130 boots and the high-cut Z525 boots. Every piece is [handmade in Italy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acne-studios-x-timberland), with intricate details and materials.

The M120 is the classic Magnifico boot, available in olive suede or vegetable-tanned leather, and is crated with a calfskin lining, lamb fur, and a [ripple sole](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vibram-mash-field-boot-gtx). The M130 boots are made with calfskin leather and lined with lamb fur as well, with an "Italian wet" finish. The high-cut Z525 is available in gray suede with a 'Vibram Albany' sole. All boots of the second Lapstone & Hammer and Fracap collaboration will be exclusively available on Lapstone & Hammer's website and at the 1106 Chestnut St location in Philadelphia.
