Luxury menswear label Thom Browne returns for the season with a set of the signature Longwing Boot model, designed from an angel that drives the brand's standout sartorial approach. The boots arrive in two colorway options, with the selection of either navy blue or green.
It boasts a construction that blends to ripstop nylon, pebble grain leather, and waxed canvas materials. The ballistic nylon fabrication can be found at the collars before being detailed with short grosgrain at the heel's pull tab. The black leather materials make up the tongue as well as the eyelet panels before the RWB webbing details the sides. The canvas uppers are contrasted with leather mudguards traveling around the toe cap throughout the heel area. The boots are rounded out with a durable midsole held by tonal stitching.
