The first thing that comes to mind when we think of R.M. Williams is: Fuck yes! The Australian brand goes back to 1932 and it oozes legacy. Every boot is made by hand from one single piece of leather. Based on daily life in the outback, the shoes developed over time. The boxed toe of the shoe, the lack of laces, the fact that you can easily wiggle your foot out of the shoe are all features that were developed for safety for those who wore the shoes on the job.
Over time the workwear developed from riding boots to refined women’s shoes. Nevertheless, the quality, craft and design are refined but in its essence untouched.
Every shoe has a Good Year Welt which means that a cobbler can take it out and replace it when it needs to be replaced. R.M. Williams challenges you to destroy their shoes, because you can’t, and they want to see the look on your face when you realize that.
